Phantom Troupe

The nihongo|Phantom Troupe|幻影旅団|Genei Ryodan, or Phantom Brigade, is the name for a gang of thieves, from the anime and manga series Hunter × Hunter.

The group consists of a total of 13 members, each with a numbered tattoo of a spider on their body. Those wishing to join the group can do so by killing a member, thereby replacing them. If a vacancy opens due to a member dying of other causes, the leader of the group, Chrollo Lucilfer, is responsible for finding a replacement member. Although they mainly steal and kill, they occasionally do philanthropic work.

Bonolenov (ボノレノフ "Bonorenofu") dresses partially in bandages and looks like a mummy. These bandages cover up a mass number of holes throughout his body. During the chimera ant arc, he was seen fighting with the rest of the Phantom Troupe against the chimera ants. Very little is known about his personality and reasons for joining the Troupe, but in the fight with the chimera ants he displays a mocking and confident attitude. His physical power ranks eighth among the Troupecite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 10|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 084|pages=Pg.26|isbn=978-1-4215-0645-6] , and he's the thirteenth Troupe member.

Bonolenov is a descendant of the Gyudondond, a small wild tribe that was chased out of their lands by development. When males of the Gyudondond tribe reach the age of three, they are circumcized and needles are inserted in various parts of their body. Over time, these needles are replaced with thicker and thicker sticks, and the holes are stabilized with bamboo stalks or stones. Using these holes, Gyudondond males are able to create a variety of sounds. They are called "Bap," the dancing warriors, and fulfill the role of shamans and performers in their tribe. Before combat, they use their bodies to play songs of battle. The Gyudondond believe that the more beautiful a sound that is played, the greater the spirit it can summon. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 22|year=2008|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 225|pages=Pg.29|isbn=978-1-4215-1789-6]
*Nen Ability: Battle Cantabile (バト＝レ・カンタービレ「戦闘演武曲」), "lit." "War Anthem" [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 22|year=2008|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 225|pages=Pg.30|isbn=978-1-4215-1789-6] Bonolenov plays music through the holes on his skin during battle, with different songs creating different Nen effects, such as the transformation of his own body or the conjuration of objects. Two different effects of his ability have been shown: the Prologue and the Jupiter. The Prologue allows him to conjure warrior gear onto his body, along with a spear. The Jupiter phase allows him to conjure a giant boulder (with the appearance of the planet of Jupiter) and crush his enemies.-

Feitan (フェイタン) is attired in what one would expect from a bandit-- dark clothes partnered with a skullhead scarf that covers his mouth. Feitan seldom speaks, but when he does, usually there is a word missing. Feitan's first language most likely isn't Japanese, but he has shown to be rather proficient in the Chinese language. He is one of the original members hailing from Meteor City. After Feitan's victory over Zazan in Meteor City, he has been granted temporary control over the Phantom Troupe.

Feitan is an assassin down to his core, and is quite skilled at his profession. His movement is incredibly fast; Feitan is able to leave afterimages of his body due to his rapid steps. He wields an umbrella that conceals both a sword and a gun that can fire at the metal tip for a surprise attack. Feitan is the fifth strongest in physical power of the Troupe.
*Nen Ability: Pain Packer (パインパッカー「許されさる者」), "lit." "Unforgiven"Pain Packer allows Feitan first to use his aura to conjure a protective armor. Then, all of the damage that he has received in battle is converted into scorching heat ("Burnt by the Sun" Rising Sun) and is emitted into the air. The emitted aura transmutes into a miniature sun that burns the victim to death. Rising Sun has a very large attack radius, and while Feitan is within his armor he will not be harmed by the fire.

nihongo|Franklin|フランクリン|Furankurin has the appearance of a hulking, Frankensteinian monster, complete with scars and sewn-up wounds that ravage his face. It does seem though, that beneath his harsh exterior lies a small, caring spot in his character, as Franklin acts as a care-giver to Shizuku and shows concern for her well-being. He is also composed and respectful, normally breaking up arguments and fights within the organization. At the same time, Franklin is not "soft"; he never hesitates to kill, even reveling in combat, and is never hesitant when in difficult situations. Franklin ranks fourth in physical power among the Troupe, and he is among the original members hailing from Meteor City.
*Nen Ability: Dual Machine Gun (ダブルマシンガン「俺の両手は機関銃」), "lit." "Ambidextrous Autonomous Weapons" [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 08|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 073|pages=Pg.189|isbn=978-1-4215-0643-2] Franklin is able to detach the tips of his fingers and fire nen out as bullets. There was no need for Franklin remove the tips surgically, but doing so showed a mental commitment that greatly enhanced the force of his bullets. This ability has the power to wipe out a room full of people within seconds.

Hisoka

Kalluto

Kalluto is a new member who replaced Hisoka after his "defection". His purpose for joining the group is to find another brother Alluka.

Kortopi

Very little is known about Kortopi (コルトピ "Korutopi"). Exceptionally short in stature, he also has a thick and messy mane of green hair covering his entire head, obscuring everything except for an occasional glimpse of his left eyeball. He is the weakest in the Troupe in terms of raw physical power.
*Nen Ability: Gallery Fake (ギャラリーフェイク「神の左手悪魔の右手」), "lit." "Divine Left Hand, Demonic Right Hand"' [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 11|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 100|pages=Pg.139|isbn=978-1-4215-0646-3]

When Kortopi touches an object with his left hand, his nen ability allows him to make an exact replica of that object with his right hand. He cannot replicate living things except as inanimate objects, and Kortopi is also unable to replicate another user's nen. The replicas that he creates vanish after 24 hours, regardless of their size. However, before their disappearance, Kortopi is able to track the movements of any copied object if he can touch the original.cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 11|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 103|pages=Pg.185|isbn=978-1-4215-0646-3] -

Machi

Machi (マチ "Machi") seems to be one of the coldest members of the Phantom Troupe. Hisoka seems to have an occasional interest with her, although it's hard to see whether it's genuine, given Hisoka's unpredictability. She is incredibly loyal to Chrollo, and is one of the original Phantom Troupe members from Meteor City. Physically, she is the strongest woman in the Troupe and the sixth strongest overall.
*Nen Ability: nihongo|Nen Threads|念糸|Nen Shi [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 07|year=1999|publisher=Shueisha|chapter=Chapter 055|pages=Pg.11|isbn=978-4-08-872788-2] Machi spins her aura into threads in which she uses in a variety of ways, including seaming together dislodged limbs [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 07|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 055|pages=Pg.10-14|isbn=978-1-4215-0332-5] , attaching strands to people in order to track their movement [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 09|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 077|pages=Pg.67|isbn=978-1-4215-0644-9] , and as a weapon. Her thread's strength is inversely proportional to the length. The strength of each aura thread is inversely proportional to its length; strands smaller than a millimeter can support up to one-ton in weight. Through the use of "In", Machi also has the ability to make her strands invisible.

Nobunaga Hazama

Nobunaga (ノブナガ=ハザマ "Nobunaga Hazama") has the appearance similar to the ronin warriors in Edo period Japan, complete with a long katana that he uses with great finesse and skill. Nobunaga specializes in combining nen with the use of his katana in executing enemies. His best friend is Uvogin, and the two bring out the best in each other during combat. Seeing some of Uvogin's personality in Gon, he expressed interest in having Gon join the Troupe, though Gon adamantly refused. Nobunaga ranks ninth in physical power among the Troupe, and is one of the original members from Meteor City.

*Nen Ability: EnNobunaga supplements his sword fighting skills with the use of the advanced Nen technique En, which he can extend up to 4 meters (about 13 feet 1 inch). [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 11|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 094|pages=Pg.17|isbn=978-1-4215-0646-3] Using this ability, Nobunaga can instantaneously attack any opponent that enters his detection radius, even if he is not able to see them.

Pakunoda

Pakunoda (パクノダ "Pakunoda") exudes an air of self-confidence that can be intimidating to others. Pakunoda is fully loyal to Chrollo, and even goes against the Phantom Troupe in order to help him. She is killed by Kurapika's Judgement Chain in the climax of the Phantom Troupe arc. This is because she uses her memory bullets to tell other members of the Troupe about what happened to Chrollo, which violated the restrictions Kurapika placed upon her. Pakunoda is one of the original Phantom Troupe from Meteor City. Her physical strength is 11th in the Troupe.
*Nen Ability:Pakunoda is able to read the conscious thoughts of any person she is in physical contact with (an ability known as psychometry) and can extract memories by asking specific questions. Attempting to create false information is impossible, since Pakunoda can extract her target's purest memories. The information she collects is highly useful in exposing weaknesses and secrets, especially in finding out the opponent's nen ability or in situations requiring some form of extortion or blackmail. Pakunoda's ability can also be used to see the recent past of an object. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 12|year=2007|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 114|pages=Pg.156|isbn=978-1-4215-0647-0]
*Nen Ability: Memory Bomb (メモリーボム「記憶弾」), "lit." "Memory Bullet"cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 12|year=2007|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 112|pages=Pg.126|isbn=978-1-4215-0647-0] Pakunoda also has the ability to share her memories by shooting them into another person's head using a revolver and conjured nen bullets called "Memory Bombs". This is not a combat ability, and does no damage. If she shoots a Memory Bomb into the person from whom the memories were read, those memories are erased permanently.

Phinks (フィンクス "Finkusu") is a genius when it comes to unarmed combat. Phinks uses his hands in battle, which has been shown to be extremely powerful. He is rather brash and have a tendency to get into conflicts with other people. Phinks is one of the Phantom Troupe members that originated from Meteor City. He first appears in an Egyptian Suit but later changed into jogging suit. Phinks seems to get along best with Feitan, and is almost always seen partnered with him both in and out of combat. In terms of physical strength, Phinks is ranked second among the Troupe members.
*Nen Ability: Ripper Cyclotron (リッパー・サイクロトロン「廻天」), "lit." "Heavenly Rotation" [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 22|year=2008|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 226|pages=Pg.51|isbn=978-4-08-873792-8] Phinks' ability involves how many times he rotates his arm. The more rotations that he does with his arm, the stronger his blow will become.

halnark

Member number 9 of the Troupe. From his appearance, nihongo|Shalnark|シャルナーク|Sharunāku seems to be a normal boy. However, Shalnark is one of the most intelligent and quick-thinking members in the group--he's adept at using computers, information gathering, and providing the brains behind the brawn. Shalnark is also a licensed Hunter, so he has access to certain information that could be potentially useful in the Phantom Troupe. Shalnark ranks tenth in physical power among the Troupe.
*Nen Ability: Black Voice (ブラックボイス「携帯する他人の運命」), "lit." "Mobile Fate Director" [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 11|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 098|pages=Pg.87|isbn=978-1-4215-0646-3] Shalnark is able to completely control the actions of any person he has targeted, as long as he's placed a special antenna on them and that person is not being controlled by another. This is done via a cell phone interface in which he remotely controls his target from a distance, while pointing the cell phone at the antenna planted on the victim.
*Nen Ability: nihongo|Autopilot|自動操作|Shi Dousou Sa [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 22|year=2008|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 227|pages=Pg.61|isbn=978-1-4215-1789-6] By placing an antenna on himself and then giving instructions or a task to be performed by him (along the lines of nen-based self-hypnosis), Shalnark can enter Autopilot and temporarily gain immense strength to perform the task given. Once Shalnark has entered Autopilot, he cannot withdraw from it until the task he instructed himself has been accomplished. After leaving Autopilot, Shalnark experiences intense muscle pain for two or three days. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 22|year=2008|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 227|pages=Pg.63|isbn=978-1-4215-1789-6] He also does not retain any memory of what happened while in Autopilot.

hizuku

Shizuku (シズク "Shizuku") is extremely forgetful. If she forgets something, she will never remember it no matter how others may try to remind her [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 10|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 091|pages=Pg.153|isbn=978-1-4215-0645-6] . She can be an airhead at times which, along with her unassuming appearance, can cause her opponents to underestimate her combat abilities. Shizuku is also left-handed [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 08|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 072|pages=Pg.174|isbn=978-1-4215-0643-2] , and the twelfth physically strongest out of the 13 members of the Troupe. Shizuku is the eighth member in the Phantom Troupe, a replacement for the last member since the Troupe came together.
*Nen Ability: Blinky ("Deme-chan" in the Japanese version)Shizuku uses her nen to conjure a vacuum cleaner, Blinky, able to suck up any non-living object. This has proven very useful in many occasions for cleaning up evidence that the members leave behind during a job, namely corpses. Objects made from Nen also cannot be consumed. In combat, Shizuku can also use the vacuum as a club. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 08|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 073|pages=Pg.192|isbn=978-1-4215-0643-2] No object consumed by Blinky can be retrieved except for the very last object sucked in. No one knows where the sucked up items go, not even Shizuku herself.-

Uvogin

Uvogin (ウボォーギン "Ubōgin") is one of the original members of the Troupe from the Meteor City. Out of all of the Phantom Troupe, he is the strongest in terms of raw physical power. Uvogin is so strong, direct hits from bullets, sniper bullets, and even anti-tank rockets will do no visible damage to him. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 09|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 075|pages=Pg.30|isbn=978-1-4215-0644-9] Like all of the Troupe, Uvogin never hesitates to kill and particularly enjoys combat against skilled opponents. Although he prefers to fight alone, Uvogin becomes stronger when fighting with a partner because he fights better when there is someone else to protect (although he would never admit this). [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 10|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 093|pages=Pg.186|isbn=978-1-4215-0645-6]

Death:Seeking revenge on Kurapika for capturing him after his battle with the Shadow Beasts, Uvogin tracked Kurapika to the hotel where Neon Nostrade and the rest of her bodyguards were staying. They fought one-on-one in a small canyon on the outskirts of Yorknew City. Kurapika eventually captures Uvogin with his Chain Jail, and questions him about the location and abilities of the other Phantom Troupe members. Uvogin refuses to answer any questions, only telling Kurapika, "Kill me." Finally, Kurapika pierced Uvogin's chest with the Judgement Chain ability, giving Uvogin the condition that he must answer all questions truthfully. Kurapika once again asks Uvogin the location of the other Troupe members, to which Uvogin only smiles and calls Kurapika an idiot. Kurapika's Judgement Chain pierces Uvogin's heart, instantly killing him. Uvogin is buried in an unmarked grave at the site of their battle. He was formerly the eleventh member of the Troupe.
*Nen Ability: Big Bang Impact (ビックバンインパクト「超破壊拳」), "lit." "Super Destruction Fist" [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 09|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 076|pages=Pg.45|isbn=978-1-4215-0644-9] Uvogin's favorite ability is his "Big Bang Impact". Though it is little more than a punch pumped up with his aura [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 09|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 076|pages=Pg.47|isbn=978-1-4215-0644-9] , it is extremely powerful due to Uvogin's mastery of Enhancement Nen. The impact can create a large crater several meters in width and depth, and packs the force of a small missile. [cite book|last=Togashi|first=Yoshihiro|authorlink=Yoshihiro Togashi|title=Hunter × Hunter, Volume 09|year=2006|publisher=Viz Media|chapter=Chapter 076|pages=Pg.45|isbn=978-1-4215-0644-9] His goal was to make the Big Bang Impact as powerful as a nuclear bomb.
