This guy doesn't fight via his own power; he has an army of Perverse Puppets—that he controls via strings, magic, or advanced technology—to do it for him. Particularly sadistic ones can also make People Puppets. See also Evil Puppeteer. A Subtrope of Art Attacker and The Minion Master. May overlap with Robot Master or Wicked Toymaker. Compare & contrast Puppeteer Parasite. See also Marionette Motion. Not to be confused with Puppet Fighter, a metaphor to describe a certain type of gameplay. |

The World Ends with You's Shiki Misaki has her stuffed cat, Mr. Mew. Seeing as they're in a world where some people can shoot fireballs or drop vending machines on their enemies, her partner (and the Main Character) Neku finds this... rather underwhelming. Shiki defends herself by saying that Mr Mew was the only thing that worked and he "sort of does his own thing". Neku comes around to it later on, including the two of them having a combo attack where Mr Mew grows to a giant size to devastate the monsters they fight. | |

The Hollow Numb Chandelier in Bleach has this as her main power, using the virus to make People Puppets out of Orihime's friends. Ditto one of the Bounts, Mabashi, who takes over Rukia's body; Orihime restores Rukia's sanity by hugging and then activating her powers. Also, the Septima Espada Zommari Rureaux. His ability Amor allows him to control body parts of other people with one of his many eyes. If it's the head, it allows him to control the entire body even when they are unconscious. |

The Hidden Sand Village from Naruto is renowned for its ninja puppeteers, who typically use puppets full of hidden weaponry, including poison; unlike most examples, said puppeteers, including Kankuro and Chiyo, are actually fairly heroic (eventually, anyways). However, the Hidden Sand's greatest puppeteer, Sasori of the Red Sand, is an outright villain who can turn his victims into puppets that still possess any powers they had while alive. | |

The now obscure General Jumbo and his Pocket Army, appearing in The Beano between 1953 to 1974, was another heroic example. Unusually, the forces at his command extended to full air and artillery support as well as a variety of vehicles for several thousand Small Soldiers-style infantry bots, and a lot of the weapons involved were explicitly capable of inflicting lethal harm. | |

Homestuck: Dave's Bro may or may not have been this with his favourite puppet, Lil' Cal. On one hand, he was capable of flashstepping so fast that he could have been making it look like Lil' Cal was moving of his own accord, and initially that's what appears to be happening. On the other hand, there's plenty of evidence and testimony throughout the story that Lil' Cal actually is alive and capable of autonomous movement. We simply can't know for certain, and that makes it all the more terrifying a thought... Dirk Strider, Bro's alternate universe equivalent, also counts. He holds a puppetkind strife specibus and can use Cal in combat, though he seldom does. Instead, in a less-literal take on the trope, Dirk builds robots and A.I.s that do battle for him. |

The Scourge Warlock class from Neverwinter has the ability to create "Soul Puppets" when they use certain powers on their enemy's. They fade pretty fast, meaning you have to make another one to replace it, unless you taker the Damnation skill tree to its capstone (which also comes with other nifty upgrades to the puppet). | |

Corona of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid is revealed in flashbacks to have doll manipulation as her main talent. After Vivio praised her for it, she trained and refined this skill to the point where she can now manipulate giant Golems in battle. She can also use it on herself to become a Ditto Fighter. Olivie Sägebrecht used a similar technique to control her artificial arms when she was alive. |

BlazBlue: Carl Clover is never seen without a giant marionette called Nirvana (which contains the soul of his sister Ada), which can be controlled by the player as he fights. Early on in Noel's Story Mode, an important question comes up: who's really pulling whose strings? Something of either a subversion or an inversion, depending on how you look at it. His father, Relius Clover, is also a puppeteer, the puppet in question being his wife Ignis. |

The DCU: Teen Titans foe the Puppeteer, has a huge array of puppets, all fashioned in different clothing. When at home the puppets would do chores for him such as cook his breakfast. Superman villain the Toyman usually uses an army of toys to do his fighting for him. Toyman's son Anton Schott a.k.a. the Doll Maker, is an enemy of Supergirl, who has an army of robotic dolls, as well as human sized robot dolls with children trapped inside as to make it harder for Supergirl to fight them. The Flash villain The Trickster, would sometimes do this. In the game DC Universe Online he can even be seen commanding robotic action figures of Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman to fight for him. Hawkman villain Toyboy (not to be confused with the Toyboy robot created by the original Toyman) uses telekinesis to control toys. Carny, a member of the Extremists in Convergence. Due to being an extremely loose Expy of Walt Disney and X-Men villain Arcade, he commands an army of It's a Small World esque robot dolls to fight for him. Firestorm villain Black Bison can bring to life any inanimate objects to fight for him. These can range from toys, amusement park animatronics, and even the statue of liberty. Batgirl villain Shauna Belzer uses telekinesis to control her puppet Ferdie. |

Touhou Project — Alice Margatroid's main specialty is her Doll Army, two of her most notable dolls being Shanghai and Hourai. She also has them help her do chores all over the house, even when she's not in the same room as them. The weird thing about it is that they aren't capable of independent action, so she's putting just as much if not more effort into micro-managing them than just doing the work herself. It also makes her habit of holding conversations with them all the more eccentric.' | |

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Otherworlder Alice Rondo has the ability to levitate and manipulate dolls. When first encountered by Rimuru, she did this with her trio of stuffed dolls for their practice bout, with Rimuru noting despite the cuteness her control is very good and these would be a lot more intimidating if they had claws or weapons attached. After her training, that's exactly what she did as now she controls dolls made of metal armed with various weapons. Demon Lord Clayman outright has the Red Baron "Marionette Master", and true to form his preferred combat style though not his only one is to use powerful puppets, often fueled with souls that grants them both increased powers as well as innate healing abilities to anything aside from soul-damaging attacks. His masterpiece is "Viola", a powerful multi-armed puppet with various magical attacks and tricks at its disposal. He can also uses curses to turn people into People Puppets via binding their bodies and/or minds. |

All over the place in Erfworld. Dollomancy, Croakamancy, and Decryption are all this trope through and through. Even the setting, where soldiers telepathically know their leader's wishes to some extent, counts. | |

Geppeto in Shadow Hearts: Covenant. He attacks by controlling his marionette Cornelia. His weapon is different types of puppet string (his Infinity +1 Sword is the Red String of Fate), and his elemental affinity is based on what dress Cornelia is wearing. His late daughter's soul is inhabiting Cornelia's body, raising the question of just how much Geppeto is actually in control of it. Fortunately, she was a good person in life. | |

Lime from Blue Reflection uses a teddy bear called Mr. Bear as her weapon. It can grow to giant size and shoot Eye Beams, or function as a Magic Wand for shooting fireballs. Oh, and her skillset and starting stats strongly favor her being an offense-focused character, meaning Mr. Bear is potentially the strongest weapon in the game. | |
