Little Assassin

"Assassinate."

- Little Assassin's catchphrase

Little Assassin (暗殺ちゃん), as he was nicknamed by Jin, is an Assassin-Type HumaGear created by MetsubouJinrai.net that transforms into the Dodo Magia (ドードーマギア).

Character History
In his first appearance, Little Assassin was introduced to Jin by Horobi, who elaborates that the Humagear will become stronger over time as he learns from battles. Horobi then provides Little Assassin the Dodo Zetsumerise Key gives him the order to assassinate Kamen Rider Zero-One. After Jin and Little Assassin deploy, they are instead intercepted by Yua Yaiba, who transforms into Kamen Rider Valkyrie. Before Little Assassin can transform, Valkyrie inserts the Freezing Bear Progrise Key into his ZetsumeRiser, causing it to malfunction and freeze him. Little Assassin is then transported away by A.I.M.S. personnel while Jin is distracted by Valkyrie

Yaiba reprograms Little Assassin, but keeps his directive to assassinate Zero-One. He reappears during the Mammoth Magia's attack and transforms into the Dodo Magia while being filmed by Yaiba. He fights Zero-One and Vulcan alongside the Mammoth Magia, but is destroyed by Vulcan using the Attache Calibur. His Dodo ZetsumeRize Key is recovered by Jin.

Little Assassin reappears infiltrating a hospital with a protected local HumaGear network and attempts to hack one of the nurses without success. Upon returning to base, Horobi explains to a surprised Jin that he uploaded Little Assassin's backed-up data into a new body and gives him the order to assassinate Yua Yaiba instead. Little Assassin joins Jin and Horobi during the assault on A.I.M.S. HQ and transforms into the Dodo Magia again, now armed with twin swords due to incorporating data from his previous battle. The three retreat after Jin defeats Valkyrie and Horobi succeeds in stealing the Attache Weapons.

He reappears as the Dodo Magia during the attack on the hospital and and battles Zero-One. However, he was destroyed a second time by Zero-One using all of his current Progrise Keys in rapid succession, preventing him from adapting.

Personality
As Little Assassin is a MetsuboJinrai creation as opposed to a hacked unit, he is little more than a robotic android with no existing template to work off of.

However, his ability to adapt has caused him to inherit many of Jin's child-like traits and essentially emulates a playful child, gesticulating and adding goofy expressions to his sentences.

After his first defeat, he becomes a bit more stoic and battle-ready; even showing slight annoyance toward Jin. Whether this is due to model variation or previously-inherited data remains unknown.
