Anyone trying to go into the alter-area for a rescue attempt will have to face 119 pounds of pure man Gokudera. He's dressed in the same ritualistic garb as the guards in the temple, his face is painted, his chest bare aside from some crude ritual necklaces, old scars, and some whip lashings he got from the guards (before they got fed up with him enough to brainwash him).

He simply stands and watches the corridor, hand on the hilt of a scimitar strapped to his belt. His eyes are glazed over but other than that he seems alert and very wary of his surroundings.]
