Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film informatics Part 07: Splinter


Splinter is a mutant rat, and the Turtles' "shidoshi" (teacher of the warrior ways of enlightenment).. He raises them into adolescent fighters to combat the Foot Clan and protect New York. Shredder is his nemesis and rival. Splinter has a special fondness for the arts, especially martial arts. He also digs the underground, since his rat-like abilities make him quite a burrower.
This mystical rat uses his cunning as well as his bow, sword cane and prehensile tail to thwart the evil Foot clan. Splinter trained the Turtles to fight for truth, justice, and an equal portion of food.
