・Soldier Recruiter Decoy: Ookami Mio DLC (for Rangers)
Blow-up dolls created by the EDF Public Relations Department for recruitment purposes, which can now be used as combat decoys. They resemble popular idols and were previously used to recruit young people at PR events.
The dolls are designed to move by adjusting air pressure in specific parts of the body. They also contain speakers that allow them to talk, making them particularly effective against monsters that often cannot tell them apart from real soldiers. When activated, they play back a prerecorded recruitment speech and sing. Their song repertoire includes the official EDF song used in the recruitment commercials, although a variation of this song has been popularized among soldiers.
