Some TMNT stuff really isn't for little kids.

Lita is a time-travelling ninja mutant turtle from the future in the IDW continuity.

History[]

After being bullied by a couple of fellow mutant children, Lita runs off, crying. Jennika gives her a pep talk, recounting the words of Splinter, who told her that she is ninja, and that this applies to Lita, too, and that he said "you are the future, and the future is limitless". Just then, a grown-up Lita appears outside the farmhouse with the Time Scepter. TMNT #105

Lita finally finds the Splinter Clan at the dōjō, bringing dire words of a future where the Splinter and Foot Clans clash, resulting in Jennika killing Karai and the rapid dissolution of Lita's family. She leads the Splinter Clan to where Karai's helicopter had crashed, and they rescue her, Koya, and Bludgeon from the wreckage and bring them back to the dōjō. TMNT #113

Appearance[]

Big Lita's physical appearance isn't much different to Little Lita's, except that she's now taller (for being grown up), being a little smaller than the turtles. Lita has many tattoos on her body, which are: pink flowers on her two arms with the yin-yang symbol (but with pink instead of black) and the Splinter Clan symbol on her front-shell.

She wears an outfit similar to the turtles' (mostly Jennika's), a top and trousers suitable for ninjutsu with the Splinter Clan symbol printed on the top. Instead of her old pink mask, she uses pink face paint on her head, forehead and eyes; she also wears a black scarf that covers her mouth.

Weapons and equipment[]

  • Time Scepter: As an assistant timestress, she possesses the Time Scepter. She used it to travel to the past and save her family from breaking and falling apart.
  • Tessen: As a Splinter Clan kunoichi, she's equipped with a pair of tessen.

Relationships a top and trousers suitable for ninjutsu[]

Splinter Clan[]

Lita was a member of the Splinter Clan until it fell apart following Karai's death. She sees the Clan as her family and addresses Donatello and Leonardo specifically as "dad".

Koya[]

Owing to Leonardo and Koya apparently being an item before his disappearance in her timeline, Lita addresses Koya as "Auntie", much to the falcon's bewilderment and disgust.

Renet[]

Lita was left alone with nobody else to turn to, and was taken in by Renet. Under her tutelage, Lita is an assistant timestress.
