The Ninja By: Hanzo187 (Matt Sylvain)

CLASS TRAITS Role: Striker. You jump and move about, pecking away at your enemies as you go. When you can move, you are at your deadliest. Power Source: Ki. Through extensive training and meditation, you have become adept at controlling and utilizing spiritual energy, be it yours or your enemies’. Key Abilities: Dexterity, Wisdom, Intelligence Armor Proficiencies: Cloth, leather Weapon Proficiencies: Dagger, hand crossbow, short bow, short sword, shuriken, sickle Bonus to Defense: +2 Reflex Hit Points at 1st Level: 12 + Constitution score Hit Points per Level Gained: 5 Healing Surges per Day: 6 + Constitution modifier

“I am a leaf in the wind, a wraith in the air. You will not find me unless I wish to be found.”

Ninja Overview Characteristics: Where the rogue relies on combat advantage to deal damage, you rely on movement. Your ability to freely move about the battlefield allows you to unleash the full extent of your stealthy strike ability, in addition to the mystical advantages granted by the use of your ki. Religion: Ninja are not prone to religion, but those who embrace a deity usually associate with gods of mysticism, illusion, and sometimes death. Good and unaligned ninja tend towards Sehanine or Ioun. Evil ninja worship Vecna. Races: Elves make excellent rat ninja, their natural speed meshing well with their excellent perception. Eldarin are primarily scorpion ninja, with their disposition for knowledge coming in handy for precision offense. Humans make up the bulk of ninja, and function well in any form.

Trained Skills: Acrobatics and Stealth. From the class skill list below, choose four more trained skills at 1st level. Class Skills: Acrobatics (Dex), Athletics (Str), Bluff (Cha), Dungeoneering (Wis), Insight (Wis), Nature (Wis), Perception (Wis), Stealth (Dex), Streetwise (Cha), Thievery (Dex) The ninja are the warriors of mysticism and concealment. Sneaky, cunning, and quick, those who see the ninja do not live to tell the tale. Combining quick movement with amazing stealth, the ninja are adept at appearing suddenly, striking quickly, and fading away, into the night. Because you are a ninja, many people have a crude and sometimes narrow viewpoint of you. Many see you as an evil, remorseless assassin who kills by stealth. Others see you as a mystical thief who takes what he wishes when he wishes. In truth, the ninja are experts in guerilla warfare, sowing the seeds of confusion and deception to gain the advantage against their enemies. Your skill in unconventional combat requires you to be mobile, and your mastery of ki complements this. The ability to move quickly and strike suddenly are aspects of combat the ignorant could never hope to understand, and you would have it no other way. Your body is strong, your mind is clear, and your soul is at peace. Now, how will you use the power you are given? Will

you kill at your leisure, or perhaps serve a cause greater than yourself?

Creating a Ninja The rat ninja and scorpion ninja are your primary builds. The rat ninja uses instinct to augment his senses and skitter about the battlefield, while the scorpion ninja uses knowledge of anatomy and precision attacks to sting his enemies. Dexterity, Wisdom, and Intelligence are your most important scores.

Rat Ninja Instinct is your armor. Your skill at using your ki is better than other ninja, but manipulating the energy of others is more difficult. Dexterity is of the most use to you. Wisdom should be your second-highest score, with the way of the rat as your path. Powers that reward Wisdom are your targets, but some of the Intelligence-based powers are helpful options. Suggested Feat: Quick Blade (Human Feat: Human Perseverance) Suggested Skills: Acrobatics, Athletics, Insight, Perception, Stealth, Thievery Suggested At-Will Powers: anticipatory strike, ki blade Suggested Encounter Power: crescent blade Suggested Daily Power: flare jutsu

Scorpion Ninja You rely on your knowledge of anatomy, along with your natural skill for ki, and attack with calculated precision, striking chakra points to cause a variety of ailments. You require a high Dexterity for mobility. Since knowledge is your weapon, you need a high Intelligence score. Take the way of the scorpion path. It is best to take powers that use Intelligence, but it helps to take certain powers that use your Wisdom score. Suggested Feat: Reverse Grip (Human Feat: Action Surge) Suggested Skills: Acrobatics, Athletics, Bluff, Stealth, Steetwise, Thievery Suggested At-Will Powers: speedy slash, suigetsu strike Suggested Encounter Power: armpit strike Suggested Daily Power: spirit slash

Ninja Class Features All ninja share these class features.

Alchemical Mastery You gain Alchemist as a bonus feat. You may add your Intelligence modifier to attacks made when using poison and volatile alchemical items.

Ninjutsu Path All ninja follow ninjutsu (the art of concealing). Some sting their enemies with precise attacks, others may scurry about and use instinct to avoid danger, and others still may inflict pain through cold ferocity. Choose one of the following options. Way of the Scorpion: You may add your Intelligence modifier to opportunity attack rolls. Way of the Rat: As long as you are wearing cloth armor or no armor, you may add your Wisdom modifier to AC.

Stealthy Strike Once per round, when you move at least 2 squares from your original position and are wielding a weapon from the bow, crossbow, or light blade groups, you may deal extra damage to that foe. You decide whether to apply this extra after making the damage roll. As you advance in level, the damage increases.

Level 1st-10th 11th-20th 21st-30th

Stealthy Strike Damage +1d6 +2d6 +3d6

Ninja Powers Your ability to manipulate ki has given you the skill to unlock a variety of techniques. Some of these require knowledge of anatomy to control your enemies' ki and should be used with a high Intelligence score. Others still call upon your own spirit and become more potent with a high Wisdom score.

You have learned to become one with the earth and soar to the heavens at the same time. Prerequisites: 21st level, training in Insight or Perception You are a master of yourself, obtaining true understanding and knowledge of the universe. You are now at one with spirit, body, and mind, aware of the full extent of power you gain from each of these aspects of life. You are viewed as a being with incredible wisdom and vision. Some see you as a creature with the ability to see into others. Others view you as a demon who tries to unlock the darkness within a person’s soul. Yet others revere as a god in physical form. However, you are simply yourself, belonging to no one and everyone at the same time. With your skill, you can foresee an incoming doom for the world, and you can fight it, train others to do so, or perhaps do nothing, believing the future is an inevitable course of life and time. The ninja are most commonly enlightened masters, but clerics and paladins have shown an impressive capability for become enlightened masters, despite their devotion to patron gods.

You throw off the limits placed on the mind, body, and soul to become everything and nothing at the same time. After you attain complete enlightenment, the possibilities
