The NinjaBy: Hanzo187 (Matt Sylvain)

I am a leaf in the wind, a wraith in the air. You

will not find me unless I wish to be found.

Ninja OverviewCharacteristics: 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 areprimarily 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.

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 inunconventional 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 NinjaThe 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 usesknowledge of anatomy and precision attacks to sting his

enemies. Dexterity, Wisdom, and Intelligence are your most

important scores.

Rat NinjaInstinct 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.

Scorpion NinjaYou rely on your knowledge of anatomy, along with your

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 useIntelligence, but it helps to take certain powers that use your

Wisdom score.

Epic Destiny

Enlightened Master

You have achieved a clarity and understanding of the world aboutyou as only a grandmaster such as yourself could ever attain. 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 persons soul. Yet others revere as a god inphysical 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.

Immortality, or awareness?To you, becoming a legend or an immortal is not as

important as becoming greater than you are. While

immortality may have some to do with that, not all

enlightened master believe immortality leads to a

knowledge of all things.

The Knowledge of the Universe: When an enlightened

master completes his final task (a mission called a vision

quest by other enlightened masters), you finally attain a

complete understanding of the universe. 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

of what you can do are beyond the boundaries of thought

and even time. In an instant, you learn of incredible worlds,

streaming white shores, and endless infinity. One would call

this godhood. You would call it knowledge.

Enlightened Master Features

All Enlightened Masters have the following features:Supernatural Focus (21st level): When you take an

extended rest, you do not lose unspent action points. You

also gain 1 action point when taking an extended rest.

Open Mind (24st level): Everything is clear to you. Three

other prerequisites are met.
