I was planning on creating a character with the ninjutsu martial arts skill and with it taking the 2 point enemy flaw. I'm trying to create the ninja clan/cult for that flaw but being the lazy bum I am, I was wondering if there are any published material on any such organizations in the game? You know, any ready made groups complete with history, details, and maybe stats.


Thanks

Thanks fortune but I actually meant any SR published material either by FASA or FANPRO.

My bad for not specifying that :)

If you can find ninjas they are doing their job wrong...

You could always try the deadly drop bear ninjas.

I think the underworld sourcebook has a bit about ninja groups. I'm pretty sure its where the Oni Do first pop up.

The Oni Do btw are japanese metas (mostly orc and troll varients) that use the japanese belief that meta are demons to their advantage.

Yeah, I knew what you meant, but no thread about ninjas is complete without a link to that site. :)

Shadows of Asia gives a rather brief summary of three or four different ninja clans operating out of Japan. No stats, but a little bit of history.

One of them is largely composed of metahumans, one is renowned for the quality of the swordsmen it trains, and the other one.....I don't recall. I think they were "just" ninjas-I'd have to go look it up.

See, only effeminate anime-obsessed sissy men join ninja clans.

Real men take to the open seas and become pirates.

Don't be a sissy man and sign up under the nearest pirate captain near you!

I'd take that as you dont know of any SR materials regarding ninja cults. :)

Edit: Thanks BTW to Toturi and Fivevenoms... I think SoA isn't available in our local stores yet but I think can get hold of Underworld Sourcebook so I'll look there. Thanks again.

Or just make up a ninja group - unless you're planning on becoming a part of canon, it doesn't really matter.
