FIVE STORM NINJA KIKONU

At the end of the characters stay in Ordan-Aganhei they are ambushed by a ninja during a parade (the ninja’s were hidden in the paper dragon). These ninja’s were lead by Kikonu (v3.0). Kikonu was supported by 8 five storm ninjas and an unlimited number of kenku ninja minions (see below). I also added a […]

Five Storm Ninja

At the end of the characters stay in Ordan-Aganhei they are ambushed by a ninja during a parade (the ninja’s were hidden in the paper dragon). These ninja’s were lead by Kikonu (v3.0).

The line in the sand is the ninja is more magical/supernatural while the shinobi is […]

FEAT: YAKUZA

This is a thematic feat for the rogue class. It fits in with the 1e Oriental Adventures description of a yakuza. However, the original yakuza class is not different enough from the default rogue to really be its own archetype. However, this will help make your rogue more flavourful. YAKUZA The yakuza is many different things, depending on who is asked. He has […]

ROGUISH ARCHETYPE: NINJA

The ninja class for 5e Oriental Adventures. You could argue that the assassin archetype fits the ninja quite well but historically the ninja was as much a spy as an assassin. I have used the assassin as the base archetype but added more spy and mystical type abilities to the ninja’s repertoire. NINJA Ninjas are the invisible warriors; spies and […]
