Okay, so the basic plot is that the world is pretty much in the crapper, and after a few hundred odd years of playing by the rules, various ninja clans have started to break them. It begins most obviously with an assassination attempt in Paris during a convening of the European Council to appoint a new Supreme Commander of the Eurocorps, de facto head of the EU.<br/><br/>Now, since everyone's been playing their hands a little close to their chests background-wise, I'm having some trouble incorporating the players into the plot I'm whipping up. :P So it'd be nice if I could get some more information on everyone to figure this out.<br/><br/>Kimera, you can find the rulebook (for free!) hyah. (http://www.narutod20.com/) But most puppeteers start out as Smart Heroes. Chakra no Ito, the technique related to all things puppety, requires both hands free but the Taijutsu Master class allows you to make unarmed attacks without the use of your hands. It requires a BaB of +3, so if you wanted to get all three classes as soon as possible, you could possibly go;<br/>Strong 3/Taijutsu Master 1/Puppeteer 1 (5 levels to spare)<br/>Fast OR Tough OR Dedicated 3/Puppeteer 2/Taijutsu Master 1 (4 levels to spare)<br/>Smart OR Charismatic 3/Puppeteer 3/Taijutsu Master 1 (3 levels to spare)<br/><br/>It all depends, Strong tends to be the 'Taijutsu Master' base class while Smart tends to be the 'Puppeteer' base class. I'm biased towards smart heroes because I luvs skill points but really with True Ninja rules, class skills are less important.<br/><br/>I made a technique awhile ago that allowed a puppeteer with Taijutsu Master levels to make an unarmed attack simultaneously as her puppets made slam attacks, a sort of puppet dance. Not sure if I can find it now, but...<br/><br/>Oh yeah, and if you need any ideas for the modern puppet components, I has that book. It includes things like machine gun components, hidden cameras, rocket fists, and... I kid you not, tanks and motorcycles that transform into puppets when animated. Although with a modern setting, there's a lot of fun to be had. ::) So what do you think?
