I swear I've mentioned this before... T_T<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Long ago, before the devastation of Konoha by the Nine-tailed Fox, the world was on the verge of collapse. Reeling from the First Great Shinobi World War, the five great nations were at a fragile peace. As if mirroring one another's misfortune, the villages of Konoha and Suna both appointed their <strong>third Kages</strong> during the war, and <strong>Kumo and Iwa's founders were also slain in the conflict.</strong> The island superpower Kirigakure, however, has been hailed as a beacon for peace. It still retains its <strong>second Mizukage.</strong><br/><br/>Tanigakure rests between the Lands of Fire and Wind, comfortable among the ravines of the Land of Rivers. In the last war, the Kawa Daimyo offered his support to the Third Hokage after the Second was killed and the entire Konoha army surrounded on both sides by Iwa and Kumo forces. Seizing the advantage of a weakened ally, this alliance cemented a partnership that lasts today.<br/><br/>It has not been without difficulty, however, as tensions between the two nations remain high, as they are all throughout the world.<strong> Fifteen years after the last great war</strong>, the villages have not forgotten their old animosities and will not so easily ignore the faintest sign of weakness.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The Fourth Hokage is probably still a genin. Kakashi isn't even born yet if I recall...<br/><br/>Also, this game with follows 'canon' as far as the timeline of events go. Given how far back this game is, that means a lot of freedom. However!<br/><br/>You, the PCs, are immune to 'canon'. If you do something that would fundamentally alter the events of, say, the anime or manga... it shall be done. For example, killing the fourth hokage while he's a kid. Don't know why you would do that, but if you did, I'd adjust accordingly.
