Naruto d20 Meets Suicide Squad
Naruto Criminals Forced to Work for the Good of the Village. Dark and Gritty, but stylistically so. Fairly simple idea. Going to run a campaign of naruto d20 characters based around the idea of earning their right to return to the world. Probably based in mist village. I like the idea because I don't need to worry about people ditching. If they ditch, I'll just replace them with other ninja. No big deal. Also cool because it means I can run a fairly high campaign. The campaign will probably work like a frame narrative: individual missions rather than a combined story. I may even grab co-dms and run multiple groups at once eventually. Keep in mind this is just an interest thread at the moment. If I get enough interest I will change the formatting to reflect a more serious approach. All of the characters would be criminals under physical force to work for a specific village. Because of that it would probably be somewhat railroaded in form though the specifics might be less so. Think of it as you need to get from point A to B and how you get there is up to you. ~Chart of Applicants~

I've made a Q&A so that people can easily access information when and if more interest pops up. Cherub your questions have been answered there.

Oh, Rahz, you are my hero right now. I have been drooling for a Nd20 game for a few weeks now. I can't think of any questions at the moment that you haven't already answered.
You had my interest the moment it was an Nd20 game. Had it even more so when its taking place in Kirigakure since that's my favorite Sad as it is that it hasn't really been shown much like the other non-Konoha villages.village. Being a criminal makes my character ideas difficult to pick between a few I've been thinking over lately. I guess a question I could ask would be: Do our character have to be criminals? Would, say, a war criminal or foreign ninja captured in Water Country or perhaps even a village-less ninja seeking admission as a Kiri-ninja via the prison as a trial be acceptable? Right now I'm thinking between a Spacetime-Raiton preferenced Well-Rounded Ninja, Taijutsu Specialist and a My leading candidateGenjutsu Specialist. |

Hi Jigs. I made a general answer in the Q&A but I'll be more specific here.
__________________If you want to be a war criminal you can try that approach. However, you will have to deal with the following problems before I accept the character. This is mist we're talking about, so why didn't they just kill you outright? It would be somewhat understandable for you to be kept if the initiative program you players are taking place in had already been initiated. However, even then you would have to be able to explain why the village was comfortable sending you out again when your home village might recognize you. Either way you also need to be able to explain how they were able to cover up your disappearance from your village. You are level 7-10. Every village reclaims the bodies of their higher level ninja in order to preserve the secrets in those bodies. This was gone into in the show and I'm keeping it because it has lot's of plot potential. If you feel like working through these problems when writing your profile then I suppose you can. The seeking admission idea I am less crazy about. It just doesn't appeal to me and the thematic construct I had in mind for the game. Your mechanical ideas are all fine. Just go with the one you decide. |

That's totally cool. I just thought I'd ask about different possible avenues so that my character wouldn't be just another face in the crowd, not that there's anything wrong with that.
![]() If I come up with some idea to work around the aforementioned problems, is it cool if I PM them to you and see if I can't hammer them out while still fitting comfortably in what you expect the game to be? |

Quick questions that might be good to add to the Q&A, but probably not necessary until this goes from an Interest thread to an actual Application thread:
Sorry about the list, just thought they might be helpful later on and best gotten out of the way in one post than over several scattered posts. ^^;; On a side note, I think I've decided on which kind of character I want to go with and have begun thinking about how to go about their background. Also, I know of a friend that has likewise been itching for an Naruto d20 game, so you'll probably have at least one more post of interest.

Yeah, once I think I've gotten sufficient interest to actually put serious effort into this I will decide on all of those minor details.
__________________As for background stuff I can tell you now. I'll want a background, a personality, and a physical description. Tried and true methodology. Once I have about mmm... five people, I'll probably start taking this thread more seriously and put out some descriptives. |

Nice character idea, Blade. I think the bloodline you're thinking of is Red Eyes of the Mibu clan, an optional bloodline in the Bloodline/Templates section.
