Survivalist
Ninpocho Chronicles
Ninpocho Chronicles is a fantasy-ish setting storyline, set in an alternate universe World of Ninjas, where the Naruto and Boruto series take place. This means that none of the canon characters exists, or existed here.
Each ninja starts from the bottom and start their training as an Academy Student. From there they develop abilities akin to that of demigods as they grow in age and experience.
Along the way they gain new friends (or enemies), take on jobs and complete contracts and missions for their respective villages where their training and skill will be tested to their limits.
The sky is the limit as the blank page you see before you can be filled with countless of adventures with your character in the game.
This is Ninpocho Chronicles.

[quote]Survivalists believe in the concept of a stalemate victory. They focus on not being the person dead at the end of the fight more than being the person with the least stab wounds. Survivalists are extremely hardy, and if one is not prepared for it they might find their own techniques hurting them more than the Survivalist.
