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.

The Banditos
qsr8jQA.png

Sunagakure did not take the warning. Just because the Cabal was pushed back and they had found their way to the surface did not mean that they were no longer in any danger. A six miscreants have arrived. Donning firearms and brimmed hats, their tanned skin and layers of dusty clothes told a tale of a group of men who were used to the desert. The diamond maelstrom was both a blessing and a curse in that it isolated Sunagakure from the rest of the world simultaneously trapping Suna as well as preventing others from causing the hidden village harm.

This new open world made travel easy in comparison and with the newly relocated civilians on the surface without barriers or walls, they were ripe for the picking. They came at night, broke into houses. In some they took their wares but in others they simply caused damage. They were crude and brutish, the result of likely a lifetime without a homestead. They were also dangerous.


Presently the six of them had broken into yet another home, their path through the village was obvious by the broken doors and windows. They had not been in the village for long, but it always takes longer to build than it does to destroy. The shattered glass bottles that littered the stone streets and of course the screams of their victims would make them easy to locate. Mostly assault, but in this case they also found a pretty girl also worth taking. She was screaming for help. She shot an elbow up into the air and hit the bandit in the nose, a stream of blood erupted from him and she broke away. She would likely not get far on her own.

Another three were inside a home, presumably the one she was taken from in the dead of night. There was the sound of furniture being overturned and of someone finding something worthwhile. It would happen to be a bottle of whisky that one of the men was greedily drinking. A small river of firewater ran down the side of his face while his comrades continue to overturn the house.

The other two seemed calmer, perhaps more intelligent, they were talking about something but the words that they exchanged were too low to be overheard. They were pointing at one house in particular, it was nothing spectacular to look at, the house that was. It seemed rather average, the lights were out and the curtains were drawn but they swayed uneasily as if someone had recently peered through the window. This pair started to approach this now object of interest wordlessly. One had his hand over his holster, simply hovering and the second tipped the brim of his hat downward to shade his face. "Kohaku," one of the men called.

OC: This event is built for low-level players as a learning opportunity but all are welcome. What you will need - an up to date profile and your jutsus.
 
OC: If you want, sure. Closed it because there was limited interest. On Wed/Thurs something a bit bigger will happen that you may be more interested in, depending on how well you watch these forum areas. Your call.
 
Can I take this one and get into the other one too? If this one is too light in difficulty, you can revive Magnetic(would prefer it, could definitely use an intro into magnetic element) since that topic didn't finish. I'm trying to get caugh up in a lot of areas.
 
Well, you only have 1 event slot. That I why I was warning you. But yes, this is of an was difficulty. Your call.
 
Just waiting for your IC entry into the village. Everything is set on my end. God rest these weary Banditos souls.
 
OC: Feel free to enter then. I will add an additional brief paragraph as I have nothing to respond to but can add more to the setting I suppose. Topic remains open until Shoma starts to fight (IF he starts to fight, perhaps he is a scoundrel). I will vary the opposition in accordance to the participants so it will be a fair and fun topic (I hope). Any questions or needs, feel free to contact me.

IC:
A man emerged from the house, he was rather large with trunk-like limbs and facial features that looked like he was recently punched in the face hard, several times. His was no stranger to a good brawl, but this was his natural face. Over his massive shoulder was a young woman, a twenty-something one would guess with long red hair and rather pale small features. Rather average for a denizen of Sunagakure it would seem as an overwhelming majority of Sunanites wqere gingers. The girl was screaming and pounding this behemoth's back with both fists, this gargantuan man did not seem to mind as he sneered at his comrades and announced, "souvenir" He spanked the poor girl in the ass and let out a chuckle.

These men were ransacking the village and they seemed to be uncontested here. Booze, broads and baubles. The lifeblood of a bandit.
 
[Topic entered WITH NPC: Masuda Ava]

The young master had been feeling restless this night. It had only been a few hours ago the she and her bodyguard entered the Desert Village. They made no attempt to hide themselves as they left the generous Toraono Dojo for a night of exploration. Being a bodyguard, it is Otandai Shoma's duty to safeguard the future of the Masuda name, and being a young teenager it is Masuda Ava's duty to make the task of a guardian figure needlessly more difficult. Still, the male of the pair would try to see this as an opportunity to learn and the to teach the youth as well. They engage in a little conversation

Inquiring: "So, why are you not satisfied with you bed?"

Taunting: "Shoma, I implore you to quit being so old. Rest is for the sick and the dead."

Advising: "And the tired. Do you think it wise to...(interrupted)"

Sassing: (Interrupting)"Yes I do, hmhmhm.(In wonder) You just cannot understand the excitement of the idea of there being a sword style, 'Only for Women.' Did you see Mistress Azame?(Implying) I know you saw Lady Sunaku Sashi... What do you think of her?"

The mood of the night is interrupted by a cry, and then another. The Shoma grabs to hand of young master and escorts her to the wall of the nearest building. The two then slide into the shadows of the closest alley and silence themselves in waiting. As the swordsman peeks out of the darkness three men are observed abducting a woman with red hair. Ava's heart begins to pound for she has yet to see battle. Taking the sword from Ava's side, Shoma places it into her hands and gives instruction through a whisper. "Go back to the Dojo, hide yourself in the darkest shadows when possible... I pray you not see battle this night." In an attempt to muster a stern voice, she replies "I can do this with you, and you can protect me." With a firm grasp on her shoulder, the guardian denies her, "Do not overestimate your ability, nor undermine your significance. Go in haste and stealth."

The Masuda nods and takes to the shadows. Spotting a cracked yardstick in a trash container, the samurai picks it up and conceals it behind his back before he steps out and walks toward the trio seen before. He approaches at a leisure pace for he is more at ease knowing his master is further removed from harm. He attempts to gauge there ability as he engages them more, which is also why he chooses to walk slow. Not expression in particular is presented unto the four strangers as he stops about ten feet from them. His discernment tells of a young woman threaten by three aggressors, but the Stone Shinobi didn't want to leave space for misunderstanding and mistaken intentions. A correct response is far easier to give when a situation is perceived correctly. And if these men do intent an ill fate for the woman this night, maybe they can be turned from it. "Good evening, Gentlemen. Good evening, Miss... May I ask what your plans are for this night?"

[NPC: Masuda Ava attempting to leaving topic]
(Is there a way to remove some of the other OOC post in topic?)
 
Arms full of loot, uncontested. A broad over the shoulder of another. A bandit dizzy and flushed with a bellyfull of booze. One enjoying a good smoke as he pulled a fag from his shirt pocket and lit the cancer stick with a snap of the fingers. The other two just bullshitting by this point, each with a burlap sack of wares. "I totally could lift an Akimichi," one of the bullshitters announced. "Sure man, and if I recall your girlfriend back home that none of us have ever met is totally a rinnegan user," the second quipped, always a dreamer that Ruhako with his harem wife and his tales of strength, almost as bad as his fish tales. He then looked up at his ally, the biggest of then with the young girl slung over his shoulder. "Really Kohaku, another one? You broke the last one already?" The question was not condescending, rather it was simply exasperated -- these girls barely last a week these days. "Nope, but you know she is gonna wear out in a day or two."<i></i> He let out a chuckle as he shifted his shoulders with a shrug that rocked the young girl and she screamed. "She is my spare."

All was going well, without a hitch when a young man approached them. To his back another cute girl was lurking. "Hey darling, ever been with a real man?" The brute called out with a sneer. "There I plenty of man to go 'round"</B><i></i> he beckoned. Was she carrying something behind her back? How cute, did she think an oversized metal toothpick could fend him off? Maybe it was something more useful like a block plastered with explosive notes. From his particular vantage point he could not tell but he licked his lips all the same.

"Just one, remember."<i></i> One of the loot hoarders reminded him.

It was then that they were approached. Someone with balls or an utter lack of brains decided to intervene in what was not their fight. What were their plans? Wasn't that fucking obvious? Well, who knew what passed for fun around here, maybe a riveting game of Parcheesi. "Going to read a book and take a long walk on the beach," Kohaku replied sarcastically. <B>"What, you think you are supposed to be some sort of hero or something?"<i></i> he scoffed.

Oc: Phone post, sorry. In any case, NPC is free to leave or stay. Have fun and hopefully you make your mark as a hero or fiend!
 
And so, in approaching these men, Shoma would hear some words traded among them. This serves to further declare their intentions. A hostage seen, and a hostage unknown. Fortunately for these people, or perhaps the Samurai, he wasn't sure that these men could pose a threat to the Young Master. If they did, in the eyes of the Samurai, he would immediate have to force upon them a harsh response. Oppression and misuse of those that could not defend themselves. Ask Shoma asked his question, he is given a sarcasm in return. Instead they seemingly express concern that the Stone Shinobi before them was a 'hero.' To this 35 year old Shoma gives a little chuckle and, "Hmhm, how kind of you. But there are many other who are so, more heroic and virtuous than myself. I can hardly compare, for I'm just a man with a code." He wonders just what he should say to show them the fault in their thinking but, could only come up with this. ''But this place seems so,... freeing. As if... I could do as I please.'' Letting his makeshift weapon show, the Samurai hopes that he does gravely underestimate those before him. Yet, drawing a sword would be too soon for now.

[OOC: I'm ready. Should I just send my stuff?]
 
OC: Send your stuff or link it. Either is fine, this is about fun and ease. Just remember to hyperlink your actions and provide as much information about what you are doing as possible. Conditionals are as always limited to 5. If you need help wording a conditional then please ask, again this is not an exercise where I am trying to make you eat sand (that comes in some very soon to come threads - yay fiber). If you are having difficulty understanding numbers and meanings of attacks, you can ask. I am not enforcing ROE in terms of posting time or payers being able to enter but I anticipate this thread only lasting 2-3 rounds considering the fact that you are grossly overpowered for it but that just means you get to act like Guts.

IC:

Kohaku snickered at the man who was too dumb of a shit as to run away. His eyes took note of Shoma's weapon and let out a roaring laugh. "You dun know who you are missing with buddy," the bandit announced as he flexed his arms. The musculature became more pronounced and the veins more defined as they stretched the limits of the ne'er do well's shirt to their fibrous limit. He let the girl fall off his shoulder, she fell to the ground and slammed her head on the hard-packed earth. She was unconscious, perhaps it was best that she was not awake to see what was about to transpire. One of his allies let out a hoot and a chuckle, it looked like Kohaku was going to have some actual fun after all. He placed a hair of brass knuckles over his fists and pounded his meaty paw into his opposite palm a pair of times. Not nearly as fun to break as that bitch would have been," he nodded his head in the direction of the unconscious woman and another in the direction of the young woman who departed (assuredly) moments earlier. "But I am a reasonable man I would like to think."

And with that the man with a speed that betrayed his size lunged for Shoma.
 
To the question given to Shoma by the soon-to-be assailant, he simply shakes his head and says"I do not, you are correct.", nodding at the end of the statement. However, this other man mentions his master... which would mean to the samurai that he would have to ensure that this one could not pose a threat. The man who seems to be the leader of the group speaks further. To this Shoma grants a faint smile and states, "Hm, reasonable are you? And you have thoughts too? Please do share. The floor is your's." If the swordsman would be fortunate this day, the floor would belong to this stranger in Sand. Extending his right foot forward, Shoma adjusts his grip on the yardstick and stables himself. He looks carefully at the woman left on the side of the road, treated as if she were equal to litter. Now that he knew that Ava was safe, he tells himself that this mystery woman would be treated as if she were his Young Master for this moment, being that no one else was here to protect her. But, they did mention another woman, the one the 'leader' claimed to be on the verge of breaking. How would Shoma discover her fate? Hopeful, he could find the answer, as well as the means to save her if life has yet to fade from her.
 
OC: Let me know if I missed anything. Also, I must complement you on your use of sense masteries and your effective use of the AP time-stack system. It is rare to see someone who actually understands and attempts to effectively utilize those. I feel guilty giving you such an easy battle now. If at any point the narration language offends you or you would like an edit, I am more than happy to oblige.

"Hm, reasonable are you? And you have thoughts too? Please do share. The floor is your's."

Offended by the calm and collected stranger Kohaku made a gesture with his hand -- it was fairly universal for get your asses in gear and kick the shit out of the twit. His response would be with violence! "You realize that you're outnumbered, right?" The bully behemoth spat onto the ground as he pulled out his giantblade weapon. It was rather dull and well-used, in comparison to the average shinobi implement it was actually a piece of shit but it was not always the weapon but sometimes it was the wielder that made it worthwhile. Silently the others also drew their weapons. Guns and bows and giantblades. Meanwhile Shoma appeared in a brief period of medication. "Prayer won't help," one of the bandits scoffed. If they were better practiced perhaps they would have realized that what shoma was performing was a rather exceptional and high-level shinobi skill. Less showy than most ninjutsus it served a rather quiet effectiveness that these cretins would overlook.

Jomei was a quick-shot both in battle and in life. His first attack missed Shoma entirely, the bullet ricocheted off a stone building and landed harmlessly in the hard-packed ground. Shoma, likely saw this as an exceptional opportunity. Suddenly there was a searing pain in the collective asses of Mori, Funeji and Yami. Yami yelped the loudest before he cried "Holey fuck mah ass is on Fiah!" Thankfully Yami did not speak often because to most the statement likely sounded nonsensical, although it is rather possible that Shoma got the jist if he spoke gutter-rat. The expression on Mori and Funeji's face accompanied by the clenching of ass-cheeks was the only sign that Mori and Funeji would provide, something that might be missed by Shoma if he was not looking in that particular area -- if he was then his priorities are terribly skewed in this fight. That said, who can truly know the all-seeing nature that many steadfast and resolute shinobis these days possess with their uncanny vision, sense of sound and scent.

It was Funeji's turn to attempt to take this muscle-bound goodie-goodie down a few notches. A few notches he did not take as his sad arrow quivered in the air and landed uselessly on the ground a few feet before Shoma. Dumbfounded, his gaze as was perhaps that of his allies, another wave of anal torment washed over several of Funeji's allies. Grace or providence spaced his own. Looks of displeasure and a one Jomei wondering if he happened to catch something at that harem in Sora. He paid good money for 'cleanish' company -- perhaps he did not get his money's worth.

A flurry of fire and arrows and bullets filled the small battlespace and still somehow Shoma managed to for the most part escape their assaults mostly unscathed. Kohaku let out a roar as his giantblade slammed into the round. the earth cracked and rolled upward as if waves of water had been disturbed. Kohaku did not seem to care about friend, foe, civilian or structure as the moving earth knocked his allies, his foes and spectators alike off their feet. Some of the weaker spectators would likely suffer injury in fact, not built to take even the damage of a simple fall -- the old may suffer from a broken hip and the young from a fractured wrist. Of his allies, just a few scrapes and a few bruised egos was all they would suffer from. "Wach et," Yami complained. "We are on the same team," a second griped.

"Why the fuck is it dark out now!" Kohaku yelled in frustration.

"Yah, da fuk?" Yami echoed. The pair obviously disoriented in the darkness, now unaware of the movements of their allies as well as their enemy.

"I have no idea what you guys are talking about, it is not dark at all," Mori commented as he threw away his most recently expelled explosives cannister.

"It is as dark as the dead of night," Jomei protested with a sigh. "I think we got ourselves an illusionist ninja -- or something," he commented out loud. Of course this was a wild guess and likely not true but he had meager exposure to the shinobi experience. Supposedly enough to know when things are not right.

Shoma had sewn some additional chaos into the fight with this darkness. Shoma continued to prepare himself to fight this group head-on while they fumbled in the darkness and in the light, Most of their attacks did not land, although there was the occasional lucky shot. And then Shoma disappeared. "Where is that fucking coward. I am going to smash him. And cut him. and gut him!"<i></i> Kohaku shouted.

Likely not far," Ruhako answered as he scanned the area with his dark eyes. He was familiar with the art of hiding as well, but not to the same level. Still, everyone makes mistakes. Everyone stumbles. So where are you mister hero?

As battle begins, the samurai believes himself to be only slightly concerned. He gives an acknowledgement of, "That's correct." to the mentioning of odds and fairness. With the movement speed these men, Shoma feels a little more confident in his ability to subdue them. Yet, as he moves and weaves through and within the crowd of men, he finds it a little more difficult to take it easy on such a group. Furthermore, a one of them did wield an exotic weapon of sort. After he summons the will within to heighten his focus, he waits for his opportunity to strike. The one with the exotic weapon would be the first to try his hand. This strange weapon seemed to the samurai to be an augmented bow weapon of some type, which led Shoma to do all he could to avoid being in front of the tool. With quick sidesteps, the Stone shinobi gives quick strokes to the hindquarters of the opponents that failed to hit him as "Go-ti" echoes in the air.

The swordsman would not go unscathed however, for while in the fray with six other men, someone was bound to strike true all-be-it one man more frequently than the others. The strange handheld device proved to be far more difficult to avoid than any projectile any shinobi has used before. But in the chaos, needless actions were made, acts against a non-combatant. Shoma realizes in his arrogance that he is failing to save and protect this woman. After using the darkness for cover, Shoma changes his approach and decides to warn them, "You have had the floor *pant* and have shown the capacity to speak. *pant* Now,.. you have until I count to six,*pant* to cease your aggression, put aside your weapons, and give me the location of your prisoner." He didn't find it honorable to kill men of lesser ability or to kill at all, but it would be worse to let them bring further harm to this woman, or the one they have captive. He stills himself for he resolves to use his blade. However, if his sword finds its too well, at least Master Ava and others like the poor red haired woman would be that much safer. Shoma decides he has earned the blood drawn from him and even more, yet there is time to bring things a little closer to right.

It happened so fast it was hard to say what exactly happened. In a flash of electrical light all but two were on the ground. The two that remained standing: Mori and Ruhako. Mori, likely the smarter of the two threw gasoline on the already burning Shoma but the flames seemed to push the heat outward and not inward so they did no additional damage. "He must be one of 'em ninja-douches with your magical powers," the bandanna-wearing bandit taunted. He seemed to be armed to the teeth as he pulled out yet another grenade. What he lacked in accuracy he more than made up for in damages when his attacks did actually make contact. The other bandit still standing, Ruhako -- he somewhat looked like the sleazy uncle you never wanted to be left alone with in the same room. His knife still in hand, he slashed wildly at Shoma. Most of his attacks struck only air, but several of them hit home. when they did, a surge of electrical energy seemed to convulse through the seedy bandit. Undeterred or too stupid to notice the corollary he persisted in his attacks.

By the end of a ten-second span Ruhako was huffing for air and he announced to his still conscious ally. I don't think we are doing that much damage to this guy, he is built like a fucking tank, he complained as he took a staggering step back. We should get out of here Ruhako announced as he started to attempt to back away. (Note: Ruhako is attempting to flee the battle, leaving behind his allies).

"Fucking pussy, we have him. Two to one, we can handle this," Mori insisted as he pulled from his pocket yet another dangerous explosive device.

No, leave the shit and get outta here! Ruhako debated before he waved his hands giving the universal 'the fuck with you' sign as he started to attempt to flee.

Mori looked at Shoma with a confident smirk. "Big guys sure do fall hard don't they?"
