Generic Ninja

This character sheet represents the best of the ninja families' operatives - highly trained or very experienced warriors, adept in stealth and combat. Despite their formidible prowess, ninja tend not to have as many levels as overt warrior-types, so they prefer to avoid combat where possible, or rely on dirty tricks to tip the balance in their favour.
