Ninjaology

Foci

===Blades:=== Be it cutting or slashing, ending or parting, the symbology of the bladed weapon to the insightful ninja is a precious one. Shu typically uses his blades as a focus for something destructive, although he can also use them for less destructive means, like defense.

Entropy 1-3, Time 1-3

===Dice:=== The Dice of Auspicious Fortune is an old rote often used by Akashics and Enthanatoi alike. Rolling a pair of perfectly balanced jade dice, Shu can gain insight to the flow of fate and fortune, or even direct it's path.

Entropy 1-3

===Do:=== A miniature paradigm in of itself, Do is all about doing, be it moving, striking, or focusing. Do is an art of the body, and in the movement one can align oneself with Akasha in order to see one's will be done.

===Blood:=== Rarely used, but a potent focus, blood represents life and death, creation and destruction. Generally used as a last resort, blood is powerful because of the resonance it has with the most frequent enemy: living beings.

Ninja Plans

The Weapon of my Enemy is a Useful Tool

Ninja did not invent the idea of breaking into an opponent's camp, stealing his clothes, and impersonating him, nor the much more practical idea of stealing your opponent's supplies, but they are tactics that Shu is well versed in. While the setting has changed, and the security measures are different- and even the supplies themselves are newfangled and odd to his reckoning, Shu doesn't see why such a plan shouldn't work.

The Plan:

1. Locate a Technocratic Outpost.
2. Infiltrate/Raid it.
3. Loot their armory and kill their men.
4. Bug out.

It is a simple plan, but with the right preparation it should be effective. Aside from dealing a blow to the cabal's enemies, it would secure them some much needed supplies, and possibly even some intel.

EDIT: We did it and it was awesome.
