Description

A short blurb describing the NPC grunt, what they do, and goals.

Standard Operating Procedure/Rules of Engagement

The elite ninja is a pretty simple enemy to run. They can either spend multiple passes whiffing throwing knife attacks in order to take advantage of their smart link bonus of +1 DP for each knife thrown that combat turn to build up to 1 deadly pre-edged knife. The +1 DP applies before you split your pools, so it won't become too overwhelming for the players.

In the event that they need to close into melee, then they have 2 options. If they've been caught in the middle of throwing knives, then they may choose to eat the intercept and continue throwing them or draw their nodachi. Nothing fancy here, it's a big sword that makes things die.

In the event that the ninja is knocked prone, then they will use kip-up in order to return to the standing position as well as attack their opponent.
