That is one possible approach but frankly I doubt that alone will reveal too much

Combine Blade Projection with Sword Throwing, blades that blow up after you throw them.

I do appreciate having a Sword Guy, and a Ninjutsu Spec. They're just very fun builds to tinker with and build up

By the way, if you have specific jutsu trades or any training etc. in mind for next chapter(s) you will need to vote those in. By default the characters are going to keep their stuff to themselves. I think people also wanted to recruit Chiyome to explore the sealing failure, same thing, that would need to be voted in
What exactly needs to get voted in? Training plans, any jutsu trades, research, Chiyome to explore the Sealing Failure, anything else?

Do you have a list of which characters know what, by any chance? One that you're willing to share 🙏

In an action plan? Do we vote that in now, or after the next chapter drops, and the arc officially ends?

Training plans can wait until after you do any jutsu exchanges, I think. So we'll save that for next cycle.
Research can probably also wait til next cycle.
I think the main thing is:
- voting in what the next 'main goal' for the characters is (sounds like people want to go check out the Sealing failure bordering Rain and Wind)
- voting in what you want from the info broker
It's a bit OOC but we'll just say you saw glimpses of them while training for the raid together/discussing abilities
Chiyome:
- Vacuum Energy Ball (Wind) - Straightforward ranged Wind attack that's especially strong against armor.
- Squall Repulsion (Wind) - Personal-sized Wind barrier that repels attacks, attackers, and projectiles
- Subtle Sickle (Wind) - AOE wind attack that is boosted by Stealth
- Wind Wall (Wind) - A Wind barrier that can shield your Zone from projectiles and attacks
- Flaming Sun Wheel (Fire) - Seemingly a pet project of his. Doubtful he will share.
- Fire Lash (Fire) - Essentially, better Water Whip as it can attack two opponents at once.
- Rising Sun Dragon (Fire) - Basic but potent AOE attack.
- Fiery Dance (Fire) - Creates big walls of fire that make traveling between Zones harder
- Burning Chains (Fire) - Creates several chains of fire that stay near the user and can attack nearby opponents
- Divine Serpent (Lightning) - Creates a massive snake made of Lightning Chakra to slither through several enemies
- Fist of the Lightning God (Lightning) - Small AOE that can also blow away attacks and bolster other Lightning techniques
- Starlight Dance (Lightning) - Movement buff that also debuffs attacking. Mainly used as a getaway tool or travel tool.
- Electrifying Field (Lightning) - Trap ninjutsu that can be set hours in advance and later detonate.
- Obsidian Thorns (Earth) - Bloodline related, can't be shared.
- Hiding Like a Mole (Earth) - Burrowing tech that is much better than Momoka's. Might not want to share for that reason
- Bleeding River Impalement (Earth) - AOE attack that also makes the terrain much harder to traverse.
- Earth Wall (Earth) - Defensive ninjutsu, better bonus than MEW but can only be centered on caster.
- Eye of the Dust Devil (Earth) - Sensory ninjutsu that makes a cloud of earth the user can sense through (does not obstruct vision)
- Earth Clone (Earth) - Makes elemental clones made of earth.
- Headhunter (Earth) - Too overpowered to share /s. Lets you trap people in earth. Pretty niche use, he basically only uses it to secure targets while he's chasing others.
🤔
jk, yes you can vote to do stuff now. Mainly what to ask the info broker + whatever it is the characters plan to do next
Is this incompatible with Living Roots, or would the bonuses add together?
[X] Action Plan: Next Steps
- Offer to trade some jutsu
- Vacuum Step and Stolen Whispers for Silent Sickle and Wind Wall from Chiyome
- Living Roots and Spine of the Earth for Earth Clone and Bleeding River Impalement from Shirogane
- Ask Chiyome if she'd be willing to accompany the team to the border of Wind and Rain to investigate the Sealing failures there. We're interested in any loot that may be remaining on any bodies there.
- We know she's kind of trapped here by Reo and Shirogane, and we'd be willing to distract Shirogane for a day or so by trading him some jutsu -- giving her a chance to escape. Reo is laid up at the moment.
Awkward to trade jutsu to the guy who might be hunting our asses down, especially when it'd be improving his burrow sneaking combo. I get it's necessary for an effective distraction and we might as well get cool stuff for Momoka if we have to distract him anyway but alas. If we can figure out any good alternatives I'd like that.

hmm generally speaking I'm a bit disinclined to stack bonuses from the same element... earth buff + earth attack with innate bonuses is fine, but I don't like earth buff + earth buff quite as much

[x] Action Plan: Trades, Deals, and Automobiles
- Kenzou:
- Try channeling chakra into the samurai sword we got from the keep.
- Ask Chiyome if she'd be willing to accompany the team to the border of Wind and Rain to investigate the Sealing failures there. We're interested in any loot that may be remaining on any bodies there.
- We know she's kind of trapped here by Reo and Shirogane, and we'd be willing to distract Shirogane for a day or so by trading him some jutsu -- giving her a chance to escape.
- Ninjutsu scroll trades.
- Chiyome: Sell Vacuum Step and Stolen Whispers, in return for Subtle Scythe and Wind Wall.
- if she agrees, perhaps we do this after having exfiltrated to a safer location?
- Reo: Sell Living Roots and Spine of the Earth (good combination synergy, useful base for Tweaking), in return for Bleeding River Impalement and Earth Clone.
- Shirogane: Sell a copy of Hell's Roar, in exchange for Burning Chains.
- (If we can't make copies of Hell's Roar, then he learns the jutsu under our supervision)
- Chiyome: Sell Vacuum Step and Stolen Whispers, in return for Subtle Scythe and Wind Wall.
- Work on Stunt Research (if incompatible with healing, prioritize healing).
- Meet up with the Information Broker, and leverage our successfully completed mission for additional shinies
- Previous Agreement for locating the Carts
- Info on where we can locate things to increase our own personal power and prestige, general news of the goings-on of the Elemental Nations, and so on.
- Additional Rewards for going above and beyond the original mission description.
- Ronin who would be willing to train Kenzou in Samurai-adjacent arts.
- Examples: Samurai-specific blacksmithing techniques, Samurai Path-inspired ninja combat stunts, etc.
- Someone willing to train us in Archery, and/or a ninja-strength bow.
- Reflexive Wind or Water buff-type ninjutsu (NB: Less straight up buffs, more single use tags like MEW. Defensive way to proc elemental advantage when needed).
- Or, failing that, copies of any of the above ninjutsu that Reo/Shirogane declined to trade. If that's still too rich for the Yakuza's blood, then ninjutsu of equal power/utility in those same elements.
- If the aforementioned jutsu trades were successful, and we received them via ninjutsu scroll, offer to make the yakuza copies of the ninjutsu scrolls to sweeten the deal. Only do this if the yakuza have willing contacts, but are insufficiently moved by our mission success to give us the trainers.
- If the Yakuza are still reluctant, then as a measure of last resort: offer jutsu scrolls of our own known ninjutsu, contingent upon their full agreement.
- Or, failing that, copies of any of the above ninjutsu that Reo/Shirogane declined to trade. If that's still too rich for the Yakuza's blood, then ninjutsu of equal power/utility in those same elements.

Nah, I'd need Deceit 10 and Resolve 20, at a minimum
