Marked for Death: A Rational Naruto Quest

Reader mode
I will be off on a three day LARP/Camping trip this coming weekend starting Friday. I will have my phone but I don't think I will have much time to watch the thread. Make sure you guys comport yourselves appropriately. It costs nothing to be polite and to be upfront with our dissatisfaction with the state of the ninja world. Make sure to think things through and to plan ahead a little, not just to the next move but the implications and after effects.

Have fun! What's the LARP?

Okay but when he says to 'capture' her, is it okay if she's permanently paralyzed? When he says to 'bring him her head', does he actually want the head (i.e. don't use explosives) or was that a strictly symbolic way of saying to kill her?

He wants her alive and unmaimed -- ie, all bits attached and functional, all damage must be able to self-heal with only minimal intervention. Bruises, minor cuts, some soft-tissue damage, maybe a broken bone that isn't the spine / skull are all okay but nothing beyond that. Failing that he literally wants her head, in a recognizable state. Complete body would obviously be better.

That's a lot harder than simply blowing her and her guards up. :/

It's not that difficult once you think about it, since we have a really powerful genjutsu mistress on our team. Send kunai flying while using Truth Lost in the Fog (don't memory-wipe to avoid paying the price) to catch groups of enemies (including the target) in genjutsu, and suddenly they're all asleep.

Hang on, @eaglejarl @Velorien When we were escaping from the Liberator Village one of the Genin used a sleeping powder that oneshot Noburi. IIRC we managed to take the weapon from said Genin's corpse, but did we also retrieve some powder from that?
 
@eaglejarl It is called Shadowmoor. Boffer combat Larp, and longest running Larp in the North American South East. It will be my first time attending a LARP and will be able to join for free, maybe. I'm bringing money with me just in case it is not and the website is outdated on that front. If it is not going to be free it will cost about $50, so I'm good there. I have been saving up my money for a weekend trip.

There should be backup options as well. Use Macerator Seal to deploy sleeping powders.
 
Hm. I wonder if it would be economical for Pandaa to dig remote-controlled explosives beneath whatever roads lead to -location-.

You did not. She only had the one dose.

Hence my hesitation. I feel like it's really risky to not prep an ambush since once the target enters the town our chances of a successful capture/assassination go way down, never mind when she leaves with her contact.

We have two ambush opportunities without involving civilian casualties, assuming that they do use roads.
 
Just a heads-up on the interlude, I will ideally get it to QMs for double-checking pretty soon but it might go up as late as tomorrow morning becuase grad school.
 
For your information: Sunday post generated a sizable reaction.

Anyway, if we for whatever reason fail this mission because of mistakes and surprises, do we get auto-TPK by Jiraya and hunting-nins?
