@OliWhail Oh god no, I don't even know how I'd go about asking her, ever. Wanted to know if her semi-catanoic state was caused by her bloodline or from the shock of the whole fiasco.

@1234qwerty Definitely go to Tea then. No reason for ninjas to have gone there, relaxing area, minimal ninja presence. Safe is a strong word but if we wanted safe we'd have become farmers.
 
Update on Team Aomori:
They currently know only that the team are "untrustworthy foreign VIPs, no, sorry, that's a tautology", not that you are missing nin in Jiraiya's employ. Please plan any final words or messages accordingly.
Alright, we under veils or Henge or both or..?

Also so will Jiraiya saying Inoue's name in front of them be retcon'd? This is me nitpicking, please don't hate.
 
Tea seems like the low-risk option (assuming hidden mountain hasn't screwed things up). Iron is higher risk (more active ninja presence, closer to where we've last acted), but also a place Noburi can get trained. Somewhere new is a random shot in the dark.

Pretty much, yes. Nice beaches, far away from potential hostiles, and if we're that desperate for medic training we can always join the Hydra Medical Foundation!
 
No, I am sorry. Let me be clear when I say this. Noburi can train his medical skills on animals. Full stop.

There is nothing that says that any animal heals in ways completely differently than a human within this world. If they heal better all the more reason to figure out how and replicate the effect.

It probably involves at least one of those, yes.

Was this second meeting with the hokage considered a privilege? It seems like there are some important matters about VHitM and Noodle that he would have wanted to discuss with us. Other than that, have we returned Shikamaru's book?
You have returned Shikamaru's book via intermediaries. What to do re: second meeting is being discussed.
 
So, yeah, uh, when I said before that a couple of guys got me to draw a picture for the thread? Well, Here's another one!

That's a good look for Hazou, if maybe a bit heavy on the highlights, and an odd one for the girl in orange. (I assume that's Akane? She's supposed to be the oldest, tallest, and most muscular of the teens.)
Mari is remarkably well done, despite being a head too tall. The hair over one eye falls under artistic license.
Kagome is much less scruffy than I was expecting, but on the other hand I guess he's more attractive this way? Either way, pleasant lighting, good outfit. Card in his hand could maybe use less glare.
Noburi baffles me. He's supposed to be short, chubby, and wearing a shirt. (And a barrel.) I like the choices for color and hairstyle, though.
Keiko looks like whatshername from Pacific Rim, but that's not exactly a bad thing. I don't really know what else to say about her? I suppose I'd expect her to be carrying more kunai, given her specialty, and to wear more muted colors.
And Pandā looks both cool and earnest-in-a-cute-manner, even in ninja clothes.
Overall, I'd say you did best with the faces, the more complicated outfits, and Pandā's scales, and worst with the cards on the table, which I assume is due to the art style. I'm seriously impressed.
Gosh, its so scary actually being a part of all of this. It was so much easier being a lurker who just read the fun story that happened. I keep having these scary visions of us asking Jiraiya about Kabuto, Jiraiya morphing into Orochimaru and killing us for "knowing too much".

@Velorien @eaglejarl what did you do to me? : (
Don't worry. If Orochimaru killed and/or possessed Jiraiya and is now wearing his skin, he'd be far more likely to try and make us defect or to feed us to lupchanz than to kill us.
 
No, I am sorry. Let me be clear when I say this. Noburi can train his medical skills on animals. Full stop.

I believe that may be an option after we get Noburi to level 10. Until then, I think he can only level it by being trained. Unsure though. Could use QM clarification. @OliWhail?

As a medical researcher who has actually done animal reserach:

No, I'm sorry, that's not even true of normal mammals -- you have different organ and circulatory arrangements, different shapes of those organs, different immune responses, and different responses to / metabolism of drugs among different species. And that's not even touching on whatever weirdness happens with the bizzare chakra creatures that inhabit the EN.

Would dissecting a corpse rather than handing it over to Jiraiya get any medical related exp after level 10?
 
Magic medical chakra powers training on aiding the body heal is not something that can be done and transfered skillset?

Edit: Cuts, burns, blunt force trauma, bloodloss, ect. Those skills in healing would be comprable to a human body compared to an animal. That is the most common type of injury we would have to learn to heal. It's not like I'm saying we should dissect animals to do cancer research or Research into various diseases and the like.

        • Nothing major's happened there recently. No reason for hunter-nins to go there.
        • Zabuza doesn't know we went there. He has no reason to go there.
        • Hidden Mountain is there. If we get really desperate we can go there.
        • Jiraiya's contact is there. We can send letters to places (that one innkeeper in Sound who Mari manipulated).
    • Follow the lead of the escort team.
      • Add? Ask if it's a good idea to ask them to not go through towns/go along river system/other ninja things to hide tracks.
    • Pay attention. Watch out for approaching threats (ninjas, chakra monsters...)
      • Add? if ninjas show up watch out in case our allies betray us.
  • Make a base.
    • Go along the western coast and find an area that's well hidden from all directions.

We shouldn't tell them we're heading to Tea. Drop us off somewhere where we can make our own path without crossing through Fire.
 
I just reread the entire scene and posts from when the group got thrown in jail for Hanzo's blunder and it feels to me like the entire thing was a punishment by GMs for players trying to out Kabuto as a spy and neatly shutting down any future attempts too.

It was kind of a stretch how it happened, but that is just my opinion.
