Marked for Death: A Rational Naruto Quest

If we leave them alive and let them leave later we're getting mega pursued imo

We can't keep them indefinitely unless we're keeping constant eyes on them (and even then maybe not), which is going to make finding the Scroll nearly impossible

My suggestion is that we Daizen them: strip them of their gear, give them some head trauma, throw them in a MEW box, and they can dig their way out. We know that it's possible to take enemy nin captive and that means that when they're captive (in transit) they're somehow incapacitated/incapable of casting jutsu. If they weren't, they'd pop suicide techniques, either the die quietly and painlessly sort, or the 'take us all with them' sort.

Would only delay the time the info get to the enemy.
These ninja would get out and try to war their camp/village.
Daizen was done this way because we did not care if he eventually get out, think more on the sunset racer scenarion but without any moral ambiguity.

You mean eyes? I don't think they used any special power to notice the summoning scroll

It does have implications for how the presumably-a-Genin recognized the summoning scroll. Maybe the Squirrel scroll was recovered but nobody knew how to use it, and instead of worshiping it (Isan) the holders of the scroll make sure everyone knows what it looks like so that if/when Leaf comes calling again they'll know and respond accordingly.

Side note: A weird part of me wants to, while fighting, go on about us being confused and what the fuck are they talking about and Leaf's doing what now. Dunno if that would do anything, though.

I don't think we're going to be able to play this off as a chakra beast attack - not convincingly. If they're any sort of hitters, chakra beasts aren't a threat even with three genin hanging around. Career chuunin don't get disappeared by chakra beasts.

If we win the fight decisively, create mass confusion as to the actual cause of death, then give them some genin back, we confuse the fuck out of the village and maybe that gets us some intel or something useful.

Aren't they kind of huge?

According to Mareo, several Clans in this area are built around owning a Scroll and in fact named themselves after the Scrolls they possessed (Skunk, Squirrell, and Raccoon.) It isn't that surprising that people in this area would know what they are or what they look like, even if they aren't of one of those 3 clans.

Fair point, but it doesn't answer why they assumed we were from Leaf specifically.

At the very start of the quest many of the Mist expedition's chuunin and jonin were eliminated by chakra beasts

This is a bad idea, the genin just would relate what they seen to vilage and what they seen is too much, we lack the meas to turn genin in memetic bombs like itachi.
Atempting to mask as a chakra beast attack may not work but this would accomplish the opposide of the objective.

Leaf's number one strategy in WW4 was "Launch an army of summons at a target to blow it to smithereens", and then a group with multiple Summoners rolled up and said "Hey we're from the West!"

Not all that surprising to be honest, no other western village has multiple summoners (hell only Cloud even has ONE)

Even after resting in base camp they got picked off on occasion. There's occasional strong chakra beasts, like, the Quisling Tyrant could probably kill any jonin that didn't spec into resolve (most jonin don't have reason to go beyond Resolve 40, it's a big investment for marginal gain). If you aren't accustomed to fighting Chakra Beasts you won't fare as well against them

Considering the swamp of death capped a jounin on the prologue, yeah chakra beasts are capable to kill a jounin, that's why you just don't send them on patrol.

You saw an exhausted, largely chakra-depleted jōnin get eaten from ambush by an alligator with superpowers that he had no reason to expect. You then saw a gator get defeated by three rested genin who knew what to expect and what to look for based on information gleaned from, among other things, the death of that first jōnin.

Chakra beasts in alone environments is different from ones you are familiar with. As the swamp people learned as they got familiar.
Also the swamp of death was so dangerous that even normal patrols avoided it if I recall. Such dangerous places are also a place a village wouldn't expect a patrol to go to
 
The point is being killed by a chakra beast is not impossible.
So making it look like disaster but not unfeseble story the team leader was distracted for a moment, stepped on a chakra beast nest got insta killed, the team panicked send a signal but where killed by the chakra beasts burn a FP to have stored some chakra beast bodies stored and set a small local fire to burn the bodies starting on the fire stylist.


The more i think about it the more starting a wild fire on the forest seems like a good idea. A great way to cover our tracks specially with an fire stylist on the enemy forces.

[X] (MARS loadout) Stack Buffs Punch Hard
Word Count: ~200

[...]
  • Chain 2 (Worn)
    • Same as Chain 1, but you only activate the loadout on yourself.
      • Banshee Slayers
      • Banshees (slightly away from body, and far from any organs, such as legs/feet or hanging off of clothes.)
      • Pangolin Pepper Macerators
      • Strobelight Seals

You don't need to replicate the bolded part, I can read by reference.

Shrooms said:
That would necessitate extra chains for each person, not like anyone can just chime on the same chain.

Once you create the chain (e.g. one MARS that eventually triggers everyone's Banshee Slayers), you can pair as many ARS to the root of the chain as you want.

with that said, we should get a bonus to initiative bc the chakdars totally would've detected that guy prepping a ninjutsu

@eaglejarl @Velorien did we ever get mechanics on chakdar? The Initiative boost it provides might prove vital in the coming update.

Oneiros said:
With regards to chakdar this is what the vibrator seals did

with this as the range

We then researched Chakdar following Kei's suggestion but never obtained mechanics. So worst case scenario is they are effectively the same as vibrator seals

As Oneiros points out, the range of 6ft is only effective when combat starts in Melee of the user. Chakdar will not be a part of this combat.
