I'm not sure if this has been done before, probably has.

Anyone know any ninja builds?

If not...Then...I'd assume it would be something with Monk, Shadowdancer, Assassin, or something...But...With a Katana!...I suppose Short swords also work...Or Kamas...But Kamas are lame!

Whatcha got?!

you even listed my crap defensive build that doesn't kill a fly, talk about being vague in class selection.

But... katanas are for samurais, not ninjas... if I'm correct, I'm not an expert about it, make a search in wikipedia about ninjas?

Thax the Shadow Dragon sez: MONKS USE KAMAS. Just ask him.
One you missed! Click Here

I understand why though, as it is a DEXER cleric! Not the easiest thing to play, but can be very very very mean.

Peace

You should listen to avado

I'm thinking either a dex or str-based Fighter/Rogue/SD or Fighter/Assn/SD. Probably the former, with Epic Dodge, exotic weapon proficencies, some Crippling Strike, and the capacity to strike in close or from afar. Traps, high stealth, HiPS, etc....

You can even go for super high-Dex with a Halfling Ninja with using Fighter/Rogue/HS. He can make his own Cats Grace potions, stack that with his Cats Grace spell, use the two bonus feats for Great Dex's and have SC III, Epic Dodge and EWS all by Level 30. SShould be able to get a really nice AC.

Of course, you may still look for some kind of Oriental Adventures flavor and want to use some kind of unarmed Monk version, but then you don't really have a ninja, you have a monk.

Ariel, Ookla, RIDE! why is it that people want ninjas with katanas? it is nonsense.. the katana is perhaps the last weapon a ninja would use. they utilize much more sophisticated weapons than the blade of a katana. Katanas are mainly samurai swords and where hardly ever used as a ninja weapon.

I like samurai jack, so here is a little build.

20monk/7wm/13rog

it is human of race and you will be able to take exotic and WF katana plus the additionel feats for WM before reaching epic lvls. It has dmg potential as a str build.

When I saw this post I was thinking of a build which can uphold dev crit and epic dodge. that would be a killer version, but sadly low ab.

What!? Of course Ninjas used Katanas! Don't you watch movies?!

Good ideas so far Get creative!!!!

I really don't know what I'm looking for, either! Just something totally bad *** and ninja like.

If you knew Endalyor as well as I did, you'd know it was another of his completely pointless questions. Hence why I ignored it.

Somewhy I remembered about what mantis3 said back then...

You want a ninja? learn ninjitsu.

:: Ninja Spy ::

(PRESTIGE CLASS)
The Ninja Spy is an enigmatic and mysterious character. While most ninja are little more than assassins, the Ninja Spy uses stealth, cunning and mystical powers to accomplish almost any task for their master.

Appearing and disappearing seemingly at will, the Ninja Spy moves invisibly through enemy ranks. No matter the mission - be it infiltration, sabotage or cold-blooded murder - the presence of this black-garbed shadow of death spells disaster for all who stand in the way.

Shrouded in secrecy, the Ninja Spy is sworn to keep his or her profession a secret and to protect the identity of other members of their clan. A blind beggar by the roadside, a drunken fighter staggering homeward, a giggling geisha hiding her face - any one of them could be a disguise, hiding the dark and deadly secret identity of the Ninja Spy.

- Hit Die: d8.
- Proficiencies: A Ninja Spy gains the Exotic weapon proficiency.
- Skill Points: 6 + Int Modifier.

REQUIREMENTS:

Alignment Restrictions: Any non-chaotic, non-good.
Skills: Bluff (10 ranks), Hide (10 ranks), Tumble (10 ranks).
Feats: Dodge, Evasion.

ABILITIES:

Level
1: Use Poison - The Ninja Spy can apply poison to weapons.
Feat - Weapon Proficiency: Exotic.
2: Feat - Sneak Attack (+1d6).
Feat - Improved Evasion.
3: Feat - Epic Skill Focus: Tumble - Player gains +3 bonus to all skill checks with Tumble.
4: Feat - Hide in Plain Sight.
5: Feat - Sneak Attack (+2d6).
7: Thousand Faces - The Ninja Spy gains the ability to change their appearance at will.
8: Venom Immunity - The Ninja Spy becomes immune to all forms of poison.
Feat - Sneak Attack (+3d6).

Rofl. So true...All of my questions are pointless. *nods*

So, next week we'll be talking about how to make a half orc barbarian sorcer who plays the harmonica and enjoys Piņa Coladas and long walks on the beach...Oh, and getting caught in the rain. *nods* Wow, I bet if you scrolled through the request boards, you'd see about 20 similar threads...

Now you're into roleplaying! This would be a fun character to play. And it could be quite powerful despite the cha penalty.
