| Half1337Dragons02-15-07, 01:25 PM | Hello all. I have decided to try something different. I will make an anime based D&D world for my players. I decided that I would custom make all classes for this event. So here is some of the classes, this is a Naruto based campaign. Also I'v decided that Ninja's according to the show are so great, that all ninja classes do not CC skills. ::Class:: Naruto Uzumaki Requirements: ~Chaotic Good Hit Dice: d10 ::Saves:: ~Fortitude~ +2,+3,+3,+4,+4,+5,+5,+6,+6,+7,+7,+8,+8,+ 9,+9,+10,+10,+11,+11,+12 ~Reflex~ +2,+3,+3,+4,+4,+5,+5,+6,+6,+7,+7,+8,+8,+ 9,+9,+10,+10,+11,+11,+12 ~Will~ +2,+3,+3,+4,+4,+5,+5,+6,+6,+7,+7,+8,+8,+ 9,+9,+10,+10,+11,+11,+12 ::Base Attack & Specials:: +1 Oiroki no Jutsu +2 +3 Harem no Jutsu +4 +5 Kage Bunshin no Jutsu +6/1 +7/2 Demon Inheritance +8/3 +9/4 Shihou Hapou Shuriken no Maki +10/5 +11/6/1 Uzumaki Rendan +12/7/2 +13/8/3 Toad Summon +14/9/4 +15/10/5 Taijuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu +16/11/6/1 Demon Form +17/12/7/2 Uzumaki Nisen Rendan +18/13/8/3 +19/14/9/4 Ransengan +20/15/10/5 ::Special:: Demon Form: Using the Demon you obtain from Demon Inheritance to add his power to you for 1d10 minute's. The demon will grant you +8 Strength +8 Dexterity +8 Wisdom +4 Save Rolls. When active you will summon the most powerful toad summon “Gamabunta.” Demon Inheritance: Roll 1d10 die to determine which of the tail demons (See Demons) you will attempt to capture in your body. You have 3 chances to successfully obtain the demon before Demon Inheritance is no longer available. Harem no Jutsu: Turn into a sexy female or male to stun all enemies for 1d4 rounds. Enemy makes a DC 20 will save. Kage Bunshin no Jutsu: Create a shadow clone of yourself. The shadow clone copies all of your stats and techniques, but has ½ your hit points. You'll turns are at the same time. When the shadow clone is destroyed make a DC 15+½ level Fortitude Save or become stun for 1d6 rounds. Oiroki no Jutsu: Turn into a sexy female or male to stun the enemy for 1d4 rounds. Enemy makes a DC 20 will save.

| Tyler Do'Urden02-15-07, 01:27 PM | Yeah, we've got that (http://www.amazon.com/BESM-Revised-Core-Role-Playing-Game/dp/1894938526). |
| Tempest Stormwind02-15-07, 02:09 PM | Even if you don't want to use BESM (which I wouldn't recommend; BESM was balanced by drunken monkeys who were also on fire at the time), you do not need a new class for this. What you need is imagination. (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=589061) As you can see, it works perfectly well with existing material, just by changing a few names and being thematic in your choices. |

I am using this thing you call an imagination. I'm just making character classes because I want to test out if I can create classes without making one or two of them broken vs the rest. I have a story background for this and I think it will work out great. Basically its the post-Naruto era where Naruto is an old Hokage. To keep the group together, I'll make them all in Kohona or one of the other villages. More of less they will go on missions and as they rank up in levels they will advance to genin, chunnin, jounin, then at lvl 20 they can either become an elite ninja or challenge the Hokage for his position. And this is the bare basics of this campaign. |
| The_Shaman02-15-07, 04:16 PM | Here's something to keep you busy, half1337: make a CR 11 Naruto build with only bard levels, magical beast racial HDs, Lords of Madness, three cups of Darjeeling tea and a cookie. Here's the cookie to get you started: :cookie: . Good luck! |
| Djief02-15-07, 04:21 PM | isn't there a D20 naruto setting out there somewhere on the net? www.narutod20.com/ Djief |
| Half1337Dragons02-15-07, 05:01 PM | Hey no dissing:D . I only want input on balance or not. |
| Djief02-15-07, 05:07 PM | balance based on what? |
| teshen02-15-07, 05:35 PM | So you want to know if something with No skills No skill points d10 hit die Good base attack Good fortitude save Good reflex save Good will save A strong, unique spell like ability every other level is balanced? Add skills and skill points... and I'll tell you no. Unless of course you intend for this character to fight with his hands... since he has no increase in his 1d3 fist damage and would provoke an attack of opportunity every time he tried to do so... it might be balanced. :rolleyes: :D |
| Animana02-15-07, 05:49 PM | I believe he said the ninja does not CC skills, so I think every skill is on their list. |
| The_Shaman02-15-07, 08:53 PM | Also, a lot of the abilities seem replicable with spells/psionic powers: check the psi-build for ideas. Mind you, at lvl 3 having a DC 20 huge-range stun power at will is a bit bad :) |
| Ariath Ska'Vhor02-15-07, 08:57 PM | Me and my friends have talked about it and realised it's east to make viable naruto builds (among other animes) using the Tome of Battle. I don't have any builds with me right now, but we have made them out of sheer boredom and lack of anything else to do. |
| periscope02-15-07, 11:11 PM | actually you can probably adapt it from TOB and psionic material with a little bit of clever thinking. this is assuming you use the modifications to humans that we have in our campaigns (dont worry, we modified the 1/2 elf and orc). everything as normal for a human+ an additional bonus but this has to be a feat like skill focus, alertness, diligent, agile, etc. can choose 2 skills and have them always as class skills regardless of classes and multiclassing (for most naruto builds these will be hide and move silently or disable device). Naruto is a gestalt warblade/psychic warrior or psion. The warblade has used an alteration that gives up armor and shield proficiency for a luck bonus to ac equal to his cha mod +1 per 5 levels, possibly applying to his saves, IUS and SUS feats (plus the counts as magic and such and such at higher levels). His 9 tailed demon fox state is the form of doom power with a little theatrical license. Bite of the wolf and claws of the beast along with form of doom seems to be the total of it. not sure of his sexy jutsu or shadow clone (i dont have hyperconscious :weep: ). his spiraling sphere is dissipating touch augmented (not a power gamer so im not sure how much it can be augmented) to really high levels. He can use the hustle power which is why he seems so fast. He would probably use a lot of tiger claw strikes along with some diamond mind and stone claw maneuvers (the ones that replace you saves with a skill check and the DR stone claw ones). Possibly giving up access to White raven in exchange for Devoted spirit (not sure if many would allow that though). Rock lee is a crusader/not sure (there is just something missing but I cant quite put my finger on it) that gave up armor and shield prof for a sacred bonus equal to his cha +1 per 5 levels, possibly applying his saves. Many of the healing maneuvers and stone dragon strikes and DR maneuvers fit him perfectly (seemingly all brute force and second win). Neji and Hinata are warblades or swordsages/psion (seer) that specialize in the Diamond mind disciplines. the hearing the air stance can be a general Byakugan while the ubiquitous vision and touchsight would seem to cover the zeroing in part. clairvoyant sense would seem to help with the "see through things" part. the 64 strikes could be dissipating touch coupled with a boost that stunned the opponent. |
