Character Point Rate
Ninjas pride themselves in their ability to attack unseen. Speed and stealth is the way to go for them.The Ninja's character point rate is:
- Mental x 0.01; with an additional +0.2 for every level obtained in Ninja Reflexes (total of +0.8 bonus possible).
- A ninja who gets all 3 levels of Ninja Weapon Mastery gets to roll a 1d% increased by Mental as a percentage for extra character points. This is for each type, giving a total of three 1d% rolls for extra points.
- A ninja who gets all 4 levels of Ninja Speed gets to roll 2d% increased by Mental as a percentage for extra character points. The ninja can only get this bonus 4 times.
- A ninja who gets at least 1 level in every ninja skill (one ninja weapons mastery type) gets their End of Session Bonus as extra character points.
- A ninja's End of Session Bonus rate is your character point rate increased by 1/2 React. So if your character point rate is 1.5 and your React is 60, you would take 1.5 x 30 to get 45 extra character points at the end of the session. The GM can of course reward extra character points based on role playing.
