pinecone Posted May 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 Re: Trust me, I'm an Expert.... Yomi no hanna shukenjo Born Arakawa Yumi Yumi was a fairly normal little girl, her parents were both school teachers in Hiroshima. Things first changed for her when she discovered the power of her body, and all the things she could get people tp do in return for her "surrender" She graduated from High school by means of blackmail and seduction, and then she started hanging out with "bad people". She became a hidden power amoung the Yakuza through a string of boyfriends, the last being Oyabun Kakashi. Stung by her betrayal he stll hunts/stalks her....for rape and murder? or for a romantic reunion? It varies day to day.... She left Kakashi due to her obsession with the Occult. Yet another avenue to power. While traveling, she encountered a sage of the golden demon temple while seducing and humiliating triad enforcers.... The rest...well, as they say, is history....

pinecone Posted June 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Re: Trust me, I'm an Expert.... The Scorpian Ninja are not really Ninjas they're the remnants of the Sohei destroyed by Nobunaga (at the behest of the Red Banner). They merged with some minor clans and survived to modern times. The Red Banner does not consider them a threat to their victory, because the modern Scorpians use Sorcerous Taijutsu, not Chi mastery. Scorpians are the ultimate "strike ninjas" many storys that speak of ninja as unstoppable killing machines are based on the exploits of scorpian Ninja.

pinecone Posted June 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Re: Trust me, I'm an Expert.... So who do the Red banner send when they're really peeved, and they want you to know who's after you? Tulpas. Basicly a Tulpa is a "thought made real",a basic mastering of the Mara, any monk worth his salt ought to be able to do it..... OK, it's really hard. But Tulpa masters are amoung the elite in the Red Banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinecone Posted June 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Re: Trust me, I'm an Expert.... Tulpas can take most any form, being a dream afterall...but most take the form of an idealized human. A tulpa should be impossable to tell from a "normal" person, but the inherant corruption of the Red Banner shows it's self in their Tulpas...they are always "unnatural".
