On to the actual ninja class.Quozl is a novel of furry interest penned by Alan Dean Foster, and illustrated by Jim Gurney (of later Dinotopia fame), published by Ace Books in May 1989 and released as an ebook by Open Road Media on November 4, 2014. Most are focussed on stealth and combat, but magic, social skills, and interactions with natures are options too. Here, ninjas are members of a ninja clan. The introduction asks what a ninja is and why it's a class now. D&D 4e features the ninja as an option for the executioner assassin class, with non-Eastern ninjas potentially being followers of Vecna.īut I digress. It's essentially a modified rogue, and about as useful as a rogue. The Complete Adventurer introduced a 3e ninja base class. Oh, and it also comes with hardcoded loyalties to a ninja clan, and if you don't accept their missions the entire clan is going to stab you.ĭ&D 3e introduced the master ninja and ninja spy prestige classes from the new Oriental Adventures.
I'm not a big fan of the class it would be sufficient if the ninja pretended to be a fighter in public. OA ninjas get some thief skills and Ki powers that eventually allow them to walk through walls. The human-only OA ninja has to have a second class, because it's ninja class is super secret. Oriental Adventures brought us a PC ninja class. It's even worse than the OD&D NPC samurai class, which has custom dismemberment rules and a class-specific martial arts system. It even has a special sixth saving throw category that allow a ninja to flat-out ignore enemy attacks. The first ninja class I can remember is the OD&D NPC ninja class, which is so overpowered it's not even funny. I'm pretty sure there were homebrew ninjas in D&D pretty much from day one on. Before we start with the introduction, let's talk about the history of the D&D ninja.
