NAME OF CLASS: How Not To Be Seen (Introduction)
PROFESSOR ToT NAME: Ninja-san

General information: This seminar is held daily at noon in a small field just outside the Weeping Forest. Ninja-san encourages students interested in learning stealth techniques and techniques for spotting hidden beings and objects to attend one or more sessions.

Mechanics: Roll 1d20 five times, RP out the results.

Section 1 - Arriving at class: 1d20
1-2: You're either stupid or clumsy: you showed up for class ... visibly. Tiny ninja vulpes shuriken sting you in multiple spots until you get out of range. Ow. Fail.
3-9: You found a good hiding spot, and you're pretty sure you weren't spotted getting there. Pass.
10-11: You found a good spot, but some portion of your body is showing. The vulpes put a couple of shuriken into the exposed bit to let you know you're visible. You should probably go before they circle around and find other bits of you to assault. Fail.
12-19: You found a good hiding spot, and you're pretty sure you weren't spotted getting there. Pass.
20: You are a very sneaky person indeed. Nobody even suspects you're here. Pass; you may adjust your section 2 roll by +1 or -1.

Section 2 - Practical application: 1d20 x 3 posts
1-5: You can't for the life of you spot any other students. Are you sure you're not the only one here? Fail.
6-10: You saw someone arriving, but you don't see them now. Still, you scribble down their name/description on your paper. Pass.
11-14: You didn't see the stack of worksheets on your way in. Or you forgot your pen - or the ninja vulpes lifted it silently. Either way, you can't turn in what you don't have ... Fail.
15-19: You spotted someone. You write down their name/description and note their hiding spot. Pass.
20: You spotted someone - AND you spotted the ninja vulpes stealing some small item from them. You write down who, where, and what was stolen. Pass; you may adjust your section 3 roll by +1 or -1. This bonus stacks if you roll it more than once.

Section 3 - Turn in your work: 1d20
1-5: You slip your paper into the box without anyone spotting you. You think. Congratulations, you've passed this session!
6-15: The box is almost impossible to approach unseen. How does Ninja-san expect anyone to manage this? You try anyway - but a rain of shuriken lets you know that the vulpes definitely saw you. Fail.
16-20: Nobody saw you put your worksheet into the box, but it's certainly in there. Congratulations, you've passed this session!

Bonus Mechanics:
Extra Credit - Spot Ninja-san: 1d100, optional
1-98: Nope. You don't see him. Is he even here?
99-100: You see a little flicker of motion over there. Is that a figure? Yes, it is. Ninja-san waves at you, looking pleased. Then you blink. Where'd he go? Later, after class, you find a silver seed in your pocket. (Quote ToT Secretly a Ninja in your post.)



YOU LOSE/FINISH THIS RP WHEN...

- You are finished rolling all 5 dice. That means you have to make ANOTHER rp to try again!

A day or two of sore muscles and lots of just lying down in bed had the ghoul looking through the open class schedules once again. She wasn't too much of the techy type... and first aid wouldn't exactly help her survive a one hit KO kind of attack (which Caelius was very prone to doing) and uh... There at the end of the list was a class for stealth.

... Might be useful.

Edel didn't know too much about ninjas or ninja-ing about, but she figured she might give it a try. Why not? Now that she was a little more physically adept. Relatively.

Her legs still hurt though.

It didn't take long for Edel to realise what she was supposed to be doing once she arrived at the small field – she couldn't see anybody. Right. She probably should be hiding somewhere as well. The ghoul treaded lightly and found herself a nice bush to duck under. Did anybody see her? Nothing was happening just yet so she had to assume she was doing this right.

... Now what?

Pass

Were those crickets chirping? In the afternoon? ... Yea those were crickets chirping alright.

Nothing was happening. Or Edel couldn't really see much through the bush. Did she get the date or time wrong? Nope, that wasn't the case. If so, then what?

Either she was being really good at this, or just really, really bad. I mean, it was probably a good thing that nobody had spotted her yet... right? Or was there anybody to begin with?

Perhaps for now she should take some comfort with the “I can't see you and you can't see me” mentality. Yep, she was cool with that. emotion_awesome

Fail

Maybe she was trying too hard to spot something that she overlooked the patch of white sticking out of the other bush, being very very obvious. Edel would have face palmed herself at her failtastic oversight but that would have made a noise and given her away.

Polar bear.

POLAR BEAR.

Geez that thing was huge how could she not have seen it? Very carefully and quietly, the ghoul scribbled its description and location down on a very empty sheet of paper.

Pass

Great! Now that she had something to submit, the ghoul quietly crept out of the bush and headed towards the box as covertly as she could. Obviously, it never occurred to her that she should have moved along with the bush. Move the bush along with her. Whatever.

....so.... was this a success? The frost demon couldn't tell at all. Frankly, she was leaving the class even more confused than she was before.

Pass

Nothing to see here, move along now.

And with that, the frost demon trooped off back to her dorm room.
