Message: <blockquote data-quote="LuisCarlos17f" data-source="post: 8026455" data-attributes="member: 6802378">Ninja as base class had got its own handbook in AD&D, and with kits, the equivalent to subclasses. If I am sincere I imagine them as "martial adepts", classes with (ki) maneuvers, special powers in the middle between at-will and once-encounter, from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tome_of_Battle:_The_Book_of_Nine_Swords" target="_blank">"Tome of Battle: Book of the Nine Swords"</a>. How to explain it better? it helps to sell more the samurai and ninja as martial adept classes than the swordsage or the warblade. It's about the concept of the archetype. A good archetype should to create a fiction story without gameplay at all, or you could notice what class it's with only watching the picture of the PC.* I start to wonder maybe this is not about how to produce D&D to be sold in the Asian market, but how to create the right pieces to be used by the own Asian fandom or 3PPs to produce Wuxia for D&D players.* Sohei is like a monk, but with armour and "ki frenzy". It could be a martial adept.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.d20pfsrd.com/alternative-rule-systems/path-of-war/[/URL][URL unfurl="true"]https://sites.google.com/site/pathfinderdspwiki/home/dreamscarred-press#TOC-Path-of-War[/URL]* WotC could work with Asian companies for coproductions, but we know they would rather to keep complete control about the new IPs could be created.* <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_horror" target="_blank">J-Horror</a> has got a rich mythology. Ravenloft had got some dark domains with "silk & jade" cultures. Why not a J-Horror version of game-live shows as Critical Role?* Hasbro could produce a new TV conquest show. The contestants are young applicant mangaka and they have only to play D&D as in Critical Role. The DM take turns, and the winner will be hired to publish a manga. The "losers" could find some patron to publish webcomics.</blockquote>
