Help with Ninjitsu

[Sir Blayse]

Ok, Ninjitsu includes several physical skills, but the W.P.'s are not listed in the skill section. Does anyone have any idea what the bonuses should be for these special weapons?

I looked up the Shikomi-Zue, and its a Sword. That is why I listed it the Way I listed it.

IMHO-I'll give you the Sword part, but the Cane would be Either a staff, or Blunt. It still has "Hidden blade Staff" in the
wording-correct me if I am wrong. & I just now checked the link. You'd have to show me a Shikomi zue. On a aside, I work at
Ross, & this little old lady beat one of my cashiers over the head & face with a cane, she had bruises....... Either Staff or Blunt. It also depends on how long the blade is; the implication is that it's Very short. Again Spear. unless the blade is almost
long as the cane itself.... DU Have a Shikomi-zue, Drewkitty?

shikomi-zue---> WP Sword & WP Fighting Stick
might also be WP Paired, Sword and Fighting Stick

[Grandil]

shikomi-zue---> WP Sword & WP Fighting Stick
might also be WP Paired, Sword and Fighting Stick

the description is a spring-loaded one. but if you want to beat me over the head after its bee taken out of the staff, thats ok too.

W.P. Shuriken = W.P. Small Thrown Weapons
W.P. Fukiya (Blow Gun) = Is there a W.P. Blow Gun somewhere?
W.P. Fukimi-Bari (Mouth Darts) = I'd modify W.P. Slingshot for this one, cut the bonuses in half.
W.P. Kawanga (Rope/Grapple) = Isn't there a W.P. Grappling hook in one of the Palladium Fantasy books?
W.P. Knife = W.P. Knife.
W.P. Kyoketsu-Shoge = W.P. Grappling Hook.
W.P. Manriki-Gusari = W.P. Chain
W.P. Nekode (Cat Claws) = W.P. Claws, you can find that in this forum.
W.P. Shikomi-Zue (Hidden Blade Staff) = W.P. Spear.

Since the name is used for different types of hidden blade weapons, we all get to be right and wrong.

If they are trained with a Cane sword like weapons then it's more like a wp sword and fighting stick. But if it's more like a staff/spear then it's staff and spear.


I think mouth darts and blow guns are listed in Mystic China.
