Another Day, Another botched robbery, another sighting. Who is this mysterius man, he appears to show up only during small time robberies and it appears local store owners are actually paying him for his services?!
- Personal: Business minded and driven, he is the kind of person who makes a plan and adhere to it. Also sort of a neatfreak.
★ LIST THESE SIX STATS FROM BEST TO WORST:
- Strength 4
- Agility 6
- Power 2
- Intelligence 3
- Constitution 1
- Perception. 5
*Please see the next tab for an explanation on these.
★ POWER UTILITY: Magic
★ POWER:
- Enhanced Agility: He is not very good a ninja. He know a bit of stealth and can wield his katana allright. Really, he never got past the beginners training. Instead his blade has enhanced him in stupid ways. Such as letting him to move silently at great speed but only attacking from the same exact spot like the ninjas in movies do.
- Fox Mirage. The ability to move with extra speed and create afterimages when he move, making it harder to focus or hit him. Its one of the boons of his otherwise shitty sword.
- Hand To Hand: He is actually pretty damn good for someone who is otherwise a real scrub. He has trained in several styles and always found fighting without relying on a unreliable magic blade to be to his advantage.
★ WEAPONS: Foxblade: A sword he acquired over ebay, turns out it was a actually imbued with magic. It's edge is dull, but the blessed blade does not break. This also means it cannot be sharpened. It follows him around, and he cannot keep it more than a few hundred meters away from it without it appearing somewhere convenient for him to trip on.
★ GADGETS: Smokebombs, so many smokebombs. All cheaply made out of easy to find chemicals and household items.

★ BIOGRAPHY

From the Saintly Economist:
Rent-A-Ninja, Do Gooders go Corperate?!
The RENT-A-NINJA sure isn't the most inspiring of heroes out there. In fact, you could argue the morality of a man who takes a check to guard the neighbourhood. Then again, he seems to be more efficient then rent a cop with their tasers, bad cardio and misplaced sense of authority.
He has denied any and all interviews citing security concerns, but his site Rent-A-Ninja.Jpn do have a FAQ that tells us that he also do security at events and festivals. It also claims he trained under four different grand masters. Whether or not this is true is anyone guess. Then again, is this so strange. With multiple recessions, the economy down the drain. Do we not need to keep ourself afloat. And isn't PR something more heroes should invest in?
I see Rent-A-Ninja as an evolution inspired by such heroes as Booster Gold and Blue Beetle. A man who can do good, and turn a profit while doing so.
- Personal:
*Born to a normal family, Sota Grew up with a fascination for ninjas. Such was his fascination that he ran away from home and made himself end up in the notorious "Crow Orphanage" where the Tengu Clan was prone to lift kids from to train.
*He ended up one of the "lucky few" He trained hard and long, spending years as a lowly jounin rank ninja. He watched his older peers go off on glorious adventures. In fact, the turn ver and lack of returns would concern any sane employee
*They sent ninjas out in bulk to fight heroes such as Batman and Green Arrow and nobody ever returned but the few "High Level Ninjas" who fought the heroes head on. And those often ended up taking their life out of shame. Or in some cases, turned into cyborgs to go have another, "Last Fight".
*This didn't concern Soto. He was paid and clothed, fed and given a bed. And he got to learn awesome things. He was a decidedly average ninja. His skill would never net him a higher rank.
*Then one day. The people hiring stopped hiring ninjas. And the man who financed the whole thing, became bankrupt. And like that, hundred of almost trained ninjas was let go.
*Luckily, many like Sota, had been trained at everyday skills to help them infiltrate society. Sota became a accountant.
*He lived a boring 8 to 10 hours a day job, went out drinking with his corporate, former ninjas and now office friends. They all reminiscence about the old days and drank their existence into a foggy pleasant state of numbness.
*Of course, Sota decided he wanted more from life and he went to the US, to Second Saint City to exact.. Here he found heroes and villains galore and ti gave him an idea.
He bought a cheap fox mask and a terribly made katana of Ebay that just happened to turn out to be magical. Sadly, being magical did not make it any better of sword.
*He started up the REnt-A-Ninja business once his money ran out. He is to poor to buy a ticket home, and he like the less stuffy, less demanding lifestyle of being a hobo ninja for hire.
