|
|
The Sannins seem to be highly powerful and able to create thier own personal techniques. So wouldnt't a Sannin be more of a prestige class than a title? |

Sannin means Three (people). The term is Densetsu no Sannin, the Legendary Three. Densetsu no Sannin is as much a prestige class as "George W. Bush" or "Arnold Schwarzenegger" is. _________________ "It's like making a cake, but instead of a cake it's a game and instead of frosting I have no life."

I was just comparing the 3 charecters from the show and how they were converted into the game. I know they are epic level charecters with thier ablities and such but I was just figureing they were more into devolping special techiques and ablities that no other ninja seems to know or have the ablity to posses in the series. |

Sannin is also (at least to my knowledge) a play on Sennin which is hermit in Japanese, considering how all have left their village and more or less, are hermits. |

I'm sure they do develop their own techniques. They, especially Orochimaru, probably have several unique ones that have never been seen. The problem with that is, they don't use 'em in the show, so the literally haven't been seen. _________________ "I'm no ordinary pervert... I'm a SUPER PERVERT!!!"

Creating one's own techniques is just another way of becoming more powerful and improving one's skill. The Hokages were never part of the sannin but nevertheless had their own jutsu. Sannin is just a title of reverence, to be compared with...Archmage or something. _________________ Oy, this is going to be troublesome *sigh* |

Yeah, true, but someone's probably argue that Archmage is a prestiege class. SO, to beat them to the punch, archmage is also a term used to refer to any powerful wizard/sorceror, even if they don't have levels in the bloody class. _________________ "I'm no ordinary pervert...
