Requesting: Rule Replace

Children

Children (newborns to age 11) are handled differently from other characters. They do not have classes or levels. They begin with the same ability score package as ordinaries (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8), but their ability scores are reduced as follows: -3 Str, -1 Dex, -3 Con, -1 Int, -1 Wis, -1 Cha.

Children have 1d4 hit points plus their Constitution modifier (minimum 1 hit point). They have no skills, feats, action points, or occupations. Their base attack bonus is +0, they have a +0 modifier on all saving throws (plus any modifiers for high or low ability scores), and their Reputation bonus is +0. Children have a +0 modifier to Defense and a normal speed of 20 feet. Children have no effective attacks and should be treated as noncombatants.

When a child turns 12, he or she is considered a young adult and takes his or her first level in one of the six basic classes. At that point, the character becomes an ordinary (or hero, in some cases).

That rule has to be replaced for Kakashi's and Itachi's sake i think...

Just consider that the age redution granted by the genius nin feat to occupations also applies to this rule. Problem solved, i think.

Kakashi became genin with 5 and Chuunin with 6. That is kinda really out of this rule, if genius nin applies to this rule, then it would be really astonishing how he made it too chuunin with no level...

Keldon is right. Otherwise, a nice gm would see that in Naruto, almost every kiddo has a level.

I would just say that genius nin lets you reduce your age to become a ninja and makes the maximum age of being a child reduced by that many years also.
