Edo Tensei

I know this jutsu is kinda taboo.. but i want to share a story of an awsome battle i did during a casual epic campaign of naruto d20.

our group was on our way back from an S-rank mission, an assassination of a land of waves missing-nin, smthing like Cr 26... we are all between Cr 23 and Cr 28... i am 28... i know the level gap is kinda extreme but thats not the point... upon ariving in the leaf village we find that it is under attack by sand ninjas, who in our campaign world had grown deep resentment of our slow takover of their village's operations... the campaign world sets naruto uzumaki as the hokage, an old man... clearly outnumbered and outmached i decide its time to show the party the new jutsu i picked up w/ an epic feat, and a lot of training... edo tensei... we succeed in capturing 3 low level sand ninjas and i take them into a shelter where i begin the jutsu... the other party members are busy protecting key structures and buildings in the city. (ie. water supply, food storage, power, prison) so i am free w/ these 3 lower level (12-14 if i remember) chuunins from the sand village whom i offer as sacrifices to complete the jutsu... i reserect the bodies of none other than the 3 sannins... which causes my gm to flip... lol... we get into a long argument of the use of this jutsu,,, which he allowed me to take, so i won. after that little discussion i begin to order them to decimate the sand ninja... after the battle i do not know what to do with the 3 saninns, so i elect to abandon the near destroyed village and attack other hidden villages, due to the great strength and power of our 3 new slaves... midway into a raikage assasination "mission" the rest of my party turns on me and i am forced to use the saninns on them as well as attack them myself... they loose... GM= pissed, other players = frustrated me= content... i know the jutsu if OP... but seriously it was the most awesome thing ever to have those characters under my complete control.

Bah... a wise GM would stop you with one sentence:

"But the sanins are still alive"

Hastur: If Naruto is an old man, the sannin are dead Razz

.

As for the campaign goings on: I'd simply make the raikage a super-dude, give him some bad-assed guards and, while we're at it, an excorcist of legend who happened to hear of the goings-on...and excorcise the three sannin back to where they came from.

in all honesty, sannin aren't all that hard to beat if you play smart.
If your gm was smart he could of easily exploited your weaknesses. Twisted Evil

Or wondered how your character who I assume is somewhat loyal to your village and friends considered it ok to begin destroying life with no provacation and when your close friends said it was a bad idea decided it was ok to eliminate them as well.

By that level one would figure some sense of friendship would have developed.

I'm sure you had fun, thats fine but, from what I understand you basically killed the game for the others playing with you.

True, true. But then I deem it highly possible that in sixty years, the Akatsuki will have tracked him down and nailed him :-p.

Unless Naruto took care of them. Of course Naruto most likely ended Orochimaru first. Either way somethings gonna kill them off eventually.

I just re-read the technique, how did you get your hands on the soil the sannin were buried under? Assuming they were buried. Your GM could have just said they all died in other places or were cremated. I assume you were within the level range but, you also appear to require the coffins, a cup of pure water and a healthy plant before you can begin.

We can assume when Oro used this jutsu he had all this prepared ahead of time and just did a standard summoning technique to bring them when he needed them since it says if the user is within two miles of the creature and it's coffin it can be summoned as a move action. But, you still need to prepare them ahead of time.

Well, let's not spoil it for him. Needless to say, you might want to pick up reading again, Athildur. Things have gotten very interesting...[/i]

What chapter are we on? I left off awhile back when Shipuuden came on and didn't totally suck. Then again, they are doing that 3 episode combat thing again.

Athildur: 0_o Oh. I made the assumption that when you said "200+" that you meant you were 200 chapters behind. Well, you know what they say about assuming...

Leave spoilers out in case others don't want them (or at least warn). Don't be an ass. Not everyone likes to read manga.

Ah, works for me lol. My party likes to try to sneak things past me so, I am suspicious of players at times. They had their chance of object to your doing things, didn't sound like they tried to stop you by asking either.

Nice timing on the jutsu!

it sounds like your GM was a little out of it. He flipped out when you summoned the sannin but he had to know that you went and got the soil from the graves, he had to know that you bought 3 gold coffins. If you had all of this than i think it would be noticible. And you should have tried to summon the third and fourth kage instead cause they are SO good.

*cough* Correct me if I'm wrong but I was always under impression that it wasn't ever revealed what was in the sealed coffin. Razz

Yea it was never actually shown anywhere. Leading a bunch of speculation on why they specifically did not bring back the one who sealed the Kyuubi.

the third coffin wasnt summoned because it couldnt make it past all the shadow shurries (i believe). But it makes the most sense that it was going to be the fourth hokage. Who else would be summoned... and who would scare the third that much. It is all speculation but it seems reasonable

watch it turn out that the last coffin had some crappy chuunin in it and the fourth is alive in some way

I was trying to find it but for some reason my discs are a mess @_@
