The ninja stands vigilant outside the cave which serves as an entrance to Clan of the Mist. He stands under an overhang invisible to people approaching from the road. The ninja's eyes are bright and alert. He is standing so stil. His black suite hides him completely. He is immersed in the black shadows of the overhang. The door to the cave lies behind a curtain of vegetation. The vegetation hides the entrance not giving any hint that and entrance exists. The cave lies on the side of a minor road. The area around the cave and the sides of the road are paved in loose gravel. If any creature man or otherwise were to step on the gravel, the crunch of the gravel would give away the attackers position. Behind the green curtain, the passage way turns right then left and right again. This blocks of any tell tale light from the other side. The passage through the cave is approximately a kilometer twisting and curving, a perfect place for close quarter fighting. A natural defense position. Beyond the entrance lies a superb green jungle whose grounds are perpetually covered with mist.
Ninja Assassin, it be really nice if you would describe a bit about yourself so that I can flesh out the details. Thanks
The Clan of the Mist did not actually exist a hundred years ago. At that time a leader had led his tribe of 500 looking for new lands to settle in. One of his scouts, Bam Bam had come across the entrance and had discovered the wondrous and magical place inside the tunnel The leader had followed Bam Bam in and saw that the entrance to the cave was actually hidden behind a vegetative curtain. He also noticed that the tunnel curved and flowed in a manner that made it excellent for defense. Close quarter fighting would be needed just to come through. Bam Bam asked the leader to step through into the area beyond the tunnel. Behold, the site that greeted him. There was lush vegetation all around. There was trees and bushes to his left and right curving away into the distance. They were in a small clearing and there were more trees in the front. The entire clearing was covered with a layer of fine mist that twinkled as the sun shone on it. The leader decided to rest in the clearing and asked his followers to move in. The leader noticed the mist clinging to his ankles never disappeared even if the sun was at midday. Over the years the population changed and many died to sickness, oldage, wars abd diseases. Now there remained only less than a hundred warriors.
Bam Bam is an old warrior. He is ravaged by a sickness which does not make him grow old. He has been through the ages, and seen many of his friends die. He has never remarried. After his 1st wife died and he saw all his children doe one by one, he has refused to marry but remain unattached. The latest clan leader is Sally, his old friends great x7 granddaughter. She is as pretty as can be. She is wise and listens to his counsel. Sally has not married yet, as she has not seen anyone that she likes yet. They have fought many wars, some with mercenaries and some as mercenaries. They are called mercs. Among the young ones in the clan is Katie, she dances very well. She will maybe one day become an adept dancer. Her agility is amazing. Her moves smooth without jerks or hesitation. She is quite good-looking. Her skills in dancing are also well used in war. She wields the spear with great skill.
