this is my first post in a while and I'm a bit weary from school and I have an infection in my throat (and yet my parents still make me go to school) Jaded but not broken I am back to sing of my blessings and triumphs.
I will let you in on the life of a ninja (if you read my profile you would know that I am a profesional ninja). first of all there is no prerequisite to being a ninja I for example have wide shoulders like a football player and asthma yet I am still a full fledged ninja. second if you become a ninja dont quite you're day job cause being a ninja doesnt pay well (I actually do it for free for my friends). the first step to becoming a ninja is learning how to soften you're steps. I have practiced softening my footsteps for years and I walk have steps that are as light and quiet as a lotus petal landing on the ground when I'm not even thinking about it. I learned on hard wood floors which squeeked and whined at the slightest pressure so I learned to make my footsteps slowly and evenly so the weight was dispersed evenly. This brings up one thing that you must remember: you dont have to be fast. all of those anime cartoons with ninjas moving faster than the human eye are bogus. If you run then you create more noise and you are more out of control of youreself. which then leads to yet another point: you must learn to control you're body at all times. You're movements have to be conscious ones that you are aware of and in control of. I have trained my body to not have to go to the bathroom all day and to only need to go after school this is an extreme example but it's pretty much as easy as training you're body to wake up at an exact time by either having someone wake you up at that time or by setting an alarm clock wake you up at that time. at a less extreme level you have to learn to control how you're arms move while walking and keeping you're body still and only moving you're chest to breath. breathing is an easy talent to control all you have to do is breath out youre mouth to optomize control and take deep yet slow breathes so you have a lot of oxygen in you're blood but you are not being heard. now lets talk about working at day vs. at night. at night you can visually hide from sight but if you are seen by someone even if you're clothes are normal it raises some suspition to be seen at night. during the day you want to wear normal clothes so you dont raise to much suspision towards you. if the area is crowded blend into the crowd and dont bring attention towards yourself. if the area is less crowded stay out of the open and cut between buildings and if you have to go out in the open act natural. Now theres working at night which is a bit more dangerous yet with more hiding spots. you will want to wear dark clothes but not to wierd like a full ninja suit. if you are seen then dressing up like a ninja will raise some questions so keep you're clothes dark yet sensible. Stay out of the open and out of sight as much as possible because being seen at night will raise suspition even if you're wearing normal clothes. use cover as much as possible like between buildings or in alleys. stay out of high traffic areas so the possibility of being seen by a random passerby will be less likely. dont walk on gravel or other loud surfaces stay on grass or other soft surfaces to soften you're foot steps. some missions will be to listen in on a conversation or to just watch somebodies movement so depending on the mission alter you're strategy and use common sense.
thats the basics of being a ninja I hope this will come in handy and all I ask is that you dont use this info to assassinate someone because that kind of dirty work is below me. good luck and remember: if you are what you eat I can be you by morning wink
