Niwatori

Niwatori was the Rokugani word for "Chickens". Way of the Scorpion, p. 89

It was also the word Shosuro used with her first year apprentices, members of the Scorpion secret operative. These black-garbed assassins used to carry nageteppo, little egg bombs. During an action a Dragon misheard the word niwatori as "Ninja, tori!" ("Ninja, do what I say!"), and it was assumed the assassins were called "ninja". Since that moment the "ninja" myth was born.
