Mission Rules

## Introduction

Missions are the primary means of gaining EXP and Ryo in Ninkai Taisen. Shinobi society have been built around accepting and carrying out missions from either their village leadership or from outsiders looking to pay for work to be done. Missions can vary from simple things such as looking for a lost cat to something as complex as pursuing and bringing in a wanted criminal. Upon successful mission completion, the shinobi will receive a percentage of the Ryo with the remainder going towards the village. While some Missions can be taken solo, there are some that are completely required to be done in a group of at least 4 shinobi.

## Mission Ranks

Mission Ranks will determine the difficulty, word count, and rewards that can be obtained. However, a user may only perform a mission equal or lower than their current rank. So a C Rank shinobi may not undergo a B Rank Mission, but may perform C Rank and D Rank missions. Each rank of difficulty will have a certain amount of required participants and whether it can be performed at your own pace and/or be modded.

 **D** | Menial Task Missions
 **C** | Safe Shinobi Missions
 **B** | Dangerous Shinobi MIssions
 **A** | State-Level Shinobi Missions
 **S** | Classified Shinobi Missions

## Own Pace Missions

Own Pace missions are E-B Rank missions that have their own specific objectives that the participants must perform and execute. The participants will not have a Mod with them to carry out the mission and they can do these missions at their own pace. However, without having a Mod with them means they will be the ones to craft the narrative of the mission. They will be required to fulfill all of the Mission Objectives and write the minimum word count in order to gain Mission Accomplishment.

Shinobi may only be in 1 Own Pace Mission at any time. In order to perform another, the shinobi must finish their current Own Pace Mission before getting into another. These are generally faster than Modded Missions, but will grant lesser rewards.

## Modded Missions

Modded Missions are specific missions that have their own specific objectives and the participants are required to have a MM (Mission Moderator) to carry out these missions. The Mission Mod's job is to craft the narrative and guide the shinobi throughout the Mission Objectives. After the first round, the Mission Mod will roll Initiative for all participants and the initiative will be the posting order. Throughout the Modded Mission, the shinobi are encouraged to roleplay their character thoughtfully and encouraged to develop their characters. However, the MM will guide them through Mission Objectives.

MMs will also, if necessary, play the villains/enemies in the Mission if a Modded Battle is required. Modded Missions, due to how much longer they generally take, will offer greater rewards. A user may only be in 1 Modded Mission at a time, but may be in 1 Own Pace Mission at the same time.

## Modded Battles

In B, A, and S Rank Modded Missions, the likelihood of there being a Modded Battle are quite high. They will be a definite occurrence in A and S Rank Missions. A and S Rank Modded Battles will have a chance at causing death. The "big bads" will have their rank equal to the mission ranking meanwhile any 'fodder' will be of 1 or 2 ranks lower.

## Mission Rewards

There are 2 branches of Mission Rewards:

1. Mission Accomplished: These rewards are given and posted by the mod who approves Mission Completion. Those given Mission Accomplishment will gain the full rewards of the Mission
2. Mission Failure: These rewards are given and posted by the mod who approves Mission Completion. Those given Mission Failure will gain a lesser amount of Mission Rewards. These missions WILL NOT count towards promotion.

**Bonus Rewards**: Bonus Rewards are given for those that go above and beyond. Doing +50% of the Word Count will grant an additional +25% EXP and Ryo. You may only gain this reward once per mission.

**Synergy Rewards**: When performing a Mission with your Team, you will gain a bonus depending on how many of your team show up and gain Mission Accomplishment.

1. You and 1 Member of your Team: +25% EXP and Ryo
2. You and 2 Members of your Team: +50% EXP and Ryo
3. You and all members of your team: +50% EXP and +100% Ryo.

When gaining Bonus Rewards and Synergy Rewards, the percentages add on to one another. If someone gets Bonus Rewards and perform their quest with all of your team, the user will gain a bonus +75% EXP and +125% Ryo.
