TONIGHT, YOU BECOME NINJAS.

However, the path is not easy.

Within our temple lie three trials:
COMBAT, STEALTH, and SPIRIT.

Only those who overcome all three shall be permitted to stand before me.

SETTING

YOU ARE NOBODY YET

Deep in the mountains, shrouded in mist, lies an ancient temple. Gathered here are nameless disciples.
You are among them.

Once you step through the gate, your connection to the outer world is severed.
There is only one way back——to be acknowledged as a Ninja.

The Master speaks little. He tells you only the names of the three trials.

THE THREE TRIALS

THREE TRIALS

TRIAL 01

闘

TRIAL OF COMBATSTRIKE & EVADE

Draw your blade. Launch your shuriken.

What is truly tested here is not just your striking technique.
Evading attacks——dodging, stepping back, and reading the distance. That too is the art of the ninja.

Swing your arm, and your sword will respond. Aim and throw, and your shuriken will fly. No complex rules are needed.
Move your body and master the ninja arts.

TRIAL 02

隠

TRIAL OF STEALTHVANISH IN SHADOWS

Those who are spotted meet their end.

The essence of a ninja is not victory, but passing through unseen.
The guard’s gaze, illuminated areas, and timing your movement. A rushed step will ruin everything.

Here, those who can wait will survive longer than those who rush.

TRIAL 03

心

TRIAL OF SPIRITUNRAVEL THE SECRETS

Escape from the sealed room.

Swords are useless here. What you must use is Ninjutsu.
Touch to move, manipulate from a distance——harness Ninjutsu to solve the mysteries hidden within this temple.

And this trial can never be solved alone.
What your allies see is different from what you see. Whether you can put that into words will determine the outcome of your trial.

FINAL TRIAL

師

THE MASTERTHE FINAL CHALLENGE

When you overcome the three trials, the final obstacle standing before you is the Master himself.

The battlefield spans three chambers. Clear one, and advance to the next.

In this final challenge, everything you have cultivated will be tested.
Your skill, your judgment, and your teamwork.

THE CREED

RULES OF THE INITIATE

Five principles passed down by those who achieved full mastery before you.

  1. SPEAK UPYour allies can see you in this world too.
    Share what you notice and find immediately.
    Calling out to each other is the key to overcoming the trials.
  2. NEVER FACE IT ALONEAll three trials are designed so that they cannot be cleared without two or more people.
  3. REACH OUT YOUR HANDSGrasp, pull, throw.
    Touch what is before you and carve your own path. Do not hesitate.
  4. EVASION IS ALSO AN ARTDo not focus solely on striking.
    Dodging, hiding, and waiting are also honorable tactics.
  5. DO NOT RUSHYour training time is 45 minutes.
    Those who panic are spotted first; those who rush are struck down first.
