hidden cloud mission board vol. 2.2: in service to lightning "people do not lack strength; they lack will." These missions are repeatable and tailored around the concept of endurance, which can be interpreted in whatever way is most useful to your narrative goals: training chakra reserves; enhanced durability, stamina, or willpower; survival skills; pain tolerance; whatever might be applicable. The point is to dig deep, ground yourself, and fight through the limits of what you believed you were capable of. We protect what is ours. d-rank missions. MAID SERVICE MISSION RANK: D NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-2 DESCRIPTION: Being at such a significant elevation, one would think that the glittering blue of the Kage tower would remain relatively pristine… alas, it is prone to filth, and must be cleaned with regularity. Genin may be conscripted to window-washing, file-organizing, floor-cleaning, or any other number of lengthy, labor-intensive tasks to keep the tower sparkling and monumental. 1. [UTAGAWA MATOI] [KYUUMU SUZAKU] In progress x 2. 3. [Repeatable] COURIER SERVICE MISSION RANK: D NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-2 DESCRIPTION: Paperwork must regularly make its way from the Raikage in Kumogakure to the Daimyo in Sancho; this is not a short journey, but it must be made short. There is little time for rest. Deliver a bundle of scrolls from the Hidden Cloud to the capital quickly, safely, and discreetly. The route is straightfoward and frequently monitored by regular shinobi patrols, so chance of notable threats is slim, but roadblocks, travelers in need, or inclement weather all may seek to hamper your progress. 1. [UTAGAWA MATOI] [JOKYU KATSUO] In progress x 2. [IKAZUCHI OSOI] Abandoned x 3. 4. [Repeatable] c-rank missions. HUNTING SERVICE MISSION RANK: C NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-4 DESCRIPTION: The woodsmen of Nagiso are calling for shinobi assistance: an unnaturally massive animal has disrupted the usual flow of their ecosystem, obliterating the local flora and ruining the villagers’ hunting schedules. It will take a few days to track the creature; once found, kill it, and help the woodsmen to butcher it for meat. The animal might be a giant boar, a rabid stag, a rodent of unusual size, or something in that vein. 1. [JOKYU KATSUO] [UMECHIKA] Complete x 2. [KYUUMU RISI] [YAMATSU] Complete x 3. 4. [Repeatable] TAILING SERVICE MISSION RANK: C NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-2 DESCRIPTION: A businessperson hailing from Sancho is requesting that a tiny team of shinobi follow one of their business partners, as part of an effort to root out corruption within their company. The business partner is docking in Moyama on Sunday; the mission is to follow them for one week as they conduct their business in Moyama, writing a detailed report of all their comings and goings. The team must be small in order to avoid detection, but surveillance must also be around-the-clock, demanding constant travel and very little sleep. In your iteration of the mission, the company may deal in: 1. art, 2. textiles, 3. herbs, 4. hospitality, 5. medicine, 6. food supply, or any other industry you can think of; the target of the tailing mission may be: 1. involved with the local yakuza, 2. taking bribes from ‘preferred’ clientele, 3. involved in a domestic dispute, 4. complicit in insider trading, 5. fencing goods, 6. completely innocent of any wrongdoing, or any other circumstance you can think of. To add a little random chance to the scenario, roll a 1d6 on each list and conduct the mission according to those parameters! 1. [KYUUMU RISI] [UMECHIKA] Complete x 2. 3. [Repeatable] CATCHING SERVICE MISSION RANK: C NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-4 DESCRIPTION: It's a race against time: a criminal has broken out of Akazaya’s jailhouse and is fleeing for the eastern coast. Shinobi have been dispatched to chase down and apprehend the criminal by any means necessary. Use of deadly force is permitted, even encouraged. The criminal is not a shinobi, but they have access to weaponry, a blindingly fast steed, and fellow civilian criminal allies; though the criminal may not have access to chakra usage, they may still be a significant threat to even a pair of genin if caution is not heeded. In your iteration of the mission, the criminal may be guilty of murder, armed robbery, domestic violence, or some other kind of violent crime; or they may also be innocent, and attempting to flee a frame job. 1. [UTAGAWA MATOI] [YAMAMOTO SHOSUKE] In progress x 2. [KYUUMU SUZAKU] Completed x 3. [YAMAMOTO SHOSUKE] [YAMATSU] Completed x 4. 5. [Repeatable] DIVING SERVICE MISSION RANK: C NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-4 DESCRIPTION: There is a large lake in the Shire Valley, home to a healthy bounty of fish and freshwater marine life. Aid has been requested in digging up something from the lakebed, which is nearly 350 meters deep. The risk is both in the tenacity required to dive to the bottom, search for the mission objective, and bring it back to the lakeshore; and also in the alarmingly large, predatory fish that are agitated by your presence. In your iteration of the mission, you may be digging up goods from a small merchant ship; a small number of bodies due to lives lost in a sudden burst of nasty weather; a precious heirloom carelessly lost by a small child. The mission objective should be either small and difficult to find, or large and difficult to retrieve. 1. 2. 3. [Repeatable] b-rank missions. BLOODY SERVICE MISSION RANK: B NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-4 DESCRIPTION: A small group of suspicious individuals have been identified by scouts in the mountain range surrounding Sancho. A team of shinobi is being dispatched to track down and eliminate these individuals, a mission which may take several days due to a persistent lightning storm in the region, and the mission objective’s proclivity for stealth. In your iteration of the mission, the individuals may be rogue bandits planning a raid on the capital; thieves scoping out a noble’s vacation home; cultists conducting strange rituals and sacrifices within their unholy sanctums. The group should have some access to chakra usage and will be a significant threat to even a small group of chuunin if caution is not heeded. 1. [YAMAMOTO SHOSUKE] [HIRANA KIZUMI] In progress x 2. [YAMAMOTO SHOSUKE] [UMECHIKA] In progress x 3. 4. [Repeatable] INTEL SERVICE MISSION RANK: B NPC REQUIREMENT: Optional PARTICIPANTS: 1-4 DESCRIPTION: The merchants’ guild has heard of a rumor of some kind of prized, highly valuable material new to the economy of Bear Country. A team of shinobi is being dispatched to travel to the wilds of Bear Country to locate the material and bring back a sample for the guild to inspect; it may be metal from a recent meteor shower, the hide of a rare species of animal native to Bear Country, or the wood of an ancient tree found only in the depths of Bear Country’s forests. The wilds of Bear Country are brutal even for experienced Kumo shinobi, and the team will face environmental risks, as well as the risk of encountering workers protected by Hoshigakure shinobi. 1.

- Generally leaving the village means some threat/combat expected, and usually means C-Rank. To keep it D-Rank perhaps specify what kind of route it is if it makes it safer for genin to travel w/o supervision?

[hirana kizumi]

threw in a line about the route being straightforward and regularly monitored by patrols!
