Ninja Tag

Stealth skills, but if you have none, just grab a LOT of shurikens.
Variants of it can be found here, too.

The Original Base Game

(This is an exact copy of the E-Mail of the rules, currently un-proofread. Pleas wait for the page to be finished.)

~Original Game~

There is the Hunter Ninja, and the Prey Ninjas. One person is chosen to be the hunter, the rest are prey. The first person to die becomes the new Hunter Ninja, even if they were already the hunter.

The Hunter counts to a preset number while prey hide. When done counting, the hunter shouts "I'm a ninja!"

All players must remain in the game boundaries, but can

move around and hide.

The Hunter can use ranged weapons, and at most, a dagger for a melee. Prey can use anything, but is suggested for small, concealable weapons.

The hunter needs: 3 shurikens hits to the front, 1 to the back, 1 to the head, 5 to the legs/arms. 2 blow gun hits to the front, 1 to the back, 1 to the head, 3 to the arms/legs. 2 front, 1 back, 3 arms, 3 legs, 9999 head with a melee weapon.

to die.

A Prey Ninja needs just one hit.

Hunters can have a small, weak flashlight, only when extremely dark, and everyone says yeah.

Prey Rules

Your objective is to survive for as long as possible, while getting the most points. You can hide, and assassinate the enemy, or rely on skills of attacking and an ally to help you.

Hunter Rules

Try to kill all the ninjas in your patrol zone, hunt them down. Avoid combat, as you can die, rely on finding where they are hiding, then sneaking up on them.

The Point System

Killing the opponent(prey can't kill prey, ect.)~1 base point Shuriken kill ~ 1 bonus point Stealth Kill ~ 2 bonus points Strangle/Neck snap ~ 3 bonus points (Open to suggestions)

Currently, most points off a kill: 6, sneaking up on them, then snapping their neck.(Joke on this, don't kill anyone.)

Tips

Ninja Prey: all three of the founders have simply went prone on the ground to hide; Dyllon hid partially covered by twigs, Tristan lay camouflaged in the grass, and Alex lay in the shadows of the grass. The normal human doesn't naturally look up or down. Use it.

Move low, and slow. Tristan caught Dyllon simply because he ran. Tristan NEVER would have seen him had he not ran.

Keep moving, never let your best spot get known.

Break up your shape. Human forms are not natural. Simply curling up makes you look less suspicious.

Hunters: Check frequently places you've been. Stay away from clearings.

Go prone and crawl to a hiding place. Wait for the prey to reveal themselves. They will. Always.

Samurai Guard variant:

One person is the ninja, and everyone else is the Samurai Guard.

The samurai choose a patrol route, then stay on it unless the see, hear, smell, or feel something out of place.

The ninja must get the objective, something such as, say, a paper, or assassinate.

Samurai take one hit to die, and have melee and touch kills. Ninjas take one hit to die, and can use anything.

eXtreme Samurai Guard variant:

Same as Samurai guard, except the ninja cannot attack, and is by her/himself.
