Level 3: Genin
Ninja Suit. Usually you wear normal clothing and blend into the crowds. For night missions, you might wear all black. The black suits are not historical. They came from stage hands, kuroko (黒衣), who wore all black, head to toe, in order to imply that they are invisible and not part of the action onstage. But hey, this is Mythic Japan, so of course ninjas wear black! And often arrive at a scene with an acrobatic somersault. In a black suit, you can attempt Hide Action while Lightly Obscured (e.g. in area of Dim Light), which is not normally possible.
Ninja Sword. Ninjato (忍者刀) is your main weapon.[1] Use scimitar stats for it, although it is a straight sword. Its scabbard can be used as a breathing-pipe underwanter.
Ninjutsu. You can use Sneak Attack with your Unarmed Strike, and base damage of your Unarmed Strike is 1d6 + your Strength modifier Bludgeoning Damage.
Talking Hands. You learn a special version of Common Sign Language which only ninjas can normally understand.

On a failed check, the scroll disintegrates.
