Vernacula-X
I've resurrected this old area of the site for two reasons. It's mostly a small glossary of various video game terms. The second reason is that I have a bad habit of using unfamiliar slang including a few that I just made up myself. This area is still under construction and I apologize in advance for spelling errors, mistakes and just out-and-out stupidity. This is meant only as a quick 'oh, THAT'S what that means!' resource. Links to much better sites (many of which are referenced for the more technical bits here) are included at the bottom.
Ninja (Full page here.) - A fighter, spy and/or assassin trained in the mysterious, unconventional arts of ninjutsu. They often use weapons, tools and uniforms from the time of the ninja arts' creation and abilities that range from genius-grade sneakiness to full-blown fantasy magic. Ninjas in games with more than one playable character usually have low health and low attack power balanced with blinding speed to avoid damage and special techniques built around their agility.
