Hurray, I didn’t even have to change an outfit! This is my Scarlet Pimpernel sylvari in his adventure mode, with his identifying glow hidden. As you can see I have already nabbed the sword because I was waiting for it for him. He’s in dark purples because I had him in greys and blacks and he actually looked like a black and white image inserted into the game, plus his nom de guerre is “The Purple Wing.”

Gas Mask – Pitch, Black, Aqua Tint
Shoulders hidden
Aetherblade Light Vest – Midnight Violet, Tungsten, Night Shade
Apostle Wraps – Evening, Abyss, Tungsten
Ascalonian Performer Pants – Midnight Purple, Abyss, Chalk

Head: Sneakthief Mask
Shoulders: None
Chest: Strider’s Tunic
Gloves: Noble Gloves
Legs: Strider’s Leggings
Boots: Whisper’s Secret Boots

Dye: Abyss Dye, (Brass Dye optional), Midnight Ice Dye (Boots only)

Pic#1 is all Abyss Dye (Boots – Midnight Ice Dye) with the helm shown. Only the gloves have Abyss Dye with Brass Dye accent. The Whisper’s Secret Boots has a goldish/brass color accents that can’t be changed, so the accent on the gloves will help balance things out.

Pic#2-4 is includes the Brass Dye accent on all peices (Chest, Gloves, Legs, Boots) w/o helmet shown, since most who are fashion savvy tend to like looking at their hair.

Pic#5 the last pic is a hi-res pic of the ninja in action…. exactly.

The one piece skins you can apply for free that you can’t alter except for dyeing are what I am calling “outfits”. Like the assassin’s outfit or ancestral.

For some reason I thought this was still the last one. Too much riot noise…

So, anyway, Hrolfgar the Hunter. The closest thing to a Norn ninja in looks maybe, and probably the closest thing to a ninja look in my whole roster. I’m not really sure but I thought I’d put him up anyway.

Hello Lilith,

I used Assassin’s Mask, Shoulders and Gloves, Illustrious Guise, Sneakthief Leggings and Sandals. I used a variety of darker tones (Dust, Dusk, Pitch, Black, Abyss, Graphite, Enameled Crimson and Cherry), to preserve the dark ninja theme and at the same time avoid losing the details on the armor textures. I also used the Ceremonial Dagger Skin because of the matching hilt wrap. I hope you like my entry! Thank you for making a contest again, I had fun working on this look!

Cheers,

Lua

My thief (aptly named S H I N O B I ) would like to share 2 looks that might give off that “ninja” vibe:

1st pic: “Shadow of Ebonhawke” (Iron/Taupe dye)
Whispers hood
Marauder shoulders
Ascalon Sentry chest
Rawhide gloves
Rubicon leggings
Bucaneer boots

2nd pic: “Generic Ninja” (Black/Pitch/Midnight Ice/Taupe dye)
Sneakthief mask
Rawhide shoulders
Sneakthief chest
Rawhide gloves
Assassin’s leggings (baggy ninja pants)
Assassin’s boots

Pictures 3 & 4 are of my female Sylvari thief “R O O T”: (Chalkboard/Midnight Ice Dye). Armor is pretty much the same as the Shinobi’s ebonhawke set except for the head (sneakthief), leggings (Rogue), and boots (Stalwart).

Ninjas used to be mainly two things: Mercenaries and spies.

This is what ninjas wore the most while being spies:

- Priests and monks. This allowed them to get info while asking for alms. Zen priests wore weird hats like big baskets that covered the entire head. The perfect thing to wear if you want to conceal your identity.
- Traveler, farmer, peasant or merchant clothes. This is what they would wear most of the time while traveling.
- Street performers. This kind of thing got you free food when invited by local merchant and artisan guilds to entertain their live-in employees, and you can hear some rumors there too.
- Noble or Samurai attires. For when you need a few doors opened with respect and the like.
- Courtesan dresses (in case of kunoichi, who posed as prostitutes and got info in the bed)

Their weapons would match the disguise. A monk or priest would bring a staff. A peasant or farmer things like kamas, a samurai a sword, a courtesan a tanto or kodachi, etc.

While performing as mercenaries, they would wear mostly samurai gear, or simple armors that can be concealed in common clothes, like thin chain mails under traveling attire.

There was no “ninja outfit” or anything like that. That’s made up by some 17th century stories and popularized by 20th century media.

Since you’d never know a ninja is a ninja by looking at them. You can simply grab a set of clothes that look like anything, put them with wapons that match them, and there you are. You can say it’s a ninja – or not – and it’ll work.

I would show you by disguising my elementalist as a priest of Grenth, (it has a hood, so it’s good for hiding your face) but those shoulders are horribly expensive, or my mesmer as a priests of kormir (they have straps covering the face) but the chest is not available for players.

Oh. I know… wait a second. I’ll edit this with the disguise.

Some ridiculous clothes… some mismatching colors… and…

There you have it. Ding. A ninja, disguised as a minstrel. Gods know how many minstrels are working for the whispers.

oh .. i thought it had been made fairly popular well before the 20th century, unless my art history was all wrong and Hokusai didn’t paint this typical image of a “ninja” in the early 1800’s.

but i digress .. history is probably wrong, and i am sure you are right. afterall, wouldn’t want you feeling like you forum warriored a good natured thread for no real reason at all….
