Background

This much we know: Ninjas do not exist. All ninja clans and families disappeared in the early 20th century among the convulsions of the Meiji period. Ninjas were shadows in human form, experts in stealth, infiltration, disguise, and a variety of forms of assassination. The Yu Jing StateEmpire cannot allow the unruly Nipponese to maintain a caste of sinister executioners. Unless, of course, they work for the Government. Officially, the State disavows the existence of Ninjas. Rumors of highly technified assassins carrying out the StateEmpire’s black operations are nothing but that: rumors. Never has one of these fabled Ninja been captured alive…



One can't start an article on this topic without stating a real, undeniable truth: ninjas do not exist. The reader must be aware that everything they're about to read is based on rumors extracted from the data sphere, stories lacking solid support from reliable sources, or verifiable proof.

Originally, ninjas were an invention concocted by the Hexahedron, the PanOceanic intelligence service, and the Nomad's Black Propaganda to discredit the glorious Yu Jing Empire with unfounded accusations about hi-tech assassins skilled in martial arts, responsible for crimes and deaths that their law enforcement agencies couldn't solve.

This concept was successfully exploited by numerous Maya-productions, such as Padre-Inquisidor Mendoza's Holofilms or the Mayaseries "Cold Blue," starring that PanOceanic media hero known as Commander Frost. The ninjas were always portrayed with a negative and evil bias in all these Maya-productions. They appeared as assassins and saboteurs associated with the StateEmpire's army and government, creating an icon that would deeply resonate in the collective consciousness of the Human Sphere as a whole.

The power of this icon was so great that even the Japanese Secessionist Army—after violently and traitorously splitting from the Yu Jing Empire—would extensively utilize it, increasing the myth around it by adding new types of ninjas, each supposedly more unbeatable than the last. These hypothetical ninjas would be responsible for acts of espionage, theft, and all kinds of covert actions that were likely carried out by members of the standard special forces of the Greater Independent Japan. However, claiming the existence of legendary martial artists equipped with state-of-the-art technology will always instill more fear and restlessness among the enemies of the Japanese Secessionist Army.

Therefore, everything you're about to read is based on a mixture of lies, hoaxes, propaganda, and pseudo-conspiracy theories that shouldn't be believed. Taking advantage of the naivety of countless citizens in the Human Sphere, Corvus Belli—an evil corporation obsessed with profit and unconcerned about whether its customers go bankrupt or engage in criminal activities to acquire their products—has released a compilation box of metal miniatures that supposedly represent different types of the urban myth called ninjas.
