Kichikuou Rance:Ninjas

Ninjas
There are 4 recruitable ninjas and 1 Substitute Ninja item. You can you use all of them once per turn to
 * Scout (lets you see an enemy battle formation)
 * Sabotage an enemy city

Sabotaging enemy cities
When you send a ninja to weaken an enemy, There are two RNGs that come into play:

First, there's a chance that the ninja is captured:
 * 1% chance when scouting information gathering, this is 1%
 * 10% chance when sabotaging a city, or 70% chance when sabotaging a Kayblis faction city

If your ninja is caught and you have a substitute ninja, you will lose the substitute ninja. Otherwise, you will lose the ninja.

Second, as long as your ninja was not captured (even if you lost a substitute ninja), there is a 50% chance of failing the sabotage city action.
 * Although you can send the Substitute ninja to sabotage a city, it will always fail.

Each ninja has a unique effect to weaken an enemy city, if successful.

Ninjas in battle
Additionally, all your recruitable ninjas are associated with another general, and will randomly attack an enemy general for 1HP when they attack (not effect against demons).

Kentou Kanami


How to obtain: Start of Leazas phase (automatic)

Effect when successfully sabotaging a city: Reduce the city's defences by 1

Appears in battle with: Menad

Events:
 * Sending Kanami on missions to Zeth will cause her to meet Code Passenteide, a Zeth ninja. After Code is introduced, you will see a beginning of turn event where Kanami catches Code sneaking into Leazas Castle. Send Kanami to spy on Zeth again and Code will tell Kanami he is going to assassinate Rance. If Rance has punished Kanami a (unconfirmed) number of times, Kanami will decide to help Code kill Rance. This leads to her happy ending and the Assassinated (2) ending. Otherwise, Kanami will stop Code.
 * Rance can order Kanami to get a hamburger instead of scouting or weakening a city. This doesn't do anything useful, but when she brings the wrong hamburger, Rance has the option to forgive her or punish her. Punishing her counts towards the Assassinated (2) ending.
 * The option to harass Kanami can also show up randomly when she is selected for a mission or in the harem.

Freya Idun


How to obtain: Two or three weeks after attacking Helman, Freya will appear randomly in your original Leazas/Rebellion territories (only way to know which is a rare start of turn event where Maris tells you where she is, or just levying blindly). Levy the city she's in to encounter her. After 3 encounters, buy the Ninja lime from Pluepet. Encounter Freya again and you will be able to capture her (thereby getting her CG) and recruit her by picking the option of paying her twice as much as Helman.

Effect when successfully sabotaging a city: Reduce enemy troop sizes

Appears in battle with: Hubert

Events: If you do not manage to capture Freya, she will eventually complete her mission and poison your food in a start of turn event and you will lose all or almost all of your money. This is required for Freya's happy ending.

Kaoru Quincy Kagura


How to obtain: Recruit Gandhi then select her in the harem menu

Effect when successfully sabotaging a city: Reduce the enemy troops' ATK or DEF

Appears in battle with: Gandhi

Events:
 * If Kaoru is captured when trying to weaken the Kayblis faction's city, Medusa will have her way with her, leading to her Unhappy ending.
 * To get her Happy ending, you must not recruit her or Gandhi.

Wichita Skate


How to obtain: Recruit Gandhi then select her in the harem menu

Effect when successfully sabotaging a city: Reduce the enemy's replenishment amount

Appears in battle with: Magic

Events:

Substitute ninja


How to obtain: Buy it from Pluepet.

Description: A treasure that's considered highly rare even in JAPAN, home of the ninja. It's a piece of wood that magically appears out of nowhere to take a ninja's place if it seems like they're going to be captured. A lord simply needs to possess it for it to affect all of the lord's subordinates.

Effect when successfully sabotaging a city: The Substitute ninja has a 0% success rate at weakening enemy cities.

Other effects:
 * The substitute ninja can be used to scout, just like the other ninjas.
 * If another of your ninja would otherwise be captured, and you have the substitute ninja in your inventory, you will lose the substitute ninja instead, and the ninja still has a chance to succeed at weakening an enemy city.
