Naruto Gurps style: character build no jutsu!

[stranger38]

Good day y'all

let's go again.

we will be playing a naruto game this weekend, but my character can't spit fireballs, fart lightning or **** bricks.
my character just uses weapons and tools.

my idea is around explosives. more precisely to glue them to people for maximum effect.

but how do i build that? binding amd affect others?

I think the Sticky modifier on binding will be sufficient. Anything that touches the original target (the stick of dynamite or whatever) will be effected by the binding.

This can be built using innate attack with the Delay Mod (Basic Set page 105):

So for example:


Grenade:
You have a pouch that holds 10 grenades that you can throw. Each grenade has a 2 seconds delay once thrown at a target before exploding causing 3d6 of crushing damage. It may cause fires. The range of these grenades are 20 yards due to the mass of them. Other variations exist.

Crushing Attack 3d (Explosion 1, +50%; Incendiary, +10%; Delay, Fixed Delay, 2 seconds, +0%; Increased Range, 1/2D, 10x, +15%; Limited Use, Fast Reload, 10, -5%; Reduced Range, 5x, -20%; Takes Extra Time 1, -10%) [21]

If I'm reading the way Binding and Sticky works correctly it's more like:

player "I web the dynamite"

GM "dynamite is covered in webbing, it can't move, if it was a dynamite with legs"

player "I throw the Lion at the dynamite"

GM "the Lion is suddenly also covered in webbing"

It doesn't appear this would actually affix the Lion to the Dynamite though - the Lion's ally Tiger could come along and drag the Lion to safety without being affected.

Tiger would get webbed too if he tried to drag the dynamite away, but he can drag Lion away because he isn't the "original target".

I believe this build to be basically the correct one (although Melee range) might figure into it too). "Binding" and "sticky" are steps in a wrong direction (as Plane notes in a subsequent post).

In terms of Naruto, explosives are usually "paper bombs". These are examples of Eastern-style calligraphy with glue on the opposite side apparently. You stick them on your target like a magical post it note from hell and leap away as they explode a second or two later.

The usual way to use them at range is to fasten them to a kunai throwing knife with a bit of string or just to wrap them around the handle.
