Mission: Border Patrol: Earth Country
Name: Border Patrol: Earth Country
Rank: C
IIC Length: 1 day
Difficulty: Moderate
Description: The Kusakage wishes for the borders of the Grass Country to be patrolled. A team of two to three (2-3) ninja are to patrol the border between the Grass Country and the Earth Country.
Objective: The team of ninja must travel to the border and patrol up and down the border for three days before reporting back to the Grass Village.
Reward: 20,000 Ryo
Training: Animal/Creature Lore (Urban) / 0/125 SP - 0/5 TP
Lore, Animal/Vermin (Specify Region)
Rank: "E"
Skill: Skill
Effect: This skill enables a character to observe the actions or habitat of an animal or vermin and interpret what is going on as well as identifying said animal or vermin.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Actions can show how dangerous the creature is, whether it is hungry, protecting its young, or defending a nearby den. Furthermore, careful observation of signs and behaviors can even indicate the location of a water hole, animal herds, predators, or impending danger, such as a forest fire. A successful check means the character understands the basic actions of the creature, as well as the type of creature it is. A character may also imitate the calls and cries of animals that he is reasonably familiar with, based on the knowledge (user must learn per Region). This ability is limited by volume. A successful check means that only Chakra means can distinguish the character's call from that of a true animal. The cry is sufficient to fool animals, perhaps frightening them away or luring them closer. When learning the user must choose per Region and they may only have knowledge of Animals and Vermin creatures. Identifying a Vermin or Animal Creature is dependent on the Difficulty check found in each creature. Each time learned user gets 5 die roll to increase the skill.

Zeri would wait on the outskirts of Kusagakure for anyone else who wanted to join him on his adventure to the border of Earth Country, where he took on the mission to patrol the area for three days and see what happens. He was able to talk a merchant going in that direction to give him a lift with anyone else who was coming along, at least to the border, which from what Zeri had been reading was a good six hours or so there. They wouldn't actually need the cart, but since it was going in the same direction they were, then it was great for convenience; plus he could get a chance to read along the way. The cart was already waiting for them, so he decides to hop in and get comfy while he waits patiently for everyone; his waist pack with the lockpick set, multi-tool, and the three doses of healing herbs gets undone and set to the side. His new pack where he keeps all six of his books gets placed on top of that. The pouches where he puts his senbon and kunai though are still strapped to his thigh; as are the pouches on his arms that hold the shuriken. Ketsueki would be leaned against the cart's side alongside his packs. His black bandage coverings are still nice and wrapped around his whole body, with his mask over his face for cover; headband tied around his forehead as always, his Hakama is currently up and covering his shoulders, as he was just relaxing currently.
Using his packs as makeshift seating, Zeri would lean against the inside of the cart near the open end; for quick getaway if need comes to it. He cracks open the Creature Lore book for urban areas, beginning to read through the passages on the many animals and such that can be found; he was also planning on reading his canine training manual, to see if he could get some furry friends. Though the book here wasn't really listed in the ways the botany books were; those were alphabetical, while this was just a bunch of small stats for each beat one could find. Nothing really all that difficult to understand if you had half the brain for it, and rather simple to memorize in a timely fashion. Most of the urban varieties though were dogs of many kinds, some vermin here and there though, and some other creatures; to think these were roaming around Kusagakure in the shadows.
Though to be honest, this book here wasn't really all that thick, as many creatures can't really coexist with humans as easily as some that are more readily accepted. Though there is usually that one rather odd creature that can easily be seen around human settlements, especially near the graveyards where the dead are buried; such as the Carrion Pecker. A tiny creature of the avian family, related to both Vultures and Woodpeckers... there's a mating season Zeri could do without seeing. Favorite food is indeed the flesh of the dead, so can be seen in graveyards or battlefields, and are rather ravenous to the point a single one could strip a body in a day. They have a natural ability to sense undead, and give off a squawk if one comes within their radius; so carrying these guys would be nice if anyone would be going out to do some undead hunting. They're also easily tamable with the proper food and such, so it's not that hard to get a couple. Kind of hard to find though, so maybe not all that easy to get your hands on them.
While he continued to read, his senses were on high alert, even though he wasn't that good at differentiating certain things at this time. Though his enhanced sense of smell would probably warn him of anyone coming up from behind him if need be, hopefully he would notice it in time. Keeping his eyes into his book, continuing to scan through it for anything else rather interesting; of course there would be some domesticated cats listed here in the book. They had nothing particularly interesting on them though, just damn cats that didn't have many useful things; plus, Zeri was more of a dog person due to their loyalty. The final entry on this chapter though was rather disturbing, a leech like creature that was listed as an abberation, which meant it was something not of the natural world more than likely. Rather horrid creature, that it was, sighing softly before turning the page to get to the next chapter and away from that horrid thing.
