Best race for ninja

[Valerion]

So, I need an opinion. What is the best race for a ninja?

A) Human - You know, that thing you see when you look in the mirror.
Yes, I know it's unfair that fire giant is not an option on your resume. I
know, you really are a vampire. It's cool....

B) Avian - Fly vs. Plague, the rematch. Now taking bets.

C) Drow - Kinda like Legolas, but with a fur coat, selling crack and pimpin hoes.


---> Please give me examples of why they would be best.
ie:
Human = Most strength/con, assassinate like 7 ranks below.
Avian = Perma fly, high dex
Drow = Can't really think of anything good about them, heh.

Unless you wish to sit at 39 and hunt cabal wannabes go for avian. Flight means so much for a ninja, cause you need to run off faerie fire all the time and you do not wish to get tripped at the wrong time. At 50 high av rare/unique weapons will do much more damage than ivy swords anyway, so you shouldn't worry about sickness weapons so much.

Hah, I just thought of something. What about gnome ninjas?
Just think about how powerful they'd be. HAHAHA! They'd be unstoppable!

Avians make excellent rogues because they cannot be tripped and their flight allows them to sneak around all of the time - they also come with heavy vuln. A drow comes with the sneak already prepared, and can also see in the dark. Its fairly obvious why that helps ninjas. Humans have the optimal pk range. I will leave it to you to worry about the stat differences.

Gnome ninja is kind of ludicrous.. ninjas dont get mace remember? I'm hoping its just a joke but you never know with you people.
