That makes sense to me, Rakhasa.
You might also want to think about the ninja as at least two group: cos-playing ninja, and hard core ninja. Assassination was very much a secondary role for the classic ninja, information acquisition (and maybe some sabotage) was what they were really about. Things like deep cover, being hidden in plain sight because "you should be there", and "you've always been there".
If you were a real ninja, or someone prepared to put a lot of effort into using handwavium to become a real ninja, where would be the best place to hide in Fenspace, at least part of the time?
Of course the best ninja are in such deep cover that almost all the time they think they actually are the role they are using... [grin]
Ninja magicians can be one of the truly scary things...
Being able to add real magic to the ninja array of gimmicks would be really popular...
Strangely enough, most of the above isn't about things "Naruto!" derived, or related anime. There have been ninja fans ever since people heard about the idea, and certainly since the early 1980s...
