Communications Team
CharacterThe nerve endings of the wartime alliance, these ninja kept every division in touch so orders and warnings could travel across enormous distances without delay. Their work leaned heavily on telepathy to bind scattered forces into a single coordinated whole.
Overview
Every division of the Allied Shinobi Forces carried one of these units, sometimes nicknamed the Com Core. Their sole charge was to keep the far-flung members of the coalition connected, allowing critical news to move both swiftly and safely no matter how great the gulf between one squad and the next.
Role
Bridging such vast stretches of battlefield was no small feat, and the team pulled it off by working hand in hand with the Intelligence Division. The link ran chiefly through that division's captain, Inoichi Yamanaka, whose telepathic reach made it possible to broadcast messages instantly to fighters spread across the entire war front.
Notable Members
The individual operators of the unit went largely unnamed, functioning as a quiet backbone rather than frontline stars. Their effectiveness hinged on Inoichi Yamanaka, whose mind-based transmission served as the channel through which the whole alliance stayed synchronized.
