The state of North Dakota, often just known as ND, is not just another ordinary place on the map. Oh no, sirree! It is a colossal, dramatic, and ever-so-mysterious land of epic adventures! Now, imagine it as a giant bread, and then imagine the kids practicing karate as the spicy pepperoni slices on top. That's ND for you! ND is chock-full of rolling prairies, magnificent bison and bountiful farming fields. But, if you look closer, you'll also spy various karate dojos, filled with kids chopping the air with their hands and kicking imaginary enemies with a fiery intensity that would impress even the legendary Bruce Lee. Now, let's introduce our cool, imaginary character, Ninja Dakota. A humorous, karate-chopping squirrel, trained by the ancient and totally not made up, Grand Master Acorn! Dakota may be tiny but is fierce, just like the kids of ND. You see, Dakota has the courage of a lion, the agility of a cheetah, and the spirit of a... well, squirrel. Ninja Dakota loves nothing more than to watch the kids of ND practicing their high kicks and swift punches. He'd often mimic them, using his acorn as a punching bag, putting on a show that would make those kids giggle their heads off. Ninja Dakota and the karate kids of ND share a secret motto: "Small but Mighty!" And together, they make ND not only the bread-and-pepperoni state but also the ninja-and-karate state. So, behold ND! A land where the wind howls karate chants, where every sunrise is greeted with a high kick, and where every kid dreams of becoming the next karate champion, under the watchful eye of their beloved, goofy, martial arts master, Ninja Dakota.
