Questins for ninjitsu users

[LazyMonk]

how high do you raise your ninjitsu skill(above 5 that is)?
what determines your damage when using ninjitsu?
I'm lvl 21/kenjasai/ninjitsu 12/+47 for damage, but... my damage for a single hit is never above 24.

ninjitsu users, please post the highest damage per hit you can do.
post char level - ninjitsu level - damage bonus - damage for 1 hit.

i finished the game with my ninja lord/battlemage and my ninjitsu skill was at 15 with a 75 strenght which provided a +45 bonus??? i don't remember. the highest damage that i've noticed was in the mid 30s but once or twice i'll score something in the 70s but that's due to that one heraldry that you're awarded when you save the old sensei from an assassin who awards you that heraldry. basically it's 10 percent chance to score double-damage.
anyway, my character might not be a high damage scoring character but i seldom got hit (i got my agility upto 90-something and wore items that awarded me parry bonuses). also, when i jump kicked i'd score MANY hits. forward+jump+pump-the-attack-button-many-times.
