Clan History: The Onitsume Clan is a recently made clan, in terms of the Hidden Mist Village. After all, it is one of the most battle-hardened, old villages there are. And though only founded a few generations ago, they are nonetheless known around Kiri for being either the strangest, smallest clan. The Onitsume was founded approximately one-hundred years ago, four generations. It has always been a small clan, with peculiar members, each generally in their own little (or big) way. It was always just a single family of three, with grandparents excluded, and a single child. Never any more, never any less. In the time they have been around, they were not always one with Kirigakure. They started as a bunch of nomadic crazy people with a knack for dancing and flashy appearances. They roamed the area which is now a desolate battlefield between the Hidden Blood and Hidden Mist, the Kyoufou Islands.
However, as war increased and began to tear apart their homeland, they began to move North, and ended up in the Mist. In order to generate income and survive, the family was registered within the halls of Kirigakure shinobi. They were eventually accepted into the societ,y bringing much success to the Kiri shinobi with their preexisting knowledge of the grounds they fought upon. They knew the lay of the land, they knew what went, and what died. This brought Kirigakure many victories in this area of the islands, and the generation passed. With this new family of the clan, came an evolution. Before then, the clan’s love for music and dance had been treated as a side, to not be mixed with the shinobi arts. However, with these new styles, they combined their already honed taijutsu with their dancing, making them unpredictable opponents in close quarters.
Generations rose and fell, all of them evolving the dance of their clan to bring to the next generation. This brings us to the family of Rokudou. He has no siblings, as is custom within the clan, his mother was the original Onitsume, and his father from a generic line of ninja with no special abilities or clan name. As such, he has only one real area of expertise, and that is the family taijutsu. However, his father will go out to teach him earth techniques to combine with his dance on occasion.
Clan Information: The Onitsume is a very care-free, fun crowd. However, when not surrounded by people who they are familiar with, they may tend to shy away. When in the company of friends however, they become truly alive, living for the party, dancing the night away, laughing and telling stories… Even if they’re on a mission. However, not many know anything of the Onitsume, though they have a dark respect around Kirigakure, somewhat feared. This is because they are often depicted as unusual or freaks, which leads to many misleading stories about how they operate. Things like rituals to the death god or un-heard-of demons or entities from their homelands. However, none of this is true, the Onitsume is a very non-religious family. They are not a people to insult another’s beliefs, though they may sometime challenge someone about them if they are invading their own space with their beliefs.
Basic Information
1. The Onitsume loves dancing and loud music, they are a very free people. They are shinobi and performers, often at the same time.
2. All Living Clan Members:
Grandmother Tazu- Of clan blood. Second generation. Seventy-two years of age, though can still dance better than most everyone else.

Rokudou Onitsume- Of clan blood. Fourth generation.
3. The clan holds one’s own enjoyment at highest value, followed by energy and pleasure. Pain is not something valued by this clan, and unnecessary dealing of pain and injury is frowned upon. This clan sees nothing in particular as evil, though their ultimate goal is to take back their home island.
4. Grandmother Tazu is the most important member in the clan, as she is the oldest member alive. She often takes pride in telling stories of the island they once dwelled upon. When she isn’t dancing, that is. Grandmother Tazu is Rokudou’s grandmother, and has a very good connection with him. However, she is often more eccentric than the rest of the clan, willing to bust a move in front of anyone, WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT!
