Miyazaki Clan [Ounou]

Clan Surname:

Miyazaki.

Land of Origin:

Kagi no Kuni.

Location of Residence:

Ounougakure no Sato.

Special Abilities:

Hiden - Shouki Soushi

Shouki Soushi (lit. Miasma Creation) is the hiden of the Miyazaki Clan. It allows creation of strains of bacteria, of both helpful and pathogenic varieties. Requiring a focused mind and precise control, Shouki Soushi is by no means easy to use. Forming bacterial cells is an intricate and complicated process; however, once a person has created a strain, they will be able to easily call upon it in the future. Their bodies store copies of the created cells so they will not forget the composition. Along with this comes an immunity to bacterial diseases and an ability to control how contagious the diseases created are.

Immunity to Bacterial Disease: This goes hand-in-hand with the process of creating bacteria. If they were vulnerable to the diseases of their own creation, Miyazaki Clan members would die as soon as they started using the hiden. Thus, a natural resistance to disease was developed and enhanced. This can also be dangerous, as a Clan member might not know when they are carrying a potentially hazardous bacterial disease.

Control of Contagious Diseases: Their kekkei genkai wouldn't be too useful if it infected their comrades too, would it? Over the generations, Clan members have come up with ways to halt the spread of contagions and made them an integral part of all Clan techniques. If a user is young or has poor control, however, they are potentially dangerous to their comrades because their lock on the spread of contagion will not be as complete.

Beneficial Bacteria: The ability to create helpful strains of bacteria is helpful when it comes to medical techniques; members of the Miyazaki Clan make good medics.

History:

The Miyazaki Clan has a history that reaches back almost to the days of the Rikudo Sennin.

At they time, they were simply a Clan of doctors who had begun to study medical ninjutsu in order to gain a better understanding of healing. Indeed, they became renowned as some of the best healers in the elemental nations, and their services were often sought by everyone from mercenaries to princesses.

They never settled in a village, preferring the solitude of their out-of-the-way Clan compound to the bustle of village life. Of course, there were always Clan members who decided to leave the compound and pursue further education as shinobi, but they were far and few between.

It was two decades before the Great War when the Clan's leader, Miyazaki Hideo, began to develop the Shouki Soushi.

He was a bloodthirsty man, highly unsuited to leading a Clan of healers. He wanted a way to use their medical abilities for harm. The Miyazaki, he found, were too passive. They possessed no ability to fight in the case of an attack. This was the problem he sought to remedy.

And so he used the Clan's impressive medical knowledge to develop a method of creating strains of bacteria. It took many years of studying in a lab as well as putting his ideas to the test - something that did not always go well - to come up with a single functional idea.

From there, however, he was able to develop more and more techniques, using more and more dangerous bacteria. And he made the entire Clan learn at least the basics; once the initial issues with the techniques had been corrected, others had no problem learning them, thanks to the precise chakra control one needed to be able to use medical ninjutsu. In that way, the two arts were not so dissimilar.

Where they had once been known for healing, now they were known for destruction.

During the Great War and the destruction of the hidden villages, they chose sides - and did so very often, never staying on one side for long - and sowed the seeds of destruction upon whoever was their enemy at the time.

Hideo's wish had been granted. His Clan was feared for their impressive power, the likes of which the world had never seen before.

For almost the next millennium, they wandered.

They practiced the techniques their forefathers had created, selling their skills for payment.

They no longer cared about abiding by any rules. They killed when they wanted to kill and who they wanted to kill, without regard for anything but the thrill of watching a man slowly wither away and die to a disease he'd never even heard of.

Recently, the Clan has decided to settle down again - in the village of Ounougakure. Could there be a place more suited to these harbingers of plague than the village of Agony?
