Negoro Clan

At the sacred temple, Negoro-ji, survivors of the desolate wastelands of the territory once known as the Land of Whispering Bone gather. The last surviving sohei or warrior monks call the ruins of this temple their home. Constructed by En no Gyōja himself in the times of Rikudō Sennin, it still stands many centuries later, tattered and broken. It is said that even the stones of these ruins still lay infused with that ancient Shugenja's magic. There the monks sequester themselves against the storm of violence that rages across the land. The world bleeds rivers that soak the earth in anguish. A new mystic tree buried in swamp emerged to tell the story of this era. They are beset upon by all sides: the northern barbarians, western ronin, eastern shinobi, and southern cannibals. This is the era of warring states where military might matters more than unanswered prayers, even to a monk.

Background
In the aftermath of the cataclysm that all but wiped out the shinobi world and drastically reduced global population, scavengers scoured the ruins of the old world, looking for sustenance and sanctuary. The disheveled remains of clans clustered together for shelter and defense. Food grew scarce. Many of the old arts were lost to death and destruction. The sohei of the old days dwindled in number, nearly vanishing from this world altogether, becoming far rarer than the shinobi that still peppered the land with kunai and exploding tags. The practice of adopting orphans stove off the decline of the Negoro-gumi, while infusing their clan with much needed fresh life's blood. Today the sohei continue to survive, growing stronger each day as they attempt to rebuild their clan in heart of the ancient Shugenja ruins.
