Inuzuka: Rite of Passage

The Inuzuka: Rite of Passage is a unique test. In order for one to become recognized as an adult, Inuzuka parents have relatives abduct their children and ninken. This team is then left alone in a massive forest. They are then left in a bag at the forest's center. Surrounded by darkness, when they escape, Inuzuka children find themselves lost in a dense dark forest without supplies. Outsiders are often forbidden from entering this forest as it is own entirely by the Inuzuka Clan. The purpose of this test is to both survive and use one's sense of smell, to find their way back home.

To successfully past this test, one must tap into their own wild instinct. It is this test that creates the Inuzuka's sixth sense. Their enhanced nose that goes unrivaled by many if not all tracking ninja. A natural affinity for the wild. Inuzuka must rely on their sense of smell to locate those who kidnapped them, and follow its trail. Meanwhile surviving wild hungry animals, and feeding. Arriving there is a monthly trip. And once dropped, their relatives use a scroll that instantly sends them back to the forest's entrance. Causing all hope of catching up to disappear.

It is played on the idea that a Dog Always Finds Its Way Home.It will strengthen their senses making them one with the wild.
