Shikkajin

Shikkajin (疾患, Formation of the Wretched) is a cult of individuals with a goal to guide humanity back into the times into the time before the greatest known to man, since the foundation of the world. Originally the cult was believed to be apart of the original master race, that of the likes of the Great Hagoromo and his ancestors; though this was only a clever ruse of spirit, they are only a splinter cell that has lasted throughout the centuries. A cult gathering of men and women, that rise and fall throughout time, but due to the present unrest in the world, has began to reveal itself once more.

With their ideal in mind, the group wishes to degenerate the world of Shinobi far back into the past; a means to revert the dangerous side effects of their predecessors and from the likes of the falsehoods were lead to believe: through any means possible.

In the Beginning...
Though long since forgotten, the Shikkajin Cult were those that originally worshiped the likes of Kaguya and the race she has been born of. Slaves and laborers, they worked as one in order to give honor to their empress. Though this mysterious connection has been hidden by the bloated mentalities of those that kept the Shikkajin going, a web of lies in order to ensure the survival of the people.

It was not realized until later that the group had been lied to by their masters, and that they were little more then meat and toys to the likes of the demonic race they had once served. Deceived; they vowed vengeance under a ploy that they would uplift the spiritual state of the world.

This vision became full fledged, a long term plan in the making in order to break the lies they had been fed since the foundation of the Shinobi World.

Betwixt
Sadly, to most text books, or any written history outside of it's word of mouth, the group of men and women of the cult's history died off for the time being. The original roots, the goal they had in mind, shifting in order to ensure their survival, though keeping it's ties with the concept.

Freedom from deception; from illusion. That became the singular destiny for the group. And through their guidance, they would bring forward a spiritual revival in the nations that would tear away the lies they had been fed. This vision allowed the group to circulate through the Shinobi Nation freely, even offering up different cells that would eventually form with this ambitious desire; however in varying states.

While the group spread it's idea of spiritual enlightenment, it did not forget to strengthen it's own ties with destiny, and new leaders rose to the position. These new leaders were zealous and fanatical, and strongly tied with the old ways. The likes of the original leadership's lies were revealed to them, and the rekindling of hate formed in their hearts.

Now, the Shikkajin Cult began reforming... contemplating a means to not bring Spiritual Enlightenment; but to pervert it, corrupt it. Spiritual Death, for what was the likes of Ninshu but the seed of war? Ninjutsu it's child, the world was shaped by their former masters, and the greatest lie to the world has been re-realized all over again.

Present Date
In the present date, the Shikkajin Cult has faced many changes, with but only one aspect still in mind, the revelation of truth and the breaking away from the lies of the world, past and present. Now a terroristic organization of deranged cultists, they seek out the Shinobi Realm, readying a spiritual revolution that brings the secret of spiritual death.
