Tekagami Clan

(Tekagami Ichizoku) The Tekagami Clan is an extinct clan once revered as the most powerful clan of Mugigakure before the village's destruction. They are well-known for their intelligence, [[Media:Kekkei Genkai]] and [[Media:Kenjutsu]] skills.

Overview The Tekagami have a rather high dislike for the [[Media:Uchiha Clan]], thinking of them as arrogant and undeserving of their power. They are blood relatives of the [[Media:Senju]], emerging from Hakuro Senju who married outside of his clan. The Tekagami was the sole founder of Mugigakure, the Village Hidden in the Wheat. Their clan has produced twenty out of the thirty village leaders, breaking the record for the most number of clan members holding office. After the village was destroyed in a terrorist bombing, the sole survivor, Inari Tekagami, was sent to the allied village of [[Media:Konohagakure]].

Abilities The Tekagami's Kekkei Genkai, Tsukaugan, is widely recognized as a powerful [[Media:Dojutsu]]. Like all Dojutsu, it can see the flow of chakra within a person's body, however, not to the extent of the [[Media:Byakugan]]. Similar to the [[Media:Sharingan]], it enables one to take notice of small details, and predict the opponents next move before they even make it. One of the most useful powers of the Tsukaugan is to absorb information at an extremely quick rate, analyzing anything the user wishes to, and easily finding a weakness. The final use of Tsukaugan is [[Media:Genjutsu]]. Unlike normal Genjutsu which are easily able to be dispelled, Tsukaugan's Genjutsu, nicknamed Taiyoyume, is nearly impossible to overcome. Through the use of Taiyoyume, the user is able to create illusions so realistic that the victim's brain waves are manipulated, causing the body to believe they are actually undergoing what is happening in the illusion. A powerful user is able to manipulate every aspect of Taiyoyume, from the temperature to the time. Like the [[Media:Tsukiyomi]], a particularly strong shinobi could make it seem like years are going by in the illusion, when in reality it has only been a few minutes. Because of this the Tsukaugan and the Sharingan are considered rivals. Unfortunately, the Tsukaugan is extremely rare amongst clan members, and the few who do retain the Dojutsu are rarely able to master it. The Tsukaugan also requires a large amount of chakra control and mental stability. After using the Tsukaugan, the user always experiences excruciating pain behind their eyes, and are usually forced to spend a day recovering. Those who have Tsukaugan usually activate it early in their childhood, when they undergo a large amount of stress or feel a powerful emotion, such as hatred. The Kanzen Tsukaugan, the natural evolution of the Tsukaugan, can be activated in a similar way as the Sharingan. However, the sadness experienced will not activate the Kanzen if it is self-inflicted. In other words, if a Tsukaugan user was to murder a close friend in order to gain the Kanzen, it wouldn't work. It has to be unintentional. The perks to having the Kanzen Tsukaugan are amazing, however. The user's speed and stamina a increased tenfold, and Taiyoyume is brought to another level completely, able to be activated without eye contact or the required hand seals. However, it is still very draining to anyone except those with naturally high chakra levels.
