Chinseikage



The Chinseikage (沈静影; Literally meaning "Tranquility Shadow") are the leaders of Ikotsugakure. They are generally acknowledged as the strongest in the village, although ideology and renown plays a large part in their nomination for the position. Only one shinobi has acquired this title and only one has gained Chinseikage Candidate

Overview
The title and role was created by Delta Uchiha shortly after the establishment of Ikotsu. Generally, the new Chinseikage is selected by the current Chinseikage upon their retirement, but if the old Chinseikage dies or is incapacitated before being able to do so, the Repose Daimyō will appoint a Chinseikage Candidate upon the recommendation of the Ikotsu council and the Repose Daimyō council. Afterwards, the candidate will need to be approved by the jōnin of the village to become officially Chinseikage.

After being approved, they are obliged but not mandated to move into the Chinseikage Residence to live in and have their statues made and kept in the Chinseikage Legacy Monument. If the former Chinseikage is still alive, they will generally keep helping out, making the transition easier and more stable. The Chinseikage carry their title for life, even after retiring from active duty. The Chinseikage's office is located in the administrative section of the Academy.
