History
Gin was born into the Sarutobi clan of Konoha and had to live up to his clan's proud name from a very young age. The fact that he was born with the Rinnegan added even greater responsibility on his shoulders. His grandfather Konohamaru was always supportive of him and his support helped Gin through his youth. Though he was naturally shy and reclusive his grandfather's kindness and support enabled him to open up to others. He was trained from a very young age by his grandfather to learn to control his Rinnegan. It was at this time that he became friends with Kisuke Shihōin who like him had a name to live up to. He joined the academy at the same time as Kisuke and like him graduated the very next year. By age 12 he had become a jōnin. It was at this time that his grandfather died. Seeing his grandfather's dead body made Gin loose control and in his pain sorrow he forgot all that he stood for. He went on a killing spree and killed numerous innocent villagers and shinobi before Kisuke stepped in and managed to calm him.

Gin was shocked and shamed by what he had done. He ran away from Konoha and went into hiding. From that day forth he developed a great fear of his own powers and can no longer use them except when he looses his temper or is in very grave danger. He can no longer use any but the most basic techniques that he once knew. Though by a great exertion of will he can use his more powerful techniques but they are but a shadow of his former strength and effectiveness. He has been wandering the world and leaving a life of self loathing and despair ever since he left Konoha.
