Shinja Clan

Abridged History
Centuries ago, before the term shinobi was coined, the Legendary Sage of Six Paths wandered the lands, gathering followers and teaching the truth of chakra. Amongst his man disciples was a humble man by the name of Hattori Shinja, a farmer who sought only to provide for his wife and unborn son and used early ninjutsu to assist in this cause. He was always a man of intuition, taking the elemental teachings of Rikudo Sennin and combining him as he saw fit; in particular the elements of wind, lightning, and fire in order to produce warming rays of light that allowed farming in the harsh winters. This would, over the course of many generations, eventually evolve into the Shinja Clan's modern day Kekkei Tota: Gōkaton, the Hellfire Release.

Generations later, the first female head of the Shinja perishes due to complications during childbirth, leaving leadership in the hands of her newborn son upon coming of age. Despite taking the reigns at an early age, he proved to be a capable leader and erected a small, mercenary village within Kaminari no Kuni by the name of Raikogakure no Sato, the Hidden Lightning Village. Though not globally unrecognized, it was however a welcome companion to the neighboring Kumo-nin and thus the fame of the Shinja Clan grew. Tragedy struck four years after his appointment when a surprise attack by an enemy clan led to the near eradication of the Shinja name altogether. The sudden loss of so many of his kin was enough shock to forever damage the young man's heart and soul, but with the help of his remaining siblings, they rebuilt anew and made the exodus to their ancestral home of Hikari no Kuni. Presently, they reside within the village erected by their own hands, Taiyōgakure no Sato, the Hidden Sunlight Village.
