History
Urahara was born to the Uzumaki clan of Uzushiogakure a few years after his sister, Rukia Uzumaki. Soon after, his village was destroyed due to fear in the Uzumaki clan's fūinjutsu causing his sister to take him, along with the remaining Uzumaki clan members and split up and scatter to prevent thier clan from being wiped out as well. At the age of eleven, Rukia took Urahara and fled with him to Iwagakure, where they took up residence. He became a Genin there, and participated with Iwagakure in the Chūnin Exams where he was finally promoted to Chūnin.
