(OOC: Trust me, I did my best to keep this clan as balanced as possible. But it was rather difficult)
Name of Clan: Yakashito
Place of Origin: Kusagakure
Current location: Kusagakure
Name of Kekkei Genkai: Oni Shi-Do Teishu (Demon Seed Host)
Description of Kekkei Genkai: This is the most well known and respected clan in the still developing ninja village of Kusagakure. Each clan member is born with a unique layer of skin below the visible outer layer. This skin produces enzymes that combine with the other chemicals within a human body. This reaction develops tiny plant-like seeds. The seeds have been dubbed Oni Shi-Do or “Demon Seeds” by the clans original founders. These seeds, though produced by the clan members have certain requirements to remain alive that are different than all other plants. These seeds feed on a combinatoin of chakra, and enzymes produced inside their hosts’ body. Now, many people would consider this to be a painful and large parasitic nuisance. However, these clan members consider it a blessing, as they have found ways to use these seeds to their advantage. By using their chakra, the clan members found ways to activate a reaction in these seeds on a near cellular level, drastically increasing the rate at which they grow. This allows for them to grow plants that would normally take months to years to grow; in a matter of seconds or minutes, depending on what it is that they wish to grow. Many of the plants are able to grow within the body which many would consider extremely painful; and in most cases it is excruciatingly so. But along with the extra layer of skin below their first one, the clan members have extremely porous skin that stretches; but only when the seeds need to grow out through it. Fortunately, the wielders of this bloodline grow accustomed to this pain, and are able to push through it with relative ease. Now, many of the plants consist of vines, flowers, and other small ones. However, some members are fortunate enough to have the seeds of trees as well grow within them. Naturally, it is impossible for the tree to grow within a human body. As a result, the users found ways to force those seeds out of their bodies and grow them there. However because they do not have the same enzymes and chemicals that they would inside the body, it takes them slightly longer to rapidly grow than their smaller counterparts. Now, simply growing plants would be a nearly useless bloodline. So, to cooperate with the clans’ well known ninja status, they integrate their plants with a wide variety of jutsus and original techniques. The plants are then used for combat, spying, whatever the use decides it is needed for at the time. Once done, if the user deems it necessary, the users can reverse the growing process, causing the plants to revert back into the seeds that they came from to be stored back within the body. Now, despite how powerful these clan members may seem, there are VERY few of them. The genes that hold the Yakashito bloodline are recessive, meaning that it doesn’t show up very often. This means that the clan itself may be large, but the amount of kekkei genkai wielders is small.
History: The Yakashito clan originated in the village of Kusagakure many years ago. The clan is quite large in size, and considered a great asset to the leader of the village. However, the actual number of members that are born with the bloodline are quite small, as the Demon Seed trait is a recessive gene. This means that when clan members are born with the bloodline they are put into training to learn how to use it as quickly as possible and treated with the utmost respect within the clan.
After a few years, the Kage of the village began to worry about the clan's growing size, even if only a small amount of members had the bloodline abilities. As a result, he ordered the execution of all members of the clan born without the bloodline. This may sound bizarre. However the Kage held the bloodline weilders in high regard, and wished to keep them around. Unfortunately he feared the immense size of the rest of the clan, and had them killed off, seeing them as near useless.
Form then on, members of the clan were only kept alive if they were born with the Kekkei Genkai; making the clan very small with only a few bloodline wielding members alive at a time.
