|History|
Influence: The clan Marada was a noble family in the village of the hidden clouds, they were known artisans and one of the few main house that had established the initial Kumokagure governing agents and amongst the first to build the base infrastructure of the village.
Famous Clan Members: Halus Marada, the clan founder. Anver Marada, Third Kazekage. Ranka Marada, the surviving member of the clan. Kel Eligor, clan exile and S-rank missing nin.
History:The clan’s existence was known as far back as half a century before its first recorded history in the Kumokagure archives. Its true age unknown, but theories suggest that the original tribe appeared a little more over than a century before its official assembly. The Marada were part of the proud people of the Lightning country, and fought for dominance with the other tribes to establish their rule over the territory. After decades of war, the tribes eventually took it upon themselves to create a united kingdom under which all could rule together; a republic led by their designated leader, the Kazekage.
Marada artisans were one of the main influence in designing Kumokagure’s infrastructure: post-gothic archetypes were among the recurring styles of the village of the hidden clouds, and the clan leaders always bore a place of great importance within the Kumokagure high council. What used to be a simple clan among the others in the village was soon considered nobility for their moving influence in the village. Halus Marada, the clan founder died with the hope that one of his own would eventually raise up to be the country’s Kazekage. Two generations passed until his vision became a reality. Unfortunately, Anveru Marada was pressed with the threat of the third great shinobi war and was eventually killed by none other than the Konoha Hokage, Namikaze Minato, along with the majority of the Lightning country’s army.
Defeat gave way to frustration within the many factions governing the village. Following the 3rd Kazekage’s funeral, the clansmen isolated the Marada clan from their seat at Kumokagure’s high council, and further candidates from the clan were rejected for positions in the ANBU police forces and government divisions. Clan Marada was eventually seperated from the great houses of Kumokagure, and retained the title of a minor clan. Soon after, the destruction of the Nine-tailed beasts shook the world, and efforts to disband the militia were made announced the birth of the Uzumaki era into which the Marada clan shared little history with the village of the Hidden clouds: Despite the enduring peace, strong tensions still existed between Kumokagure and the Marada.
Using peace as an opportunity to strike against the injustice that was laid upon them, the Marada Clan devised a plan to take over Kumokagure’s government; a woman was impregnated, her infant exposed to constant high concentrations of Chakra through means unrecorded in the clan’s history. The clan hoped to create a perfect warrior that would lay out strategic assassinations and bring the clan back into the leading hierarchy of the country. Soon after the pregnancy was a success, many other women followed the same example, all of which were led into miscarriage of the premature embryo—only the original survived the experiment. After the eventual birth of the infant, which led into the mother’s death, the experiment was deemed a failure: The baby was born blind on the 320st anniversary of the clan’s making, and named Kel Eligor to eradicate any of his connections with the clan.
Soon thereafter the boy was treated as a slave, and considered more akin to an animal than a human being because of the particular circumstances surrounding his birth. Only one person shared a loving affection for the boy, it being his half-brother Ranka, second offspring to his father, and the only one the man ever considered as a son. Unknown to Kumokagure’s officials was the second plan of the Marada for a coup d’état against the government; as it was efficiently thwarted by the imminent destruction of the entire faction, save for Ranka, by the hand of the thirteen-year-old adolescent. A total of approximately 148 Shinobi were killed in the accident under a few minutes, the only surviving member describing the event as demonic in origin, dubbing Kel Eligor’s reputation as the Oni-nin in the past printings of the Bingo Book. For unknown reasons, the bounty placed on Eligor’s head was removed. Ranka is a reputable mercenary, taking jobs for assassination. Whether or not he hopes to find Kel is a mystery.

|Ninja Skills|
Specialty: Chakra Manipulation, Lightning Element Jutsu
Exclusive Weapons: N/A
Clan Jutsus: Chi Eien [Kekke Genkai], Eien Tenshu [Advanced Kekke Genkai], Chakra Manipulation
|Bloodline|
Bloodline Name: Chi Eien
Bloodline Effects: After the user has depleted all of his Chakra, a secondary supply of Chakra will kick-in, virtually giving the Ninja twice the amount of Chakra his body would normally be able to contain. This is useful for long-winded combat, or the progressive use of high-level techniques.
Description: The Ninja of the Marada clan possessed a unique Kekke Genkai which doubled their affinity to Chakra, enabling children to perform Jutsus at a young age and further increase the capacity of full-blooded ninjas to make them lethal adversaries in combat. The high concentration of Chakra in the Marada’s bodies was often rumoured to be the cause of their unique appearance.
Activation: The Chakra surplus would replace the user’s original energy as it depleted, giving onlookers the impression that the Ninja’s Chakra was unscathed from performing continuous techniques.
Activation Form: The Kekke Genkai is passive, and naturally performed by the body; it replaces the Chakra used instantly.
Secondary Form: The user stores the Chakra in his body and releases it at any given time, giving him the edge of surprise in an instantaneous attack.
Third Form:The excess Chakra is not released at all during combat until all of the user’s energy has been depleted, giving the Ninja double of his Chakra longevity.
Forth Form: N/A
Advance Form: The advance form of the Bloodline is only achieved through rigorous training; The user conducts his Chakra in a bipolarized current whilst using his techniques to return the expelled Chakra back to its source, similar to a convection current. Essentially, it cycles Chakra out and back into the body for greater stamina, virtually giving the Ninja twice of his original capacity. Coupled with the clan’s Kekke Genkai, this theoretically allows a ninja to use four times more Chakra than he normally could. Only the Marada’s unique constitution allowed them to perform such an impressive feat, although only a select few were ever able to achieve this particular level of skill in their lifetime.
