 fubuki ichizoku "Where there is snow, the blizzard is sure to follow." basic information. Clan Name: ➢ Fubuki Ichizoku [Fubuki Clan]Clan Type: ➢ Kuge Ichizoku [Noble Clan]Clan Origin: ➢ Shimo no Kuni [Land of Frost]Clan Residence: ➢ Hyōgakure no sato [Village Hidden in the Glacier]clan ideology.  With centuries of history behind them, the Fubuki are a traditional clan steeped in tradition. Their values are strength and loyalty to the clan, placing an emphasis that blood is what bonds them and it is these ties that they must preserve - within reason. Members born into the clan without their coveted ice release kekkei genkai are seen as lesser members, ostracized and branded into a cadet branch of the main family. Members of this cadet branch can never rise to lead the clan, though they make up the majority of the members within the Fubuki ichizoku. The Fubuki clan also put emphasis on always maintain that there is a male heir. While women are respected and prized within the Fubuki clan, they are not allowed to inherit titles within the clan or assume the responsibilities of clan leader. Rather, the women of the Fubuki clan are often their greatest and most trusted advisers. Strength is everything to the Fubuki, as the more power they hold the more influence they exert within the Hidden Glacier. As a result, the Fubuki was subject the youth of their clan to harsh and rigorous training in order to solidify the clans name going into the next generation and in order to breed powerful members. Members born with the kekkei genkai are subjected to the most harshest training, as their ability to create and manipulate ice is a badge of their clan and a status symbol. They will dump the youth into the wilderness, forced to train and survive at the guidance of one of their superiors in the clan. This training destroys any semblance of a normal childhood, but prepares them for the harsh realities of the village they live in and the world of shinobi all around them. clan hierarchy. The hierarchy of the Fubuki ichizoku is fairly straight forward. The Head of the family is selected from the strongest of the male children born of the previous head. There are no votes and there is no democracy - the strongest will inherit the right to lead. While women may not actually lead the clan, that is not to say they are not capable of garnering power and influence. In fact, it is usually the case that the wife of the clan head is often the second most influential person within the clan itself. The power and authority of the clan head is absolute. No clan related decisions may be made without his approval, even down to marriages - as one bearing the Fubuki last name must have his approval to wed. If a Fubuki acts out against the will of the clan head, they are often exiled and stripped of their material possessions. While the elders of the Fubuki clan may be capable of giving advice to the clan head, the clan head has no obligation to heed it. clan history.  Centuries ago, when the great calamity destroyed all that the ancestors knew they were faced with no choice but to flee their homelands in order to survive. In ships of various sizes, the ancestors fled a once great and powerful land that their descendants only know as Kiri, or mist. For many days they sailed, surviving off of rain-water and the abundance of the fish in the ocean. Then, on one faithful day they believed their salvation to be at hand though they could not be further from the truth. A terrible and merciless storm set upon the fleet of refugees, tossing their ships against the icy shores of the lands that would come to be known as the Land of Frost. All was not lost though, as the ancestors of what would become known as the Fubuki Ichizoku possed a powerful blood line ability that would assist them in these harsh lands. They were the masters of ice, capable of creating it from thin air and manipulating pre-existing ice. In the frozen, barren lands they had been forced to settle - they quickly became the masters of their new domain. This domain they had forged however, was not meant to last.The Fubuki may have been the first to land in these new lands, but they were far from the last. Many other clans and families in situations similar to their own landed on the frigid shores in a desperate attempt to survive. As more and more people arrived, resources became more and more restrained. Slowly but surely the strain on food reserves and the other resources important became the tinder that would spark a massive conflict. The tundras soon ran red with blood, and clans that had formerly banded together to survived turned upon one another. This war was raged for years, until the great moot was called at the sacred site of the Frozen Heart. The Fubuki, wisened in their years of constant conflict became the greatest proponents of peace and unification; and as a result quickly became an influential force in what would become the Hidden Glacier Village. Now, in a unified North, the Fubuki stand as one of the most powerful noble houses in the Hidden Glacier. clan abilities.  ➢ Hyōton: Ice Release (氷遁, Ice Release) is the combined nature transformation kekkei genkai of the Fubuki clan. It allows the user to freely create and manipulate ice by simultaneously combining wind and water-based chakra. When the user releases their chakra, the surrounding vicinity becomes cold enough to cause snow to fall. The ice that the Fubuki can create is also extremely resistant to fire-based attacks, only melting slightly when coming into contact with katon techniques. The Fubuki are also capable of freely manipulating the form of surrounding water. Additionally, any nearby water is an advantage, as the user can simply freeze that water to create ice.At later levels of mastery and control over ice release, the Fubuki user will eventually be capable of manipulating the temperature of their air around them to levels lethal to non-Fubuki combatants. ➢ Sensory: A percurliar fact of the Fubuki clan, perhaps the reason why they are such renowned trackers and assassins, is the fact that all shinobi regardless if they are born with the ice release kekkei genkai or not; is born with the ability to sense charka. Fubuki who have practiced their sensory techniques for many years are capable of detecting and picking up even the faintest "scents" of chakra many miles away. This results in a battle-hardened Fubuki being a terror of an opponent. ➢ Survivalists: From the age they are able to walk, members of the Fubuki clan are taught how to survive in the harsh and frozen wilderness around their home village. Every aspect of survival in the wilderness is mastered before they even graduate the ninja academy. This emphasis on survival is due to the Hidden Glacier as a whole, as the village has no room for the weak who could not survive without the amenities of modern society. ➢ clan members. |
