BACKGROUND:
Retsu Kinata grew up for the first fourteen years of his life within the Confines of his home village. A Humble son to the leader of his Village, the young man grew up during the peak of the Great War, most of his time spent within the confines of his ancestral home within the center of a Village known as Rajikyoku Village (Radiostation Village). It was here, for the first twelve years of his life that he would spend most of his time, learning the secret arts of his clan's mysterious techniques while simultaneously excelling at his education and studies. At thirteen, he began learning how to mine for gemstones using his Clans unique drilling styles.
At the end of the last Great War, the Kinata Clan – originally of the Land of Rice Fields – found themselves without a home, their lands and villages having been destroyed by the conflicts of the larger nations. Thanks to this unfortunate outcome, the people of the Kinata Clan became wandering nomads, moving from land to land in a bid to find a place for themselves. Uprooted by the war for the God Tree's fruit. Sadly, thanks to the destitute state of the world, such actions were viewed as hostile by many and as such the Kinata were persecuted harshly by their peers, causing the ninja to be attacked and forced to retreat towards the Land of Fire.
Throughout the many months wandering, the Clan was forced to defend itself a number of different times from attack, losing members of their clan in nearly each skirmish. In an act of bravery, the leader of the Kinata - Mitsu Kinata - sacrificed his life to ensure the safe passage of his people, willingly allowing himself to be taken prisoner and executed to protect the others. Survived by his Son, Retsu, the Clan continued forward in the hopes of locating a viable place to set down roots.
While traversing the landscape, The Kinata mistakenly found a lush forest leading to a massive lake pouring down to a gorgeous waterfall emblazoned by two statues. This would be the Valley of End and it was here, in secret, the clan would build their new village. Unsure of the location of this great, lush landscape – the people of the Kinata set up secret villages within the tree-capped forests. This peace did not last however as a few clans within the Land of Fire's expeditionary forces uncovered the nomads and forced them from their homes.
Initially viewed as hostile outsiders, the Kinata were repelled and rejected by the clans of the Land of Fire, Many of whom found these strangers more a nuisance to take their provisions than anything else. It seemed that for some time, all hope in finding new homes, new land to settle, was lost to them. Soon an armada of soldiers surrounded his people, and the young man - Retsu - had only just managed to convince them to let him show the Daimyo why they should be allowed to stay. He offered a unique demonstration of their unique talents at creating and manipulating sound, Neton – or Sound Release – and how it could be used to assist in the mining of rare gems unique to The Valley of End that the people were finally given an Audience with the Daiymyo directly to plead their case.
During the meetings, the newly appointed and very young leader of the nomadic people, Retsu Kinata, expressed their story to the leader, begging and pleading for lenience on their situation due to their loss of home thanks to the war waged on the borders of the Land of Rice Fields. In a desperate plea, the Kinata Clan leader offered a demonstration of their clan’s unique abilities – not just demonstrating the vibrational drill effects their Sound release allowed them on stone, their prowess for hearing sounds from long distances as well.
Unmoved by their plight in the slightest, Itsuki - Prince of the Land of Fire - found interest only in their capabilities. Asking the Kinata clansmen directly if he and his people could, and would use their abilities to spy on the neighboring villages, clans, of his lands, and feed him reports of their activities. Claiming that the only inclination of land granting he'd consider is if Retsu's people swore themselves to act as the 'Ears' of the Empire. Seeing a way to manipulate these people into making sure none could move against him without his knowledge, he offered them a minute claim of land, and their lives, in return for doing so.
Feeling as if there were not a single choice left in his options, Retsu would agree to this. Swearing his people's unique sound manipulation into the service of the Land of Fire, to act as the spies of the Daimyo. The young man hated it, because he knew it would only lead to more hatred in the future, but with no other choice to be had, he'd take the offer – the Daimyo of the Land of Fire deeming them a worthy addition to the Nation, publicly, decreeing that from that day forward, The Kinata would be allowed to settle the region near the Valley of End as well as Mine the surrounding area for gemstones that would be sold to other nations. Using their initial desires as a Front for the true nature of his interest in them.
Impressed with the young Retsu Kinata's ability to negotiate a place for them in this new nation, the remaining Clan members whom had traveled alongside him throughout the few years it took to get to this point had deemed him more than capable of being their new Clan Leader. Initially opposed to the idea, Retsu wasn't quite sure how fine of a job he'd be able to perform in the position - having still not yet learned all the techniques and skills of his Clan. Still, not one to let others down, the young man took the position and has since done his very best to make strides in improving relations with the other clans of the Land of Fire.
Since coming into power, the young leader of the Kinata Clan has found himself quite popular within the boundaries of the Daimyo - Prince Itsuki - and his court. While not notably liked for friendship, he notes himself a useful tool to the Leader as his people made great use of their clans skills to 'listen in' on those of his kingdom. This led to their dislike - normally - among the other clans. Seen as outsiders with a gift for spying, it has led to such divisive designs that caused Retsu to open the small island city to the public so to dispel these thoughts from neighboring allies.
While the world around them is in the repose of recovery the Kinata clan is trying to regrow in this new era of peace. No one however, is training more fervently for war, then Retsu..
