Clan Name: Nekozuka
Clan History: The feline users’ clan was born in Kusa no Sato, from the Inuzuka clan. An old story tells that it’s progenitors were members of Inuzuka, happy, respected couple of Konoha shinobi with finest and strongest canines.They served the clan with all their heart and brought fame to their little family, they even had a small child. Everything was perfect ‘till the baby was killed.
All proofs showed that the child was killed by canine, and the wounds matched with the woman’s sister’s dog, which was also twin of the woman’s trusted companion. A war of words and insuilts enflamed between the couple, the woman’s husband was on his wife’s side of course, and the sister and her husband, ‘till the woman caught her pet; the dog was eating her nephew. In her anger and disappoint, the woman killed her companion, and once her sister found the body, the couple was thrown out of the village. They cursed the Inuzuka clan and canines and travelled to Kusa no Kuni, where they were welcomed.
From the forests of Kusa, the woman found an interesting new companion; a leopard, big and strong, agile, gracefull and deadly. Since felines are considered enemies of canines, the woman tamed the beast and changed few Inuzuka techniques to new purpose. After years of training, the releationship changed stronger; when the human used arts of Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, skills that they learnt from their journeys to different lands, the feline finished the opponents with brutal strenght.
Since that, this has been traditon of the clan. The human half concentrates to Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, and their animal partner handles the rest, making a perfect fighting couple. For the hatred against Inuzuka clan has remained to thease days, the clan members prefer not to use the clan name, nor any surname; if they have to, they use specie of their animal companion. There are two kinds of members in this clan; others travel around the world, and never attach themselves to any village or people, and other join Villages and serve strong masters. However, thease people are known wavering; they serve their masters well and without questions as long as they want, but later they might kill them and continue their travel to other countries.
Clan Members: The clan members are very strict about their skills and ‘purity’ of their blood; usually the members find a short time partner from their own clan, but there has been some ‘slips.’ Parents abadon their children at young age to make them grow independent and strong-willed survivors. Because of this, most of the clan members have similarities in appearence; black, white orange or red hair, lean build, sharp fangs. The most interesting indentifying feature of the clan mebers’ are their felinic eyes; usually orange or blue, narrow shape, narrow pupils.
‘On duty,’ those who serve masters try to remain clam, cold, emotioneless. They listen and fill the orders that are given to them, they don’t care about moral. With their animal companion, they prefer to stay quietly in the shadows.
Outside their duty, each member is special, and acts just like they want, but usually they are confident, curious, at times lazy. For each of them has spent almost their whole life with a feline, they might act like ones at times; when they’re pleased, they purr, when they’re angry, the hiss, and sometimes a Nekozuka might be found laying somewhere, enjoying sunlight.

Clan Jutsu’s:
Ishindenshin (Quiet Understanding)
Jutsu Description/Effect: Allows the user and his/her animal partner communicate with each other without words. If the user and animal know each other well enough, by simply staring in the animal’s eyes and performing three handseals (Tiger, Bird, Dragon) the user connects their minds; this means that they can change thoughts, but also, they don’t have secrets, since the animal and human sense each other’s feelings and hear all their thoughts, unless they’re hidden with hard work. Effects of the technique last ‘till the user cancells the jutsu.
Jutsu Consumption: Unlimited
Jutsu Rank: 'E'
Shikyaku no Jutsu; Neko (Four Legs Technique; Cat)
Jutsu Description/Effect: “Better,” felinic version of the Shikyaky no Jutsu. It loses in the skill of incrasing scent, but beats it’s predecessor almoust in every other point. Like felines, the user will, of course, have a sharpened sense of smell, but felines trust more in use of hearing and sharp vision, and naturally, these are the skills which incrase the most.Extreamly usefull to silent hunter is the ability to see in dark. When in the original technique the user’s nails just grow and sharpen a little, in the felinic version they’re thinner, sharper, curved and retractable. Fangs gre longer and sharper; their bite can be deadly. Also, the user’s balancing incrases greatly, as well as the ability to attach ‘self to objects; instead of doing it with the boring way, hanging from a tree or wall, the user of this technique can attach her feet even to thin strings. The ability has two ‘extra,’ optional effects; sharpened, eleven ears (for some reason this was the closest that the invtiors could get to fleine ears) and tail to help with balance; of course, the user must have space to row the tail, special clothes most likely. And most importantly; once performed, the technique lasts ‘till the user releases it. It doesn’t require chakra to use it, so usually even Nekozuka’s youngest members use it constantly.
Jutsu Consumption: 15 Times a thread
Jutsu Rank: 'C'
Jujin Bunshin, "Beast Human Clone"
A modified version of a transformation technique, this jutsu allows a user to transform their animal companion into a perfect copy of themselves. When combined with the Jujin Bunshin (Four Legs Technique, Neko version to Mao), the user and the animal become virtually impossible to tell apart, since both act equally animalistic. Like any transformation, the jutsu can be broken by identifying and attacking the animal, thus dispelling the transformation.
Gatsuga/Tsuga "Double Piercing Fang"
The user and his partner spin at a ferocious speed and deliver many powerful beastlike attacks when contact is made with the target. This attack can be done alone, but is less effective.
Konobi Henge "Combination Transformation"
An advanced form of Henge no Jutsu. (Transformation Technique) Konobi Henge transforms two users into one being. One user usually provides the chakra while the other performs the necessary hand seals. Naruto uses this with Gamabunta in their fight against Gaara's full Shukaku form. Kiba and Akamaru use a variation of this technique in their fight against Sakon and Ukon, transforming themselves into a giant two-headed wolf. The Sound Four used this during the Chunin Exam to disguise themselves as the Kazekage's two bodyguard attendants (two in each).
