Site Lore & Plots WIP

This thread will be regularly updated to chronicle the events of the IC world. Also, I recommend reading the prologue as only the first paragraph is canon.

Prologue: The Dawn of Everything

Lady Kaguya plucked a fruit from the Shinju, devouring it and gaining the tree's immense and powerful chakra, simultaneously transforming the tree into the terrifying beast known only as the ten tails. It was her son, now known as the Sage of Six Paths and creator of all Ninjutsu who stopped this beast by first sealing it within himself and eventually breaking it into nine separate tailed beasts, never to be reunited as one again. He birthed two sons, Indra and Ashura. Little did he know these two boys would forever shape the world...

From them came everyone. Centuries upon centuries passed and clans evolved into a huge variety of clans. As time went on, the reasons were lost and all that was left was the act: war. Clans fought clans for territory, safety, and good old bloodshed to no end. That is, until a strange shinobi rumored to be birthed in another land stepped up to unite the native clans of his area. This boy was named Riku Tensei. He lead his clan and forged a great number of allies before erecting Amegakure - the first shinobi village in existence - in the center of the Land of Rain. It wasn't long before the other countries soon followed and gave birth to the shinobi villages.



Chapter I: Tense Relations and Harsh Negotiations

After Amegakure was formed, a fellow shinobi - Finn Stormkin - left to start his own village in the Land of Thunder which would become known as Arashigakure. They village was ultimately allied with Amegakure and the public opinion was that the Arashikage was under the Amekage's thumb, but the watchful eye could see that there was tension beneath the surface. These two friends and adopted family members had their differences and each day the chasm between the two seemed to grow.

Konohagakure surfaced in the Land of Fire and a peculiar man named Basaka Hoshigaki - containing both the Kekkei Genkai of the Hoshigaki clan and the Uchiha clan - stepped forth for candidacy with the Amekage at his back. One by one Basaka's opponents fell until no other candidate remained and the genetic abomination was elected Hokage,
