Secret? Sure I’ve got a secret hasn’t everyone?
Well mine’s kind of an open one and very annoying it is too. I’ve got a bloodline limit. No, no it’s nothing flashy like the Uchiha or the Aburame in fact it has no combat use at all. Guess what it is?
It’s Sanity, maybe stability would be a better description but my family tree was developed specifically to blend with and stabilize any clan blood line limit. Not clear, well you’ve seen how a lot of families with bloodlines interbred to maintain it, but because they do that, a lot of things go wrong too.
The next generation’s sanity is usually the first thing to suffer. My people originally came from Water country where there are a lot of blood lines and a lot of insanity. So one of my ancestors had the bright idea of creating a blood line that could be introduce to any clan and blend in without weakening the blood line limits, thus introducing new blood and reducing the side effects of interbreeding. Keeping 90% of the families in the clan sane in other words.
Problem is not everyone appreciated his or her efforts, the entire history of the Umino clan is that of imprisonment, (for your own safety, there’s the bedroom) or execution (we don’t need your dirty blood we’re perfectly sane. HAHAHAHA!!) When the Village Hidden in Leaves was created there were only about 10 of us left. Fortunately the 1st Hokage was a reasonable man and he just sort of hid my clan in plain sight.
In return we were to offer our services (under a very strict contract) to the rest of the clans when ever the blood line of ‘said’ clan was getting a bit too thick for it’s own good. Things went really well for my family from then on and I am discreetly related to almost every clan or family in the Village Of Leaves.
Then the fox happened and now I’m almost alone apart from my very discrete relatives. I am the last direct member of my family and so I have been entered into 5 arrange marriages for the purpose of renewing my clan. The women are sort of willing but only because they know I’ll divorce them the moment they fall in love with someone else. In the mean time they have ‘gentle’ husband who badly needs children. Want to know what I think?
THE WHOLE THING STINKS!!!! Why?
The Village hidden in the leaves has the largest amount of ‘sane’ shinobi in the entire 5 nations in order to maintain this, it needs the services of my clan, and I’m the last one. That means I cannot court, marry or even have one night stand until I fulfilled all my clan contracts for fresh blood.
But now the clans have realized I’m the last one, so instead of helping me to rebuild my own clan, they are adding to the existing contracts in order to try and stock pile my blood line in their next generation. Oh they say they’ll return some of the children to me to raised as Uminos but not until they see how talented they are. And the women most of them are career ninja they don’t really want children yet and they certainly don’t want me. …………………………………………………sign………….It’s a duty that’s all. The real tragedy is that all those children may be born unwanted and I can’t help them until their clans decide if they are useful to them or not.
I’m alone and unwanted except for my sperm and I can’t even look for female companion who’ll want me until the contracts are filled.
If fact the only person who even remotely attracts me any more is a man and that’s only because he seems to be as lonely as I am. Enough. If I say any more I’ll start to get angry and then I’ll go and get drunk and god only knows what will happen.
Thanks for listening any way.
