Shinazugawa head family! (whos still alive at least, minus Kyogo)

I dont have anything like. history/folklore/origin myth for them yet but present-time the Shinazugawa clan is generally known as barbaric and merciless in their endeavors and lifestyle. They train children from the moment they learn to walk and expected to give their life to help the clan, Kyogo as clan head (was) the latest link in the long line of war-mongers who thought that more land = better and used the clan as fodder to get more riches & reputation.

Said reputation was not improved by the clan's kekkei genkai, an ability to consume chakra and absorb it for their own use. the 'consumtion' is infamously mistaken as just plain cannibalism, because the most common method of getting another's chakra is from the source. Users who have the kekkei genkai have englarged fangs, slit pupils, and when the ability is activated, dark sclera. Those who carry the gene for it (even if they dont have it) have sharper canines and their pupils can stretch to slits.

the Kochos were in some deep shit with a lightning-natured clan & agreed to a marriage alliance in turn for protection, thus Shizu got stuck with him. It was almost good at first because Kyogo thought he could trust her with his back, but he decided she was too weak to do that and she turned into a glorified paper pusher.

Shizu was still a hard worker and did her damn best to make life even a little bit easier for those she saw, and when she had children she tried to shield them from the horrors the best she could. when she couldn't she'd at least be there to comfort them.

Teiko was the first child to die- she was being trained by Shizu as a medic since Kocho are well versed in iryo-jutsu, but Kyogo had her sent with a patrol group in one of the more contested areas and she was killed in the fight.

Koto was second- he was brought to a border battle and was subsequently killed in action.

Shuya was last- he was sent on a mission with Sanemi and a few other clansmen, it went south very fast and Sanemi couldn't save him.

---

When Sanemi got home after that to give a mission report, Kyogo completely waved it off as the usual casualties and was generally disrespectful and dismissive about it. Sanemi finally snapped. He started laughing & Kyogo told Shizu to get her kid under control, but she was still in shock processing that another of her children were killed. When he slapped her Sanemi went into a fit of rage and enhanced his muscles with chakra and sent his fist right through his chest.

After all that chaos was processed and settled out, Sanemi was then the new clan head. He his mother and a few trusted advisors set about fixing a lot of shit wrong with the clan and set about improving relations with the surrounding clans.

Kumeno were wary about the sudden change in authority but weren't adverse to Sanemi being head, Kocho were very glad that 1 they were still allied even tho Kyogo's dead 2 they still get protection & 3 that they're trying to change the deeply violent & toxic culture within the clan

#kny clan au #kny clan au: shinazugawa #shinazugawa sanemi #shinazugawa shizu #shinazugawa kyogo #shinazugawa genya #shinazugawa siblings #sanemi shinazugawa #shizu shinazugawa #kyogo shinazugawa #genya shinazugawa #i didnt mean to give sumi hair so similar to kanao's but whtevr. kocho have popular hairstyles and shizu wanted her girls to look pretty #genya gets to have messy hairstyle he wants bc sanemi covers for hin and also he's got the clan's kekkei genkai so kyogo's slightly #more lenient with him #tbh i dont think i can make like. A Central Story with this au bc theres so many ways it could go and literally all of them are fun.#one Idea is that a few years ago sanemi saved giyu from a rogue group & when sanemi usurps kyogo giyu suggests trade routes as goodwill #and mayb suggests himself for a marriage alliance bc they were a lil gay back when sanemi saved him👉👈#it was during winter & they couldnt leave bc giyu was super chakra exhausted and sanemi found out he likes to be little spoon<3 #look i didnt make this au for the Story i made it so i can play doll with my gay little meow meows...#the fact that there are Events is only a coincidence #there will be worldbuilding bc fun!! but theres no central storyline. there will be a tree of mini-aus based off the idea of this au #mmm i should stop tagging now #neros art tag
