Clan History: Beginning as a peaceful and nomadic clan that traveled the area where Kumogakure is located today, the Kurogasu were an intelligent and proud tribe, many of its members exhibiting control over Katon chakra with ease. Specifically they were able to use smoke based katon techniques. It was these abilities that led to the Clan being contacted. Meeting with a group who had claimed themselves the Raiu, they were met with an offer, to join that clan and create a Hidden Shinobi Village. Given that they owned the lands where the Daimyo had ordered the village to be built, and becoming part of said village would not only make them stronger, but give them a stable homeland. The Kurogasu were no fools, and so they had accepted. Coming together with the Raiu and the other founding Clans of Kumogakure they would help form the foundation for Kumogakure to grow and thrive on. Once Kumogakure became an established village the Kurogasu were tasked with being a main part of the military force. For their smoke based techniques made them very proficient scout and signal shinobi. As Kumogakure grew as a village the Kurogasu itself, overjoyed with how everything had been going would start to branch out. Refusing to claim land for a compound the Kurogasu would instead live side by side with the villagers, passing their knowledge and teachings to their neighbors. However after a horrible injustice of duty during the 2nd shinobi war, during which hundreds of Kumo shinobi were killed due to several Kurogasu lookouts abandoning their post. The Kurogasu were shunned by all except the Raiu. Now known as a clan of traitors because of the actions of a single squad of shinobi. The clan fights for redemption proving that they as a group, are just as loyal to the village as the day they helped create it.
Kekkei Genkai Description: Smoke Dissipation is a technique where the user can dissipate their body at will. This technique completely nullifies all physicals attacks (such as taijutsu, bukijutsu, and certain ninjutsu) making it impossible to receive damage from them while in this form. However the user can still take damage from non physical attacks such as certain ninjutsu and chakra enhanced attacks. When damage is taken in a smoke state, there will be no physical damage noticeable once returned to their base form, but regardless the damage will have been done. Applying this technique, the user can modify their body parts for suitable situations. Be it to evade an enemy's attack during a battle, to infiltrate a structure, or to launch a surprise attack, this technique boasts a high strategic value. While in this form the user has full control over the smoke and can move fluently and freely, bending and manipulating the cloud to suit their needs. However the user cannot attack or use jutsu while in a basic smoke form, and only when they master the smoke dissipation can they use this technique for direct offensive purposes. The smoke cannot be displaced as the chakra of the user is distributed throughout the smoke at an even and steady level to keep it intact.
Due to being so in tune with their Katon chakra the Kurogasu receive -20% word count requirement for learning Katon Techniques
Drawbacks:
Due to relying on Katon so heavily the Kurogasu take +1 damage from Suiton based attacks.
Kurogasu members cannot train or learn the Suiton element.
Due to the physical properties of smoke, while utilizing the Smoke Dissipation technique, shinobi take +1 damage from Futon based attacks.
Kurogasu members must take the Hesitant(Element) negative characteristic, and cannot take a positive characteristic to counter balance this.
The Kurogasu must take Ninjutsu as a primary specialization.
