The History of the Norisu, Gaioh, and Kyubi Clans
(Remember this is mythology)
Many years ago a ruler of the kingdom of the mountains (North of what is now known as Durem) found his throne in danger. A group of foreigners had come to claim the mountains, armed with guns, under proclamation from their ruler by the sea. The Mountain king in desperation asked if any of his faithful subjects could fight off the foreigners.
Most commoners refused to step forward fearing for their lives. The king was in despair as he sent what little military he had to fight for the Mountain Kingdom. 100 soldiers left. 5 returned alive. The king prepared to surrender. He was about to issue his proclamation when a tall man entered the throne room, a long red scarf wrapped around his face to protect against the bitter mountain wind. He was introduced as Chyaku Norisu and swore that single handedly he would defeat the foreigners and more so he would do it with just the chain he carried with him.
The man then disappeared from the royal court. However less than a week later the guards found a pile of dead foreign men lying on the ground by the palace, a mountain of men ten feet high, all with broken backs among other injuries. Every last one of them dead.
The king was so thrilled with Chyaku�s victory that he urged the man to teach him and his guards and villagers his way of fighting which Chyaku had called �Asu Kikingu�.
A decade later the king passed on leaving no family to rule. The Norisu ninja clan took over protecting the mountain kingdom in its place. The clan was a clan of protectors. At least it was.
A ninja by the name of Masaru was one of the quickest, strongest ninja�s of the clan. However it was soon discovered that Masaru was a woman. The Norisu clan of ninja�s had a strict policy that women were not allowed to fight and in shame, Masaru was cast out.
Desperate for revenge she made her way down the mountains and to the kingdom of the sea, beneath what is now known as the crater that was Barton Cliffs. She went to the sea king and informed him of how all his soldiers had died in the mountains and offered to teach his men the techniques of the Norisu ninjas.
Pleased, the King of the Sea Kingdom told Masaru to teach all she knew to his General Takeo Gaioh. Takeo learned quickly all the methods of Asu Kikingu and added to it his own knowledge of throwing knives. After a year of time together, he told her that he wanted to marry her.
They formed the beginning of the Gaioh clan of ninjas, who dressed in black and moved as the sea birds, angels from the gods of the ocean, that is how the people regarded them. After five years of training new ninjas in Takeo�s adapted style he told Masaru he wanted to take her out on his boat. A mile out to sea he pushed her over the edge so she could never relay what she knew to the Norisu clan. Masaru passed out from the cold of the water. The Gaioh clan was going to reattempt to claim the Mountain Kingdom.
When she awoke the tides had somehow brought her to the shore by the base of the mountains. She began her ascent to warn her family of the impending danger, she knew that they would kill anyone to claim the land.
After a weeklong trek up the mountain she finally returned to the Norisu Clan and told them that only she would be able to defeat their leader, only she knew his techniques. The elders laughed off her story but found out only a month later how right she had been. They begged her to come back and fight for them. Masaru agreed but only on the condition that women would be allowed to fight in the Norisu clan.
The elders agreed and Masaru came back to fight the opposing ninjas. She presented the head of the Norisu clan with Takeo�s head several days later.
The Gaioh clan retreated to the sea to retrain.
In her time in the Sea Kingdom, Masaru had born Takeo's child. Over the years the boy, Yuudai, grew. He was instructed well in the ways of the Gaioh but he also looked to the skies and the ocean for inspiration in his art. He learned to seemingly float a few inches off the ground on gusts of winds like the birds, which he viewed to be angels of the sea gods. He even fashioned himself a black cape which would help him to float and with the left over material created himself a headband. He taught the rest of the Gaioh the stealth and floating techniques he had learned from the angels of the sea. Soon Yuudai grew to be the new leader of the Gaioh, taking his father's place. He ruled over the clan for many years and died in honor.
However, the two clans continued to fight for the control of the mountain and sea kingdoms.
In their first attack, Yuudai led his ninjas in and stormed the mountain people, not expecting the attack, it seemed that they were to fall permanently. The Gaioh attacked the people, stealing their food, burning their houses, and no one could see them long enough to fight back.
It seemed that the Norisu were doomed to die out. Himida, a mother of three, fled to the forests to protect her three children from the approaching army. Once in the woods she found some fruit and a cave to hide in, and hoped no Gaioh lurked in the shadows.
In the middle of the night she heard hooves approaching. "This is my cave" a voice said.
Himida looked up to see a beautiful fox-person standing over her. She begged with the fox to let her stay and told him of the attack of the Gaioh. The Kyubi nodded, and told the woman that he would get his animal friends to help fight back against the Gaioh on two conditions. The first condition was that the Norisu would stop cutting down the trees in the forest, the second was that Himida would have to contribute to the animal kingdom. She nodded and the fox snaped his fingers sending a white light towards Himida's stomach. He then turned and ran off to get his animal friends to fend off the Gaioh attack and send them down to the sea.
Several months passed since the attack and the Norisu had not kept up their part of the bargain and were cutting down trees relentlessly. Then on top of it all, Himida who had suddenly and miraculously become pregnant gave birth to a creature half fox, half human and it seemed to change at will. Disgusted by the baby Himida left the thing in the woods to die.
Several animals found the baby and took it in, raising it as their own. They named the child Kyubi. Kyubi grew to learn the instincts of the animals and to use them in attack and defense as well as how to control the change at will. She ventured through the forest villages across Gaia gathering followers and teaching them the ways of the animals, their only weapons were their bodies. Because they could not change from human to animal, Kyubi bestowed upon all of her followers masks. The Kyubi clan chose no side but were mercenaries, willing to work for pay and food, but there were always grduges against the Gaioh and the Norisu

The End`
My take on the storyline from a Gaioh perspective ninja (short version)
Hidden in the hills of a forgotten Gaian land, lay the Gaioh clan. For centuries, their civilization lived in peace, teaching the ways of Ounagi and AsuKikingu to the future generations.
Their peace was suddenly shattered when a neighboring and once peaceful village incited what would be known as "The day of Meiji Ounagi". It went down in legend that the leader of the now hostile village was wrapped in cloths of the Chyaku Norisu- an item fabled to have been gained through unspeakable acts of Gaian sacrifice, while being passed off as a sign from the great Chayaku Norisu it was now time to reign supreme over Gaia.
The remaining Gaioh clan abandoned their once thriving land, retreating and scattering throughout Gaia into even smaller clans. With a promise of protecting the future and gathering once more, this was known as the "Great Gaioh Divide".
The Gaiohs mission of avenging the wrongs by the now well-recognized Norisu clan stayed constant throughout each of the groups. Over time, that definition broadened, as the Gaiohs became known for helping others in need. Some groups taught their children to attain the ultimate symbol of the clan, the Ninja Headband. Others taught it was more important to hide the Gaioh identity until the Day of Gathering: for when the Gaioh clan would make the pilgrimage centuries later back to the homeland and be so strong in number the Norisu would have no choice but to surrender.

REcapers
The Norisu are the loud mouth killing gloating ninjas
The Gaioh are the quiet, tactful yet plotting ninjas
The Kyuubi are mediators between the Norisu and Gaioh but not without their evil side.
