Clan History: The clan started out as a small nomadic family who lived off of what the desert in which they resided provided. They never stayed in one place too long, always moving about the desert, treating nature with the greatest respect. They were unique, due to their religion, which consisted of hundreds of different gods, each one being a personification of an element or object. The clan made many shrines to these gods, praising their powers. They even had a group men devoted to the worship of their gods; their preists.
The clan grew over time, slowly progressing into a small villages worth of people. They finally were forced to settle into a permanent settlement, unable to move about with so many people. They built large shrines to the gods, building idols of them to worship. The clan was happy with their lot in life, giving the gods many sacrifices to keep them favourable. The clan lived this way for not a handful of years, before the famine came.
The famine demolished the clan's pastures, killing off all of their cattle, causing many of the clan to die off. The high priest began to pray to the gods, asking for their aid, praying to them, hoping that they would send them food, or a way out, some way to survive. No answer was forth coming, the gods were silent, for many days. The high preist began to fast, making all of the priests under him follow his lead, allowing the ordinary people of the clan larger portions of their dwindling food supplies.
For a week he fasted, then that night, he recieved a vision, a dream as he sat in the shrine, chanting. The gods showed him a valley, a valley so lush, so green that it hurt the eyes to look upon for too long. A winding slash of blue crisscrossed through the center of the valley, providing the much needed water that provided life out in the dessert. The high priest was shown a safe path to the valley, he awoke from his dream, and spread the good news telling the entire clan of his dream.
The next day they had packed everything they could gather, and began to head towards the safe path the gods showed to the high priest, the Nile river, which lead directly into the valley. So the clan set forth, heading off for this new land that was to be their own, in order to start their new lives. Many more died on the two day journey to the river, but five infants were born, within days of each other. Though these five children all shared a birth defect. Each one of them was born with only one working eye. The other was dead and milky white.
The high priest prayed to the gods, asking them about this strange defect, and again the gods gave him a vision. They appeared to him, telling him of the power of the path of the Shinobi, of the power of chakra, and how they themselves could access this power. The Gods went on to explain that the children who were just born would be able to learn elemental chakra, though only if they devoted themselves to one god above all others. The dead eyes were a sacrifice to the gods for this power they had been granted.
They gods also told the high priest that his generation would be unable to learn to use chakra, but that each child from now on would be born with only one working eye, and that future generations would have the ability to use chakra. Shortly after this vision the clan set off again on their journey through the desert, towards the lush greenery that was to be their new home. The high priest never saw it, as he died shortly after his second vision from the gods. His finaly act was to promote his right hand to high priest.
By the time the clan reached the valley their numbers had been halved, though many of the surviving women were pregnant, and each of them knew that their children would be born with this odd defect, for the high priest had told the clan of his second vision, before he died. The surviving members of the clan were frail and starving, many of them suffering from malnutrition. Luckily for them fruits, vegetables, and animals were in great abundance in this valley.
Once more the clan settled down, their month long trek through the desert finished. Slowly the elders of the clan who had survived began to receive strange messages in their dreams, and awoke with odd knowledge; the knowledge of a shinobi. They had been instructed to teach the young children the way, teach them the essential skills of a ninja. Slowly more and more of the clan gained this knowledge, and were able to create an academy, to teach the youth of the village how to be a shinobi.
Years later the clan has once again returned to the size of a village, now with a strong bond with their gods, all members missing one eye. The clan now knew of the shinobi villages, especially of the closest, Sabakugakure. They did not pose a threat to the village, so the two had a tentative peace, neither attacked the other, though they would not assist each other either. The two villages have been this way for a while, in a stale mate. Until the new leader of the clan, one Anaguma Zeppeki, has tried to do the unthinkable, he is trying to make an alliance with the village. Only the future will tell what happens to those who dwell in the lush green valley known as Egypt.
HistoryHistory: Kyra was born on July 11th, 1991. She was birthed during the total solar eclipse in ‘91, around 7pm. She was born in her home and not in a hospital. When she was young, she got ill frequently, but as she grew older she wasn’t getting sick as often. She grew up in a small neighbourhood, and only played with boys because there were no girls. She became very tomboyish, she would spend her summers climbing trees and playing video games. As a child, she was frequently bullied. The bullying distorted her view on herself, and she rarely thought about herself in a positive manner.
At the academy, Kyra did very in chakra control and did above average in weapon wielding. Her sensei thought it would be a good idea if Kyra became a medic nin because she had really good chakra control. Since Kyra didn’t enjoy conflict, she spent her years learning medical ninjutsu so she could aid all the wounded. Her sensei thought it would be a bad idea if she didn’t know how to protect herself, so he made sure she knew ninjutsu too. He noticed her skill in kenjutsu, so he taught her how to wield blades that were quite heavy for a girl her age.
At the age of 13, Kyra’s parents split up and Kyra moved into two new homes. She became more independent, and didn’t have many friends. She spent most of her time improving her artwork and listening to dark music. She also spent more time being Deddo’s “mother” even though her mom was still in the picture. Her focus started to lower her mid-teens, where she met many people, mostly males, who were like her. She didn’t spend time with many girls because in the academy because they got “bitchy” and “catty” and she hates nonsense arguments. She became a part of the “misfit” group. She began to focus more on the people she would be helping and the bullying began to diminish. She began to gain more confidence in her abilities.
At the age of 16, she began to study ijutsu vigorously. She was was a protégée of the head medic nin in Sabakugakure. She did outstandingly well and she is currently trying to be the head ijutsu specialist in the Zeppeki clan.
Days before her 18th birthday, Kyra had this sudden urge to go to her birthplace. She felt like she had to be at her old house because it felt right. During the solar eclipse, she felt a sudden rush of power and adrenaline. She also felt inclined to do things she had never done before, such as jump off a high cliff into water. But because she lives where she does, she couldn’t do that.
RP Sample: Kyra was sitting down watching her cooking shows. When the commercials ended and it showed the end result of all the delicious food, her stomach grumbled.
I better get something to eat, she thought. She went to her fridge and opened it. There was only spinach and cheese. She opened the freezer and saw ice and frozen berries. Desperate to find food, she started searching all the cupboards to find just some canned tomatoes. She sighed and did what everyone does: open the fridge and hope something appeared. But alas, nothing showed up. So Kyra decided that she’d go to the store and get a few things to make a yummy supper. She got her wallet, put it in her pocket, and left the house.
She was walking down the street to get to the store, and she became very bored with the plainness of the day. She began to sing her favourite songs.
Tell me your weakness. Oh I keep it a secret. Oh come on, just one vice. Okay, it’s vodka on ice. But then there’s women on bikes, or just the women who straddle. Oh now you are a handful. I forgot about handfuls. Kyra began to dance along to her singing as well. The people walking by gave her weird looks.
Once she finally arrived at the store, she bought some Italian sausage and some onions. She paid for it, and then left.
When she got home, she got her pan out and turned the stove on. She spent at least 15 minutes trying to chop the onions, 10 of those minutes were spent drying her tears. She put some butter in the pan and let it melt. Then she put the onions in until they looked translucent. She began to unwrap the sausages by slicing the packaging down the middle and scooping out the meat. She then tore the meat with her hands and placed it in the pan. She made sure that all the meat was fully cooked and then added the spinach. She put some of the canned tomatoes on top of the spinach to help it cook faster. After 10 minutes, the spinach had shrunk down to a tiny mushy blob. She turned off the heat and set it aside. She took a heaping amount of it and placed it in her bowl. She then put grated parmesan and mozzarella cheese on top of the food. She then grabbed a fork and dug in. She flinched in pain because it was way too hot for her.
After she finished her food, she took her dishes, cleaned them, and put them away. She took the leftovers and put them in a container and placed them in the fridge. She took the pan, cleaned it, and put it away. She then grabbed her blanket and sat on the couch to watch more cooking shows.
