Symbol/Icon: A capital R centered over a pair of simple wings with a backdrop color relevant to the country they call home, most often used as a flag and placed just under their Country's flag. A light pink for Cherry Blossom Country, pale blue for Blizzard Country, rich blue for Hurricane Country, yellow for Storm Country, and grey for Death Country. The color/style of the wings and R vary depending on the preference of the family member that owns or captains the ship, but those of the main branch in Shippuugakure have always sailed with golden R's.

Clan History: The Roth Family’s known history stretches back generations, however there isn't much of note beyond their arrival in Hurricane Country. They first came to Shippuugakure from a land across the seas; leading a veritable armada of mercenary, mercantile, and fishing vessels in the wake of the 10 year hurricane. Their stay in Shippuugakure was originally intended to be temporary as they searched for an uninhabited island to call their own. In return for a place to lay anchor and trade they offered their vessels and their crews for whatever services the town was in need of and more, many of them volunteering to aid in the building of Ao Phalanx Harbor. Of course the building of a proper harbor brought in even more work for them through trade and fishing, which in turn brought forth various bands of rogues and pirates on the high seas, granting those members who preferred blade over net much needed work. It wasn’t long before some members of the Roth family and their shipmates decided to make Shippuugakure their permanent harbor, while others went on to settle in numerous other smaller towns within the Land of Hurricanes and beyond.

Not much not note has happened since then. Those that stayed in Shippuugakure made a name for themselves as sailors and pirate hunters, eventually opening their own, although small, district within Ao Phalanx Harbor. As the years passed they grew in wealth and fame amongst those whose work brought them to the docks or took them to the high seas, but even as their status increased they never thought of themselves above any other. However unlike many of the more notable clans in Shippuugakure, or in just about any hidden village for that matter, the Roth family rarely produced shinobi. While the majority of their members train extensively in various combat techniques they prefer to live their lives on the seas, those who would make fine shinobi becoming hired protection for mercantile vessels or pirate hunters. As a result the other clans tend to look down on them, even if they do aid the country by trying to keep the waters safe.
