History
The Tiger Clan was formed several decades ago when ninja families of the Genmu Nation and their allies decided to unite under a single leader, making their small organizations into a singular one, with a wide range of contacts. The Dragon Clan having some success in the north, the Tiger Clan, as they chose to be called, wanted to expand their power base and security. They pledged a level of loyalty to the Genmu Nation above others, and have since been an integral part of their military forces, using their skills as ninja to provide intel and assassinations for their lord. Eventually, it became normal that men from the Warlords' families of Genmu married with women of the Tiger Clan, to cement alliances and reinforce their partnership.
Purpose
The Tiger Clan of Ninja are well known as one of the military branches of the Genmu Nation. Their current leader is also the leader of the Genmu Nation, born of a family of ninja and from a powerful samurai ancestry. They serve as the Intelligence section of the Genmu Military, as well as what we would call 'Black Ops'. They serve an essential purpose with sabotage and traps, making up for the Genmu Nation's otherwise less than exceptional military might. Between the skills of the Ninja, the advance intelligence gathered by such, and the traps and tricks used by them to compensate for the lack of brute force, the Tiger Clan's purpose is cemented as a powerful aspect of war against Genmu.
