Fuchigami Clan

History
Thousands of years ago, a group of beings, The Great 8 Omni Lords, defeated a powerful monster known as the Great Fiend, Yamigedo. Unable to fully destroy him, they chose to instead seal it away on Earth in the hopes that its power would never be released again.

When they arrived at a mountainous region, they encountered a group of humans who identified themselves as the Fujigami Clan. The members of the clan revered the Omni Lords as all powerful beings, equal to that of gods or demons. The Omni Lords reached an arrangement with the clan, whereby they would act as guardians over the stone that contained Yamigedo and see to it that the monster is never released. After that, the Great 8 left and scattered across the cosmos, leaving the clan to their newfound task.

Over the years of protecting the seal, the clan adopted various traditions to further help with their task. These include severe restrictions over what a member can do, such as their choice of diet, and the adoption of a harsh training regime that all members, including the children of the clan, had to participate in. Despite what was the best of intentions, these very traditions would soon become a major factor in their eventual downfall and failure in the present time.

Present Time
One day, a member of the clan, known as Ikazuchi, would eventually be filled with a great hatred towards them and their traditions and would seek to release Yamigedo. After finding the very stone that contained Yamigedo within a shrine, he ripped off the paper seal keeping it in check, thereby releasing the Great Fiend once more unto the worlds.

After breaking the seal, Ikazuchi returned to the clan dwelling, where it was discovered that all of the members had been turned to stone as a result of Yamigedo's power, in gratitude towards Ikazuchi and his wishes. Afterwards, the both of them left to resume the goal of consuming all of the worlds.

It is unknown at this time as to what happened to the petrified members of the clan as Ikazuchi remarked that he didn't care to bother with them after the fact. It is also unknown if other members of the clan survived the petrification and are simply in hiding.

Trivia

 * "Fuji" is most likely derived from Mount Fuji, the highest mountian in Japan.
 * This makes sense considering the clan resides within a mountinous region.
 * "Gami" means by itself "high class, graceful". However, as a result of a Dakuten or "vocalising mark" in Japanese writing, it can also be an alternative pronucitation of the Japanese word "Kami" meaning "God, Deity".
