History || The Ikichi clan was founded by Kumoro Ikichi, long before the Village Hidden in the Clouds even came into existance. The family was small, but well off, Kumoro being a sucessful merchant in his early thirties, selling food and spices -poisons included if the buyer was trusted. Shinobi were never a problem, seeing as his business was beneficial to any ninja who sought it. However, his business did come with risk, and so the only way to protect himself was learning a bit of the skills his customers knew.

However, the skills he possessed were unknown to his family and children, and so, with wars breaking out over the lands, the family became, the family became targets. Shinobi were despret, and the wares Mumoro sold weren't exactly low priced, so the defenseless family came under and abundant amount of threats: their lives for cheap wares. No matter how much he tried to keep his family safe, it still wasn't enough, and the family leader was forced to give his supplies to the shinobi.

Money soon began dwindling, and the threats only increased, so Kumoro began teaching his family, even his wife, shinobi skills; he gave them the means to protect themselves and no one argued against this decision. Many of the family led simple live and did not agree with violent confrontations, but the family was at risk of losing everything and dying off, so they did what was needed for survival. However, as more members grew in strength and power, a similarity began to make itself known between some of the family.

Shinobi only continued to try and rip off Kumoro, however, tales began to spread of how the merchant's power and influence began to spread through the village the family lived in; while others did not believe the stories and simply returned to the man to intimidate him into giving them what they needed, others came to see if the tales were true. None were disappointed; Kumoro refused the shinobi, revealing the power of the Ikichi clan; it was the birth of Storm Element. While attempts on the merchant and his family dwindled, the family continued to strengthen themselves, providing help to the small village which they were apart of; the techniques and knowledge being passed down to the younger generation.
