"I am ninja. I always have been. I will die ninja. And you will die in shame."
KUSA NO KUNI, 42 YEARS AGO
Kusa no Kuni has always been a land known for its harvests, an economy founded upon its farmers. But thirty-two years ago, the integrity of that economy and thus the entire country's way of life was threatened by drought. In a fit to generate revenue, the Daimyō commissioned the assembly of the shinobi of the nation to form a ninja village, a political ploy to amass money and spread it throughout a nation spiraling into debt and poverty.
The lord of the village tried to the best of his abilities to generate revenue, and he succeeded, but the morale of the nation was broken and so conditions continued to diminish.
KUSAGAKURE, 32 YEARS AGO
Kusa struggled to stay afloat for ten years after the onset of the drought. Brief periods of rain brought about sporadic booms in the economy followed by the resurgence of the failure of the crops leading to massive inflation. A desperate nation saw it fit to simply throw in the towel and accept the failure of their nation--but the village's leader would not accept defeat and saw it fit to resort to more unsavory practices to make money. An aggressive Kusagakure started a conquest only sated by the oncoming of a downpour from the gods. A downpour which touched down just as his son was born.
KUSAGAKURE, 3 YEARS AGO
Twenty-nine years of life had led the man to be the leader of the Grass Village. A leader loved by his people yet revered for his power and savage take in battle. However, despite his own prowess in the arts of murder, his village was utterly abused by the greater ninja villages who fought in Kusa no Kuni. In addition, the Grass Country's economy tanked as the Daimyō's alliances were swayed to and fro and his funds likewise.
He looks to the future with a bit of resentment aimed toward the other villages and he hopes to take revenge for the losses his village has sustained during the war.Name: Jikei Kannon
