They are from the Seventh Institute, where the research focus was, "Anti-unit Warfare". The result is Herd Control Magic. [2]

Known as magic exclusive to the Shippou Family, 'Million Edge' is a spell that manipulates over a million pieces of paper that turned into sharp blades to eviscerate the foe. It is a Herd Control Magic that can be activated without a CAD. In essence, from the very beginning, the magic is a delayed sequence set in a state just short of activating and use the caster’s Psions as keys to unlock invocation. However, Million Edge is a magic that requires intense amount of preparation beforehand. [3]

On the surface, the Shippou Family work as investment advisers, especially in the field of weather derivative instruments. As a particular type of risk management tool, weather derivative instruments are broadly used to predict atypical weather hazards. As a financial tool, the value of weather derivative instruments is determined by various weather values such as temperature, humidity, condensation, etc. While industrialization of the food industry has decreased the efficacy of weather derivative instruments, the rise of solar energy as the principal provider of electricity in more developed countries has rendered the estimated time for sunshine a major indicator for earnings projections used by corporations. [4]

The rivalry between the Shippou Family and the Saegusa Family is well known, since they held the strongest desire to ascend to the position of one of the Master Clans among the 18 Assistant Houses. [5]

The Shippou Family was chosen to temporarily occupy the open position among the Ten Master Clans during the Master Clans Conference on the first day, however, on the second day during the Selection Meeting, they were elected to officially join the Ten Master Clan

They are part of Ten Master Clans, and in the beginning they were part of the Third Institute before moving to the Seventh Institute, hence why instead of the common spelling of Saegusa as (三枝, "three branches"), they have the number "(七)" in their name now. [2]

The Saegusa don't have unique abilities like the Yotsuba. However, the Saegusa Family do not have a system that they are bad at, so they are ironically referred to as "Omnipotent". [3] Unlike other families from the Ten Masters Clans, the Saegusa didn't alter their genes through only one of the Ten Institutes. [4]

Since the creation of the Ten Master Clans system, the Saegusa Family has not left the ranks of the Ten Master Clans once. [5]

The Morisaki Family is a side family that does not possess a "number". Their magic power is rated as "pedestrian", though when it comes to practical situations under special conditions, they've earned well praises thanks to their unique talents. [1]

They are well known for their 'Quick-draw', a magic that they developed in order to take down a target in a single blow without causing great harm. [2][1]
