## Biography

### Early Life

Himitsu was born to Shin Uchiha, a young woman who manages a small general store in Konoha. Himitsu's father was Shizuka Uchiha, a Chuunin that was killed in action while Shin was pregnant with Himitsu. The loss of her husband left her wary of Himitsu's drive to join the academy, but she eventually relented when Himi showed a talent for camouflage and masking his sounds in the field. While in the academy Himitsu developed a preference for and skill with ninjutsu, which he attributes to his excessive studying. In his later years at the academy Himitsu found a fondness for history and historic research, primarily motivated by a drive to learn or even rediscover ancient techniques and ninjutsu. Since graduating, Himitsu has mostly focused on field work and learning a variety of ninjutsu, leaving only limited time for more academic activities.

### General Biography

Not long after his promotion to Genin, Himitsu was assigned to Konoha Squad 1 which was led by Kai Uchiha, a shinobi Himitsu had become acquainted with during a then-recent Jashinist attack on Konoha. During the first meeting of this team, he met Sumika of the Iron Sand, and Miki Shiratori, two other genin he'd become close with over time. Together the team took on a difficult but successful mission which led to the emergence of Himitsu's sharingan. During the team's time together, Himitsu and Kai would become close friends, with Kai acting as a mentor and a brotherly figure for Himitsu. Unfortunately the squad would only remain together briefly before Kai left the village for training, and returned a monster. Upon Kai's return to Konoha, he attacked Sumika in the market district, causing a fight that would eventually draw in Himitsu and Miki. A large, destructive battle eventually came to a conclusion with Miki, Sumika, and Himitsu all sustaining notable injury, the near leveling of the market, and the disappearance of a concerned and apologetic Kai Uchiha. This betrayal and subsequent abandonment would lead to Himitsu officially rescinding from the Uchiha-Crow contract of his bloodline, and disowning the underhanded ways of the Crows and Uchiha.

### Character Arc 1

While recovering from his injuries, Himitsu decided to use the rest-time for some reading. Casual browsing of old myths and legends led to the scrutiny of even more stories, which led to an in-depth investigation of the origin and validity of historic story collections. This month of heavy research led to a solid theory of the existence and location of an ancient lost land of bears, similar to the many Sage Lands of the world. Eager to check his theory, Himitsu presented his research to Hokage Sadayo and requested a research team to accompany him on an expedition. Instead the Hokage herself offered to go with him, and the pair left almost immediately in search of Heiwana Mountain, far to the North West of Konoha. Over the course of their journey, Sadayo was able to help Himitsu cope with his conflicted feelings toward giving up on his bloodline traditions and alleviate some of the loss of Kai.

Their arrival to the location Himitsu had mapped out was met with success, which Himitsu celebrated with an immediate venture into the lost lands. There Himitsu would follow the old tradition's he'd found in the myths of old, and brought an offering to the top of Heiwana Mountain. Within the mountain, he met the Great Bloody Bear, Lord Okame. With some convincing, Okame accepted Himitsu's request of training, and set the boy on the path to obtaining the natural power of the bears. Okame would use a combination of hidden meditation techniques to help expedite the boy's training, allowing him to at least access Sage Mode and showing his affinity for the nature of the bears. Pleased with the boy's progress, Okame granted Himitsu the title of Bear Sage, and extended a summoning contract to humanity for the first time in modern history, with Himitsu as the contract holder. Himitsu accepted, and was sent back on his way home with expectations to continue his Sage Training on his own until he was ready for the next level.

While on their way home from their long journey, Himitsu and the Hokage stumbled upon the bijuu Matatabi fighting with a group of Jashinist cultists. The pair waited briefly to assess the situation before launching an attack while the cultists were at a disadvantage. Having the element of surprise, the Konoha shinobi were able to overpower the cultists quickly without losing track of the bijuu. With reluctance, it was decided that Sadayo would seal the beast within Himitsu, in order to prevent the beast from falling into worse hands. Having been weakened by the Jashinists already, Matatabi put up a limited fight and was sealed quickly. Since then, Himitsu has developed a resentment for being forced into the position, particularly for the world-politics that created the need for the *need* for the beast to be contained within him.
