Ōroragakure & the Yamakami clan

"The land of water consists of an archipelago in the outer sea. [...] The island clusters around the main island have unique, ancient customs that vary from island to island. Many inhabitants still strictly adhere to their old traditions and customs." — NARUTO Hiden: Hyō no Sho

The Yamakami clan is a union of several religious families which were exiled in the other nations of the world. Their home is Ōroragakure — A village in the land of water hidden inside a giant genjutsu that even the sun can't reach, with northern lights gracing the sky instead.

Yamakamis are skilled genjutsu users with unique combat abilities that can combine battle staffs and their own clan tattoos. Their moral compass, traditions and overall behaviour is often seen as unconventional, or downright terrifiyng to outsiders.


This site focuses on the darker themes of NARUTO, most notably Jashinism. Topics like cult-living and cannibalism are often discussed. If these topics make you uncomfortable, the clan is not something for you.
