Background story
LOCATION
The Kudaras live in the Land of Swamps.
The majority reside close to the Kyuzazame Clan (Hidden Kame Village) in a small village called "Hidden Koru Village" (Koru = Moat, Dig). The rest of them are spread out in small underground villages, surrounding a huge part of the Kyuzazame village and island. In return for having their own village guarded by the Kudaras, the Kyuzazame provide political and economical protection to the Kudara Clan through their connections.
They are deeply bonded with each other.
(It’s only the small map. Preferably I'd like to place the land and its villages __exactly at this point on the map __and modify the layout a bit since there's not much information about that area (perfect tho)... but it's a tad bit more work and for now, I'm okay with it as is. I don't think it would change anything at all about the OCs.)
alternate content
to classic naruto
In this version, there used to be six Kages instead of five.
It is said that the first Kyokage (虚影 Void Shadow) was a giant frog named Kazemaru, who originated from Mount Myōboku (妙木山) and formed and settled his own dominion with some Nukenins in the Land of Swamps. He later chose a man who seemed his equal to succeed him. Unfortunately, due to the war and other story-related reasons, the third Kyokage's seat was "suspended" in a sense. Furthermore, the two great clans of the hidden swamp land suffered a great loss. It took some time for the Koru village to be fully rebuilt.To this day, an empty seat is being kept vacant. The Kyokage's deputy, Kaizen, attends the Six Kage summits but has no influence on any decisions and only has the right to attend based on ancient "handshakes" and promises.You can find more details about the key points mentioned below.
Allegedly, this mighty frog could be bribed very easily with pearls and thus formed an alliance with humans.
Meaning
In Kanji: 百済 (Kudara)
百 hundred + 済 finish, come to an end, excusable, need not.
Clan Crest
The crest symbolically represents the face of a grinning frog. It is intended to commemorate an ancient, long-extinct race of giant frogs that made their home look the way it does today. Besides, frogs are the best friends of the Clan.Crest created by the amazing valhydra ɞ
The K
When the clan was founded, lightning struck one of the oldest and most sacred trees during one of the harshest storms of that time. However, the old tree was strong enough to survive and got away with a single scar in the shape of a giant "K", which is still visible after decades.Ever since, it has been a firm belief to assign names beginning with the letter K to offspring. It symbolizes the parents' firm belief that their child will achieve great things and be the chosen one from the old stories in which it's said that they'd bring back the Kyokage to the Land of Swamps.It is also believed that bearers of such name are very robust and strong in nature.
It is considered bad luck and bad prophecy to name your offspring with a different initial.

A cursed Child
Koji Kudara, a Koma (高麗) cursed by the swamp. An earlier dramatic experience in which she lost her two brothers in a fight awakened in her an ancient but long-forgotten legacy. When the Kudaras have a terribly tragic experience within the swamp, this abnormal situation can trigger a very, very rare event. Currently, only one member is known to wield an ability like this.The ability Koji received brought her lower hair section to life, let it grow tremendously and allows her to fight with it. This sounds good at first, but there are downsides to it. Namely, her hair has a mind of its own. Deputy Kaizen created a special hairband to keep it temporarily still during everyday life. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work.

However, in some fights it often seems that the hair wants to protect the young woman. Several witnesses reported that sometimes her hair would appear next to in the form of two pillars. Almost as if it wanted to symbolize Koji's two brothers by her side. Maybe there is a deeper meaning behind it....

MORE ABOUT LIFE
Life in general
The land where the Kudaras rule is very vast.Outside of the inner circle are some remote villages populated not only by pure Kudaras. The very special and difficult conditions in the interior of the country can only be endured for pure Kudaras. From birth they are immune to many poisons and diseases.
Away from the area, many small villages have developed over time, all of which are connected to each other and the large main village. There are many festivals and events in the respective villages which are celebrated by all the local Kudaras and relatives from the surrounding area.Throughout their experience they’re popular companions on missions in difficult natural conditions. They are seldom resident anywhere and only decide later, often through their partners, for permanent residence.
They’re constantly learning, exploring the area and conveying new knowledge and their notes directly to their country.By using a specially designed jutsu that creates a frog or dragonfly ghost that brings the notes home safely. There these are accepted by certain ninjas and processed further in their libraries.

The Hidden Koru Village
It is very, very hidden behind hills and mountains surrounded by a huge swamp area. Rivers are an important means of transportation, whether by boat or with the frogs or other swamp creatures. The village is very angled and have a lot of overgrown areas. The large village is lucky enough to often be in gentle sunlight through the mountains because they block out the clouds somewhat. The rest of the swamp is still mostly very foggy and dim towards the coastal area.The kudaras are very modern and on the same level as Konoha. But they still love it to be very traditional in appearance and for example in the future it will be more minimalistic in terms of technology but very, very high quality.
Art by gooddaydreamer
Almost exclusively Kudaras live in the village (85%). When a Kudara marries, they often move with their non-Kudara partner to a smaller village closer to the coast. There are fewer toxic gases and plants there. The special thing about the Kudara genes is that they can cope very well with difficult living conditions. In very special exceptions, there are also various medicines and rituals that help non-Kudaras to live a life in the inner circle and village of the country. But of course they still have slight side effects after many, many years.The Kudaras have their own school system and titles. You learn and take part in the internal program, so to speak, and can then also take part in the official examinations of other countries in order to have a general qualification. A kudara, for example, does very, very poorly in dry areas like Suna. an absolute disadvantage. Therefore, compromises have to be made there. Unless of course you have a solution or a jutsu that will help you. There are many techniques being researched that could help you with this. One solution that is currently known is a dark full-body suit that is like a second skin and cools and moisturizes the entire body. it is made from special algae.
Mount Myōboku 妙木山
Also known as the "Mountain of Bewilderment" (迷いの山, Mayoi no Yama, Viz: Maze Mountain) and the "Land of Toads" (蝦蟇の国, Gama no Kuni), is one of the big three unexplored sage regions, a legendary place that is equally as famous as the other two, Shikkotsu Forest and Ryūchi Cave.It's the land of toads and the place where all the toads that Naruto, Minato, and Jiraiya have summoned live. It is home for huge and small toads alike. Mount Myōboku is a rich and beautiful land, whose ultimate authority seems to be the Great Toad Sage.For a human to get to Mount Myōboku, it either takes a month long travel on secret paths, if they have a summoning contract, they can let a toad use the Reverse Summoning Technique. According to Fukasaku, Mount Myōboku is impossible to find by foot for those who don't know the secret route.
Some text/info from Narutopedia
Blood Kudaras are, so to speak, invited to walk this path and visit Mount Myoboku if they are viewed as a particularly hard-working, trustworthy and energetic clan member. This happens through internal commitment and many successful missions. Being able to visit this place and train there is a special honor. You can also then call on the giants (the largest frogs and toads) to help you or even enter into a pact with them. These are very, very strong and come from a wide variety of countries. The frogs and ninjas there place a lot of value on honor and sensible behavior, which is why the Kudaras only allow selected ninjas there in order not to endanger this connection and anonymity.There they can undergo special training with their trusted frog that reveals rare techniques and recipes.There is also a connection between the statues in the land of swamps and those in Mount Myoboku. Also in the Land of Toads, the mystery of the former leaders of the Kudara clan and their disappearance is a big issue. Both countries have a very friendly relationship also because many old traditions are treated with consideration and much dignity.
Kudara Pre-Exams
Road to Ame - The Hidden Path
In this pre-exam, the journey is the destination. The young students have to embark on a challenging journey through several countries and climatic zones. It lasts two months and demands a lot from them. Many are forced to surrender due to exhaustion or reckless behavior. Small obstacles and puzzles await them to make their journey easier or shorter. They are checked at regular intervals at certain points, but are otherwise on their own.This tough pre-exam at a very young age ensures that the Kudaras are particularly tough as compared to other countries.
Kudara Exams
PRE-SHIPPUDEN
Around the age of 12-13, children take the Clan Exams ( comparable to the Chuunin Exams), after which they are assigned to appropriate teams. Until then, students take group courses in a variety of areas to identify special talents. After that, everyone must decide on their principal path:Koma (高麗), Shōna (肖奈), Zenkō (善光)Shōna is the most common path.On the day of the exam, which takes place in Amegakure, students wear familiar Ame costumes like Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato from their training days with Jiraiya.
(I just love these outfits, but they don't have a deeper meaning and can be customized as well, but the color scheme and overall look should be kept.)
Nukenins
Not much is known about these mysterious ninjas. It is said that they have set up their own organization that makes use of forbidden jutsus. They live in the depths of the poisoned and rotten forests in the Land of Swamps. Well hidden in the darkest and most toxic places known. Not even the strongest clan members can endure anywhere near as long as these unknown figures.Kudaras go missing from time to time and there are many unsolved cases. Has something happened to you or have you turned your back on your family? Terrible things happen and it is often rumored that they are the origin of them. The exact intentions are unknown.

Heritage and Heredity (WIP)
Depending on how much "Kudara" is represented in the genes, certain side effects or prerequisites will appear. Some abilities are only accessible with a high percentage of Kudara Origin.The eyeballs, pupil and tongue are visible at first glance. Furthermore, not all Kudaras have the special attributes/characteristics, such as how far they can access the country's chakra, how well they cope with the environment and for how long. Immunity to certain poisons and diseases is also affected. In addition, the swamp possesses its own kind of soul. Rare jutsu can only be used in combination with the swamp/soul's own chakra.
100-80%
Only those who are experienced enough can communicate with the soul of the swamp, form a bond with it and use its special chakra. They are very keen to hone their skills through special lessons and training in order to make their way to the elite (MORE SOON). On the other hand, it is also a disadvantage because these members have little freedom and much is expected of them.
79-40%
Visually, not all characteristics are present. Jutsus, fighting techniques etc. can be learned and used normally up to this level. However, the emphasis is not necessarily on just sticking their nose into the Kudara library. These Kudaras also use their advantage outside the swamp to do well outside the area to teach themselves new things which are foreign to the swamp.
39-0%
Often only one trait is recognisable. In the long run, they feel more comfortable in the outskirts of the country and are rarely found in the heartland. For a longer stay, they need special medicines, just like visitors to the country.
