Kurayami Clan: History and Jutsu 
 
Bloodline History 

The Kurayami are one of the most Ancient Clans of Kumogakure no Sato. The lineage of the Kurayami can be traced back to the first Raikage himself Kurayami Tsuyogaru. The Kurayami were one of the most deadly clans of the Cloud and were feared because of their devastating bloodline, the Tokoyami. 

When the Uchiha and Hyuuga joined forces to attack the clans as what came to be known as the Bloodline Massacre , many of the noble clans of Kumo fell. One of the few clans who survived were the Kurayami. With their aid , the Godaime Raikage managed to drive back the forces of the Hyuuga and Uchiha. Unfortunately since that day, their numbers have dwindled and their power is seen as a curse by other jealous people. 

In this present day , Raizen has rebuilt the clan and restored it to its former glory. However they are still resented by many especially the Hyuuga and Uchiha who lost many men when the Kurayami counter attacked.
