Clan Name: Shizen
Location: Scattered, Most around Morigakure
History: Many years ago before the time of the shinobi wars there were a group of beings, that came into existence through an anomaly of chakra surge which created spiritual beings for the Flora of the World, these beings are the physical embodiment of the plant life, an example of this is Sakura and the strongest of the Shizen, he is the essence of all cherry blossom trees although the clan has been noted to lose a member when a certain Flora goes extinct. These are the one's who taught Hashirama Senju the Shizen Sage Mode although it is near-impossible to find them and they will usually find the person.
Description of clan ability: the clan's abilities are diverse and each Shizen has a different Art. Currently Sakura's the only one to display himself but the Shizen can use Wood Release and "Flora Release" which is a sub-form of Wood Release for those who are not trees but flowers Flora Release Shizen can't use Wood or Tree related arts. The final ability is because they are so close to nature a Shizen can gather Natural Energy as they go and transfer it to a Sage Mode user.
Drawbacks: They are comprised of plant matter and as such are incredibly suspectible to being incinerated, however they return and come back to life if their respective plant still exists eg. Sakura can be killed but so long as the Sakura tree survives he still lives. They are also not very skilled in Taijutsu or Genjutsu.

His face is covered by an ornate mask featuring golden teeth, black lips and fangs, a golden protrusion on either side, and a golden headpiece shaped like three cherry blossoms. He wears a long, light purple kimono with white stripes running down the center and sleeves, which is tied at his waist with a long piece of white fabric that hangs down in two long loops in the front. He wears a red-gold pauldron on each shoulder, which are connected by a golden band with strips of red fabric hanging from it and two interweaved strips of red fabric above it. He wears red, elbow-length gauntlets and red greaves.
Dependant on his summoned rank, is what level of Mokuton and Shakuton. ie. If a Chuunin at rank C summoned him then he can only use C lower. Due to the two natures being made up of Suiton and Doton he can use them too. It should be noted that as his main form of combat however he gains +1 to Kenjutsu.
