Sugawara Clan

Sugawara Clan (菅原氏) is a noble clan in Japan, with base of operation in Tomiyazu. It's not exactly a yakuza clan, for their base lies in nobility. They're the ruler of Tomiyazu for decades.

Sugawara wasn't exactly a strong clan, not in physical strength. Their power lies in intelligence.

History
For years, Sugawara Clan rule Tomiyazu, a rich district in Japan. There wasn't much ruckus or problems around since they always lead with charisma instead of terror, and the families affiliated to it were loyal to death.

Until in 1992, Hiiragi Clan decided to invade Tomiyazu and made it one of their land. Sugawara Clan was defeated badly, even almost destroyed with no trace. But luckily, the head of Hiiragi Clan, Hiiragi Seigen fell in love with the princess of Sugawara Clan, Hiiragi Ayame.

In return of taking their beloved princess, Hiiragi Clan didn't destroy Sugawara Clan and just left them be, even though they still take over the ruler power over Tomiyazu.

Felt hurt and bore hatred for Hiiragi Clan, many families under Sugawara Clan wished for a revenge.
