History
And the tale beginsShow
The spirit was once a powerful spirit beast known for its golden bones and defensive abilities, helping alongside other spirits to rule over the world of humans who were merely slaves or playthings for them to entertain their selves with from time to time. But then the humans rose up against them, the shinobi had been born and a war ravaged the world. A war that his own race would not win in the end and after being severely injured in one of the final battles a powerful member of the spirit race sealed his damaged soul into a wolf mastiff breed of canine that just happened to be in the area. If it was not for this dog the spirit would have surely died as their would have been nothing anchoring the spirit's soul and chakra to this world.
Soon after the spirit was taken away by the mysterious inhabitants of the country of Juu, utilizing their advanced ninja techniques he was bound to serve and protect its people and to kill those who wished to intrude upon the sacred land. By the mysterious group one day seemed to just disappear leaving himself and many other spirit guardians that were left bound to the land with only orders to protect it from outsiders. Many centuries would pass as it remained within the great labyrinth that was hidden within the defensive wall surrounding the country itself. That was until the day that a pair of Suna shinobi broke into the wall in an attempt to enter the country, fighting their way through the maze of death until they finally faced off against Ninjou in a battle of strength.
However, in the end its strength was not enough to best the power of the bannin level figure and his many companions as he would fall expecting to be slain as a result of his loss. Instead the thin framed man used his own spirit imprint arts to break the sealing technique that bound him to the wall and bound him to himself. With a new master the Bone Devil is unsure where its new master and life will go from this point on...the only thing that it knows is that it can't be as bad as being suck in that fucking wall serving masters who left them there to rot away...
