AA-Hamato Clan

A key element of feudal Japanese society were clans, large extended families consisting of wealthy and powerful figures. In the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle universe there are two primary clans, the Hamato Clan and the Foot Clan.

The Hamato Clan were responsible for the temporary extinction of the Foot Clan, the oldest of all ninja clan. This version of the Clans is branched off from their previous version in the 2012 TV series. Their history before the events of the Amazing Adventures comics is the same as that of their animated version and remains similar in many ways after the continuity split.

History[]

Zodiac, Part 2[]

After Splinter is taken by Tetsumi Onamota in order to complete his Zodiac, Shredder tells Tetsumi's story to the Turtles. When Oroku Saki, Hamato Yoshi and Tetsumi were little more than children, Tetsumi discovered an artifact, a key tied to the ancient legends of the Zodiac. The key was unstable and drove Tetsumi mad. The Zodiac Key began siphoning the life force of those around him. Tetsumi's weakness cost the lives of half the Hamato Clan. Saki and Yoshi were forced to attack Tetsumi at a time when he was vulnerable. They believed they had vanquished him and avenged their clan.
