((This is an open thread for all people who have either already entered Konohagakure no Sato - if they were from a different Village and have done so in a separate thread - or those who already are citizens/shinobi of Konohagakure no Sato and especially Uzumaki))
Tucked away in the northwest of the Leaf, hidden in the thicker groupings of trees, the Uzumaki Clan lies. Approaching the gates it was clear to see the swirling symbol mounted a top the peak of the double doors that made it. At first glance, their campus was mostly the Grand Hall along with a larger building with multiple stories set just to the right. The main road which lead to the Hall was lined with housing suitable for an army. A small training field was set behind the Hall within their encampment where Uzumaki warriors honed their skills. The redheads have always been headstrong, but peace was always the goal in mind. They continuously strive for a better world were children weren't sent out to the front lines to die like cattle to slaughter. Riddled with a painful history of death and dismay they became slightly reclusive. Within isolation the clan flourished. The former village of the Crimson few was known as Uzushiogakure; a rich civilization that was brought to rubble in war. The devastation left the Redhead's numbers small. Those who survived the village's destruction scattered across the globe to seek refuge. Extinction was a plausible out come before bringing brought back to their senses. Hono Uzumaki along with the current Grand Leader of that time reminded their family of Konohagakure. He conveyed stories of a peaceful place where they could lay their heads. The Uzumaki and the Senju shared strong bonds and were distant relatives and had interactions that crossed and overlapped for years. The two groups histories could be traced as far back as the original villages creation. With this, they settled down in the Leaf and instantly the "Gingers" feld back 'home'.
The Uzumaki have shown signs of great longevity, growing up to be the oldest and wisest ninjas in the realm. And with age brings knowledge beyond bounds. Advanced knowledge combined with time to write and study, the clansmen created powerful fūinjutsu. When it came to such encryption and prowess, they were at the top of their game. Whether it be inherit or simply the will of the Creator, they pay no never mind. Knowledge is key and the residence have seem to take high consideration with literature; having grand libraries with information beyond anything you could imagine. They are the type of fighters to think whilst they swing.

Grand Hall
The hall was not for show, but purpose. A long narrow path way lead from the entry way as the begin to the very end, where the Leaders throne lay. Though, the Leader is constantly busy, he or she always makes time to speak their fellow man. Within the Hall everything from grievances and complaints are heard and thought over.
Training Field
Behind the Grand Hall lies a bare open field littered with kunai, shuriken and other ninja tools. Wooden sparing posts stood in a row along the boundary wall of the Stronghold within the Leaf. This area is generally used for training until someone has a discrepancy; then a real fight ensues. This is not a matter of blood shed, sometimes a fist to the face is the only way to get your true feelings across.
Though it was pathetic in comparison to the Leaf's field, they made do.
Grand Library
The library, on the inside, consists of three large levels, the two public levels being the first second floors. These floors spread far and wide, large rows of books spamming as far as the eye can see. Tables are set throughout each of the floors so that those there to study have the ability to do so. In the back of the library, within the staff room rests a single door that leads into the lower level beneath. The place was created from a dear friend of the Uzumaki, a Senju man with Mokuton prowess. He claimed that the building was indestructible and so far, it's held out.
The contents of the ground floor and upper level's bookshelves contain anything that the heart could possibly hope for. Normal books that spread from Comedy to romance, even Science Fiction. Medical books that stem from simple herb identification to medical procedures for birth and surgery. Other contents contain each Jutsu that was known to man, that stems from elemental usage, and everything beneath C-Rank techniques. There are even novice books on explaining how to create and use basic Fuinjutsu.
Secrets are everywhere.
