The Irigami clan (狗神一族, Irigami Ichizoku) is a split clan originating in the Land of the Moon. The Irigami do not have a shinobi background, but very quickly established themselves as a mercenary intelligence force. Most members born into this clan possess "special" chakra that is particularly recognizable; it is said that members of the Irigami clan are able to recognize the reincarnated bodies of their past family members through their chakra alone.
