Background:
Tan's family consisted of a band of traveling minstrels who had stopped in Iwagakure for festival held by one of the minor clans in the village. The festival was held to honor the stone, which they believed was the very foundation of the cycle of life. During the festival, Tan was born and his birth was thus praised as a good omen by the Nagareboshi clan. Although they were a kind clan, they were also greedy and wished to have this good omen for themselves. The clan gave Tan's family a fortune to keep the child in Iwagakure. Tan's family accepted the offer and abandoned their child in Iwagakure, to be cared for by the Nagareboshi clan.
Tan's heritage could not be erased, however. He was naturally inclined to music, and thus became a poor member of his new family. The clan decided that he was not the good omen they had once believed. Although they could never harm the child, for they had grown to love him as he was, the clan despised his biological parents for their "treachery". The clan put up a request for a mission to hunt down a band of thieving minstrels. They were regarded as dangerous criminals by the clan. The lies and slander printed in the mission request form labeled the minstrels as possible rogue shinobi from another village. It was labeled an A ranked mission. However, it was never completed.
Tan did not know of his lineage. He heard of the treacherous minstrels and made it a point to find them when he was old enough and strong enough to deal with them. The thought of revenge on these thieves drove him through the Ninja Academy. Although he was not the perfect student, Tan managed to pull through and earn his hitai-ate and status as a Genin. His team was a mix-n-match group of rebellious older women who had not been able to pass the Chūnin Exams. They were both almost twenty years old, and Tan was at the tender age of fourteen. Even his sensei was a poor choice, being a very young woman with no apparent skill in her craft.
Tan was unfortunately bitten by the same bug that kept the rest of his team from passing the Chūnin Exams. Although they performed well in missions, something with such importance as the Chūnin Exams seemed too much for the group to handle. After awhile, Tan became tired of constantly failing and requested he be removed from his current squad and placed with another. He claimed that he sexual tension with his teammates was too distracting (although he admitted to being a slave of their... handiness).
After joining a new team, Tan managed to pull his act together and learn the vital lessons he needed to learn in order to progress on to the next stage in his career. He was closer to hunting down those thieving bastards. Using his newfound experiences and mental tools, Tan passed the Chūnin Exams and achieved the rank and title of Chūnin at the age of eighteen. He used the following year to better his skills and prove to his clan that he had fairly earned the achievement, like every other member of the clan had to do.

Mental Analysis:
Tan's musical inclination is a core and essential part of his everyday life. Just as the tempo can change, so can Tan's attitude toward any given situation. The pulse of the events around him trigger the change in his demeanor, making the young man unpredictable in a wide variety of situations. Over the years he has learned to harness his willpower to overcome this downfall, but he cannot always do so properly.

Personal Inventory
[General Shinobi Equipment]
Includes a small amount of kunai, shuriken, smoke and light bombs, a file, and a spool of wire. The pouch is located on Tan's right outer thigh.
[Cacophony Grenade]
A cacophony grenade, when it goes off, releases a cacophony. In past use, the cacophony grenade has rendered those with a heightened sense of hearing unconscious from the barrage of noise. Once the pin has been pulled, this grenade will go off when forceful contact has been established. (i.e. falling on a hard surface). Tan carries three cacophony grenades on a strap along the left side of his waist.
