The Iga ten are the ten best ninja Iga Tsubagakure has to offer. This makes them an ally of Ofuku, who later intrudes in the war between the ninja to give a helping hand to the Iga. The Iga were selected to represent Takechiyo, the eldest of Ieyasu's grandsons. There the anti-war pact was broken and ten Iga ninja were sent to battle against ten Kouga ninja to determine the next Shogun. In order to demonstrate both clans abilities in warfare.
The Iga clan's chief Ogen was ordered to come to Sunpu with a representative to meet with Ieyasu Tokugawa. If the marriage were to go ahead then Gennosuke would become the leader of the Iga clan, something most Iga resented and therefore most hoped that the marriage would not succeed. Despite Oboro's upcoming marriage to Gennosuke the people of Iga still refused to let go of the hatred from the past. The pair were introduced again at a meeting in Iga when they were adults, where they both decided to go ahead with the marriage. Years later Danjou and Ogen brought their heirs Gennosuke and Oboro to meet Hattori Hanzo the 2nd and discuss an arranged marriage between the two, hoping once again to achieve true peace. The next day Hattori Hanzo's anti-war pact was signed, forbidding the Iga and Kouga ninja to assault one another. Some time later, the Iga retaliated and assassinated a group of Kouga peace representatives, which included Renbu Kasumi. The Iga's leader, Ogen's grandfather, was killed during the attack. However, after having escaped, Ogen learned that the Kouga had been heavily involved in the attack and she blamed Danjou, causing the rift between the clans to remain. At some point the Iga were attacked by Nobunaga Oda, but both Danjou and Ogen managed to escape the massacre thanks to Hattori Hanzo the 1st's actions.
She had developed a relationship with Kouga ninja Danjou. It is unknown when or why the Iga and the Kouga became enemies, but the war came close to ending at a time when Ogen, the Iga's current chief, was young.
