    Originally a Genin level ninja that graduated with Naruto Uzumaki, I am a lazy, easygoing genius that was promoted to Chunin level after the Chunin Exam. I am from a family of shadow manipulators and deer herders. My main technique is Shadow Imitation Technique, and later my father teaches me Shadow Neck Bind Technique, an extension of my first technique.<br />
    <br />
    I am the sort of unenthusiastic person who would rather take a nap than get excited over something and likes the thinking games that older men are usually into, such as Shogi and Go. A testament to that is the fact that I even decided to sleep during the attack of Konoha by the Sand and Sound Villages, as I thought it would be too troublesome to get up and fight. Another example is before I was supposed to fight Temari. I contemplated forfeiting, but was forced to compete when pushed into the arena by Naruto. When thrust into action-laden situations, uncomfortable situations, or indeed, any situation at all that would require me to exert myself, I tend to remark "How troublesome". I am fully aware of this side of my persoality and I even dubed myself "the number one at running away" or "the number one coward".<br />
    <br />
    However, when duty calls, I have a strong moral compass and sense of commitment to my comrades. Even though by my own testimony that I lacks bravery, I will sacrifice myself and face almost certain death for the sake of my friends without a second thought, such as when I stayed behind to confront the Sound Ninja, giving Naruto enough time to catch up with Sasuke. Since I has been promoted to Chunin, my responsibility for the lives of my friends has weighed very heavily on me on occasion.<br />
    <br />
    I am a brilliant strategist, and though my sensei, Asuma Sarutobi, often plays Shogi and Go against me, Asuma has never actually managed to beat me. Asuma got suspicious upon realizing that I was so good at board games despite my abysmal grades, which were almost as low as Naruto's. As a result, Asuma administered an IQ test disguised as a game to me, which revealed that I was a genius with an IQ of over 200. I had felt that even moving my pencil in class was a bother and always slept through tests, resulting in my low grades. I have a habit of putting my fingers together to create a square and closing my eyes so I can concentrate and come up with a strategy. Once I do, which often takes only a few minutes, I am able to think ten moves ahead of my opponent with over a hundred strategies ready to be used.<br />
    <br />
    I have a longstanding friendship with Choji Akimichi, in whom I have complete trust. Before we were promoted to Chunin rank, Choji Ino and me were on the same Genin team under Asuma. Our fathers were on the same team as well. Our teamwork is unparalleled.<br />
    <br />
    my most distinctive character trait is that I find 'all' women bossy and "troublesome". Given my mother's tyrannical personality, this isn't too surprising; however, my father shares the exact same attitude despite marrying her in the first place. I considers the Sand ninja Temari to be the most troublesome woman I know, followed closely by Ino and my mother, and to an extent, Sakura. Despite my near sexist attitude I have expressed a notably mature interest in marriage and raising a family. Just before I am about to be killed during the Destruction of Konoha arc, I think about how I wanted my life to go: "Marry someone who is not too ugly or not too beautiful. Have two children, first a girl, then a boy. Retire after my daughter is married, and my son becomes a successful ninja and spend the rest of my life playing Shogi or Go. Then die before my wife."<br />

    My favorite dish is mackerel and kelp; my least is boiled eggs. My hobbies are napping, Shogi, and cloud watching. I have also recently taken up smoking as something I picked up from Asuma, even using my sensei's lighter (which is similar to a zippo), but I do mention that I'll stop after I avenges Asuma's death. My favorite phrase is "Live each day quietly".
