Bird-Masked Anbu Member

He is dressed in a white cloak and black trousers with bandages tied around his right leg and black sandals. He has brown hair that sticks out his right side in a long bang. His mask varies between the manga and the anime. In the manga his mask has a triangular shape pointing down from the top and a short line running up from the right eye hole. In the anime these marking are replaced by four yellow lines on either side running in towards the centre of the face. Both masks however retain the bird-like motif.

He and another Anbu accompanied the Third Hokage in infiltrating a secret bunker with the intention to find out who was behind the disappearances of shinobi from their village. After they disarmed the traps, they confronted the person behind the acts and discovered it was Orochimaru. Having been caught, the Sannin attacked the Anbu and Hiruzen, giving him an opportunity to escape and flee the Land of Fire.
