PersonalityEdit
Usotsuki is smart, strong, and rather immature. He is known for an unapproachable nature, but can also be a joker, and very fun-loving. He is often criticized for bad behavior and habits, causing most people to immedietly apologize, due to the glare he levels at them. He lives how he wants. He can be very mature when he needs to be. Usotsuki is also very intelligent, very self-aware, and has a good understanding of the shinobi world. He also has a great sense of justice, ready to give his life for his village or his fellow villagers.

He shows great loyalty and dedication to the Hidden Mist Village and to its people. In battle, Usotsuki keeps his immature and fun-loving nature, toying with his opponent, causing teammates and fellow ninja to hold him in exasperation. Even at near death, he is seen smiling with excitement because of the heat of battle. He enjoys fighting against strong opponents.

Despite being immature most of the time, Usotsuki has a serious side to his personality. He can be seen training all day, and late into the night, sometimes forsaking sleep to keep going. He isn't quick to forget betrayal. He doesn't give out his respect. He believes people have to prove they deserve his respect. As such, the only people he holds respect for are the Seven Swordsmen.

Usotsuki can also be very paranoid. Even when he is with a friend or teammate, he is watching them carefully. When he comes face to face to a rival, he will immediatly attack, and will have to be restrained.

HistoryEdit
Not much is known about Usotsuki's family history. He is one of the last members of his dying clan. From a young age he showed talent in Ninjutsu and Taijutsu. He graduated from the ninja academy at the age of 9 and was paired up with two other genin of his age to form a 3 man squad under a Kirigakure Jonin. Two years later, he participated in the Chunin Exams. He passed the Exams, and gained Chunin status. For the next several years, he continued to practice his swordsmanship and ninja skills, and completed quite a few missions.

A few months ago, after his 19th birthday, Usotsuki participated in the Jonin Promotion Test. He is now Jonin rank, and he shows an interest in becoming a member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.

AbilitiesEdit
Usotsuki Ishiomoi is a powerful shinobi from Kirigakure. His abilities earned him the title of The Ace of the Hidden Mist. His way of battle is to charge in, with no plan. He thinks on the fly. As a swordsman, he is an exceptionally skilled fighter, preferring to attack fast, with little or no chance of retalliation. He is rather observant and will try to think a few steps ahead, but he finds he loses his focus on battle, leading to various, sometimes fatal injuries. It is unwise to underestimate Usotsuki’s abilities.

ShingarigaiEdit
The Shingarigai takes the form of a giant anchor, housed on Usotsuki's back. It is a six foot tall, solid metal anchor, weighing in at almost 600lbs. The top of the anchor is a three and a half hand hilt, topped with a black, Ace of Spades shaped jewel. The crossbars, which are four feet from end to end, have chains attached at the ends. Thirty links of chain lead from the ends of the crossbars to two sickles, or kama, that are handheld. The anchor ends in a six inch spike, and the bottom edges of the anchor are sharpened. The opposite edges are also sharpened, so the Shingarigai functions as an anchor, and a scythe. It takes considerable strength, not to mention chakra control, to pick it up, let alone swing it. It's a testament of strength that Usotsuki can fight as well as he does, with a weapon so large.

Kekkei Genkai
Usotsuki is proficient in his clan's Ocular Doujutsu, the Sakuseigan, as well as Metal Style Ninjutsu.
