Background[]
Setsuna is the other son of Sakumo Hatake, and the younger sibling of Kakashi also known as the "Konoha's White Fang". Their mother apparently died when they were young. Setsuna has been known since a young age as an extremely gifted along side his older brother and were refered to as the spitting image image of thier fathers talent, regarded by by many as one of the best his generation. He had received high marks and had shown an innate aptitude for the ninja arts while in the academy. This permitted him to graduate from it in a single year at the top of his class at the age of 5, and then becoming a chūnin a year latersecong only to his older brother
Despite his own success, his father fell into disgrace after choosing to save his comrades rather than complete an important mission, causing Konoha to suffer in the war effort. Dishonoured, Sakumo took his own life after a deep depression and a drop in his skills, which caused Setsuna to lead his life in an awkward direction.

Losing his composure in battle
Third Shinobi World War[]
Because of a decline in national power, the reign of the Five Great Countries was crumbling. Along their borders, skirmishes with smaller nations broke out all the time. The prolonged war gradually spread its fires far and wide, until at last it developed into the Third Shinobi World War. This war turned into an unprecedented war of attrition, tormenting all nations with a shortage of war potential. Not even excepting a great power like Konoha, very young children were thrown unto the battlefield, losing their short lives Setsuna played a small role in this war as he was still a kid at the time but was jealous when he saw his borther come back with a Sharingan Eye.
Post-War[]
Soon after the end of the war, when the Nine-Tails attacked Konohagakure, Setsuna, kakashi and the rest of his peers were barred from participating in the defence of the village by Kurenai's father and other older shinobi.
Over the years, while Kakashi became well-known among all the Five Great Shinobi Countries for the extensive use of his Sharingan, gaining him a reputation as "the man who has copied over a thousand techniques", hence his nickname. Kakashi eventually joined the Konoha ANBU. Setsuna began to feel as thought he was falling behind in his brothers legacy, he felt as if he lived within his brothers shadow which only made him fight harder and upset him even more. This was shown when Setsuna was invited in to join the ANBU not just becuase of his talent but his realtion to Kakashi which upset him even more. Eventually Kakashi left the ABU and Setsuna saw this as his chance to finally shine and make his own name, which fueled his Will of Fire to surpass both Kakashi and his father
Personality[]
Setsuna was always a laid back indidvual who enjoyed life he some what stern and serious after his father's death, Setsuna has a habit of being sardonic, rude, and abrasive to anyone he considers an enemy. He is also quick to anger, stubborn, and when angered never misses a chance to use as much vulgar language as possible. This is caused mainly by Kakashis success in the village and he felt as if other ooked down on his abilites , which has created a mass of hatred in him; stronger than that of any other individual. Setsuna often becomes infuriated at first sound of being compared to Kakashi, . Howeverhe is a loving and loyal teammate beliving that teamwork makes the dreamwork, Setsuna posseses an undying will and refuses to give up, something many characters hate or admire.
Beneath his gruff exterior, however, Setsuna does possess a softer, more compassionate side. He chooses to keep up his public front because of the path he choses that of a trailblazer. He does genuinely care for peopleof his village both in Kohoha and Enten. Desptie his hatred of being compared to his older brother he harbor no hatred toward Kakashi and even when he left he reminded Kakashi it was only to be his own man somehting that was seemingly impossible in the Hidden leaf. He loved his older brother dearly asnd would always challnge him the first chance he got.

Despite his increasingly growing reputation and prowess as a ninja,Setsuna is not above showing low level arrogance, and is rather eager to show off his abilities, as shown when he readily praises others for leaps in their combat abilities and stating on more than one occasion that His naturally calm attitude is used to his advantage in battle, as it becomes easier for him to maintain his composure and stay focused on the situation at hand, and notice everything around him. As a result, he can quickly adjust to any situation to make keen and thought-out decisions, allowing him to stay steps ahead of his opponents, until angered that is. He gets along with mostly everyone in bohtb villages in Konoha and Enten and frequently stops by the check on his older brother to see how he is fairing.

The Blood-Scythe initially takes on the form of a giant sword with a giant slab of metal resembling a blade.
Intelligence[]
By the age of 15, Setsuna gainedenough experience on the battlefield to detect a hiding enemy's presence, impressing his those who worked with him His long career as a ANBU, and formerly as an Jonin, have only expanded his knowledge, allowing him to handle virtually any situation. For these reasons Setsuna has been assigned to a variety of teams - typically as a leader - and he is always able to work well with his team-mates. most attributes Setsuna's success to his approach to battles: he avoids direct combat by using defensive manuevers and clones until he can determine the opponent's skills, at which point he modifies his tactics to fit the situation. He is aided in this regard by his calm personality, which allows him to analyse a given situation with some detachment. He is, however, capable of "going wild" when upset, at which point he relies on his allies more than usual to make up for his heightened emotions.
Nature Transformation[]
In addition to the number of techniques he is purported to know, he also has high prowess in multiple elements. He has a natural affinity for lightning, which he has mastered and which has, in turn, become an attribute that enemy ninja identify him by. He has become in timne an advance Earth release user , he is able to perform even water release moves without a nearby water source. He has used earth techniques to produce intricate earthen walls rather quickly He has also been shown using fire-based techniques in the anime.
He earned along side his brother the ins and out of Chidori. While powerful, the Chidori has two drawbacks: the amount of chakra it requires and the speed at which the user must move. These flaws prompted Minato Namikaze to ban his student from using the technique after seeing it in action. He does not possess the Sharingan but has learned to find a way around the tunnel vision weakness of the Chidori, the tunnel effect can now be worked around, as he can now see his opponents clearly. He later refines the Chidori into the far stronger Lightning Cutter, his supposedly only non-copied technique. Refining Lightning Cutter even further as well as using the Shadow Clone Technique. He was also able to create a Lightning Release Shadow Clone and hound via his manipulation of lightning.
Ninja Arts[]
Setsuna relies on his prowess of all three phases of combat , he has a vast arsenal due to his travel. With this arsenal, he can attack or defend against his opponents in numerous manners. He has proven to be very adept in taijutsu, which, combined with his impressive speed, allows him to effectively catch his opponents off guard and evade attacks. His hand seal prowess has also been noted as very great, as he is able to use high-level techniques with few hand seals and perform them at highly difficult speeds to follow. While used less often, he has also shown skill in genjutsu, which he can use to throw off his opponents as a set-up for stronger attacks. But Setsuna is not limited to the three major ninja skill sets, as he is renowned for his tracking abilities and has otherwise displayed proficiency with trap-making, survival, stealth, and assassination. Orochimaru also noted that Setsuna had started practising the use of Barrier Ninjutsu around the time of the Chūnin Exam Arc, which he found impressive. He is also more than willing to use any weapon he comes across.
