Appearance
Ichi is a tall, skinny man that greatly resembles San, with the exception that he only has a single mark on his forehead, his bang on his left side, and that while Ichi wears his cloak on the right side of his shoulder and straps from the left shoulder going down, San wears them the opposite direction. He has a mark on his back that is the same as the one in Hiruko's left palm. It is unclear if he and San are twins.

Abilities
He possessed a great amount of taijutsu skill as he managed to keep up with Team Guy, dodging Lee's attempts to strike him while using his augmented snake arm to hold off Tenten and Neji's advances. He fought using snake-like creatures merged to his arm using the Chimera Technique. He could use the snakes to form nets to capture and attack multiple enemies. The snakes could also shoot projectiles. According to Neji, he had more than average levels of chakra.
