To be a shinobi is to sacrifice oneself. Closing your eyes to the sunlight, distinguishing yourself in the shadows. That is the true form of ninja.

Basic Information
Name: Shimura Danzō | 志村ダンゾウ
Nickname: The Darkness of Shinobi | 忍の闇
Gender: Male
Age: 72
Clan: None
Looks: Danzo is an older man but despite his age he has deep black spiky hair and looks relatively young. He bears an x-shaped scar on his chin which he has been shown having ever since his teenage/young adult years, though the exact origins of it have yet to be revealed. In his adult years he wears bandaging over his right eye as well as right arm. This bandaging conceals both the sharingan of Shisui Uchiha which Orochimaru implanted in Danzo's right eye, as well as ten other sharingan along his arm which he received from various Uchiha killed by Itachi during the Uchiha Massacre. For clothing he wears a heavy black hooded trench coat with a tan interior and four square tan buttons on the front. This appeared to be the uniform donned by his Root ninja as his two escorts, Orochimaru and an unnamed Aburame, also wore the outfit.
Personality: During his younger days Danzo was shown to have a prideful personality though he lacked the bravery to do what he thought a true shinobi should do. While on a mission with the second Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi and several other team members they were put in a situation where one would need to stay behind and most likely be killed. Danzo wanted to volunteer as he felt that it would be an honorable way to die. But his body locked up. Fear kept him from volunteering himself and as he struggled to muster up the courage, his rival Hiruzen Sarutobi stole his thunder. Hiruzen bravely volunteered with no hint of fear. As an older man Danzo became much more cool and collected. He was a master of deception and was even capable of making Kabuto unrecognizable by his adopted mother Nonou by sending her a series of progressively changing photos all in an attempt to have them eliminate each other. Despite the dark nature of his actions he held the safety of Konoha as one of his primary goals. He believed in doing whatever was necessary for the overall safety and peace of Konoha, even if this meant the sacrifice of many people.

Rank: Forbidden
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 100
Damage points: N/A (-30 to user and loss of a Sharingan eye)
Description: Izanagi is a Genjutsu that is intended to be cast upon oneself and not the enemy. When activated the user removes the boundaries between reality and illusion within their personal space. In a certain degree this allows the user to control their own state of existence. However, this is only maintained for the briefest of moments. When activated it is capable of turning an injury or even death into an illusion allowing the user to escape harm, but not without a grave cost. The user is capable of seemingless instant movement (similar to S/T techniques) as he disappears and reappears and can negate any harmfull effect cast upon himself in terms of physical damage. The use of this technique results in the loss of a Sharingan eye. Whenever the user receives a fatal injury, he or she automatically fades away as a genjutsu, and then returns back to reality, physically real and unscathed in a place of his choosing. Izanagi can only be used by those with the Genetic imprint of the SO6P, weidling the DNA of the Senju clan and the Uchiha Clans Sharingan. In Danzo’s case, since he had multiple sharingan implanted into his right arm he could activate this technique multiple times, each time losing one of the eyes but had a time limit in activating it again. Obito Uchiha, having a Zetsu clone grafted into his body possessed the ability to use the technique as well albeit at the cost of one of his sharingan eyes. Madara Uchiha, having infused his body with the cells of the First Hokage, could also use this technique.
Note: Can only be used by Danzo Shimura as well as Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha bios as long as they have been infused Senju DNA (gained access to wood release).
Note: Danzo can only use the technique 4 times, 3 of which rendered eyes on his arms blind and the last use rendered Shishui's eye, implanted into his right eye socket, blind
Note: Madara and Obito can use the technique a maximum of 2 times, rendering their eyes useless for the rest of the match.

Background Info.
Canon History: As a younger shinobi Danzo was seen with a group of seven ninja that included himself, Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the two village elders, a member of the Akimichi clan and an Uchiha. This group was shown during a flashback in which they were surrounded by a group of Kumogakure master bountry hunters. The group decided that one of them had to distract the bounty hunters while the rest of the group fled. The one who stayed behind would undoubtably be killed. Danzo wanted to volunteer but couldn't bring himself to do it. He wanted to die a shinobi's death but was frozen by fear. Hiruzen then volunteered instead without a hint of fear. Danzo and Hiruzen were life long rivals in a similar way that Naruto and Sasuke are. They were polar opposites in philosophy but still seemed to be close friends. Danzo felt he was always one step behind Hiruzen. But even though Hiruzen volunteered he didn't stay behind. Tobirama instead chose himself to stay behind, naming Hiruzen to succeed him as Hokage before he left.

Through the years Danzo increased in power and eventually became to leader of an offshoot of ANBU called ROOT. This group was extremely secretive going as far as to put a seal on the tongue of all its members which would paralyze them in the event of them speaking about ROOT. Danzo trained the members to ignore their emotions and carry out their missions no matter what. He used ROOT to carry out many covert operations, many of which weren't even known by the hokage. At one point he teamed with with Hanzo the Salamander in an attempt to kill Yahiko, Nagato and Konan. They were able to kill Yahiko but were forced to retreat by an enraged Nagato who summoned Gedo Maze and killed much of their forces.
At some point in time he also had Orochimaru and another Root shinobi accompany him to the Konoha Orphanage where he strong-armed a former agent, Nono, to infiltrate Iwagakure and find out what the village was planning. Soon after, Danzo notices Kabuto Yakushi spying from the window and decides to recruit the boy as well. However, in time, both Kabuto and Nono become assets too dangerous to be left alive and Danzo brainwashes Nono into trying to kill Kabuto through a series of altered photos. He sent Orochimaru to oversee no survivors, but Danzo was unaware that his subordinate did not follow through with the orders and instead took Kabuto under his wing.

One of the biggest impacts Danzo had was during the events leading up to the Uchiha massacre. The Uchiha clan had become disgruntled with the village through a long series of events reaching back to the foundations of the hidden leaf. They had began to plan a revolt against the village, but they had a spy in their midst. Danzo was using Itachi Uchiha to gather information from within the clan. As the situation became worse Danzo wanted to pull the plug and exterminate the Uchiha clan. His lifelong rival Hiruzen Sarutobi however didn't want this. He believed the situation could be resolved through diplomacy instead of violence. Danzo disagreed with this and went behind Sarutobi's back and ordered Itachi to kill the clan.
Danzo was later the one who ordered Sai to join team Seven to replace Sasuke. The plan was to have Sai go to Orochimaru and claim that Danzo wanted to team up and destroy Konoha. This was just a ploy however. The real plan was to have Sai infiltrate Orochimaru's hideout and assassinate Sasuke. Its unknown if this plan was known by the hokage or either of the village elders. Ultimately the plan failed and Sai became attached to team Seven. He began experiencing emotions that he didn't feel as a member of ROOT. Danzo told him that emotions led to hate and hate led to war, but allowed him to remain a member of team seven.
During Pain's invasion of Konoha Tsunade wanted to summon Naruto back to the village in order to give Konoha some more fire power. Danzo vehemently disagreed with this because Naruto was the Akatsuki's goal. Tsunade tried to send a messenger toad to Mt. Myobokuzan to bring Naruto back, but before the toad could leave Danzo killed it. As Pain destroyed the village Danzo and his ROOT members remained below ground in hiding. He ordered his troops to remain there and not aid in the defense of the village. His plan was for Pain to weaken the village and remove Tsunade from power. After that Danzo would take control of the village and name himself Hokage.
During Pain's assault Tsunade fell into a coma due to expending her chakra too far in an attempt to heal numerous people within the village. After Pain was defeated by Naruto the fire Daimyo held a meeting with many high ranking members of Konoha to elect a new Hokage. Danzo attended the meeting and blamed the fall of Konoha on the weakness of Sarutobi and Tsunade when it came to military issues. In the end Danzo was named the sixth Hokage. Its unknown if this was because the Daimyo bought his reasoning or because he was being controlled by Shisui's mind control technique.

Shortly after Pain's invasion of Konoha a meeting was called between the Kages of the five main shinobi villages. Being the newly elected Hokage, Danzo attended the meeting. Each Kage was allowed to bring two bodyguards. Danzo chose to bring two men by the names Fu and Torune. He considered these two to be two of his best members of ROOT. On the way to the Kage summit they were followed by numerous assassins. But using his sharingan Danzo was easily able to dispatch the attackers single handedly. At the meeting the Kages decided to join forces in order to fight against the Akatsuki group. When trying to discus which Kage would lead the forces Danzo used his mind control technique to control Mifune, the leader of the Iron Country. He used the technique to have Mifune nominate Danzo to be the head of the joint forces. This however was seen through by one of the Mizukage's bodyguards Ao due to a stolen byakugan which allowed him to recognize the chakra of Shisui Uchiha in Danzo's left eye. After this point Danzo was no longer trusted by the rest of the Kages and his plans were ruined.
Later during the meeting they were interrupted when Zetsu appeared out of the floor. He notified the Kages that Sasuke Uchiha was in the building. This enraged the Raikage who then set off in search of Sasuke. The Raikage eventually found him and began to battle him. During this battle Danzo planned his escape as the rest of the Kages and their bodyguards were keeping an eye on him. When Sasuke finally reached the meeting room a battle ensued between Sasuke and some of the others. During this commotion Danzo took the opportunity to flee the summit. Before Sasuke could be killed he was rescued by Uchiha Madara and brought before the fleeing Danzo. By now Sasuke had learned the truth behind the Uchiha Massacre and wanted revenge against Danzo. They began to battle.

As the battle commenced Sasuke questioned Danzo about the Uchiha Massacre. Danzo confirmed what Sasuke had learned and spoke poorly of Itachi's failure to kill his little brother. Danzo uttering the very name of Itachi caused Sasuke to be enraged. Sasuke used an arm of Susanoo to crush Danzo. Just as Sasuke thought he had exacted his revenge, Danzo appeared unharmed behind him. The trick behind Danzo's appearance was a technique called Izanagi. It was a technique within the Uchiha clan that had become forbidden. It made illusion into reality, allowing the user to escape death. The cost of the technique was that the eye used would be forever closed. Danzo was able to use this technique with little side effects due to his arm which was covered in sharingans.
Throughout the battle it seemed that Danzo had the upper hand. He showed a proficient use of wind techniques, great use of the sharingan, and a summon called the Baku which sucked up everything before it. Danzo continued to mocked Sasuke and speak of Itachi causing Sasuke's anger to rise. Danzo's available eyes to use for Izanagi began to dwindle and eventually he was down to one. He and Sasuke hit each other in one final clash using chakra natured blades and piercing each other.

Other
Sharingan: Even though he was not a member of the Uchiha clan Danzo was shown to be more than proficient with the sharingan. On his way to the Kage summit he was being tracked by numerous assassins. Danzo was able to spot these assassins and take them out easily. Due to the sheer number of sharingan he possessed Danzo was also able to use the forbidden Uchiha technique of Izanagi.
