Appearance

Naka kept grey hair at chin length and dressed in the Uchiha clan's usual high-collared shirt with the crest stitched on the back. His forehead protector was Konoha's, and his flak jacket resembled the Anbu variant, fitted with a pouch on the left strap and lacking the woven waistband. A large equipment pouch and a tanto rode across his lower back.

Personality

What the record shows of Naka points to an obsessive nature. Having awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, he became consumed by the technique Izanagi, wielding it so freely that he cut down some of his own clansmen. Only when Naori subjected him to Izanami did he wrestle with himself and, after a struggle, come to accept the truth of his situation and break the loop it had trapped him in.

Abilities

Naka carried a sword and had at least some skill in kenjutsu. He awakened the Uchiha bloodline dojutsu, the Sharingan, and through it could perform Izanagi, using it with enough mastery to survive combat against several other Uchiha. He also unlocked the Mangekyo Sharingan, which took the form of a red, three-point pinwheel with a prominent central pupil. He is presumed to have died at some point before or during the downfall of the Uchiha clan, alongside the rest of his kin.
