Shrieking Scream, given as Shriek Scream in the Viz release, is a Ninja Village graduate of the fifth class known as Potential and a member of the Heavenly Ninja Party. He joins the party's campaign against Flashy Flash and Speed-o'-Sound Sonic.
Scream cuts a strange figure. A bulky mask or helmet stretches the outline of his head and bears a second face across its surface, with his own mouth showing only through the mask's yawning opening. He rounds out the look with pale garments that include a collared vest.
In common with his fellow Heavenly Ninja Party members, Scream trusts fully in his own skill. He gladly bands together with other Ninja Village graduates to raise their odds of killing Flash, whom he loathes for razing the village. Even so, and despite the harsh years he spent there, he keeps faith with the village's laws.
Scream came out of the Ninja Village's fifth graduating cohort, labeled Potential, and afterward signed on with the Heavenly Ninja Party. The party first confronted Sonic at his hideout to introduce itself and lay out its bid for world domination, along with its aim to kill Flash and Blast, disclosing that it answered to Empty Void, the figure it called That Man; it ordered Sonic to draw Flash to the hideout. When the group later broke into the duel between Sonic and Flash, annoyed that Sonic had not delivered Flash to the chosen spot, Sonic knocked Scream flying, and the party then turned on both fighters and branded Sonic a traitor. Blast intervened, routed the party, and teleported everyone to Sonic's hideout, where they found Saitama beside the already-defeated Ninja Village leader. Scream watched Byakko and Genbu appear and fall to Blast and Empty Void, and the impressed party tried to make Saitama their master; rebuffed, they resolved to shadow him instead. His training gives him speed and reflexes far past a normal human's, and he can loose screams far louder than an ordinary person. He is a proven Ninjutsu expert who carries a sword, though the webcomic depicts him wielding sickles as his main weapon and places him in the fifteenth class, Iron Plate.
