Intelligence: Genius (Tobirama was incredibly intelligent; he established several institutions to facilitate the smooth operation of Konoha, which proved to be so successful that other villages adopted them. He was also incredibly skilled at creating new techniques, having invented a number of them, including the infamous Edo Tensei and the Flying Thunder God Technique. Tobirama was incredibly calculating in battle, often dissecting his opponents' strategies to identify their mechanics and weak points to take advantage of them. He frequently employed pragmatic strategies, such as using Edo Tensei's bodies as suicide bombers or ambushing less cautious adversaries. Tobirama was also a great shinobi warlord, having fought and killed several powerful Uchiha members in his life, including Madara's younger brother and equal, Izuna Uchiha, one of the Uchiha leaders at the time who had the powerful Mangekyo Sharingan. Tobirama was one of the most influential shinobi in history and was reputed to be the best shinobi of his time second only to his brother)
Weaknesses: Tobirama was a pragmatist and generally unsympathetic to his enemies; he tended to refrain from using diplomatic efforts to settle disputes.
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
*: It allows the user to manipulate pre-existing water, or if sufficiently skilled create their own by converting their chakra into water. It's considered one of the most versatile of the five chakra natures, as the techniques can not only change shape but the state as well.
**: A technique that shapes massive amounts of water into the form of a giant, mighty dragon, which strikes the target with great force.
**: A defensive technique that creates a wall of water around the user. The water is raised from below and blown out in the form of a circle around the user, to block incoming attacks or be used offensively to strike a target with the rising water wall.
**: A technique that lets the user fire a high-pressure stream of water out of their mouth. This technique is powerful enough to cut through solid objects, such as the roots of the Divine Tree.
** A technique that lets the user fire water needles out of their mouth, it is usually used to target vital points.
*: The Summoning Jutsu is a space-time ninjutsu that can summon weapons, familiars, tools, and other targets across vast distances by using blood as a sacrifice.
*: A forbidden technique created by Tobirama. It allows the user to revive the dead. To perform this technique, the user must first acquire some of the DNA of the person they intend to revive. The soul of the intended revived must also reside in the pure world, and a living sacrifice is also required for the soul of the resurrected to use as a vessel. After the individual has been summoned and awakened, the summoner can bind the individual to their will by using a special talisman, which is attached to the end of a kunai and implanted in the brain. Various talismans can be used to enact different degrees of control.
* A supplementary technique, created by Tobirama to take advantage of Edo Tensei's infinitely regenerating bodies. By using their own bodies as mediums, the Edo Tensei creates several special explosive tags which attach themselves to a target. When detonated, additional explosive tags are summoned that in turn create more as they too explode. This process is continuously repeated, leading to a chain reaction of consecutive explosions. Tobirama was said to use this technique in conjunction with Edo Tensei whenever he needed to "clear the map." A live individual can also employ the method though the user will die in the process.
*: Another technique that Tobirama created. It allows the user to create clones of himself that can fight independently and even perform their own techniques. However, the clones can be dispersed instantly if struck with a sufficiently powerful blow.
*: A space-time teleportation technique created by Tobirama. It's a technique that allows for almost instantaneous teleportation to any destination that is marked with a special seal. Once activated, the user enters a dimensional void that instantaneously transports themselves to the location of the seal. This formula can be applied in advance to weapons such as special kunai, and the mark can also be used on a touched area, such as an opponent (the seal never disappears from an object) or some other surrounding feature. This technique can also be used to teleport other objects or people, though the size of the object determines the amount of chakra required.
**: A technique that combines the Flying Raijin technique with kenjutsu (sword techniques). While wielding a sword or kunai, Tobirama instantaneously teleports to a destination with the Flying Raijin Jutsu to deal a quick devastating slash to a target.
**: A technique that requires two users of the Flying Raijin Jutsu. After both users mark each other with their respective seals, they will gain the ability to switch their positions at any point in time during a battle. It's often used to make devastating surprise attacks on unsuspecting targets.
: By molding his chakra into the appropriate form, Tobirama can locate and keep track of other living beings through their chakra signatures, working through walls and visual obstructions. Tobirama is one of the most proficient sensors, being able to sense chakra signals countries away and detect individual members of clans by their chakra type.
Unnamed Kinjutsu: Tobirama can use an unnamed Kinjutsu that lets him send his soul to a target, similar to the Spirit Transformation Technique.
