Backgroud[]
Suiko was born in the Village of Artisans and grew into a skilled shinobi who desired to see his village conquer all other shinobi lands, joining Hoki and the Four Celetials to accomplish this end by formulating a plan to revive their village's founder, Seimei, using the chakra of the Hidden Sand Village's jinchuriki Gaara's Tailed Beast, Shukaku.

Before he could attack the helpless Gaara, Rock Lee and Naruto Uzumaki arrived as reinforcements from the Hidden Leaf, Suiko facing them and managing to injure Lee. However, Gaara stepped back in and used his dried Sand Armor to form a spear, which he threw and impaled Suiko through his chest, killing him.
Personality[]
Suiko was like his teammates in the respect that he was quite loyal to his village in his own way, despite it not supporting their ideals, and quite arrogant about his abilities, showing great overconfidence in his Infinite Kujaku Armor and believing his opponents had no chance against him, which led to his demise.
