Orochimaru is a primary antagonist in the Naruto series. He is a rogue ninja from Konohagakure, recognized as one of the most powerful shinobi and known as one of the "Legendary Sannin" (Legendary Three Ninja). This title was bestowed upon him and his former teammates, Jiraiya and Tsunade, by Hanzō during the Second Shinobi World War. His main objectives are to capture Uchiha Sasuke to use as a new body for acquiring the Sharingan, and to destroy Konoha.
Background
From childhood, Orochimaru was identified as a genius shinobi and a once-in-a-generation prodigy. His parents died when he was young, and according to Jiraiya, Orochimaru's goals, which were quite alien to the village's ideals, were linked to these painful memories.
He was a student of the Third Hokage, who recognized Orochimaru's natural talent and often told Jiraiya to emulate Orochimaru. The Third was aware of the malice and lust for power within Orochimaru, but chose to pretend not to notice, hoping to quell this aspect of Orochimaru's personality.
Orochimaru's desire for power grew over the years. One day, while visiting his parents' grave, he found the shed skin of a white snake. As the Third Hokage explained, it was known to represent good fortune and luck, which inspired Orochimaru. He began to study kinjutsu (forbidden techniques) and became obsessed with learning all ninjutsu that exists in the world.
After leaving Konoha, Orochimaru joined an elite criminal organization called Akatsuki. What he did while he was a member of the organization is pretty much unknown. The only information that was revealed is that his partner was Sasori and he made an attempt to take control of Uchiha Itachi's body to gain possession of the Sharingan.
Spoiler
After a failed attempt to take over Uchiha Sasuke's body, he was absorbed by Sasuke who didn't want to give himself up to a weakened Orochimaru. During Sasuke's later fight with Itachi, as Sasuke was too weak to suppress his chakra, he managed to escape and tried to take over his body once again, however was trapped in an inescapable dream-like realm by the legendary sword of Totsuka used by Uchiha Itachi.
He was resurrected by Uchiha Sasuke during the Fourth Shinobi War, who used Anko's cursed seal and a piece of Kabuto's flesh to bring him back. After his resurrection, he reabsorbed the chackra Kabuto stole from him and revealed that he doesn't have enough power to take over Sasuke's body and has no interest in the war.
