Appearance
Ickshonpe is a slim man that wears a wide variety of colored clothing. He's seen wearing blue pants, a purple long sleeve shirt, and yellow gloves. What's presumably a mask, which bears slight resemblance to a panda bear, is white in the face with a red dot on the forehead and green ears.
Personality
Not much is known about Ickshonpe's personality other than he never speaks, and has only communicated using written statements.
Background
He is claimed to be a resident of the "digital world".[1] Based on his number of votes despite expressing no interest in being chairman, it is presumable that he is well liked in the association.
Plot
13th Hunter Chairman Election arc
Despite personally abstaining from voting, he still finishes 6th in the 4th round of the New Hunter Chairman Election, thus becoming one of the sixteen candidates of the 5th round.
In the 5th election, he comes in 5th place making him one of the 8 candidates to go through to the 6th election. In the 6th election, he comes in 8th place with zero votes, but due to the conditions not being met, a new election is held. During the 7th election, he ties with Botobai in 7th place with zero votes and is eliminated from the Chairman race as only the top four can continue.
As the 8th election is about to begin, he comments to all the Hunters to do as they like as that's not his reality and asks Ging if he would like to trade the Glorious White Spear for the Holy Gold Flag, implying he knows Ging.[2]

Trivia
- His name is a corruption of "Escape", both a computer key and his behavior toward reality.
- In Greed Island, the Spell Card Shop in Masadora at the end of volume 15 bears his mask's likeness, the fact that he has a 6 written on his shirt (which corresponds to the letter I in Greed Island) imply that he is one of the 11 Game masters of Greed Island.
