==Summary==
Naruto Uzumaki is the eponymous protagonist of Naruto.
The son of the Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, he was made the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, Kurama after a mysterious masked man attacked the village on the day of Naruto's birth. Orphaned at an early age, he was given his mother's surname to protect him from the prying eyes of the other villages. But this meant that Naruto was banished for his status as the Nine-Tailed Fox's vessel throughout all of his childhood, leaving him starved of the attention and affection he desired. With the encouragement of the Third Hokage and a fateful event at the Ninja Academy, Naruto resolved to become Hokage himself to win the admiration of the Hidden Leaf Village and find his place in the world, becoming a pivotal character in the Ninja World's history.

Stamina: Superhuman (He has vast reserves of chakra)
Range: Standard Melee Range; Tens of Meters to Thousands of Kilometers with ranged attacks
Standard Equipment:
*Kunai
*Shuriken
*Paper Bombs
Intelligence: Average normally, Genius in combat (Naruto acts headstrong and often acts without thinking, however, Naruto's years as a prankster gave him a cunning imagination that is useful in battle. He is a remarkable tactile learner, able to learn better through executing a task rather than theorizing about it. Naruto's strategies typically involve shadow clones: he may direct his opponent's attention towards one of his clones to disguise his movements; he may transform them into objects or other individuals for surprise attacks; he may make himself seem predictable by creating a pattern, to throw them off by breaking it. He is rather observant, able to notice details others may overlook and subsequently take advantage of it. Even when given new information, he can act quickly. When not in combat, he is generally average in intellect but can be quite stupid sometimes. This is usually used as a comedic effect, making Naruto the butt of many jokes inside and outside the show)
Weaknesses: Using the incomplete Rasenshuriken damages him. Sage Mode has an energy limit (Using Rasenshuriken too many times causes him to revert to his Base Form). Can be an utter and complete idiot at times. Version 2 of his Kyūbi Cloak leaves him in a frenzied state where he cannot reason and differentiate friend from foe
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Shadow Clone Technique: Naruto creates tangible “shadow clones” that can fight and use his techniques, but disappear after one definite hit. Can create hundreds and possibly over 1000 at once.
Summoning Technique: The Summoning Technique is a space-time ninjutsu that allows the summoner to summon animals or people across long distances instantly. Naruto uses this to call frogs, such as Gamabunta, and can also summon shadow clones from a different location.
Rasengan: A famous S-Rank technique said to be superior to even Kakashi Hatake's infamous Chidori, it was first developed by Naruto's father, Minato Namikaze, and taught to Naruto himself by Minato's teacher, Jiraiya. It soon became one of Naruto's signature techniques, plowing through most foes with extreme concussive force.
*Big Ball Rasengan: An even larger, more destructive version of the standard Rasengan.
* Rasengan Super Barrage: After using the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Naruto’s shadow clones each create a Rasengan and bombard the opponent.
*Big Ball Spiralling Serial Zone Spheres: Naruto creates numerous shadow clones and subsequently uses them to create a large number of Ōdama Rasengans which he uses to assault the enemy.
Wind Release: One of the five basic elemental nature transformations. It is performed by making chakra as sharp and thin as possible. Wind Release is mainly short to mid-ranged offensive techniques that combine brute force and keen precision to deal with cutting and slashing damage. Wind techniques are usually performed by generating air circulation and can be enhanced through this method as well. Wind-natured chakra can also be channeled into blades to increase their cutting power and overall range.
*Wind Release: Rasengan: A Rasengan that has been infused with wind-nature chakra (rather than basic chakra). The blast is considerably more powerful than a normal Rasengan, and it also fires countless tiny blades of air that can pierce individual cells.
*Rasenshuriken: Same as Wind Release: Rasengan except now its a ranged attack that is thrown like a giant disc. It can also expand for an even greater range. It was able to liquify (or something to that general effect) Human Pain after cutting him in half. Naruto can create a miniature version of this technique in RS Mode. The FRS, in addition to having a 1000 meter AoE, produced at the very least 36 kilotons of energy.
:
Sage Mode: The result of using natural energy along with a ninja’s normal chakra in perfect balance to drastically empower their abilities.
*Frog Kata: The Frog Kata is a fighting style used exclusively by those who have mastered Sage Mode. When using Frog Kata, the natural energy used by the practitioner to create senjutsu chakra also encapsulates the user as an aura of natural energy. This aura can act as an extension of their body and cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have trained in senjutsu. By utilizing the aura, the user can extend the range and force of their physical attacks. Strikes that seemingly or would normally miss will actually make contact with the target.
*Sage Art: Rasenrengan: Simply two Rasengan used simultaneously. Senjutsu chakra is added to the technique, which greatly enhances the strength of the attack.
*Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan: This is the Sage Mode version of the Big Ball Rasengan. The regular Big Ball Rasengan requires that Naruto make one shadow clone to form the attack and then wield it. When using its Sage Mode variant, however, he can use two clones to form the attack in both of his hands and then give the Big Ball Rasengan to the clones to wield by themselves.
*Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan: This technique adds natural energy to the Big Ball Rasengan. The natural energy rapidly increases it to gigantic proportions and enhances its power beyond that of a normal Rasengan.
*Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan Barrage: After creating multiple shadow clones with each of them holding a Rasengan, Naruto then enters Sage Mode. The clones then expand their Rasengan into Chō Ōdama Rasengan and simultaneously strike the enemy.
Jinchūriki Forms & Abilities: Naruto is the third jinchūriki of Kurama — the Nine-Tails. He is gifted with its enormous supply of chakra. It also gives Naruto accelerated healing (recovering from minor injuries within a few seconds to significant injuries within a day) and depending on the amount of Kurama’s chakra he’s using, Naruto is also given an increase in strength, speed, along with an increase in his healing factor to such levels that he recovered from a Chidori strike through his chest in mere seconds.
