*"This time… I hope for you these will be flowers of hope that never die."* - Konan

## Profile

### Identity

Caster's true identity is **Konan**, a kunoichi from Amegakure and a founding member of the original Akatsuki. After Yahiko's death, she was partnered with Nagato, who had since taken control of Akatsuki, and was the only member to call him by his name. After Nagato's death, Konan defected from Akatsuki and became the de facto village head of Amegakure.

### Appearance

Konan had short, straight blue hair with a bun, grey eyes (amber in the anime) with lavender eye shadow, and a white (black in the anime) labret piercing. Konan's eyelashes are shown to be a diagonal line at the bottom corner of her eyes, but in the anime, they are shown to be distinctive lines. She has worn a large light blue paper flower clipped on her bun since she was a child. Her facial expression was usually neutral, though usually protested or looked worried when Nagato performed a technique that would debilitate him. She wore the Akatsuki cloak and her Akatsuki ring on her right middle finger, the kanji on it meaning "white" (白, byaku, haku). She also wore orange nail polish. Although she never removed her Akatsuki mantle, it was revealed that underneath it she wore a revealing navy blue robe, with a large hemline on the front, and exposed her arms, her back, the lateral part of her breast and her belly, with her navel being surrounded by four more piercings. It was also revealed that her headband is on her right hip; instead of the standard sandals and leg-warmers, she wore a pair of blue pants that also functioned as her shoes, with white high heels, inverting the organisation's standard colour scheme.

### Personality

Konan was smart, stoic, calm, and level-headed much like her partner, Nagato. As a child, she was bright, compassionate, and relatively cheerful, in comparison to Yahiko's tough attitude and Nagato's sensitivity. However, the traumatic events since then have led her to become a very serious person, and she never spoke during Akatsuki meetings. Nevertheless, she has always placed the safety of her team-mates above her own. Konan had romantic feelings towards Yahiko, which were reciprocated.

She did seem to be more empathetic than most other Akatsuki members, as she appeared sad whenever she was reminded of her past. She also expressed a great deal of loyalty and courtesy to Pain, doing his bidding without question, looking out for his well-being and always having complete faith in his abilities. She acted as an intermediary between Pain and Ame, the villagers having given her the title "God's Angel", because with her paper wings activated, she resembles one.

She had the ability to read Pain's emotions without him facially expressing them, presumably as a result of having known him for so long. As soon as Tobi ordered Pain to capture the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, she could tell right away that there was something about the order that very much upset her emotionally deadened partner.

After Nagato's sacrifice, Konan becomes fiercely adamant to protect Naruto Uzumaki, the person Nagato entrusted his mission of world peace to, even going as far as to proclaim all of Ame's loyalty to him. She was equally fierce in defending Nagato's remains from Tobi going as far as to prepare herself for suicidal attacks against him if it meant protecting Nagato and Naruto from him.

In the anime, Konan was shown to be more of a realist than Nagato, as Tobi stated he did not expect Naruto's arguments alone would be enough to turn her against Akatsuki, which she further elaborated when she compared Naruto to Tobi and realised Naruto is light personified while Tobi was darkness personified. Like Nagato, also she also regained her high regard for Jiraiya because prior to her fight with Tobi, she reminisced about her time with Jiraiya.

## Abilities

Konan is an S-rank kunoichi and her skills were held in high regard by her partner, Pain. She has an amazing natural talent for origami. As a child, after training with Jiraiya, she was able to form paper weapons infused with her chakra. Tobi highly underestimated her during their combat, leading him to lose his right arm and half of his mask in the process. She studied Tobi's techniques and did countless simulations, which further demonstrates how experienced she is. Even Tobi expressed surprise that he was forced to rely on the forbidden Izanagi to survive her final assault at the cost of his left eye.

Konan has shown a natural talent for origami, even developing it into her main ninjutsu. She has created a unique transformation technique called Dance of the Shikigami, which can turn her entire body and clothing into thousands of sheets of paper, which she can control at will and form into any shape or color. To travel long distances, she can fold them into butterflies or planes for powered flight, and to attack, she hardens the sheets and fold them into arrows and shuriken. She can also restrain opponents by blanketing them in sheets, thus restricting their movement and asphyxiating them. Befitting (and likely inspiring) her title as Angel the papers can also form large wings for further weaponry, though she is capable of hovering without them.

Despite being made of paper, Jiraiya's Fire Release: Flame Bullet, which was empowered by oil, didn't even damage her. The power of the paper attacks could even overpower a fire attack. Konan is susceptible to oil-based attacks, which stick to her and keep her paper from unfolding, although she is not hampered to the same extent by water, as shown when Pain had his summon use Water Release: Violent Bubble Wave on her to wash the oil off, as well as when she was fighting against Tobi in the rain. Konan can make Paper Clones that she could use to fight in her place. She could hide explosive tags in them so that they would explode, and catch an enemy off guard. Konan's ultimate jutsu is the Paper Person of God Technique, which can split a large lake. The technique contained six hundred billion explosive tags that would explode for a full ten minutes, which forced Tobi to use Izanagi to survive since his intangibility only lasts for five minutes.

Konan has been shown to be able to produce and fold enough paper to mimic environmental surroundings, allowing her and those of her choosing to hide in places one normally wouldn't be able to. Konan's favored origami form are flowers; she wears one in her hair, gives a bouquet to Naruto as a sign of peace, and covers the bodies of Yahiko and Nagato in them. These paper flowers are dependent on Konan's chakra to maintain. As her chakra levels drop, the flowers lose their form and fall apart.

### Skills

#### Class Skills

* Item Construction (B Rank): Caster was able to make tools entirely out of paper boosted by chakra and again they worked just like real like tools to the point where they are able to shred metals bars like they were paper ironically.

* Territory Creation (A Rank): Caster is well known for her use of paper in creating bases and transmuting large areas into paper, despite the fact that it is made out of paper it is impossible to see the difference until she reveals the fact to others. Caster in life turned an entire lake into paper bombs. When in her territory Caster gains a boost in Item constuction and Endurance perimeters by 1 rank. The prana costs of her skills also reduce dramatically as she is using already made paper from the environment around her.

#### Personal Skills

* Ninjutsu (B Rank): A type of magecraft used by Caster. Allows her to use certain basic techniques such as, body replacement, walking on water and basic clones. She was a user of wind, earth, water and Yang release. She is also able to form explosive paper clones that look and use abilities (not including Noble Phantasms) just like her.

* Eye of The Mind (True) (B Rank): Caster was a sensory types ninja as well as a great strategist in battle, she studied an untrustworhty ally and found a weakness in his near invincible technique in preparation for a fight she might have with him years later and although she did not win she forced his hand and was the closest to defeating him until the Fourth Great Ninja War. This skill allows Caster to calmly analyse the battle field and deduce the appropriate course of action.

* Subversive Activities (D Rank): Caster played a role in an attack staged by the Akatsuki in other to capture a target in an enemy village, this role involved her killing of enemy ninja in secret and attempting to gain information off them via interrogation.

### Noble Phantasm

#### **Shikigami no Mai; "Dance of the Shikigami"**

This is the technique Caster was the most well known for hailed as an Angel of God for the wings she gained upon using this technique alowwing her to fly. Caster remembers the end of her life shifting her alignment from True Neutral to Neutral Good permanently. Meaning that even if she undos the technique she still stays as Neutral Good. Caster remembers the promise to she made and was made to by the hero of the Fourth Great Ninja war. She gains a boost to her agility in this form and also gains a strength boost. Caster is also extremely hard to actually kill or hit because she is effectively made out of chakra boosted paper, allowing her to reform her body from any excess paper in the area meaning you would have to destroy her completely or have her drain her prana while in this form to kill her. Her attacks gain strength bonuses against characters with the Evil alignment, however she also loses 1 rank in Endurance against Evil alignment characters both permanently.

#### **Kami no Shisha no Jutsu; "Paper Person of God Technique"**

Her strongest technique used against a powerful enemy, Caster can only use this technique in her territory. Splitting up her territory in two Caster creates a seemingly endless abyss filled with 600 billion paper bombs. This absurd technique was created to kill 1 specific enemy after studying him for a weakness of his. Caster can designate 1 particular enemy target for this technique causing them to be effectively sucked towards its center other targets can of course be harmed but they are not forced into the technique and generic flight or other means of escape is possible. Due to the nature of escape used to survive the technique the enemy targetted is forced to use a technique that affects causuality or reality itself to escape it. It is also possible to escape using a combination of high Luck and the Instinct skill or things of the equivalent. Upon using this technique, regardless of what is left Caster's territory is destroyed and she would be forced to make a new one if she wants to use it again.
