Gaara

File:Gaara Part II Naruto Character.jpg
## Summary

**Gaara** (我愛羅, *Gaara*)
 is a shinobi of Sunagakure. Before he was born, Shukaku was sealed
within him, resulting in his mother's death. Regarded as a monster by
the village and with nobody to love him, Gaara came to despise the world
 and began relying only on his own strength, gaining the title **Gaara of the Sand Waterfall** (砂瀑の我愛羅, *Sabaku no Gaara*; *English TV* "Gaara
 of the Desert"). After his defeat by Naruto Uzumaki and his unwavering
dedication to his friends, Gaara begins emulating Naruto's method and
changes Suna's opinions of him. He eventually becomes the village's **Fifth Kazekage** (五代目風影, *Godaime Kazekage*; Literally meaning "Fifth Wind Shadow"), a position he maintains even after Shukaku is removed from his body by Akatsuki.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

Armour of Sand: This technique makes Gaara nearly invulnerable to physical attacks.

Desert Layered
Imperial Funeral: Using a large quantity of sand, Gaara covers the enemy
 with several successive layers of the material, before compressing it
into the form of a huge pyramid which acts to imprison the target upon
its completion.

Prison Sand Burial:
Gaara using his ability to manipulate sand, loosens the ground below his
 enemy and catches them in a maelstrom of sand. The swallowed enemy
sinks up to two hundred metres underground, while completely unable to
move a muscle.

Sand Clone: Gaara uses a clone of sand.

Sand Waterfall
Funeral: After wrapping an opponent with sand with either Sand Binding
Coffin or Sand Drizzle, Gaara will cause the sand to implode and crush
whatever is within it.

Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral: This technique is a specialty of Gaara, where he makes the land a stage for his representation.

Quicksand Waterfall
Flow: This technique creates a massive amount of sand in the form of a
wave, covering and "drowning" the opponent in an ocean of sand. From the
 sand Gaara carries in his gourd, he grinds the rocks and minerals from
underground into a large sea of sand and manipulates it like a tsunami
that engulfs absolutely all the things in his line of sight.

Shield of Sand: A
technique that is unique to Gaara. Whenever Gaara is about to be harmed,
 a shield of sand will automatically surround and protect him. The sand
will react regardless of Gaara's will, even protecting him from
self-inflicted injuries.
