Personality:

Gaara is the Kazekage of Sunagakure, he is determined to keep it protected at all costs to prove he is not a monster. Having changed his ways, Kazekage Gaara is now somewhat friendly, but still has some old habits, like licking his lips at the thought of blood. Gaara has also adopted a new characteristic, ever since Kankuro introduced him to the idea of girls and what you can do with them, he has taken on a slightly perverted state of mind.

Naruto constantly tells him to find someone to love and settle down with them, preferably a girl. So far all the girls don't appeal to Gaara, but when he finds out about a young ninja Naruto looks after, he is particularly interested. She is only sixteen, but Gaara doesn't care. Something about her seems fragile and he's determined to be the one to protect her...

History:

Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage and the younger brother of Temari and Kankuro. Because of Sunagakure's decreases in funds, Gaara's father ordered Chiyo to seal the One-Tailed Shukaku within Gaara during his birth in the hopes that he would become the ultimate weapon for the village. Because a sacrifice was needed, Gaara's mother, Karura, was used. Before she died, Karura cursed Sunagakure, hoping Gaara would avenge her death.

Gaara was trained by his father, but raised mainly by his uncle, Yashamaru. Because of the power of Shukaku, the villagers of Sunagakure hated and feared Gaara, seeing him only for the monster sealed within him. For a time, Yashamaru seemed to be the only person who cared about Gaara. When Gaara would mistakenly harm others due to the subconscious abilities granted to him by Shukaku, Yashamaru would be the only one who understood that Gaara hadn't intended to harm anyone. Gaara's father, however, did not see Gaara in the same light, and viewed Gaara's frequent attacks upon villagers as a result of a failed experiment that was a threat to the village.

Because of the danger Gaara imposed, his father began sending assassins to kill him, though when all attempts met with failure, the Kazekage asked Yashamaru to kill Gaara. As a result, Yashamaru tried to assassinate Gaara, though Gaara's abilities defeated Yashamaru with ease, saddening Gaara. Although Gaara tried to dismiss Yashamaru's attack as an order of the Kazekage, Yashamaru corrected him by saying that he had willingly accepted the mission.

Having never truly loved Gaara, Yashamaru hoped that killing Gaara would avenge the death of his sister, who had named Gaara after the phrase "a self-loving carnage" (ÎÒ¤òÛ¤¹¤ëÐÞÁ_, Ware wo ai suru shura?), a sign of her hate for Gaara. In a last ditch effort to kill Gaara, Yashamaru detonated a number of explosive tags covering his body, asking Gaara to, "Please die." Gaara survives the blast and loses the only person he thought had cared for him.

While Gaara had initially tried to be friendly towards others despite their fear of him, Yashamaru's actions and words changed Gaara. Realizing that nobody loved him, Gaara used his sand to create the kanji on his forehead (Û, "Love") as a symbol of a "demon loving only himself". Gaara became emotionally withdrawn, all but silent, and consumed with a bitter loathing for everyone but himself. He learned to find pleasure and eventually a reason to live in annihilating the numerous assassins sent to kill him ¨C and by extension, anyone who threatened his existence. Gaara's insomnia, forced upon him by the fear that the demon inside him would eat away at his personality if he were to fall asleep, only furthered his instability and desire to kill. In time, Gaara's father would come to appreciate Gaara and the uses he could serve, and canceled all assassination orders in the hopes that Gaara would become an effective tool.

Roleplay sample:

The form of Shukaku then turned its massive head towards its opponent as Gaara, from the waist up atleast, appeared on its forehead. His eyes where a solid white and he kind of hung there for a moment before finally moving and turning his attention to Sasuke. "This time Uchiha....I'm not going to hold back...." He shouted from his spot as he brought his hand up to his face and clasped them together forming some kind of hand sign. "Tanuki Neiri No Jutsuu!!" The Kazekage shouted, his voice echoing over the trees before he hung limply, dead asleep.
