Gaara Country: Wind Village: Sand Weapon: Sand A genin from Sand Village who comes to the Leaf Village for the Chunin exams, Gaara is actually somewhat like Naruto. That is, he has a demon living inside of him. However, where Naruto has made friends and is no longer isolated, Gaara has no friends and everyone in his village fears him. This has made him angry and violent. Gaara's demon protects him and gives him special powers, making him extremely difficult to defeat in battle.
