Full Name:Naruto Uzamaki
Nicknames: Naruto
Age:15 1/2
Height:5'?"

Gender:Male
Race:* Humean with Kyuubi in him
Alliance: Good
Home: Konoha
Franchise: Naruto Shippuuden
Physical Description: see pic
Weapons:
Abilities/Powers: Because of the demon fox within him, Naruto has access to its great chakra reserves, allowing him to perform jutsu that someone of his rank would ordinarily be incapable of using.[21] Though portions of the fox's chakra constantly mix with Naruto's own,[31] Naruto can forcibly draw upon its reserves in one of two ways: by submitting to rage[32] or by directly asking the fox for a donation of its strength.[33] Once doing so the fox's power begins to consume Naruto, eventually creating a fox-shaped shroud around him complete with a number of tails indicating his current level of strength. While each tail drastically increases his fighting strength, Naruto begins to lose his sense of self as more tails appear.[34] Because he can quickly become a danger to those he cares for in these situations, Naruto has begun to limit his usage of the fox's power.[35]
The Shadow Clone Technique, used to create solid, completely identical copies of the user, is Naruto's most frequently used jutsu. In addition to using these clones to overwhelm his opponents, Naruto often uses them to help him form his preferred form of attack: the Rasengan, an attack that grinds into whatever it touches. By using the copies of himself to spin and mold his chakra into shape, Naruto can form the Rasengan without the hassle required to create it single handedly.[36] In Naruto: Part II, Naruto trains with his shadow clones to infuse the Rasengan with his wind elemental chakra.[37] This culminates in his creation of the Wind Release: Spiraling Shuriken (風遁・螺旋手裏剣, Fūton: Rasenshuriken?), which damages what it contacts on a cellular level. Though this massive level of damage is useful against opponents, the hand he is performing the technique with is damaged as well, making it a double-edged sword.[38]
Personality:With no family to speak of and the villagers of Konoha always showing him animosity for being the container of the demon fox, Naruto never had a source of love or attention during his early childhood.[21] Desiring that which he has lacked all his life, Naruto's dream is to become Hokage, the village's protector, hoping that it will bring him the villagers' recognition and respect.[22] To assist him in gaining this title, Naruto possesses a fierce determination, always confident he can complete a given task with relative ease.[23] Naruto's efforts have proven successful as the series progressed, as many characters have reached the conclusion that Naruto will someday be an excellent Hokage.[24]
Since his introduction, Naruto's determination has resulted in some of his traits rubbing off on those around him, such that in Naruto: Part II his teacher, Kakashi Hatake, notes this to be Naruto's unique power.[25] Gaara, after being defeated by Naruto in battle, discovers that true strength is found in fighting for one's friends, not for oneself.[26] These changes that other characters experience serve as the moral for the part of the story they take place in, and subsequently become the creed for the particular character's life.[27]
Through his ability to change others, Naruto has gained the friends that he lacked during his childhood. Among the many friendships he has formed, none are more prominent in the series than those he has with his two teammates: Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno. With Sasuke, Naruto shares a highly competitive relationship that he likens to brotherhood.[28] Though Sasuke betrays Naruto and the rest of Konoha at the end of Naruto: Part I, Naruto maintains his attachment to Sasuke, readily lashing out at anyone who speaks poorly of him.[29] With Sakura, Naruto possesses a deep dedication to her, rooted in the crush he has had on her for years. Naruto's commitment to Sakura is such that he will do anything to make her happy, vowing to someday return Sasuke to Konoha for her sake.[30]
Abilities
History: Naruto was born the son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki.[20] Soon after his birth, the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox attacked their hometown of Konoha, leaving destruction throughout the village. In order to stop the fox's attack Minato sealed it within Naruto's body, giving Naruto access to its great power at the cost of Minato's life.[21] Before his death, Minato requested that Naruto be viewed as a hero of the village rather than a container for the fox. Many villagers chose to ignore this request, leading to the enactment of a law forbidding anyone to speak of Naruto as the fox's host.[22] With his father dead and his mother presumably sharing the same fate, Naruto has spent all of his life as an orphan, not knowing who his parents were.
