Temari

Also see the original: Temari Temari is a Shinobi, a Genin of the Village Hidden in the Sand. She is a member of Team Baki, teamed with Gaara and Kankuro.

Background
At an unspecified point before the start of the series, Temari participated in the Chunin Selection Exams. She and her team were the first to pass the Second Exam.

Appearance
Temari is a slender young woman with fair skin and blond, rugged hair that is pulled back into two pairs of pigtails. She wears a purple, long-sleeved shirt with navy blue skirt, and a gray, armor-like top over this. She has a large, red sash tied around her waist which she uses to hold her enormous folding fan. She wears mesh netting around her left thigh and right calf. Her Hidden Sand Headband is tied loosely around her neck.

Personality
Temari seems to be rather level-headed, not prone to letting her and her team's successes get to her head. When her team was the first to pass the Second Exam of the Chunin Selection Exams, she warns her team that the other participants in the Exam are rumored to be much stronger than in past Exams. On the field of battle she is calm and confident, able to execute battle maneuvers efficiently and effectively.

Abilities
Temari uses Wind Style in combat. Her primary method of attack is to utilize her giant fan to generate enormous and powerful gusts of wind to either blow her opponents away or to deflect an oncoming attack. She can use her fan to create large twisters to batter her opponents and toss them across the battlefield. Temari's signature attack is the Wind Scythe Jutsu, which she uses to fire a powerful gust of wind laced with blades to slice up her opponents. Her strongest attack is the Wind Style: Tornado Shock; she fires a concussive blast of Wind Style Chakra to decimate her opponents and the surrounding area.

Season One
Temari participates in the Season One Chunin Selection Exams along with the other members of Team Baki. They are the first to pass the Second Exam, arriving at the tower at the center of the Forest of Death before any other team. Temari warns Kankuro that this may have merely been by luck, and that the other participating teams are rumored to be stronger than usual. Upon passing the Second Exam, Team Baki and the other passing teams must participate in a Preliminary Exam comprised of one-on-one battles to determine who will proceed to the Third Exam. In the seventh battle, Temari battles Naruto Uzumaki. Naruto uses the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu to try to overpower her, but Temari's long-range Wind Style attacks afford her the advantage. Eventually, she uses her Wind Style: Tornado Shock to deal significant damage to both Naruto and the battle arena.
