   Naruto Characters
Found this at Wikipedia.....


Team 7

Naruto's original Genin team. No longer an official "team" due to Sasuke's departure.

Hatake Kakashi - A calm and collected J身nin level shinobi assigned to oversee Team 7. His tragedy of having had lost a close comrade in battle has affected him profoundly through the belief that teamwork is more important than following the rules. He is also known for his surgically planted Sharingan eye and his skills he has acquired through it, which have earned him the title of "copy ninja". He is also addicted to adult novels.
Uzumaki Naruto - "The loud-mouthed, idiotic, hyperactive, number one ninja in surprising people", the one the Fourth Hokage sealed Ky迂bi no Y身ko (Nin Tails Demon Fox) within and the main character of the series. Naruto constantly strives for acknowledgement and dreams to one day become Hokage. Disciple of Jiraiya.
Uchiha Sasuke - Arrogant, even-minded survivor of the formerly powerful Uchiha clan, massacred by his own brother; Naruto's rival and best friend. His ambition is avenging and resurrecting his clan. Defected to Konoha's enemy, Orochimaru, to gain more power so he can achieve these goals.
Haruno Sakura - Originally Naruto's crush, now his important friend (though he still attempts romantic overtures to her every once in a while and fails miserably). Sakura is talented with Chakra control and Genjutsu, and has a crush of epic proportions on Sasuke which is as old as time itself. Sakura has become Tsunade's disciple in her quest to become a help to her important people rather than a hindrance.
Team 8

One of the teams formed of the students in Naruto's year who successfully made Genin with him. Appears to specialise in tracking and survival.

Y迂hi Kurenai - Relatively new J身nin specialising in Genjutsu who was assigned to oversee Team 8 and cares a lot for her students. Seems to be romantically involved with her fellow J身nin Asuma.
Aburame Shino - Cool, calm and mysterious member of the Aburame Clan, which uses swarms of bugs for attack and defense. He always wears sunglasses. Contrary to stereotypical belief, he does not appear to be arrogant or aloof as far as his friends are concerned.
Hy迂ga Hinata - Kind, extremely shy, stuttering girl who was supposed to be the heir of the Hy迂ga clan, but was forsaken by her own father because she didn't have enough talent. Hinata has a gigantic crush on Naruto, whom she absolutely admires.
Inuzuka Kiba - Wild member of the Inuzuka family who is always accompanied by his loyal dog, Akamaru. He is even louder than Naruto is and has many abilities associated with canines, such as a very powerful sense of smell.
Team 10

Another team formed of the students in Naruto's year. They were put in the same team because their fathers were also on the same team. Their teamwork is excellent.

Sarutobi Asuma - J身nin who was assigned to oversee team 10; uses trench knives as his weapon and is almost always seen smoking. Apparently romantically involved with his fellow J身nin Kurenai.
Akimichi Ch身ji - "Pleasantly plump" member of the Akimichi clan, which specialises in turning body mass to their favor in battle, whether by throwing it around or converting it to chakra. Very loyal to his best friend, Shikamaru.
Nara Shikamaru - Lazy member of the Nara family, whose specialty jutsu can bind and even strangle people using shadows alone. Shikamaru is very lazy and lacks the motivation to do pretty much anything, but is a true genius with an IQ over 200 who will do everything for his comrades when push comes to shove.
Yamanaka Ino - Sakura's rival for Sasuke's affections and pretty much all other intents and purposes. She's from the Yamanaka family which specializes in using their minds to confuse their opponents, or take over their bodies. She helps her mother run the family flower shop.
Team Gai

This team was originally assembled of Genin one year above Naruto's who took the Ch迂nin exam together with the three teams above (who were known as the "rookie nine"). It was one of the strongest teams to take the exam, if not the strongest.

Maito Gai - Kakashi's eternal rival, Gai is among the strongest J身nin in Konoha owing to his amazing Taijutsu prowess, and is the one in charge of this team (its original number is unknown). He is very close to his student, Lee, and has even passed his quite odd hairstyle on to him.
Hy迂ga Neji - Member of the Hy迂ga clan, branch house; even though he is the strongest Hy迂ga of his generation, he cannot be the heir to the clan because he is the member of the branch house. He used to have a terrible grudge against the head house and believe that fate is predetermined and people cannot change, but his encounter with Naruto changed him and he now acknowledges the power of people to change their fate.
Rock Lee - A Taijutsu specialist and Gai's close student. Originally Lee was a subpar Ninja who could not perform Ninjutsu or Genjutsu at all, but under Gai's guidance he has become a very strong ninja. Lee seeks to make his path in life through hard work; he has mastered several forbidden jutsu that unlock normally hidden chakra but are essentially suicide attacks, and along with his natural mastery of Suiken it seems his efforts have indeed paid off. Lee's goal is to surpass his teammate Hy迂ga Neji.
Tenten - A ranged weapons specialist who looks up to her teammate, Neji. She is an amazing sharpshooter, able to hit a target in the bullseye 100 times out of 100; however, once her weapons are nullified she is pretty much out of attack options.
The Senin

A ninja three man team of Konoha who have trained under the Sandaime Hokage and gone on to become legends.

Jiraiya - Also known as the "Toad Hermit", he is a perverted old man who has great enthusiasm for anything and everything having to do with young women. He was the sensei of the fourth Hokage and more recently has become Naruto's personal teacher. Jiraiya has a contract with Gamabunta, the king of toads, and is the current owner of the scroll on which ninja must sign a blood pact in order to use the "Kuchiyose no Jutsu" summoning technique to summon toads of various sizes and powers. While Jiraiya is capable of summoning Gamabunta himself, he usually summons lesser toads who are easier to control.
Orochimaru - A twisted, manipulative madman whose goal is to become the ultimate being by achieving knowledge of all jutsu and immortality. Among his other goals are crushing Konoha completely and being the catalyst for a world war. Orochimaru has a special talent with snakes and can summon a gigantic snake called Manda.
Tsunade (Fifth Hokage) - A slug-tamer with legendary healing abilities and monstrous strength. The many tragedies in her life have caused her lifestyle to deteriorate and have made her a compulsive gambler,(known as the "Legendary Sucker"...), but after witnessing Naruto's aspiration to become Hokage whatever it takes she regained her faith in Konoha and agreed to become the fifth Hokage. She can summon the gigantic slug, Katsuyu. Currently she consistently uses a jutsu to maintain her appearance of an extremely busty and beautiful woman in her mid-twenties.
Sand Siblings

The descendants of the Fourth Kazekage, who attended the Ch迂nin exam the rookie nine and team Gai participated in.

Sabaku no Gaara ("Gaara of the Desert", called "Gaara of the Sand" in the Viz translation) - Now the fifth Kazekage who lives to protect his village, his life story has been an even darker version of Naruto's; a demon was sealed within him as well, but nobody acknowledged him and the one person who he thought loved him, his uncle, tried to assasinate him out of hate. Gaara has the ability to control any sand, but his moves are the most powerful when he uses sand from a gourd he carries around all the time.
Temari - A keen analyst who carries a huge fan with her, which she uses for her brand of wind-based long-ranged combat. She seems to have a developing relationship with Shikamaru. Sister of Gaara.
Kankur身 - A master puppeteer who uses chakra strings to control his three combat puppets, Karasu, Kurorai and Sanshouo. His face is covered with patterns of face paint. Gaara's brother.
