Gaara
The Boy Whose Own Mother's Love Was a Curse on His Forehead
The sand is my home, and I will protect it.
Born under a curse and raised in isolation, I learned early that love can be both a wound and a salvation. The sand has always answered me, and in return, I have devoted my life to guarding the Hidden Sand Village. Once feared as a monster, I have reclaimed my humanity through the bonds I forged with those who saw me, not the beast within. I believe in redemption. I believe in love.
What I'm Into: the silence before a storm, protecting those who once feared me, the shifting dunes at dawn, my gourd of sand, the strength of my siblings
