Three Sand Siblings

The Sand Siblings is the group consisting of the Fourth Kazekage's of Sunagakure three children: Temari, Kankurō and Gaara. The three siblings all excel in long-range combat.

Temari is the eldest child. She wields a huge iron fan and uses wind as her weapon too. She is tough and rarely afraid to speak her mind. But she was afraid of her younger brother, Gaara in Part I though. Like, Kankuro, the middle child, he was afraid of Gaara's murderous intent and lust for blood. Kankuro speaks in unique way and uses puppets for battle and seems very trained with it. And the youngest child, Gaara, was rejected by his family and village because he had one-tailed bijuu sealed within him. He was mainly raised by their uncle, Yashamaru as a child. When Gaara discovered that Yashamaru is trying to kill him, he became cruel and would kill anyone to show his existence. He doesn't show any mercy to his enemies or opponents. He uses sand as his weapon and carrying a gourd filled with sand on his back.

Their fighting style and weapons are based on their birthplace, Sunagakure is very famous of combat puppets craftmanship and is a windy desert.

Their relationship changed after Gaara fought Naruto in the Chunnin exam. Slowly, Gaara started to realize friendship and to protect people that important to him. The Three Siblings came to an aid for Sasuke Retrieval Team to help them. In filler arc, Gaara shows many improvement and his relationship with Kankuro and Temari also improved as the story progressed. Gaara started to know "love" and recognized them as his siblings. He saved his only student, Matsuri from the Four Celestial Symbols Men, after learned to protect someone important from Naruto.

In Part I they took part in the Chūnin Exams in Konoha along with their jōnin commander Baki. Although meant to appear as prospective chūnin, they were actually waiting for the invasion of Konoha to begin. They were later sent to aid the Sasuke Retrieval Team as a sign of goodwill between the now allied nations after what happened during the would-be invasion attempt. Some time after the invasion of Konoha failed, its members were promoted to government positions in Sunagakure: Gaara became the Kazekage, while Temari and Kankurō were promoted to the rank of jōnin.

In Part II, Gaara as the Kazekage, vowed to protect the village that once hated him with Kankuro and Temari as his right hand. Now Temari could speak her mind clearly and showing care to Gaara as her own brother. His relationship with Kankuro greatly improved too. They became so close. Later, Gaara along with Temari and Kankurō as his jōnin bodyguards, headed to the Five Kage Summit.
