Fourth-Wall: You know what? Sure!

Off-Limits: I'll get back to you on that!

In-Character

Kissing this Character? Yes, please! But, she's 12/13, so be careful!

Flirting/Relationships Remember, she's 12/13, so probably more age-proper, unless I decide to update her to Shippuden. But, go ahead! Guys/girls are a-okay (though, knowing my ass, I'll probably lean more towards girls!)

IC INFORMATION
Character Name: Sakura Haruno
Species: Human
Canon: Naruto
Canon Point: post-Land of Waves
Character Age: 13 - as an up-and-coming shinobi, Sakura is meant to be involved in all sorts of dangerous and deadly missions where can lead to a chance to either kill or be killed. At this point of her canon, she has experienced this via her encounters with Zabuza and Haku.
CRAU: No
CRAU Explanation: N/A
Character Appearance: At this point of her canon, she's a short young teenager with long pink hair. Her usual outfit comprises of a short-sleeved qipao dress with tight bike shorts underneath with a pouch on her right leg and toeless shoes (they're referred to as 'sandals' but those are definitely shoes).
Powers and Abilities: As a ninja-in-training, Sakura has the ability to manipulate her "chakra", or life energy, to perform various stunts. Her control over chakra is so amazing that, when she gets older, she's able to break free out of any traps she's stuck in with ease. She's also incredibly intelligent.
What Did Your Character Wish For? To become stronger
What Potion Did They Receive? Cerulean
Did They Drink It? Yes

Character Questions:
1. Who is the person your character is most bonded with from their canon? Or who is someone they miss the most? At this point, it would be her teammates in Team 7, Naruto Uzumaki and Sausuke Uchiha, along with their teacher Kakashi Hatake. Kakashi put them together to shore up their weaknesses - the boys' lack of smarts and planning and Sakura's lack of physical skill. They do seem to bond quite well despite the fact that there are a lot of problems between the three due to their hang ups.

2. What are they most afraid of? If anything, it's becoming a burden on anyone. Being a shinobi means being involved in actual combat situations and the possibility of confronting death head on. Sakura, being a more studious shinobi and focused on her looks, is not prepared for the world before her and her time in the Land of Waves showed that, if she were put in a situation where she needed to fight, she would be sorely lacking.

3. What is their weakness? Emotionally, mentally and physically? Physically, Sakura is the weakest of her team, having focused more on her studies and her looks, never really focused on her combat skills, thus she is unequipped to handle more combat-oriented events and wouldn't be for a long time. Emotionally, she's a teenage girl who is head over heels over a moody little snot who won't give her the time of day and hides all her insecurities and true feelings due to not wanting to make people think differently of her.

4. What would make them happiest? As she is just starting off, it’s most likely just showing up Naruto and winning over Sasuke. The former might have a lot of power, but he is as smart as a bag of bricks and Sasuke is the hottest thing she’s ever met. Being able to do both would be an incredible boon for her.

5. What’s their type for a lover? She’s still getting ahold of her hormones, so Sasuke, the quiet, broody and mysterious boy that everyone is head over heels for and yet completely ignoring her and everyone else, is the best for her. And will be the best for her in time, but that’s neither here nor there.

Current Characters: Tsubomi Hanasaki

Character —
Character Name: Sakura Haruno
Character Canon: Naruto
Character Age: 12-13
Canon Point: Post-Land of Waves Arc
Link to History: https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Sakura_Haruno
Inventory: Various ninja tools, including kunai.
Powers —

Skills: At this point at time, very limited ninja and combat skills due to focusing more on studies and her beauty.
Superpowers:

Chakara and Jutsu Usage: Like with most ninja in the Narutoverse, Sakura has the ability to use and control her life energy, or "chakara", to utilize various skills and abilities, from strength augmentation, to walking on various surfaces to manipulating the elements. At this early point in time, unlike her teammates or classmates, Sakura has no unique skills of her own outside of the basic skills taught and mastered at the Academy and her initial time with Team 7, such as the Clone Jutsu and the Disguise Jutsu. This is because of Sakura focusing her attention more on trying to win over Sasuke rather than actually being a ninja.

Inner Sakura: In the original series, "Inner Sakura" was actually Sakura's repressed emotions. Where the outward Sakura was friendly, demure, respectful and caring, "Inner Sakura" was her true feelings being revealed deep inside. Unfortunately, the Confluence has made Inner Sakura a second full-on personality, something like the Grey Hulk/Mr. Fixit to Bruce Banner. This Sakura comes out during times of stress, when the normal Sakura cannot handle what is going on, becoming the Sakura she knows she can be but refuses. This Sakura is much more skilled in combat and in using jutsus. She's seemingly able to mimic abilities used by her friends, but can seemingly copy abilities used by other heroes via chakara manipulation.
Limitations:

Lack of unique combat style

Lack of confidence in herself

Inner Sakura only comes out when it feels like it.
Personality —


Sakura Haruno is a girl of two sides. The Sakura everyone sees is a confident and considerate girl, all smiles and polite to her elders. However, while these are normal emotions of hers, her more rambunctious and explosive emotions are held back inside of her, usually expressed with an imaginary figment known as "Inner Sakura" that would happily reveal and express how Sakura is really feeling. Sometimes, however, these feelings do bubble out and normal Sakura will respond in kind. A part of Sakura's storyline involves finally embracing those emotions and acting like herself, though this won't happen until she grows older.

Sakura has a number of problems that hinders her growth. One of those problems is her actual competence as a combatant. In her early days, Sakura doesn't show much as a combatant due to the fact that she preferred to focus on her studies and her looks in order to win over Sasuke. This leads to moments where Sakura is needed to deal with something or protect someone and is overwhelmed with uncertainty and doubt. This is also complicated by the fact that she is seemingly ignored by her teacher, Kakashi, in favor of training Sasuke or Naruto, the former more than the latter. While later Sakura realizes that she needs to grow up to become a ninja and is trained by Tsunade to become a more competent ninja, this Sakura has none of that growth.

Another problem she has is her infatuation with Sasuke. A lot of her character is focused around being in a strange love triangle as Naruto has shown interest in Sakura but she ignores him in favor of Sasuke, who doesn't give her the time of day at this point and actions that won't happen until years later. Despite this, she seems to heavily cling to him, becoming emotional over his well-being, something that is looked down on during missions.

The Inner Sakura brought about by the Confluence is vastly different than the normal Inner Sakura that exists. This Inner Sakura is a combination of her male teammates Sasuke and Naruto - cool and mysterious and hot-headed and boastful. This Inner Sakura exudes confidence and pride in herself and is determined to fight until either she can't move or her opponent is down. She finds normal Sakura an embarrassment and finds it embarrassing that she has to bail her out at any time.

Gameplay —
Areas of Interest / Brainstorming: One of the big problems with Sakura's character arcs is the bouncing up and down on if she wants to be strong and capable or not. I want to give this girl a massive leg up on what she can and cannot do. Since there's the ability to go back to their worlds and make changes, I want her to change, go back to her world and actually do things.
