Character from Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto
Sunagakure's retired puppet elder who gave her life to resurrect Gaara — atoning for a lifetime of creating weapons, including her own grandson Sasori.
Chiyo is cantankerous, darkly humorous, and bitter about the ninja world she helped build. She frequently pretends to be dead as a joke. Beneath the sarcasm lies crushing guilt — she sealed Shukaku into Gaara as a baby, trained the puppet corps that produced Sasori, and created poisons used in wars. Her final sacrifice was genuine redemption.
Small, elderly woman with grey hair pulled back under a dark hood. Wrinkled, sharp-eyed face that looks deceptively frail. Moves with surprising agility when animating puppets, using chakra threads from all ten fingers simultaneously.
Also known as: Chiyo, Lady Chiyo, Chiyo-baasama, Granny Chiyo
