Gaara
Wiz: Gaara of the Desert is a short, skinny, pale, stick of a kid, but he's also one of the deadliest shinobi in the world. Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage, leader of the village hidden in the sand. Born prematurely at the cost of his mother's life, Gaara was destined for a childhood of depression and loneliness from the get-go.

'''Boomstick: Not even a minute old and already has a kill under his belt. Though, technically he had a little help. Because... You see... As he was being born, his father was like, "Hey! You know what would be awesome? Let's seal a horrible monster in my son and turn him into an ultimate weapon!"'''


 * [Gaara summoning Shukaku during his fight with Naurto]

Wiz: The process was successful and Gaara became a jinchuriki: one of a select ninja who have powerful tailed beasts trapped within them. Gaara's tailed beast is Shukaku, a giant tanuki with power over sand.

'''Boomstick: Aww, I want a tanuki as a pet. They're so fluffy and adorable, you just wanna hu-- (Shukaku appears) HOLY SHIT, WHAT IS THAT!?'''

Wiz: Shukaku loathed humanity and Gaara had to keep himself awaken to control the monster's rage. However, what no one knew was that Gaara's mother imprinted her chakra into him to protect him in the form of sand. This sand would sometimes act on the mother's will to protect Gaara, accidentally hurting others who assumed it to be Shukaku's influence. As such, Gaara was shunned by his own people and forced to live a secluded life. It was only when his guardian, his mother's brother, tried to kill him that Gaara lost it.


 * Gaara (Part I): A battle... is a gamble... where one pits one's existence against another's... and you try to kill each other... and where only the victor gets to savor the worth of his existence.

Wiz: Convinced his only option was to fight and care for only himself, Gaara became a ruthless killing machine. It was only meeting Naruto that Gaara found a new purpose and cleaned up his act while becoming the Fifth Kazekage before losing Shukaku to the Akatsuki.

'''Boomstick: Well, losing the One Tail was not all bad. As he possess a Magnet-Style Chakra Nature, which is composed of Earth and Wind chakra natures, Gaara can manipulate sand within his vicinity and use it as a weapon to trap and crush his foes. He's so skilled with it, he can even forge weapons from it, bury people underground or send it into another person's bloodstream and control them like some sort of puppet. He can even use it to freaking fly, how the hell does that work?

Wiz: He can mentally adjust the density of his sand, whether it needs to be lighter than air or stronger than steel, He can even use it to stop bombs powerful enough to wipe out an entire village. He can also use everyday sand to create defenses such as his Sand Armor, which encases him in a shell to soften blows yet requires a large amount of his Chakra to maintain.


 * Gaara: I was a Jinchuriki, the embodiment of hatred and power. And I hated this world, and all the people in it... I wanted to destroy it with my own hands. The exact same thing Akatsuki is trying to do today. But a ninja from the Leaf stopped me. I was his enemy, yet he wept for me! I hurt him, yet he called me his friend! He saved me! My enemy, my fellow Jincuuriki... He suffered the same pain as me, yet bore no ill will! There are no enemies here because we've all suffered at Akatsuki's hand! SO THERE IS NO SAND, NO STONE, NO LEAF, NO MIST, NO CLOUD! THERE ARE ONLY SHINOBI! And if you still hold a grudge against the Sand, then when this war is over, come and take my head instead! Our enemies are after the friend who saved my life! If they take him, if we hand him over, our world is finished! I want to protect him, and I want to protect our world! But I'm too young to protect it all on my own! All of you lend me your aid!"

'''Boomstick: This guy started out like the ultimate emo kid, but now he's leader of a nation who united armies of other nations and convinced them to set aside their history to face a common enemy. Despite this, he still carries a gigantic gourd of sand on his back. The sand in question is his mother's will-infused sand that he uses in his Absolute Defense technique. Because of the sand's density and speed, only someone who moves nearly the speed of sound can pass it. He late laced it with gold dust from his father's sand.'''

Wiz: You'd think that'd be hard on his spine enough without the gold....

Zaheer
Wiz: As a teenager, Zaheer joined the terrorist organisation The Red Lotus. The Red Lotus wanted to free the spirit of chaos and destruction Vaatu, and create a new spiritual age by removing world leaders and nations.

'''Boomstick: [Sarcastic] Yeah I can't think of any way that could go wrong. Zaheer and his conspirators would make their move years after Aang's death to kidnap the current Avatar Korra so that the Red Lotus could raise her as one of their own. However, this plan failed and he and his three teammates were incarcerated.'''

Wiz: Even though Zaheer himself had no Bending capabilities at all, he was still deemed dangerous enough to be locked in a maximum security prison at the top of a mountain, made entirely out of metal.

Boomstick: But then 13 years later, the planets aligned in Harmonic Convergence, and a lot of people who had been nonbenders suddenly gained Airbending, the power to manipulate air, including Zaheer.

Wiz: Airbending fit Zaheer like a glove. With his newfound powers, Zaheer was able to escape prison and set out on a journey to free his comrades and bring the world into anarchy.

'''Boomstick: With his newly gained airbending, Zaheer can create gusts of wind from absolutely nowhere. He's strong enough to fight evenly with much more experienced benders like Aang's children Kya and Bumi, take on groups of White Lotus sentries on his own, and he even managed to invent a new Airbending technique: Asphyxiation. This lets him literally pull the air out of someone else's lungs! Holy shit, that's powerful!'''

Wiz: But he has to be near them to use it. And even that isn't Zaheer's most powerful ability.

'''Boomstick: After his lover died, Zaheer let go of his last earthly tether, and became able to fly! This sub skill of airbending was thought to be just a myth until now.'''

Wiz: With this new ability, Zaheer was strong enough to be able to hold his own with Korra while she was in the Avatar state, although she had been pumped full of mercury at the time.

'''Boomstick: But even flight is arguably not Zaheer's best weapon. Before he got locked up, he was the strategist of The Red Lotus and in his quest to bring the world into anarchy he devised a plot to assassinate the Queen of the Earth Kingdom, and end the Avatar cycle once and for all. Wow this guy's strong. Does he even have weaknesses?'''

Wiz: Yes. Even though he can fly, he is still affected by the surrounding environment. Airbending also lacks offensive moves, relying mostly on dodging and evasion.

Boomstick: But even so, if you're a world leader and Zaheer's got you in his sights, just resign cause he'll take the air right out of you.

Zaheer: ...if you base your expectations only on what you see, you blind yourself to the possibilities of a new reality.

TALLY RESULTS

 * Lifting/Striking Strength: Peak human, with his air-bending as strong enough to lift anything lighter than a large ship.
 * Durability: Can survive a building crashing down on him.
 * Intelligence: Close to high intelligence due to his planning.
 * Total Complete rank: Rank Superhuman
