"A hot-blooded ninja from the Land of Wa. Jiraiya is the pseudonym he assumes when he acts as a chivalrous thief. He is a jovial and openhearted nice guy (self-proclaimed). He distributes the money and treasures he steals from evildoers among the poor. He, himself, is constantly short on money and lives in abject poverty at a temple. He will accept any job for food and strongly respects heroes who endeavor to bring happiness to others."
A hot blooded, gutsy ninja who appeared from the Wanokuni gate, Jiraiya is an alias he uses in his activities as a noble thief, and not his true name. He's a (self-proclaimed) kind, honest and lively fellow who steals gold and other valuables from the wealthy to redistribute to the poor. He himself lives a humble life freeloading at a local temple in utter poverty, and will take on just about any job for rice. Jiraiya likes to spread happiness to those most in need of it, and feels favorable to like-minded people.
"The magical powers of the toad allow him to transcend humanity and the proof is in his horn that resembles that of a horned toad. Through the ninja garb he dons, woven from the great toad's whiskers, he can summon that giant toad of legend. He can also turn the scarf around his neck into a toad's tongue to capture this enemies. He suffers an innate fear of people who resemble snakes and have a strange sort of tenacity."
He has power many times that of a normal human thanks to the power of Gama, his horns serving as proof of his bond with the great horned toad. The great Gama's whiskers are woven into his stealth gear, allowing Jiraiya the power to summon giant toads as needed. The scarf around his neck, too, is a manifestation of the toad and can grapple opponents like a tongue. Jiraiya instinctively despises snakes.
"He is a thief in the fashion of Robin Hood who steals from evildoers to return possessions to their rightful owners. He is proud of never spending the money he steals for himself, but as a result, he's permanently broke. He's a ninja who works multiple part time jobs including a stint as beach house cook at the beach where your class is on a summer school trip. He takes care of all his customer's orders lightning fast, feeding the throng of people gathered at the beach house in a manner reminiscent of the storied thunder beast."
Jiraiya's name and toad motif draw inspiration from the myth of Jiraiya, a ninja whose signature technique was shapeshifting, particularly in the form of toads.
