Kushina Senju (Senju Kushina) was a Konohagakure kunoichi from Konoha's Senju clan. She was the second jinchuriki of the Eleven-Tails and the adoptive mother of Dawn Senju.

​Background
​Born into the famed Senju clan of Konoha, Kushina lived most of her youth being caught-up in war, making her seek for a daily "peace". At a young age she went Konoha Academy and enrolled there.

Wanting to make a strong first impression, she proclaimed to her class that she would be the first female Hokage. The other kids laughed at her statement, and began calling her ​Tomato ​because of then- round face and firey red hair. This prompted  her to lash out pummel the kids who kids teased her. This, in addition her of her red hair flying wildly around her as she did so, earned her the nickname of Red Hot-Blooded Habanero.

Kushina was eventually told why she had to leave, because of her special chakra, she was to be the next jinchurki of the Eleven-Tailed  Phoenix. Kushina was terrified by the idea, but she was comfronted by the Eleven-Tailed then-current jinchurki, Mito Senju. Before the transfer was performed, Mito avised Kushina that love was the only way to tame the Eleven-Tails and overcome its jelously.

Personality​
In her childhood, Kushina was a headstrong, impulsive, eccentric, and stubborn girl. According to Jiraiya, Kushina was talkative and tomboyish. Tsunade noted that much of Dawn's personality as well as her ninjutsu style were inherited from her.
