HISTORY-
    Keshio Dahji was born in the blistering heat of the desert in the southern reaches of the Earth Kingdom to a couple whom were both traveling merchants. His mother was a firebender, yet barely knew anything about her own heritage and bending discipline. His father was a normal citizen of the Earth Kingdom - and a heavy drinker. As a kid, he traveled through various locales as his parents continued their business. When Keshio reached the age of 8, his father got so drunk that he beat his mother to a bloody pulp right before his own eyes and vanished right afterwards. Keshio's mother eventually recovered, but not fully. She was in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. However, this did not stop her from teaching her son what little she knew about firebending so he could better protect himself than she did. Eventually settling down in a coastal village in the western Earth Kingdom, Keshio was put through the local school by his mother while she opened up her own store to keep her business going. Before he could even complete school, his mother passed away when he was 16. Keshio tried to keep the store going, but having difficulty getting new stock forced him to turn to a life of crime and steal things to sell. As he stole more and more, young Keshio came across scroll after scroll of firebending techniques. He taught himself more about bending with his little collection when he wasn't out thieving or selling stolen goods. Eventually, he was found out by the guard of the region when he was around 19. Keshio fled the village and left his mother's shop behind. The rising industry and technology of the world thanks to the efforts of the legendary Avatar Aang and the Fire Lord had greatly reduced the business prospect of traveling merchants. Armed with only his firebending, Keshio offered his services to people in need of certain people out of their life, permanently, in exchange for gold to support his travels. Only taking cases he deemed justified, his exploits while on the run for years eventually earned him the monicker of the "Snake of the South." Finally realizing his father was to blame for all of this and hearing talk of a merchant man with the name "Dahji" in the grand Republic City, Keshio set out to the United Republic to escape the Earth Kingdom authorities and start life anew after one final assassination.

    WANTED - Keshio Dahji : For Theft and Assault of numerous Officials by decree of the Earth King
    WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE - Snake of the South: For Murder, Theft, Robbery, and Assault by decree of the Earth King. Approach with extreme caution.

Re: Legend of Korra RP - Characters

Postby Tera253 » Fri Dec 09, 2011 7:18 am

GENERAL-
Gender [hurrdurr]: Tera Female
Name: Kozue Maziki Zinava
Nickname: That one woman we all know but don't want to admit we know Redneck [see below]
Age: 28
Nationality: Water Tribes
Bending/Fighting Style: Waterbending

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE-
Eyes-
Eye Color: Green
Other Eye Traits: uhh... more green.

Hair-
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Hairstyle: Kozue's hair is long and slightly wavy. It is almost waist-length, and she generally lets it hang.
Other Hair Features: She usually has a few random beads in her hair.

Body-
Height: 5'0"
Weight: 118
Build/Frame: Kozue is more of the short, muscular type, but she's not super-buff or anything.
Skin Tone: Dark
Distinguishing Marks (Scars, birthmarks, freckles, etc.): A series of scars or birthmarks roughly dominate the entire radius of her neck, giving it a reddish color, and earning her the nickname of 'Red-Neck'

Other-
Most Dominant Feature: Kozue's frame gives her a distinct curvy shape. Isn't to say she's busty; but the girl's got curves.
Physical Disabilities: None, but is about as smart with most technology as your grandfather.
Distinguishable Clothing/Accessory: Although normally she's decked in regular Water Tribe apparel, she hasn't forgotten her heritage, and it's believed she's got a preserved set of Swamp Leaves which she will sometimes wear--just for kicks... or because it's so damn hot.
UPDATE 31 December 2011: images of what Kozue wears. :B
Swamp Attire (also rumored to be her underthings)
Republic City Attire (which is what she'll be seen in the most often)
With Respect to a Time-Honored Swamp Philosophy


HABITS-
Drugs: What else do you do when you're lost in the wilderness?
Smoking: is willing to try anything.
Drinking: when convenient, sure.
Other Bad Habits: She's pretty when she cleans up--*if* she would clean up...
Quirks: She's known for "altering" clothing when she gets too hot, sometimes just shedding it altogether. Kozue is resilient to the cold, but at the price of getting hot easily. Thus, she is comfortable at colder temperatures.

BACKGROUND-
Birthplace: Foggy Swamp; some remote, god-forsaken village
Education: What education? a little knowledge on history and culture during her visit to the Southern Water Tribe.
Training: Kozue got her unorthodox waterbending training from her native swamplands, and had some healing and combat training in the Southern Water Tribe.
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: "Y'all ain't never gonna believe what I saw last night!"

FAMILY-
Anything Worth Mentioning: They're all still alive somewhere. It's rumored that her family tree doesn't fork, but that cannot be proved.

OCCUPATION/SKILLS-
Job: A dealer of herbs and remedies; life in the swamps taught her a lot about most kinds of plants and what their uses were, as there were lots of different kinds of plants to choose from where she lived.
Time Spent Having Job: technically since she was old enough to walk and talk and exploit capitalism.
Skills Learned/Learning: Kozue has moderate bending skills, including healing, and her healing skills are augmented by the various herbs and remedies that she concocts.


HISTORY-
Write AT LEAST one paragraph (7-10 sentences) describing your characters history:
Kozue was born into a large family down in the depths of the Foggy Swamp Tribe. With the dawning of a new age full of newfangled technological marvels, a lot of the tribe members travelled parts of the world to at least see what it entailed. some stayed out there, others returned, and the ones that stayed out there often paid a visit back home. Kozue was always the adventurous type, and when she was old enough, she joined a swampbender exodus to the Southern Water Tribe. most of the people that went were only there temporarily, and even Kozue wound up going home after a few years down there learning useful skills. She was soon drawn by the allure of the mighty Republic City, which she travelled to. Having never been one for social pleasantries, she takes the same cultural approach she does everywhere--her way rules. Most of her vices are simply things that most people would view as socially awkward, inappropriate, or embarrassing, and so Kozue has yet to have any real trouble with the law, although some people have tried getting on her case about the plants she sells. Her connections back home keep in touch.


OTHER-
Other Things Worth Mentioning: You might be a redneck if your name is Kozue Maziki Zinava.

Anything Worth Mentioning: He has 1 sister named Madzo, a mother, and a father. His great-aunt (His maternal grandmother’s sister) is Ty Lee. His sister is 27 and currently lives in Bas Sing Se, helping restore the cultural heritage of the Earth Kingdom. Madzo is an earthbender, since Lekzo’s father is an earthbender while his mother is a firebender. She is training a new force to protect the culture. His mom and dad live in the village he was born in (Zozu).

Occupation and skills
Job: National Police Officer
Time Spent Having Job: Since he mastered firebending at 22.
Skills Learned/Learning: He is a renowned firebender and combat expert. He is learning more and more every day about people and their tendencies.

History

When Lekzo was born, there was not a single problem. The birth went well, his mother was fine, and the family accepted the baby fully. They sent him off to school in Zozu, population 3,000, at the right age. Him and his sister Madzo attended the same school. Lekzo had an average amount of friends in school. His closest childhood friends, Kozid and Jennik, were the greatest part of his early years. He remained friends with Jennik until he turned 16. He and Jennik shared a birthday, but he always seemed to overshadow her. Jennik decided to take this into her own hands. On their birthday (which happened to fall in the summer), she burned Lekzo’s party to the ground. This made Lekzo want to pursue a career in crime. Him and Kozid joined the local policing school in the capital at the end of that summer.

Within 4 years, he had mastered combat, officer training, and firebending. Kozid was a nonbender, but he was an even match for Lekzo when he had a proper sword. They formed the Zozu Authorative Watchers, or ZAW. Lekzo and Kozid were both of the chiefs, and 5 other men and women were officers. Their job was to protect Zozu, since it was the closest town to the Ashen Sea (The Sea between the Western Air Temple and Fire Nation). Since it was right on the coast, pirates had their way with the town and the rest of the Fire nation couldn’t care less. For the past 3 years, they have successfully prevented many raids. Lekzo is currently one of the most highly viewed people in Zozu and is still working for justice. His main target is Jennik, who continued her life of crime.

HABITS-

Drugs: none
Smoking: Doesn't smoke
Drinking: Living on the streets, despite her age, Kaida has had a few drinks before. She tries to stay away from alcohol, seeing as it slows her down, but she can hold her liquor most of the time.
Other Bad Habits: No matter who she's speaking to, Kaida will talk back if she gets annoyed or pissed off.
Quirks: She is a talented liar, but once one gets to know her better, they can tell by the way she speaks from the corner of her mouth that she's stressed or lying. She also hates extremely happy-go-lucky people.

BACKGROUND-

Birthplace: Remote Fire Nation village
Education: She has some knowledge of culture and history, but is mostly just street smart.
Training: Trained under a firebending master, who also taught her to use a sword.
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: Kaida isn't very spiritual. She believes in destiny, but that everyone has the ability to shape their own destiny.

Time Spent Having Job: 8 years
Skills Learned/Learning: Bartering, intermediate bending, many forms of hand-to-hand combat, and other survival skills.

HISTORY-
Kaida was born in a remote Fire Nation village. She has very little knowledge of her mother, seeing as she died when Kaida was 8. Her father was a Fire Nation military official with a quick temper,(guess we know where Kaida gets it from) and a bad drinking habit. After her mother died, Kaida's father would often return home at night, drunk, and beat her. The worst injury she ever recieved from him was a serious burn on her left arm, that left a serious scar. She ran away when she was 10, living on the streets and trading and stealing for a living. She vowed that, one day, she would find her father and punish him for making her childhood a living hell.
After two years of living life on the streets, Kaida was taken in by an old man who trained her in the art of firebending, and taught her how to use a sword. She lived and trained with the man for three years, until he died. She then set out to find her father, learning many different forms of combat on her journey. After 6 months of searching, she finally found him in the Capital City of the Fire Nation. She was only 15, and killed him without hesitation. For the past two years, she has been residing in the Republic City, attempting to avoid the anti-benders , but otherwise continuing her life as normal.

OTHER- Kaida is a very quiet, brooding type. She has a quick temper and is reluctant to trust anyone because, after what her father put her through, she's afraid that she'll just get hurt.

WANTED IN THE FIRE NATION: Kaida Odair: For Numerous Thefts and the Murder of a Fire Nation Military Official
Used to be Zutarafan101 (ZF)

Not sure if I'll get this right the first time or not, since I'm still cautious about what kind of world Korra's is, but hell, here we go. I'm just gonna run with someone I'm familiar writing who is more or less an OC, and just embrace it the way others embrace their OC's. :oops:

GENERAL-

Name: Jayne
Nickname: Killerbee
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Nationality: Fire Nation (Colonies)
Bending/Fighting Style: Precision firebending, street scrapping


PHYSICAL APPEARANCE-

Eyes-

Eye Color: Olive
Other Eye Traits: Dulled eyes, tend to have bags underneath

Hair-

Hair Color: Orange
Hairstyle: Bobbed, shaggy
Other Hair Features: Thick


Body-

Height: :?:
Weight: :?:
Build/Frame: Stickly, slight muscle (Anyone help me with the height/weight business here?)
Skin Tone: Pale
Distinguishing Marks (Scars, birthmarks, freckles, etc.): So many freckles


Other-

Most Dominant Feature: Red hair/freckles
Physical Disabilities: Voice is a bit raspy/gnarled
Distinguishable Clothing/Accessory: Black/Yellow striped armband


HABITS-

Drugs: None
Smoking: Heavy (hence the voice)
Drinking: Moderate
Other Bad Habits: Profanity
Quirks: Blushes easily, rubs eyebrows when nervous/frustrated, oddly-phrased profanity


BACKGROUND-

Birthplace: United Republic
Education: Informal mechanical apprenticeship
Training: Specialized firebending, but lacks basic broad training
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: Anti-spiritual


FAMILY-

Anything Worth Mentioning: Never knew father, mother died of illness when she was young - no known relatives otherwise

OCCUPATION/SKILLS-

Job: Mechanic
Time Spent Having Job: Eight years; two years training, five serving as full-on employee
Skills Learned/Learning: Specialized firebending. Can light fingertips like small blowtorches, which are treated as a tool ("Time to bust out the ol' Torch Tips"), heat up appendages easily, redirect small amounts of 'lightning' (aka electrical currents). Essentially, precision-based firebending, but has not learned how to execute traditional combat-based firebending - cannot shoot fire projectiles, direct large streams of fire, etc.


HISTORY-

Write AT LEAST one paragraph (7-10 sentences) describing your characters history:

Jayne grew up without a proper father figure, and her mother viewed her more as a burden than anything else. At the age of 16, her mother died of illness contracted while serving as a prostitute. She was taken in by a local mechanic - Manabu, a man with no family other than those who work at his shop (The Wayward Wrench) - who uses firebending as part of his toolset. Born a firebender from her father's side, Jayne learned under the tutelage of the mechanic how to control fire in very precise, small-scale ways to repair/alter mechanisms in the various devices of this age of developing technology. Her and Manabu have a tamed wolf-bat pet raised from a pup that Jayne found and named 'Smudge' - he tends to stay in the shop most of the time.

OTHER-

Other Things Worth Mentioning:

Witnessing various sexual atrocities while growing up and being abused in such manners herself due to her her mother's career/clientele - combined with a lack of proper father figure - has left her with an extremely jaded, distrusting view of men in general. She has yet to be in any kind of romantic relationship. She tends to dress fairly "boy-ish" to prevent attention of that nature from being drawn to herself, and her raspy voice and blunt attitude further help ward off undesirables.

Manabu is the closest Jayne has to a father figure, but their relationship has generally been devoid of expressions of affection or emotion. Theirs is more of a student/pupil relationship, lacking in many of the finer-tuned intimacies that can sometimes develop. Jayne only seems to be consistently emotional toward Smudge, due in part to the concept that as an animal, he's incapable of betraying her trust.

She always wears a yellow band of cloth with black, oil-stained stripes on her upper right arm. Those around her speculate it ties into her nickname - Killerbee - but no one seems to know the story behind it, or the name.

GENERAL-
Name: SgtMaj Sergiusz (ret).
Nickname:
Age: 50
Gender: Male
Nationality: Earth Kingdom
Bending/Fighting Style: Sergiusz's fighting style is one that was honed over thirty years combat. It’s not nice or flashy, only brutal and pragmatic. It’s designed to close with your enemy and destroy them. And if putting your enemy down means stabbing them in the back, throwing dirt in their face, gouging out their eyes, crushing their throat, or repeated punches to the groin and ovaries; then by crom that’s what you do.

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE-
Eyes-
Eye Color: Green
Other Eye Traits: He lost his left eye in an explosion and what's left of the socket is covered with a simple eye patch.

Hair-
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Hairstyle: He keeps his hair cut short and maintains a well trimmed mustache and goatee
Other Hair Features: His dark brown hair stands in stark contrast to his snow white sideburns and the white peppered liberally throughout his facial hair.

Body-
Height: about 6’
Weight: 200 lbs
Build/Frame: He is fit and athletic and does what he can to maintain his strength, despite this it’s obvious his body is slowing down and isn’t as fit as it once was.
Skin Tone:
Distinguishing Marks (Scars, birthmarks, freckles, etc.): In addition to his missing eye Sergiusz is missing not only the smallest finger on his left hand, but also the third knuckle up of the finger next to it as well half of the middle finger on his right hand. He also has a tattoo on his right shoulder. The tattoo depicts a twin headed eagle superimposed over a sword and shield with the words “Only in Death…” written below. This tattoo will mean little to the casual observer unless they are from the far northern city of Cadia or the surrounding region or they are familiar with the area. If so then they would recognize this as the crest of the Kasrkin, the elite Special Ops of Cadia.

Other-
Most Dominant Feature:
Physical Disabilities:
Distinguishable Clothing/Accessory: This great coat Which upon close inspection reveals to have once borne a number of insignia. It appears well maintained but is obviously older then a lot of people.

HABITS-
Drugs:
Smoking: He smoked in his early years but eventually moved to chewing tobacco, he eventually quite that after his fortieth birthday.
Drinking: While he strives to never get drunk he unashamedly enjoys Vodka and a few other alcoholic beverages.
Other Bad Habits: As he’s gotten older he’s gotten into the habit of saying whatever popped into his head no matter how improper.
Quirks:

BACKGROUND-
Birthplace: The city state of Cadia
Education: He had a basic education growing up, about the equivalent of a secondary education.
Training: He’s gone through basic training, as well as advanced infantry training which included spear and shield techniques as well as the fundamentals of other basic and readily available weapons. He also received survival training, field demolitions training and then later on basic field medicine and advanced explosive ordinance handling-use-and-creation training.
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5nUUD8S ... re=related

FAMILY-
Anything worth Mentioning: His bitch of an ex-wife took their daughter, stole his lizard-dog and moved here after she up and abandoned him; with any luck she’s now an ex-person. His daughter would be about twenty two and all he knows is that she’s somewhere in the city.
OCCUPATION/SKILLS-
Job: During his rise to the rank of Sergeant Major the number of occupations he’s had within the Cadian military include a tour as a drill sergeant in explosive ordinance training as well as an instructor in advanced hand-to-hand and knife fighting techniques.
Time Spent Having Job:
Skills Learned/Learning: pretty sure I’ve already gone over that a few times.

HISTORY-
Write AT LEAST one paragraph (7-10 sentences) describing your characters history: Sergiusz was born in the far northern city state of Cadia. Cadia is one of four cities that vie for dominance of the mountainous area. The borders of these cities are in constant flux as they fight each other over villages, farm land, river crossings, cross roads, mountain passes, and just about anything else they can think of. These clashes go so far back no one can remember a time when the cities were not at each other’s throats. The only significant breaks in their fighting occurred when the Fire Nation was on their collective door steps and during the time of Chin the Conqueror.
Born in a lower-middle class family Sergiusz enlisted in the Cadian army at seventeen and stayed there for the next thirty three years. Years later he would eventually be accepted into the elite Kasrkin company, famed in the region for their daring and effective night time raids. A few years ago he received his promotion to Sergeant Major and placed in the SgtMaj billet for the Cadian Explosive Ordinance Training grounds; a position traditional held by a Kasrkin. He was officially discharged for medical reason several months ago but unofficially it for his many vocal disagreements over the direction the governing council was taking and his refusal to ‘shut up and do his job’. His decision to make his way to Republic city, one a number of his old war buddies made year before when they retired, can be summed up in phrase “Why they hell not? There’s nothing holding me here anymore.”

Picture of Huo-Family crest


OCCUPATION/SKILLS-
Job: President of Family Trading Company “The Golden Dragon”.
Time Spent Having Job: 8 years (since age 25).
Skills Learned: Mechanics, crafting weapons, calligraphy, drawing/painting, teaching.

HISTORY-
Kensei was born in the Fire Nation Capital as the six child (out of twelve), and the second oldest son, of the Huo family. His family has been part of the upper class/nobility for many generations and are therefore held in high esteem within their circles.

From the start of Sozin’s war until the events leading up to the building of Republic City’ his ancestors had been high military ranking officials. But since the dismantlement of the colonies and the building of Republic City they stepped out of the military and moved back to the Fire Nation capital.

According to family custom Kensei began learning and training while other toddlers were still playing around in the dirt. When the time was right he and his siblings were sent to the best schools of the Fire Nation. Schools that were only attended by the children of the upper class families due to their high tuition costs.

Throughout the years Kensei found a love for telling stories and teaching. And in time he attracted many people. From the rich to the poor, and from the intellectuals to the simpletons. All were attracted by his friendly, well behaved and honorable character. Once he spoke to people all barriers seemed to fall away just for the duration of him speaking. The way he spoke. The way he was able to tell meaningful stories and the way he taught. People; young and old just kept flocking towards him.

A fact which didn’t go unnoticed by the Fire Sages who wanted him to study with them in the Fire Temple. But Kensei’s father didn’t allow it. Even though their family had left the military in the time of Kensei’s grandfather (who was the last high ranking official of their family), they were still training and educating their children in the art of war, the way of firebending and the way of the sword. For, these were skills that are never to be forgotten.

Kensei married his wife Lin-Ai at age 22. As customary, it was an arranged marriage with the daughter of another highly esteemed Fire Nation noble family whose lineage could be traced back to a mutual ancestor during the rule of Firelord Sozin’s father.

Two years later, at age 25 his elderly father asked him and his older brother, Qin, to take over their family company. Qin became the CEO while he became the president. Ever since he has been traveling a lot. Making lots of friends and acquaintances – in high and sometimes low places - all over the world.

Today he has a lovely family of a loving wife and four beautiful children he loves so much.


OTHER-
-’The Golden Dragon’ is an old family trading company that exists for nearly three centuries. Kensei became the president because he is the second oldest son.

- As a child the current Firelord was abducted by insurgents. He was saved by the Huo's under leadership of Hikei, Kensei's father. All insurgents were slain and the fire prince brought back home. The late Firelord wanted to reward the Huo's greatly. They refused and claimed they just did their duty to their nation and firelord.

- In Fire Nation history the Huo family is famed (or notorious) for their strictness, education, sense of honor (especially the protection thereof) and patriotism. They are known to have their own small standing armies which they call their ‘guard’; yet no one doubts the family’s loyalty to the Throne.

It is known that the Huo’s don’t back down for anything. Even if it would mean they would have to disown their own family members if they let down on their family’s honor. For, it wouldn’t be the first time they would do such a thing (even though the last time was centuries ago). “Better dying in honor than living with shame” was definitely not unheard of in this particular family.


A bit of info on Fire Nation nobility (stolen from Pleh's classes thread):
Spoiler: show
Fire Nation nobility is very tight knit and places heavy expectations on nobles to treat each other with honor. Being accepted into their nobility rather than to be born into it is very rare and basically unheard of. Fire Nation Nobility is highly competitive, purifying its ranks by culling out the weak and making room for the strong to take power. It's a vicious system, but family is still a strong bond (at least it is considered to be; it is shameful to not consider honoring your family to be of the utmost priority, which is part of why disowning a family member for making a critical error is not unheard of, but is one of the most dreaded punishments one can receive, as it makes you no longer noble).

HISTORY-
Hanuq was born in the Northern watertribe, but his family moved to Republic city where his father thought he would be able to take better care of his family, at the age of 4. Although he enjoyed learning, he never really scored higher than average, mostly because he was bored. After school he was usually found outside, getting in all sorts of trouble for everything could think off. Whenever someone would confront him with his actions, or even punished him, he would shrug it off and continue, looking for a new challenge to evade getting caught.

When he was 18, he finished his education and decided to set off into the open. He travels around, doing jobs here and there, but never stays around in the same village for too long. A

While traveling, he started to grown an interest in pole-arm weapons, and has subsequently 'borrowed' a spear from an old man he came across when he was 20. He has trained himself in the use of it, focusing his training mostly on fast attacks; moving forward, attacking and retreating.

Although he used to be 'good' (not stealing, being nice to people etc.) he took an arrow to the knee when he was caught running out of the small village where he stole the man's spear.

Height: 5ft 10in
Weight: 160lb

Skin Tone: Tan, think Sokka skin tone
Distinguishing Marks (Scars, birthmarks, freckles, etc.):

Most Dominant Feature: He's got an infectious laugh

Drugs: none
Smoking: none
Drinking: He certainly likes his drink
Other Bad Habits: He's a bit of a manipulator
Quirks: Doesn't like to shake hands.

Birthplace: Northern Water tribe
Education: He only really ever did well in classes that covered history or group dynamics
Training: spent a decade training under a waterbending master
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: A rather balanced outlook somewhat tempered by a deep and abiding respect for the moon and ocean spirits

Family: A father Jakar and a mother Suni *both in their mid fifties* and a younger sister Sani *21*



Job: He's a bit of a roaming..."operator" he uses his manipulative skills to get what he wants and to occasionally help people, he fights when it's unavoidable part of the semi-famous/infamous "Crazy Squad"
Time Spent Having Job: seven years
Skills Learned/Learning: Persuasion, manipulation, proper sword technique, and he practices his water bending


HISTORY-

Makai has always been something of a schemer...ever since he was a child he's been good at two things, waterbending and manipulating people. He spent the majority of his childhood and teen years training under one of the great masters of waterbeding, being regarded as "decent" at it. When he hit 20 he decided to go out into the world and make his mark (and his fortune). and in the intervening seven years he has manipulated, lied, and fought his way across large parts of the world. Currently he is running with a group he semi-affectionately calls "The Crazy Squad" a group of three that has gained something approaching fame (more likely infamy) for doing "good" deeds (All accidentally of course, it turns out that scheming your way into the corrupt govenor's vault and making off with a lot of her ill gotten gains is seen as a good thing.) After a scrape with some of the local authorities the group has scattered; their contingency plan is for them to all meet up in Republic city. After all what could possibly go wrong?...

He should have known better...

(The other two members of his team Taka and Mai will be fleshed out in-game)



OTHER- Makai looking for his friends will be the big initial motivation for him.

I think I'll go withThis as my color.

GENERAL-
Name: Halyna Itan
Nickname: ---
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Nationality: Sandbending tribe
Bending/Fighting Style: Firebending

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE-
Eyes-
Eye Color: Light Green
Other Eye Traits: ---

Hair-
Hair Color: Dark brown
Hairstyle: She has long hair, normally worn in braids. While she often uses a loose braid down her back, it is not uncommon to find her with something more resembling cornrows or a braided crown
Other Hair Features: ---

Body-
Height: 5'6''
Weight: 134 lbs
Build/Frame: Slender frame
Skin Tone: Very tanned. She has a yellower undertone than the rest of her tribe, as her skin is the only aspect of her fire nation heritage she physically adopted. However, because of her exposure to the sun, she is indistinguishable from her peers.
Distinguishing Marks (Scars, birthmarks, freckles, etc.): She has two long scars down her palms, from the pad of her index finger to the base above her outer wrist. She also has two "dimpled" scars on her chest - halfway between her breasts and collarbones. Halyna is tanned, although she has some freckles on her shoulders and elbows. She has scars from burn marks on her wrists and forearms.

Other-
Most Dominant Feature: Scars
Physical Disabilities:
Distinguishable Clothing/Accessory: While in the tribe, Halyna wears the traditional garb of the tribe - thin white base clothing with sand-colored loose robes. Because of their interaction with the avatar, her tribe had adopted darker green accenting to their clothing, so she consistently wears a dark green sash. Her hands, unlike those of her fellow tribespeople, are uncovered. While in the city, Halyna wears a layered skirt, sandy white and green, and a loose top with sleeves that stop at her elbows. She wears a diagonal green sash and has adopted a hat, although she wears it infrequently. She has a few different weapons on hand, all glass.

HABITS-
Drugs: Cactus juice, although due to prolonged use, she has built up a tolerance.
Smoking: ---
Drinking: ---
Other Bad Habits:
Quirks: Obsessed with stained glass; dislikes the smell of smoke; has a tendency towards nonviolence, although she is (often literally) explosive when her heritage is mentioned.

BACKGROUND-
Birthplace: Sand Tribe - nomadic, so the exact location is unknown.
Education: No formal education
Training: Self-taught in glassblowing/creating and shaping glass
Spiritual Views/Tendencies: Believes in the spirit world; Homok, the "spirit of the desert," as the dominant being; Neutral Neutral Alignment

FAMILY-
Anything Worth Mentioning: She is a basterd child, with one older half-brother and two younger half-sisters (twins). Her father, a firebender, is unknown.

OCCUPATION/SKILLS-
Job: N/A
Time Spent Having Job: N/A
Skills Learned/Learning: Glassblowing, creating strong glass weapons; farming in the desert, hand-to-hand fighting.
Her firebending is relatively limited. She can consistently create an intense flame from her hand or fingertips. However, she is unable to aim projectile flames.

HISTORY-
Write AT LEAST one paragraph (7-10 sentences) describing your characters history: Her birth was unconventional at best. The sand tribes, try as they might to adhere to their tradition, did not take kindly to the pale-skinned girl, a reminder of their alienation. However, she was accepted by her siblings and peers, until when she was about three, and fires mysteriously appeared around her. They were small, often burning themselves out, but they were taken as a bad omen. After playing with a friend, and mentioning her newfound ability, she was taken to the tribe chief. It was advised that they block the chi flow to her hands, from which the firebenders drew the majority of their power, so they split her hands open. She was given a traditional sign of protection - two scars over her chest - so those who had attempted to change her chi flow did not seem callous. Both her voice and the fires died down over the next few years.
During a brief tribal war, Halyna rediscovered her ability to bend fire, and found that the sand that touched the flame was scorched, often brittle. Over the next years, she spent time training herself to produce a strong flame, and would apply it to the sand, bending it to her will. In this, she gained prestige through her tribe, although she left to discover her father's whereabouts after a fight with her older brother.

OTHER-
Other Things Worth Mentioning: She is naive and easily influenced. It is easy for her to hide her bending, as she is even-tempered and relies primarily on the use of her crude glass knives.

HISTORY
Keraka was born into a middle class, Southern Water Tribe family, and always had a love for bending and tinkering with machinery, like her father. Life was good for the family until her father’s death when Keraka was 10. The night of the accident, an airship that carried both passengers and cargo/supplies from the Earth Kingdom, suddenly broke in two, and exploded as fuel was being transferred into the behemoth for the return trip the following morning. Although, mostly everyone was off the airship at the time, it was mainly ground crew that were either killed or severely injured, Keraka’s father was included. Keraka and her brother happened to be in the area at the time, participating in a snowball fight with other children... however, with Keraka being closer to the airship than her brother, she was hit by flying debris (once in the head, and once in the right leg), resulting in her scars, and the partial blindness of her left eye.

Her father was not immediately killed in the blast, but died from his injures two days afterward in the hospital. Before dying, he gave Keraka his blue bandana as something to remember him by, and then passed on with her hand still in his. Afterward, the family became a mess... Keraka dropped out of school as her family prepared to move. A few weeks later, the family moved from the Southern Water Tribe’s main city to Republic City to begin life anew, and hopefully forget about the incident. However, Keraka is still haunted by the accident to this day, and will never forget the day her life was changed forever.

OTHER
Other Things Worth Mentioning:
She has an unknown side to her personality and partially her past that very few know about. (Not in reference to her father's death)

He learned Earth bending from a young age thanks to his father, who wanted to have his boy be well rounded and succeed in life. As Kang-Dae got older, he was seeing that he was being suffocated under the love of his parents and wanted to do things his friends were doing, like sports, discovering things through the local woods, towns, etc. He had many friends from school that he was aquainted with, and he began to be a partier through his teenage years and would get drunk every other weekend, and would get into fights. His father later became a tougher part in his life and became stricter and when Kang-Dae got out of line, he would give him a wooping. Once Kang-Dae turned 16 he left for the University of Ba Sing Se, and was glad to leave from under his parents roof. He has became a local party animal. Now he is going to take off some time to explore his horizon through the nations.

His wife Yuria, is now dead. Li Senkyo has 3 living children and 7 living grandchildren. None of his kids are deceased but his kids have not aged as well as he has.

Raiga, the only one of importance to Li Senkyo's immediate story is an accountant that works that helps with Li Senkyo's restaurant that he opened in Republic City. Raiga is married and father to two sons and a daughter.
He is in his low 70s and he is also a grandfather. His son, Yuda is in his mid 40s and works in a management position in Li Senkyo's restaurant. Raiga is a firebender, but hides it, and Yuda is an Earth Bender.

History:
Li Senkyo was an old soldier of the Firenation Army during the 100 year war that happened during the reign of the previous Avatar. At that time, Li Senkyo was a lower mid rank soldier sent to battle the Northern Watertribe and the later to the Earth Kingdom. He was one of few soldiers given the opportunities to do battle with the Avatar, not once, but several times. His skills in his youth were average, and his battles with the Avatar were swift as his defeat, but he will never forget the boy and his hand glider.

After the war, he settles with the Firenation Colonies in the Earth Kingdom and made a home. Li Senkyo was already married before the end of the war. Before he moved back, his family joined him in the colonies, the land of opportunity (oh yeah, I went there). He originally was one of rebellion. Le Senkyo was loyal to his nation and its conquest. He was not a violent person at heart, but he was sucked in by the propaganda of war and took part in the rebellion before the Firelord and the Avatar established the United Republic.

It was at that time that his education gave him great insight. He went to more schooling learned more and attempted to revisit his old teachings about the Firenation in a different light. He viewed the dream of Sozin as spreading the prosperity of the Firenation, instead of the conquest he had done. He realized that despite the evil caused by the war, the world now has advanced at such a rabid pace. Sozin... was right and his dream was realized. Li Senkyo an old Firenation zealot during his new education hated Firenation for the war learned a new appreciation for it. During this time, he honed his skills, but attempted to find other and greater uses for his firebending other than battle. He wished to learn to make and produce energy with his power, use it to cook fine foods, and use his control over fires to put out fires in the cities.

After he was already an older individual, he decided to make peace with himself, his nation, and those around him and decided the best thing he could do was make people happy. His life taught him he had lots of stories to tell and enjoyed good cooking. He made a restaurant themed on ancient firenation during the time of the war. He attempted to keep as much of the culture as he could without reminding people of the war and hired a staff of cooks to help him in the kitchen. Here he commonly stays to give people a warm welcome and a hot meal. From time to time, he learns what he can from the most spiritual elders left in the Earth Kingdom.

OTHER:
He is a wise cracking old man with badass that comes out when necessary. He made sure to know those of age and wisdom during his later years. Who he really got into contact with, I will leave up to you, but I am not against any nifty surprises.
One miserable little secret, Ah.
Two miserable little secrets, Ah Ah.
A miserable little pile of secrets, Ah Ah Ah.
