extra information.

You can use whatever format or code you want for your character sheet so long as it has the required information present. Quality over everything else, I want to see deep and interesting characters who have motivations, dreams, desires, not just slabs of meat to throw at enemies if you know what I mean. If you have a concept you aren't sure about, message me here on RPN or reach out to me on the Discord, I'm always open to discussion.

Rules copied from the interest check

• You are allowed to apply for more than one character, as long as you can handle them.
• Your main-cast character is going to be somebody who has been invited by the leaders of the nations to partake in an expedition onto the Uncharted continent in order to explore it and attempt to find the Avatar. They honestly should be at least a little overpowered so I encourage you to have fun making them, all I ask is that you make them make sense.
• Sub-bending styles are allowed so long as it makes sense for your character to have them. An example might be that you are playing a character that has mastered Earthbending and has now started to learn metalbending or lavabending. A novice would not know how to handle these styles.
• Characters should be 18+, I may be willing to make exceptions to this rule for side characters, however your main plotline character should be an adult. If you are thinking of applying for a side character who is younger than 18, DM me either here or on Discord (once it's posted) and we will discuss the particulars.
• Your character can only belong to one main bending style, there shouldn't be any characters who know both airbending and firebending, or earthbending and waterbending, etc.
• Combat is going to be inevitable in a roleplay such as this, and there are two ways it can be worked out if it is between characters: the first is amongst yourselves, talk between yourselves to determine who would win a fight, and if you cannot come to a conclusion we roll dice or flip coins. Combat against the world/environment I will almost always let you decide for yourself unless I have a specific plan, which I will make apparent in OOC or through DMs.

[ThatGuyWithSouvlaki]

Fumiko Sato
​

Basics
Age: 28

Gender: Female

Personality

Brilliant and eccentric, Fumiko is a seemingly always a big ball of positive energy which never seems to run out therefore really seen just sitting down and relaxing. Her mind is always working with one idea after another, never staying on a thing for long, leaving behind many ongoing projects in search for the new idea. She works hard though and plays hard, looking for the next fun and pleasurable thing as quick as she searches her next project. Though generally bubbly and fun, she has some antisocial treats that can be off-putting to other, she has a high opinion of herself and cocky that might make it come off as arrogant, her pleasure seeking making her appear selfish, and she often uses her intelligence to manipulate others. Despite all that, she has a good heart beneath the blaster, she was raised to do the right thing and values the few friends who put up with her very much. She knows the importance of the next task ahead of her and dead set of completing.

Likes: Motorbikes, planes, singing, tinkering, spicy food, puzzles, excitement, exploring
Dislikes: most animals, interruption when being creative, sitting still, quiet times.

Biography

Fumiko was born in Republic City as a result of a one-night stand between a local woman from the Fire Nation family and a visiting Earth Kingdom businessman. Her father left the United republic unaware of his child, leaving Fumiko's mother to raise the child on her own. An act made more difficult due to the deeply traditional family her mother was from, Fumiko grandparents disowned both mother and child, forcing the pair to live in poverty. Fumiko's mother had little love for her child, often neglecting it and even attempting to abandon it several times, with only the help of some kind neighbours able to persuade her to take Fumiko back. This went on for three years of Fumiko's life before she was finally left at a local orphanage, never to see her mother again.

The orphanage was small and underfunded, but they cared for Fumiko as best as they could, finally showing the young toddler the care she had not shown her mother. She lived at the orphanage for the next few years, where she started to receive an education and was eventually found to be a bright child with a keen interest in anything mechanical, any toy she was given when broke apart and built back together, and she admired the occasional satomobile or bike that passed by the charity. She was also found to be a non-bender, something that caused her to be picked on by other orphans. She initially took the abuse before finally striking out in anger, getting her into trouble. Both events meant she had had very few friends growing up, but she seemed to not mind so much, seemingly taking solace in being by herself and doing things on her own.

A brewing triad turf war in the area caused considerable upending of Fumiko life in the orphanage. The constant fighting between the two triad groups had caused damage to the orphanage, and more than one of the orphans became involved in the gangs. Even Fumiko was drawn into the life, attracted by the vehicles the triads were driving. She attempted to have a closer look at one of the cars when she fell foul of its triad owner. An altercation occurred between her and the triad, but Fumiko could do little against the older and stronger man. He was about to show no mercy to the young girl if it were not for a blast of fire knocking the triad back, the source being a dark-skinned woman in water tribe garb. After the Water Tribe women defeated the tried, she turned to the young Fumiko, who was in awe of her. Korra helped the orphan back to the orphanage, and the pair chatted a little before she left. It was later that evening that Fumiko realised the water tribe woman was Avatar Korra herself.

After the turf war ended, Asami took an interest in the orphanage, becoming one of its patrons and funding the care of the children. Asami would visit often to check on her investment and to encourage the children for the next few years. Fumiko always looked forward to her visits, wanting to learn from her but also to see the very latest Satomobile Asami would drive. While Asami spoke with staff, Fumiko would sneak out to take a closer look at the car. Often, it was just a cursory look, as she was unable to access the inside. More than once, Asami caught her looking and noting the instance she had. One year, Asami came over with a new convertible. Fumiko could not resist opening the hood, taking a closer look at it, and taking it apart to see how it worked. She pulled one piece... Than the other... When Asami finally caught her, she had dismantled half the engine. Fumiko quickly began to reassemble it until Asami stopped her. Seeing Fumiko’s talent, she decided to take Fumiko as her apprentice.
Fumiko was overjoyed and gained the best of her education, focusing on her interest in engineering and invention. In addition, through Asami, she was introduced to the rest of the team avatar and their families, and through them, she found a new home and a chosen family. Something she had not truly had since her birth.

She was eventually given a role in Sato Industries R&D, a role she took on with great zeal, designing a new line of bikes when she was barely out of her teens. Her obsession for work did cause some concern, though, as she showed signs of recklessness. Fumiko ignored the concern, leading her to misstep and cause an explosion that caused her to use her left arm. The accident gave her pause for thought, but it did little to dampen her creativity. She took the loss of her arm as just another challenge she could invent to eventually produce her current arm.

Her connection to prominent individuals in Republic City piqued the interest of the media, which followed her keenly. Entering her adult years, Fumiko developed the image of the excentric playgirl and inventor; if she wasn’t in the lab inventing, she was out of parties of the rich and famous, which gained her some celebrity. Though this image endeared some to her, others criticized her for not taking her position seriously and not using it for the greater good. Fumiko did not care, though, as she was in something that would hopefully change the world for the better.

Likes & Dislikes

+ water lilies + sweets + spicy foods

p

ersonality and more.

Mina is known to be

quiet and reserved,

only speaking when spoken to.. Quietly listening and observing in the background of a crowded room. Once she feels comfortable with her peers, Mina can come out to be rather

sweet with a certain sense of humor.

Mina has a

deep sense of loyalty

to those she considers close to, putting her friends and family’s lives over hers even if they don’t deserve it. Her need to protect those she loves gives Mina inspiration to work harder for her dream to become a better healer. With this sense of loyalty and devotion, however, she can come off as overprotective and overbearing.. Sometimes naive, causing her be taken advantage of.
---
Due to an incident as an apprentice healer working in the fire nation, Mina had gained an irrational fear of fire. She had received a scar which she hides on the right side of her face across her eye. She holds no grudge against fire benders, but because of her trauma, she is wary of healing and/or working with fire benders as they use their abilities.

h

istory & Bending Mastery.

Mina grew up in a loving family living in the Southern Water Tribe. Considered blessed by her family for the gift bestowed by the moon goddess of silver, snowy white hair. She was treasured by her family as an only child, due to her mother being told she was never to have children to begin with. Mina was sheltered due to being born with a weak body at birth. Because of this, her father never prioritized her need to learn offensive bending that her tribe had been so commonly known for, instead, she was placed with her mother in the healing huts to learn how to become a midwife and healer for their tribe.. Growing up under the mentorship of other women and men learning to become a healer, Mina had found her niche and had begun studying on her own. Once she had grown healthier and gained more individual freedom, Mina devoted her time in the library and healing huts, practicing to better her skill– wanting to become useful to her father as well as the rest of her tribe despite her lack of knowledge of aggressive water bending. Once Mina had come of age, and was old enough to travel with her mother to the other four nations, Mina began to expand her knowledge on how to treat different wounds due to different circumstances resulting in her need to thrive, hungering for new opportunities to explore and learn about the world around her to prove to her family that she was more useful out in the real world..
------
Mina has grown to be an exceptional healer during her time training and learning under the mentoring of her mother in the southern water tribe and values herself as an asset to combat as a medic. Her focus with her bending is strictly defensive, with her top priority being that of the injured and getting them out of combat so that their wounds can be treated as quickly and effectively as possible. Her offensive skills are average at best however, she will hold her own and buy time for her team if and when absolutely necessary.

bending type

earth, sub lava

Junko is considered a master earthbender ever since she was 16, quite the young prodigy at that time. Though, as the daughter of two probenders, who were each masters of their element, it was to be expected of her. While she's known to be able to lavabend since her early teen years, she mastered it just shy of reaching 20, after two whole years of focusing on learning the ability at a remote volcanic island. She's no where near mastering metalbending, only a "skilled beginner" as she would call herself; just competent enough to call herself a practicing metalbender, as someone with her reputation. Her bending style is a mix between traditional earthbending and some martial-arts inspired probending moves.

Her special skills include tracking (as in following in another's trails), seismic sense, and she's got quite the knowledge of plants (e.g which are edible, which are poisonous), as botany is one of her more prominent hobbies. If you could count alert as a skill; she's perceptive, and seem to get a sixth sense on danger, a feeling on when or where it will happen, so she can make sure to be there for it.

appearance

art credit

ARTTAiR

Junko cares greatly about how she appears to the world; she feels like there's always eyes on her, the weight of the social pressure, as the president's son's wife and daughter of two retired multi-champion probender. She dresses neat and feminine, leaning towards the more formal look, with the preference of a certain style of suits that's it's almost trademarked to her at this point. (example1, example2, example3) Being an earthbender, she follows the tradition of primarily wearing earth-tones, though sometimes she can be seen in red, too, showing homage to her firebending mother, or greys or black, honoring her nonbender husband's family.

Standing only a bit taller than the average height, she boosts it a little more by wearing kitten heels. Though if not for appearance's sake, she'd much prefer going barefoot everywhere. She's quite fair-skinned, showing her fire heritage, with clear green eyes of an earth blooded descent. She keeps her medium length slightly wavy black hair (that's already starting to grow greys) in a low bun or pony most of the times. As for accessories, she likes to keep it simple, with just either a necklace, a pair of earrings, a gold or jade bangle, or none at all.

While teaching and/or bending, she wears more old-schooled & traditional earth kingdom clothing. Baggy pants and barefoot, way more practical, how she actually prefers to dress. During the expedition, she'd be dressed this way, too.

Her facial features are already sharp genetic-wise, and made even more so by her natural/resting frowning face. Her angular brows almost in constant furrowed state, her face only relaxing near kids, her own or otherwise. In social situations, especially with important people around, as the ones she's in tend to be, her expression is less angry/stressed and more plastered polite smile.

psyche

Jun is perceptive, her senses wired to always be alert and ready for danger. She's always got a strong sense of justice, and makes sure to act on it, sometimes making her reckless and self-sacrificing, prioritizing others or the general population above her, especially her son, which she can get over protective of, and would do anything for. She knows she'll need to learn to let him experience the world and make decisions of his own, but for now he's still (quite literally) her little baby. Ever since having her own child, she's became more maternal, causing her to show more grace and becomes increasingly more lecturey. She can be quite bossy at times, unintentionally becoming very "mother knows best". Most of the times it's brought up by the panic of wanting to control a situation before it gets worse. But when she's in trouble of her own making, she gets defensive and refuses help, very untrusting of the helping hand offered, rightfully so.

She's impatiently patient, meaning she'd let things run their course, but if she could help them move along faster, she would. She rarely shows her restlessness, but would pace and fidget subconsciously. She was very hotheaded in her teen years, but she likes to think she's grown enough as a person to be able to control her anger now. She really is generally a cool, calm and collected person now, just don't anger, annoy, or bother her too much.

One thing that hasn't change at all through her years is her stubbornness. She'd always fight her way through, resilient and headstrong, unyielding; her anarchist side shining through. Oh, and also, her sharp tongue, though it rarely sees the light of day the past few years, as she's learned to bite them.

Junko knows most people, especially in her current social circles, only tolerate her for her status, and her pretty face. How powerful she is helps, sure, but it's rarely known or mentioned now. She hates to, but she could act civil, make small talk, pretends to care when she needs to. Living years amongst those from a higher class has unknowingly made her have a certain aura of arrogance, albeit suitably (not for her status but for her hard earned skills).

history

Junko was a rebel prodigy, turned politician's wife. As a kid, she's always been rowdy, was prone to getting into (or starting, really) fights. Being a kid of two probenders will do that to you. Her parents encouraged and supported her in every way. This did make her a bit spoiled for quite some time, but she grew out of it. She was loud and very vocal about a new thing she finds interesting every other week, until one sticks with her. As her training progresses, so does her activism, for just about anything, as the world was quite fucked up. Before a problem is solved, another one seems to rise up. So, she decided to dedicate using her bending for good.

She was always quite the powerful kid. Discovering earthbending at the three years old, to the (short lived) disappointment of her firebender mother, her father wasted no time in starting her training. With their connections, she managed to study under the best earthbending master there was. Though he almost dropped her as she did not seem to be able to focus for a while, she eventually became a master herself, at just 16 years old. Then was when she started to focus on her "afterschool activity", vigilantism. She's been doing that ever since she reached teenage years and gained more freedom of her free time. Her earthbending teacher knew of it, but he did not forbid her to do so (not that he'd succeed), nor did he encourage it. Republic City's law enforcements were good, of course, but they mostly focus on the high profile cases, leaving its general citizens, especially those less fortunate, to fend for themselves. Until Junko decided to pick up their slack.

Until she got caught. Her parents were surprised, but not really, still, they managed to pull some strings so she was let off by just a warning, and the promise of jail time if she were to continue. The mere slap on the wrist was more like a slap to the face to her, who realized her parents are just like the people she's been protecting others from, those who could get away with anything if they wanted to. So, to distance from them, she left Republic City.

After having no steady roof over her head for a few months, she finally settled on a pretty remote island, which happened to be volcanic. There, she decided to stay for a couple years, to master lavabending by herself. Stubborn as she is, she eventually became confident enough in her skills to bestow the title lavabending master to herself. The deciding factor, though, was when she managed to help the locals by stopping the volcano from destroying their village. That also made her miss helping the general public, hiding behind a mask or not, so she decided to go back to her hometown.

She wasted no time in getting back to business. The then 20 years old promised herself she'd be more careful and only does her vigilante shit at night to lessen the risk of getting caught. Reluctant to go back to her house and her parents, she decided to live by herself, tutoring novice earthbenders to earn money.

Things went smoothly for a few years, and she's grown quite a reputation for herself, then known as Master Earthbender Jun. She didn't use her full name, in hopes of shedding her history altogether, but alas, her parents found her eventually, and she was forced to return home. Now retired, they decided to build her a full blown bending school. So she started officially teaching there.

...And she hated it. Her students there were mostly the children of the people she was trying so hard to avoid, she left the city. Which would've been fine, if they were truly interested in mastering earthbending for the good of it. But they just want power, prestige. She tried to get some scholarship students in, but they were protested away by the other students' and their parents. So she taught half-heartedly, and her presence at the school with her name on it became rarer and rarer, for she'd rather busied herself with her heart's true calling..... until she got caught again. And this time, they slapped her wrists with a pair of handcuffs, and put her behind bars.

Not even a week of being detained, she was freed, though this time, not fully, as she's given a different kind of life sentence. The one that comes with a ring on her finger.

Somehow, her parents managed to know enough people to know the president himself, and struck a personal deal. Truly an amazing feat for mere retired probenders, though she was not surprised, as she now sees them as who they are, successful social climbers. The exchange of her record for her hand in marriage was made.

Junko's life changed drastically, and she adjusted, or more precisely, was made to adjust. With way more eyes than she's used to on her now, it was hard for her to leave without them knowing, let alone doing as her heart desires. So it stopped for a while. Impatient in nature, she grew restless, but she prevailed, putting a different mask this time, becoming the picture perfect politician's wife. Not that his husband's an active politician. He was a good enough person, even though she doesn't even see him often, only a few times a week. Who knows what he's up to, but she quickly assumed that him being that seclusive, it couldn't be anything good. His social status didn't exactly help her view of him. Still, she didn't resent him personally, so they were civil enough, when they do meet.

A couple years passed, and her restlessness grew more with each passing day, threatening to boil over. So she decided to do something about it. It took her long enough, but she continued once again, doing the thing that got her caught twice, and trapped in the loveless marriage she's in. This time, she doesn't care anymore if she's caught.

It felt as if as soon as the clock striked midnight on her 25th birthday, both her in laws and parents demanded a child of her. "It's been long enough," they said. Has it really? And they didn't even ask if she wanted one. She gave them a stern refusal, but they gave her an even stronger rebuttal. She'd be free to do as she pleases, albeit on the down low, so long as she gives them a grandchild. So she did.

She expected to hate her child. Throughout the pregnancy, she sure did. It gave her nothing more than sickness, bloating, and soreness all over, after all. And that wasn't even the unsavory parts. To her surprise, her husband stepped up, coming out of his shell more often, always ready to help his pregnant wife. And then her son was born. And she couldn't abandon him, to "do as she pleases". So she became a devoted mother.

After a year, her little warrior was big enough and she's fully recovered back to her normal self, she took them on their word and continued on her vigilantism. Again and to no one's surprise, they didn't like that, and once again try to shackle her down, by signing her up for this expedition, saying it's "perfect for her", and it's "basically what she wants anyway". She has heard of this supposed expedition before, but was reluctant to sign herself up, not knowing how long it'd take, and what it'll cost her. Not now that she has a child to think of. But now, with her teeth gritted, she has no choice but to go.

misc.

- The Ozawa Bending School is still a thing, the teachers are now just Jun's dad and mom, and no less famous than when she's there. Even more now, maybe.

- Jun's mom, Keiko Ozawa, is 61, a waterbending master, retired probender. She mastered waterbending after she retired. Jun's dad, Boma Ozawa, 67, retired probender, was the equivalent of a trust fund kid in Republic City. They're both alive. Junko doesn't have siblings.

- Her vigilante costume. But barefoot or just wearing something like yoga socks instead of soled shoes. And a mask that covers most of her face.

- She still teaches earthbending, just taking one protégé at a time, to those she deems deserving. Ones that are at least as much the anarchist as she is.

- Her marriage is not totally loveless. At the very least, there's respect, either one way or mutual. They both are great parents though.

- Her vigilante persona is known as "Onna" (女), literally meaning "lady", as when asked who she is by those she just saved, she used to (cheekily) answered "I'm just a lady"

character status

expedition character

Standing at 5'10" and weighing about 165 lbs, Sun Feng boasts an athletic build. His hair is a medium length black cut into a choppy bob style with blonde underdye, usually worn up and out of his face. His eyes are an earthy yellow-brown that appears bright golden in direct sunlight.

He prefers to wear loose fitting, comfortable clothes that do not impede him in any way. Like most Earthbenders, he also does not wear traditional shoes, but can sometimes be seen wearing foot coverings with no soles. He has a few small ear piercings made from glass.

Personality

Sun Feng is very much a product of his environments, shaped by the hands that raised him, and many they were. He is proud of his upbringing, proud of his skills and boasts often, and to anyone who will listen. Make no mistake, though, there is no emptiness to his boasts and he is the kind of person that will back it up. He's also quite competitive, finding any excuse he can to make a competition of things. Say you can eat more fire flakes? He'll double up, even at the detriment of his stomach and taste buds. He is loyal to and protective of those he lets into his life, clinging to them as though they'd vanish in thin air. To make a friend of Sun Feng is to make a friend for life, no matter your faults or short-comings.

Sun is also highly optimistic, choosing always to see the good in things, even when it may sometimes seem impossible to find those things. That said, he can be somewhat easy to anger, and he often releases his anger in highly physical ways. Never against another person, mind you, unless they punched first, but he can be quite destructive to an environment if he's pissed off. Another thing to know about Sun, and a way to pretty easily get him to do things you want him to, is that he's quite materialistic, reveling in riches and goods. He'll also never turn down a free meal.

Likes: gold, bao buns, jasmine tea, pro-bending

Dislikes: Republic city, orange, bitter foods, flying

Interests:

• Power Disc
• Metalbending crafts and craftsmen
• He's quite interested in Fire Nation culture, and is especially interested in witnessing an Agni Kai.

Tashi is one to talk her way out of a sticky situation: her skills of persuasion and diplomacy are strong and she has a way of using empathy as well as building rapport with others in order to calm them or sway them to her side of the argument. The last thing she wants to do is actually fight, and even then she doesn't go on the offensive but rather she defends herself and others with her bo staff. She realizes that sometimes it has to come to that, try as she might to avoid it, but she still hates it.

She is an explorer at heart, and wants to chronicle her journey through the world to make it into a book one day. Her hopes and dreams include becoming a famous Airbender Explorer who dared to chart the unknown and record it all down for future generations. She has a personal library back home full of World History and Geography books that she loves to read, and she loves to study flora and fauna as well in her spare time.

Aside from reading and studying various forms of life and biology, she loves writing in her journal and presents it in a way where it's like an adventure story, because she wants something to engage the reader once the time comes to write a book about her explorations. But as much as she loves to discover new things, there are quite a few fears she has as well. She is a bit superstitious and has to knock on her wooden staff three times before entering an area she's never been in before. She's also afraid of the dark and cannot sleep without a light present somewhere. She also has a strong fear of dying young but her drive to accomplish her dream keeps her going even when the situation seems a little risky.

History

Tashi was born into a new generation of Airbenders that would take up the mantle and restore the population of the Airbenders after the Harmonic Convergence. She and other female Airbenders went off to be raised and trained in their skills at the Eastern Air Temple, which had not been used since before the 100 years war long ago. From an early age, Tashi was vibrant, curious and wanted to know more about the world around her. Try as she might to leave the temple to discover new things, she was promptly brought back and scolded for it.

It wouldn't be until she turned eighteen when she was able to leave the temple, trained in airbending as well as with a bo staff to strictly defend herself with, for Airbenders were ones who embraced peace above all else. While she did come back home often enough, Tashi went out in search of exploring new places and meeting new people, studying animals and plants along the way and making notes on everything and everyone she encountered. After reading a few books on explorations and expeditions, she decided to write one herself, keeping a journal that details her exploits.

Soko Mizai


Basics
Age: Twenty-eight

Gender: Male

Occupation: Missionary/Representative

Role: Main Expedition Group

Home: Southern Water Tribe

Bending Type: Fire

Bending Mastery: Moderate/Incomplete

Special Skills: Bone carving, leather making, snow sculpting, wood working, metal working.



History


From a young age Soko traveled with his mother from place to place, nation to nation, helping those in need. He and his mother were both part of a missionary outreach group that sought to end hunger and suffering throughout the nations. His father had grown weary of such a life and left them when Soko was only two, having been fed up with the inability to settle down.



By the time of his mother's death Soko had reached the age of eighteen and made the decision to stay in the last place they had gone to help, the Southern Water Tribe. Though it was far from how it use to be, growth is not without its pains. Every nation no matter the size has people who go hungry, or those who are in need of some form of aid.



Soko spent the next ten years in the Southern Water Tribe helping all that he could. Sending petitions to the Capital, beseeching those with power to send supplies or food. He started a small organization and his popularity within the Tribe grew and grew and he was soon a very recognizable face throughout the entire city.



He now runs a medium scale operation within the Southern Water Tribe making sure those who need help gets it, making trips to the Capital in person as a unofficial representative and sharing his ideas with their people in hopes that one day every nation can accomplish what he set out to do.



Personality


Soko has been heavily influenced by the people he has met and the places he has been, most of all by the people of the Southern Water Tribe. He has the fiery passion of a Firebender, but the calm precision of a Waterbender. His forms flow like the waves causing his flames to be smooth and glow a soft blue. He is tenacious when it comes to helping others, and he is willing to unleash hell upon those who would seek to cause harm.



Extras


Interests: Outside of his current occupation Soko interests include: learning about other Nations, practicing his firebending, reading, and making metal sculptures.



Fears: Soko isn't afraid of many things, but being trapped underground would be his greatest fear.



Goals: His goal in life is to carry on his mother's legacy in his own way and help as many people as he can.

  Name: Raman Baner
  
  Status: Expedition Character
  
  Age: 25
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Residency: Ba Sing Se
  
  Occupation: Informant

  Hair: Sokka-length, curly brown hair
  
  Height: 6” 0’
  
  Weight: 190 lbs
  
  Skin: Olive toned
  
  Distinguishing features: Always seen with his goggles. When he uses Sand Sight or does a lot of sand bending, they help keep all the sand out of his eyes.​
• 
  
  
  

  
  Bending Type: Earth bending
  
  Sub-class: Sand Bending
  

  
  Special abilities:
  Sand Sight: Raman has the ability to create a cloud of sand particles that gives him the ability to "see" everything within the cloud. This cloud can be as thin - if he's trying to be more discrete - or as dense - if he needs to blind everyone but himself - as he wants or as the situation calls for. As expected, the thicker the cloud, the better his sight.
  It should be noted that because he is still perfecting his, he can only create clouds that have a radius of about 10 feet. He can move the cloud as close or as far as he wants, but he can only see a 10-foot radius at a time.
  
  Sand Torrents: Raman's most powerful attack is an ability to crumble the ground beneath an opponent's feet, turning it into a sand-like consistency and then bringing wave upon wave of the crushed up ground on his opponent's, effectively drowning them with sand.
  He rarely bursts this out as it is draining and is rather violent for his otherwise pacifistic nature. This comes out in a desperate situation when he's been backed against the wall. In which case, the waves of sand don't stop until the opponent is fully drowned.
  
  Rock Chain: Raman's most common attack is essentially a whip sword made from rock. Rather than launching projectiles, Raman simultaneously bends 12 - 15 smaller rocks and uses them to attack consecutively. It's a good attack for creating distance and crowd control and, if he's able to knock you down, all 12 - 15 rocks are coming crashing on top of you and you are sure to feel that.
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  Raman was born into the sand benders of the dessert. Even as a boy, all he knew was harsh winds and harsher suns. However, his parents taught him how to thrive, even in that barren place. It wasn't long until he discovered his ability to bend sand. In fact, he was able to bend sand long before he ever moved a rock. It quickly became clear that he was a talented bender. His ability to feel the sand shift around him almost made it seem as though he could communicate with the sand itself. It wasn't long before his talents outgrew what the sand benders could teach and his parents took him into the city to find a master that could train him.
  
  Under his master, he learned how to "communicate" with solid earth the same way he did with sand (his seismic sense). However, his style was unique. His bending wasn't strong and forceful like earthbending typically is. He was much more fluid in his motions and creative in his applications, much like sand itself and reminiscent of a water bender.
  
  His studies under his master led him to do a lot of travelling, where he adapted his style more as he watched water benders, coming to understand sandbending as the perfect combination of waterbending techniques with earthbending principles. However, after having experienced being able to use seismic sense, whenever he would go back to his home, surrounded by sand, he felt like he had lost a powerful ability. So he developed a sand-based seismic sense, one where he fills the air with sand particles and can feel anything within the cloud of sand by feeling how the sand shifts around objects in the cloud.
  
  After developing this and a few other skills, it became clear that he had skills that poised him for information gathering. So he began working with the black market information dealers. Unfortunately, a rat exposed their operation. However, the government felt that his skills were better suited serving them than trapped behind bars. So he now works as an on-the-street informant for the leaders, travelling often between Ba Sing Se and Republic City.

  "Can we go back in time to before you tried to start a fight? I'd really prefer not to hurt you.”​
  
  Positive traits: Playful, Reliable, Resourceful, Protective, Fair, Loyal
  
  Maybe not-so-positive traits: Overly sacrificial, Stubborn, gullible, impulsive, lacks stamina
  
  Likes: Animals, Pranks, Starry nights, Spicy food, A nice adrenaline rush, the beach, travelling
  
  Dislikes: The cold, bullies, large crowds, bright lights, loud sounds
  
  
  
  He is a "watch and wait" kind of person, not quick to reveal all the cards in his hand. He has learned to read the room and, also, read people good enough that he may not even need his seismic sense to know someone is lying. He stays rather silent and unseen until he feels he has a decent enough read of the situation - at which point he inserts himself into the situation's very heart.
  
  His trust is notably difficult to earn and even harder to lose once you have it. Most people haven't seen him angry, but that isn't to say that he doesn't get angry - he just hold it in until the right moment, choosing vengeance over wrath. Those that have seen him blow his top, however, will strongly advise you to avoid that side of him the best you can.
  
  He identifies as a pacifist and - in very many ways - he is. He would rather talk out grievances than fight and is rather quick to forgive. He is known to only fight if it is in defense of someone else that may not be able to defend themselves. He is the type to let you do almost whatever you want to him because he is confident that he has nothing to prove. However, he very quickly becomes a different person once he notices you trying to take advantage of someone else, even if they are a stranger to him, worse if they are women or kids, worse still if they are friends or family.

I can't code so I'm just using plain text here.

Expedition character
- full name: Yei Sugi
- age: 23
- gender/gender identity: Cis female
- occupation: Athlete/Pro-bender
- residence (where they live currently): Republic City
- Bending type: Fire
- Level of Bending Mastery: Like most pro-bending athletes Yei possesses an aggressive and rather non-traditional style of bending, thus is difficult to classify. Certainly she would not be at the level that the more traditional benders would consider "mastery". She has, however, received some formal training from childhood back in the Fire Nation before relocating to Republic City.
- Special Skills: Lightning generation
- history/bio: Yei has humble beginnings in the Fire Nation. Although he had been a respected soldier, an injury forced her father into early retirement. It was disappointing to the man that his career had been cut short, but at least it had enabled him to settle down with his sweetheart and pick up on some of his craftsmanship skills. Some point during this time Yei was conceived and then shortly after she was brought into the world.

Practically right from birth Yei proved herself to be feisty and difficult to control. She was a naturally curious child, the type that is prone to getting into incidents: breaking objects, getting injured, etc. This innate nature of the child only increased tenfold when it was revealed that, surprisingly despite her parentage, that she was a bender. Now the family had to contend with stray flames potentially setting the place on fire. Additionally, they felt powerless to help the child to wield this power, thus beginning their search to find her a proper master.

The family had a modest income, mostly consisting of the father's military pension and whatever he managed to earn from his craft. However, he also had a reputation, one of respect and renown for his deeds during his military career. This made some bending masters eager to instruct his child, including some of the finest in the Fire Nation. Although many of the masters found the child difficult to control the family eventually found one suitable, an older and jaded man who was a military veteran himself. He became one of the few capable of instilling a sense of discipline in the wild girl.

During her training Yei picked up many of the traditional firebending techniques, including lightning generation. In fact, she proved herself to be something of a prodigy. The master became certain that she would move on to do great things in the world. Yet, despite all this instruction and praise the girl found her attention shifting to something else seemingly more trivial: the sport of Pro-bending. She came to like the fast paced and intense nature of the game, something she felt could finally keep up with her. As a result she began imitating some of the techniques utilized in the sport, rather non-traditional firebending techniques that did not win her master's approval. After some time he simply gave up on trying to train the girl at all. She simply stuck to her own ways, rather stubbornly, although she proved to be a formidable bender in her own right.

One day during a casual pro-bending match in the outskirts of her town, Yei was noticed. She was seen as being potential new and fresh talent, precisely what the sport needed. Soon afterwards she was recruited into a team. She performed well, quickly becoming a fan favourite. She also found herself climbing the ranks, eventually being asked to join one of the bigwig teams back in Republic City. It was an offer she could not refuse, both for the chance to play professionally and to see parts of the world outside of her own neck of the woods.

Soon Yei found herself settled in Republic City living as a professional athlete. She still retained a loyal fanbase and was known to be one of the top firebenders in the league, yet somehow it was not enough. She came to crave more in life: adventure. Fortunately for her, having a reputation came with opportunities. She found herself invited to join the expedition to search for the lost Avatar, yet another offer she could not refuse. Especially if it got her away from her monotonous life.
- personality description: Much like the element she wields Yei is a fierce individual. She is headstrong and perhaps even short-tempered. She is not one to back down from a fight either, especially when provoked. Surrender is also rarely an option for her as she is very much the type who has to prove herself and even get in the last word. Naturally, she excels at more offensive bending techniques.

Although she possesses this fierce attitude, Yei is principled. If she is given something worthy to fight for then she remains loyal to that cause. She will very much choose her battles depending on which side she believes is fighting for a righteous cause. She knows the history of her own nation and hopes to be a more positive reputation in the shadow of the former Fire Lord Zuko's ideals.

Perhaps unsurprising for someone in her profession, Yei has come to enjoy her time in the limelight. It has forged her into a rather extroverted individual who basks in the opportunity to get to know others. She is, at heart, a social butterfly. She enjoys making friends about as much as she enjoys the prospect of adventure. She is curious and a curator of the unknown, someone eager to jump into an unfamiliar situation (which can also come with the potentially fatal flaw of her not having a tendency to plan ahead).​

Expedition character or side character: Expedition Character

Full name: Publicly: Lee Kishim/Privately: Tonatiuh

Age: 35

Gender: Male (he/him)

Occupation: Publicly: Junior Adjunct to the Fire Lord/Privately: Emissary of the Sun Warriors

Residence: Capital City, Fire Nation

Bending type: Firebender

Level of Bending Mastery: Master

History:
To the general public, Lee Kishim is an average citizen of the Fire Nation. He was born in a small village and is the only child of a farmer and his wife. He entered the civil service as a young man and quickly became an adjunct in the court of the Fire Lord, serving mostly as a chronicler and recorder of official business.

In reality, Lee Kishim is the public alter ego of Tonatiuh, a Sun Warrior. He was born as the second son of the Sun Warrior chief. Tonatiuh was raised among the hidden tribe in the ruins of their ancient city, where he learned the pure nature of fire and the philosophy of the Sun Warriors. He studied the practical applications of firebending under the tutelage of his father. When the time came, he brought a spark of the eternal flame to the mountain looming over the ruined city. There, he was met by Ran and Shaw, two of the last living dragons. They judged his worth and found him deserving of the knowledge they held. Ran and Shaw bathed him in their rainbow flames. Tonatiuh saw the true meaning of fire and the power of the sun. He descended the mountain a full-fledged Sun Warrior.

From there, Tonatiuh became an assistant to his father and brother. He helped maintain the order and secrecy of the tribe. The small island rarely crossed the minds of outsiders, and they rarely came snooping around old stone ruins. Nearly five years ago, Tonatiuh was given a task by his father. Ever since the time of Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Zuko, the Sun Warriors’ philosophy had enjoyed a resurgence in the Fire Nation, and their secrecy and independence were honored by the succeeding Fire Lords. However, the world’s balance had been upended by the passing of Avatar Korra, the failure of a new Avatar to emerge, and the strange new lands. To better serve the tribe and the world, Tonatiuh would be sent to the court of the Fire Lord to serve as an emissary of the Sun Warriors, promote their philosophy, and aid however he could with the state of the world.

He was introduced at court under the alias of Lee Kishim, a minor adjunct with an unimpressive background. Throughout most days, he would sit behind a small desk off the side of the Fire Lord’s throne room, recording the work of the Fire Lord. However, when sent for, he would meet with the Fire Lord in secret to discuss the growing concern over the state of the world and the limited affairs between the Sun Warriors and the Fire Nation.

Personality:
As Lee, Tonatiuh has adopted a meek and submissive personality. His shoulders hunch forward. He moves quickly from place to place and keeps his eyes trained on the ground. The illusion is complete with a pair of thick glasses and and oversized robes.

As Tonatiuh, he is a proud man. He stands tall and carries himself with quiet dignity. Having communed with the first firebenders, he is deeply connected to the spiritual side of bending. He believes in the redemption of foes and those who have transgressed. He would instead redeem and rehabilitate an enemy rather than outright kill them.

Interests:

• Astronomy
• Arts

Fears:

• The loss of Ran and Shaw
• The discovery of the Sun Warriors’ city

  Name: Suzu Hamauzu
  Age: 29
  Gender/gender identity: Female/ (she/her but she is not picky)
  Occupation: Criminal Entertainer
  Residence: Fire Nation Capital
  Bending type: Air Bender
  
  Personality description:
  A girl of questionable nature, mainly why? This soft-spoken chatterbox is light hearted and the type to throw a cheeky joke to the wind. Suzu doesn’t really seem to sweat the small stuff and remains as fickle as the breeze itself. Laughing at jokes she doesn’t find funny to fit in, doing her best to mind her manners when the situation calls, and the type to let others take the spotlight. For Suzu happiness is the sound of harmony with those around her. How much of her personality is true or fake is a mystery to even Suzu herself.
  
  Below the surface is a brewing storm, a vague sense of unease Suzu can’t put words into. Her accepting nature and lack of desires gave birth to cowardliness. Her wish for harmony led to ignorance. Unable to rise to lofty heights Suzu finds herself in the eye of an emotional storm of her own making unsure if she should ask for help or lash out.
  
  [art is from Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent of Hasumi by Naoki Ikushima]
  
• 
  Level of Bending Mastery:
  
  Highly skilled at sound bending and highly skilled at air bending. Suzu focused on nurturing multiple skills early in life causing her air bending to not reach as lofty of heights as other benders. While not as impressive as flight her mastery over vibrations in the air allowed her to bend sound itself offering trickery and utility. Suzu’s bending style focuses on precision and small-scale effects with each action flowing into another to resound and reverb. She struggles more in direct combat and in larger group situations due to the lack of raw power so the best she can do in most fights is break even and try to escape. The more utility supportive nature of her bending also hinders her in one against one combat.
  
  To cover the weakness of her bending Suzu focused on her bending endurance to outlast her opponents like a slow crescendo while keeping her opponent guessing what her next move will be.
  
  Other than her utility using sounds Suzu mostly uses her air bending to create small vacuums or darts of air to try and hit pressure points or manipulate the space of the battle field.
  
  Special Skills:
  
  Chi blocking:
  While the blows with her body may be hit for miss due to her frail strength to block the chi points by combining it with her bending, she has overcome it. In return for the flexibility and consistency of her chi blocking bending style the duration is lessened.
  
  Area Aria:
  Similar to how metal benders use vibrations in the earth to sense things around them, Suzu can do the same through the air using both the vibrations of sound and the flow of air itself. Such echolocation gives her heightened spatial awareness to the things around her even if she can’t identify them.
  
• 
  
  Born in a podunk village in the middle of nowhere Suzu had a pretty normal life wanting for little. Which was good because the village had a bunch of nothing in it. It only managed to hang on in the modern era due to specializing in traditional and historical methods of crafting.
  
  Once she showed signs of being an air bender Suzu was enrolled in a school for benders during which she learned chi blocking but eventually the need to send money back home became more pressing than her education. In a sense it was a relief being able to leave since she struggled to make friends with her fellow students due to her lack of desires. It didn’t help Suzu’s case that her high level of acceptance caused rumors of her being cold hearted to swirl about. Thanks to a letter of recommendation from her teacher Suzu ended up finding work as a servant for a wealthy man.
  
  As a non bender he loved nothing more than having benders work under him to flaunt his status. The entire mansion was filled to the brim with different historical replications, was it a museum or an obsession for the old days? Suzu learned a lot by the different books he kept at the estate with each of them claiming to be historically accurate bending manuals or stories of past avatars. Such studying was encouraged for all of the servants because the second thing he loved the most was putting on shows for his clients and droning on how things were better in the olds days and how modern society was wrong for embracing technology like they did.
  
  Blend in Suzu, support the other Suzu, and most commonly, servants should be seen not heard Suzu were common quips directed at her never pleased with her boss but Suzu put up with it because she had finally made some friends with some of the other servants. They made a merry little gang of trouble makers. Obsessed with the radio she relentlessly practiced her bending to dampen the sound around her so they could listen to it at night or gossip during work hours without their boss catching on.
  
  Eventually the leader of their little gang decided it was time for them to be their own bosses and convinced the group to leave the mansion to become entertainers. It didn’t take long to learn that being an entertainer meant working on the shadier side of things. Between mercenaries, informants, and just plain thieves the group made a living. Donning an alter ego to maintain her privacy Suzu used her skills to keep guards from being alerted, to make sure their clients could have secret conversations, and most of the time not even use her bending, just be a pretty face as an actual entertainer to justify their cover stories. Suzu finally discovered a desire to make these times last so she turned the other waay feighning ignorance to the true nature of the group's dealings. As long as she didn’t hear anything, as long as she was none the wiser, and as long as she could send money back home Suzu could pass it off as an acceptable level of criminal activity in her mind. Like a fickle breeze it did not take long for the winds of change to arrive.
  
  Unfortunately, she discovered what she thought were just average shady dealings were in fact more like cult based shady dealings. Not even to justify it as taking from the rich and giving to the poor Suzu disappeared into thin air then and there rather than confront anyone. Seeking clemency, she made her way to be employed by the FIre Nation palace as part of their staff in hopes of catching Fire Lord Dosu's attention.

  personality

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  shu is an extremely outgoing person who enjoys to make casual banter, and laugh as if it'll be her last. she is a self-willed and a strong-willed individual who has found her way in life. She believes that finding ones true and authentic self is how anyone can activate their true bending potential. Shu is cheerful and confident in any setting, which can set her apart as the loudest person in the room. However, Shu is also practical and realistic as this is how she needed to be when in the military. She had to be witty to outmaneuver others in her rank, and had to rely on her less natural aspects of being stubborn, cunning, and uncompromising. At the top, she was assertive as it was usually her way or the highway. Do not be fooled by her height as Shu can maintain her stance when her mind is set; Like a true Earth bender.

  history

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  A day in the life of a young Shu consisted of being attended to constantly by servants, and bodyguards. As a child she was given the best of the best items, top choices of fabric for her clothing, and a personal nanny. When little, she felt the world was hers to take, and nothing less. Her parents did everything in their power to make that her reality. They managed every single aspect of her life from the clothing special tailored to her measurements, the academics she received from scholars, and even to who she was constantly surrounded with. Looking back, it was a beautiful life that she would have loved to stay in forever, if possible.
  
  Roughly at the age of 9 her baby brother was born. From there everything in Shu's life changed from one of an heir to one of a future wife. At the time she didn't like it, but it wasn't so bad. Her little brother was adorable, and she grew to love him. Though there were changes to the daily schedule Shu was still able to maintain a fairly privileged lifestyle. Her parents did not love her any less than they loved their new son and heir.
  
  By age 15 their family was at the height of power and prestige. Her father managed to maintain the trust and rank in the Earth Kingdom military, and her mother was the model socialite in Ba sing Se. It was rumored she was even gained friendship with the wife of the current emperor, which was a prestigious title to hold in the social community. Everything from their public life, their home life, and their private life was to be admired as they were the epitome of perfection.
  
  However, fairytales do come to an end. One fateful evening 2 military personnel arrived to their estate, and delivered the news that her father was killed in a skirmish outside of Ba Sing Se. The shrieks Shu heard from her mother would echo throughout halls of their estate. The words her mother shouted appeared in Shu's dreams for weeks on end, as if to remind her of their new reality. Shortly after this, her brother would attract a mysterious illness where rashes appeared all over his body. A fever followed, so it was recommended to stay as far away as anyone could. Only 1 physician was available with a trained nurse to assist with her brothers needs around the clock. Her mother was adamant on being by his side the entire time, and did not allow anyone else to enter the estate. Because of this, Shu was moved to their 2nd residence nearby so as to prevent any spreading. She never saw her brother again. As he succumbed to his wounds Shu noticed her mother retreat into herself. Shu remembers how all the light her mother once had in her beautiful almond eyes was no longer there. She was less than half of who she used to be, and would spend the rest of her days locked in her room. Thus, all of the household duties fell onto Shu to manage...
  
  Being looked at as the heir of the family fortune was a daunting task for a 16 year old, and she was not nearly equipped to handle what was to come. She prefers not to go into detail, but their household turned into a war zone. One side of their vast family believed Shu had no claim to the fortune as she was a woman, and another side believed she was unfit to handle house affairs as she was ill suited for the task. At times, Shu would be knocking outside of her mothers room seeking advice on what she needed to do. Her mother, who most likely knew what to do in this situation had all but abandoned her for the past that was no longer. She alone had to persevere.
  
  Eventually, Shu grew to understand life in the political sector, and how to navigate herself to appear as a figure worthy of their family fortune. shorty after graduating early from school Shu joined the military, and rapidly joined the ranks of the elite. In part due to her fathers reputation, and in part due to her wit and ability to outmaneuver others. She had built a façade out of how she wanted to appear to others, and became a success. Nevertheless, she felt lonely and discontented. she had done all of this and for what? Over time Shu grew to yearn for more in her life. She wanted to reach out and explore. Her heart ached for something more.
  
  Once she turned 26 Shu decided to discharge herself from the military. This decision was against the advice of her family elders, but she was the one who called the shots. From there, she decided to back only as much as she could carry, and go out into the world to discover who she really was. giving one last knock on her mothers door Shu left.
  
  Shu explored many parts of the world; from the Earth Kingdom outside of Ba Sing Se's Military to the Northern Water Tribe, and to parts of the Fire Nation. she has bought items, given clothes and money, and assisted with many side jobs along the way in exchange for cash and lodging. Shu has met many good people, and has been able to expand her knowledge of bending. After missing her home Shu had returned to her hometown of Ba sing Se, but on passing the border she was guided to meet with the emperor. There she was given a strange mission of joining others to go on an expedition. The expedition was not the weird part, but that there was no additional information provided to them about said foreign land...
