Name: Masaru
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Element: Native to fire
Abilities: Moderately skilled with hand to hand combat, and could easily compete as a novice gymnast. He is rather acrobatic, and knows several basic stances to firebending.
Personality: Masaru is normally easygoing and relaxed, but passionate at the wrong times, and occasionally about the wrong things. His lack of direction has hindered him before in his firebending lessons, but he has been able to bring himself to focus when needed. Despite his easygoing personality, he can become competitive in the blink of an eye, which brings him into a focused and stubborn state of mind.
Brief Bio: Masaru was born on Ember Island, and has lived with his mother, father, and older sister for the majority of his life. it wasn't until only a year before the white lotus started his training that his sister left the family to work as cryptologist and archivist.

From an early point in his life, the order of the white lotus has been working to keep the Avatar a secret. When Iluq began her attacks on the world, they decided to tell him about him being the Avatar and to begin his training. Before the White Lotus, Masaru has always struggled with his firebending. He displayed the aptitude for it, but could never focus. Months of training did well to focus him, and help him on his way to becoming a fully realized Avatar.

Extras: He has learned that starting fires with certain items can make them different colors, and keeps small little objects in his possession to bend different colors of fire.
