[b]Strengths & Weakness:[/b]
Pema has the strength to stand for what she believes is right, and will not tolerate those who do not go by what is right.

Pema has a near irrational fear of fire, in all its forms, she dislikes firebenders to the point she would rather kill them than fight beside them. This comes from the fact that her father was a firebender and he used it to keep her under his thumb.

[b]Personality:[/b]
Pema is generally light hearted in life, only turning serious when there is a genuine danger nearby. She has been known to have flairs of anger when she perceives any form of injustice, outright losing her temper and using her bending to set the offender straight. At the end she is full of regret about these outbursts and swears it will never happen again, but time has proven that is not true.

She has an eye for beauty and can get quite jealous when she sees someone she considers someone more beautiful than herself, this had led to many minor fights with friends over the years. Despite her insecurities she believes in the world and that it is something worth fighting for, dying for if it comes to it.

[b]Background:[/b]
Pema was born in one of the many small farming towns supporting the earth Cities, where she grew up with her father learning to work the land growing crops for the cityfolk. Her father always had a strong will and no qualms about using it to keep his daughter under control, she rarely got to leave the farm and the times she did she snuck out and received a beating the next day. 

She never knew her mother; her father grew angry if she asked, so she soon learnt not to. The few townsfolk she spoke to knew her mother and spoke kindly of her and seemed to imply that she had run away from her husband unable to take Pema with her. As she grew older she learned of her earthbending and snuck out for lessons at night with the young townsfolk, she grew better at sneaking out using her bending to cover her tracks, often her father did not even know.

Pema grew close to one of the older boys named Tigal and they did more than train with each other, he urged her to run away with him but she always refused. The time came when Tigal decided to ask her father if he could marry Pema but her father refused saying that Pema was not meant to marry a simple village boy. The next day Tigal returned and challenged her father that was when she learnt what her father really was. He fought with sword at first but when Tigal disarmed him he turned to his bending, using fire to gain the upper hand. Tigal, surprised was burnt badly, across his face and arms. As her father went for the killing blow Pema intervened using her own bending sending the earth beneath him up forcing him high into the sky.

Pema picked up Tigal and went to flee but her father was quicker and managed to burn her across the chest, Tigal still conscious but in pain knocked her father out. Pema got them to her father’s Ostrich horse and left heading for the water tirbe and their healers. 

It was a long journey and when they finally made it the water tribe took them in and saw to Pema’s burns but it was too late for Tigal, despite the healing he died and Pema swore revenge on all firebenders and people like her father.

[b]Other:[/b]
She had a love once, but no more. She wears on her wrists a pair of bracers studded with small rocks she can use as ranged weapons, no matter where she is. 

So many moments to go with but I’m going to have to say when Combustion Man was defeated in the last book. Boomerangs are awesome.
