*Name: Korra
*Universe: The Legend of Korra
*Appearance:
*Personality: On the surface Korra is fierce, independent, tomboyish, and pugnacious. However, beneath her tough exterior, she possesses a strong loyalty toward her friends and duty as the Avatar and an admirable compassion and devotion seen in moments when she expresses love toward things such as her family and friends. Her offensive battle style means that she is always quick to initiate or rise to a challenge and she is extremely quick witted and impulsive, especially in heated situations. As an "Avatar-in-training", she lacked perception toward the damage her bending is capable of, and her rash decisions often resulted in her accidentally insulting others.
*Powers/Skills: Korra can manipulate all four elements, and access the Avatar State which greatly enhances her abilities.
*Brief Bio: Korra moves from her secluded upbringing at the South Pole to Republic City to learn airbending from Tenzin, Avatar Aang's son. She enters the pro-bending league, and befriends the brothers Bolin and Mako, the latter of whom she eventually falls in love with, as well as Asami Sato, heiress to Future Industries. The ambitious politician Tarrlok enlists Korra to fight the anti-bender uprising of the "Equalists", led by the masked Amon, who strips benders of their abilities. Eventually, exposed as the son of a blood bending crime lord from Aang's lifetime, Tarrlok reveals Amon to be his older brother. Korra and her friends, aided by police chief Lin Beifong and United Forces General Iroh, manage to unmask Amon to end the Equalists' military coup. While she lost her connection to the elements of water, earth, and fire, Korra finally gained her airbending, and a later spiritual meeting with Aang allowed her to learn energybending, and to thus undo the damage Amon caused to her and his other victims.
Six months later, Korra starts learning that restless spirits ("dark spirits") have been terrorizing the south seas. Feeling that she can not learn to calm the dark spirits through Tenzin, Korra turns to her uncle Unalaq, the Northern Water Tribe chief, for guidance. But as civil war among the Water Tribe branches ensues, Korra learns that Unalaq arranged for the exile of her father, Tonraq, and had used her to achieve his own agenda which she learns is connected to her most distant past life: a young man named Wan who became the very first Avatar by permanently fusing his soul with the spirit of light, Raava, to seal her dark counterpart Vaatu in the Tree of Time with the portals to the Spirit World closed. However, having tricked Korra into reopening the portals, Unalaq plans to free Vaatu in the upcoming Harmonic Convergence and then fuse with the spirit to became an Avatar himself. Once merged with Vaatu, Unalaq purged Ravaa from Korra and destroyed both the spirit and Korra's connection to her past lives. However, Korra is able to absorb energy from the Tree of Time that allows her to fight the Dark Avatar, and with the help of Tenzin's daughter, Jinora, she manages to reclaim the reborn Raava from within Vaatu, and destroys him, with Unalaq being killed in the process. After the battle, Korra re-fuses with Raava, but her connection to the past Avatars remains severed. Korra keeps the spirit portals open so that humans and spirits can coexist as a new age begins.
Two weeks later, Korra loses favor in Republic City since the spirits' arrival to the point of being expelled from the city by President Raiko. Furthermore, as seen with Tenzin's older brother Bumi, the Harmonic Convergence has caused some non-benders to become airbenders with Korra accompanying Tenzin to find these new airbenders to revive the Air Nomad civilization. However, as Team Avatar is joined by an airbending pick-pocket named Kai during their search in the Earth Kingdom, a dangerous criminal named Zaheer gains airbending abilities and escapes to free his allies Ghazan, Ming-Hua, and P'Li before going after Korra. She is taken to this mysterious island shortly after she finds Kai.
*Equipment: Her clothing is the only equipment she has.
