Character Information

Name; Azome

Bending Abilities; Waterbending, Healing

Birthplace; Republic City

Gender; Female

Appearance;
Azome stands at a height of 5 feet and 8 inches (173cm) and weighs in at 129lbs (58kg). She has a thin build with a slight curve to her hips, average bust, and minimal muscular strength. She has dark ebony hair that falls down to her waist. She always has tied back from her face, often set in long braids that are fastened at the ends. Her eyes are almond shaped and an ice blue color, giving her a rather intimidating gaze. A thin set of lips and long straight nose compliment her slim face well, overall giving her a very sharp look. Her clothing match the colors of a typical Water Tribe individual, though she keeps her clothing lighter than usual as she is not very affected by the cold. She typically wears the same outfit, not sporting any kind of jewelry other than a thin headband and a pouch to carry water in as accessory.

Age; 23

Backstory;
Azome was born in the Northern Water Tribe and from an early age, was adept in Waterbending. She, along with her younger sister Shizue, were able to learn from the best in the Tribe, following the rules and harsh training techniques to master the skills of waterbending in a short amount of time. She was, at a young age, molded to be the perfect fighting machine. While her mother was sick and her father stayed by her side, Azome would sometimes manage to sneak away, to explore the tribe and the surrounding area, a little at a time.

She met a baby Polar Bear Leopard while exploring the near lands around the Northern Tribe. After attempting to heal the little creature with her bending, she realized she was not yet proficient enough to do so, and so she carried the little thing back home, protecting it from a heavy storm and trudging through the snow for hours after getting lost. When she arrived back, exhausted and freezing, both of them were treated by the tribe healers. Azome being healed and given warm soup, and the little cub given a splint for the broken foot it had suffered. The two spent some days together until they were fully healed, but then her mother ordered her to take the thing back to the wild. Obedient as she was, Azome would reluctantly take the creature back where she had found it, and together they searched for its mother, in the end not finding it. Deciding then that she would take on the responsibility of it and managing to convince her mother of this, she named the cub Kavi, and the two would grow up together, inseparable even to this day.

As Azome would slowly grow up, her need to explore the world grew with her. Eventually, after the sad passing of her mother from sickness, her father passed soon after from a broken heart. During this time, Azome and her sister relied heavily on each other, eventually both deciding to leave the North and travel around. Their exploring landed them and their pets in Republic City where they have lived ever since.

Equipment; Azome travels very lightly, often having Kavi carry anything she may need to. The only things she has always on her person are her water pouch and headband, which is hollow and filled with water for just in case purposes. If she needs things like a change of clothes or food, they can be found in a bag strapped to Kavi's saddle.

Physical Attributes and Abilities; Waterbending/Healing(6)

Other; Azome has a pet Polar Bear Leopard named Kavi - Male - About half the size of Naga, can carry up to two people.

Name: Shizue

Bending ability if any: Waterbending, Healing

Birthplace: Northern Water Tribe



Age: 22

Backstory:
Shizue was born and grew up in the Northern water tribe, learning from the best masters of Waterbending on how to heal and fight when she showed potential at bending. She found that though she was fairly skilled art the art, she was no where near as talented as her older sister Azome. Her sister tried to tell her different and she might be right but she couldn't take the strictness of the masters and preferred trying it alone. It gave her time to practice other weapons in case all water was gone in an area or in a tight spot. It seemed all was practically perfect, that is until their mother got really sick and no matter how much anyone tried it just wasn't getting better. Shizue even tried herself once when her mother was sleeping, hoping that maybe she could do it but it hadn't done anything. Her mother still faded away, smiling even in her last moments and saying goodbye to them all for the last time. Their father was a mess, his heart broken as he had held out much hope of her getting well and not even leaving her side the second she was found sick. It left an empty feeling in her own heart but she didn't let it get her down, fighting to stay happy and strong for her dad as well as Azome. It was long before their father on the other hand felt like they needed to get away, away from the place where he could see his wife in every person and every turn. He thought about joining his sister in the Southern Water Tribe but decided against it, having a feeling even their he would be haunted with the memory so instead he went to Republic City to start a new life. Unfortunately, it wasn't long after the move that he too passed from the world as his heart was too broken to hold out which left the two daughters to fend for themselves.
During this time, Shizue and Azome relied heavily on each other, eventually both deciding to leave the North and travel around. Their exploring landed them and their pets in Republic City where they have lived ever since. Shizue opening up a highly successful tea shop called 'Panda Lily'

((I found this while looking for something else and couldn't resist))

Shizue found this little guy in kind of a horrible way. She was hunting, trying to practice a better aim along with the fact she was tired of having fish since she wasn't having much luck with anything else. It was then that she saw it,a large Addapard, it being occupied by what she assumed was a fresh kill or maybe even grazing so she took her shoot. Shizue rushed over in excitement but then felt her heart drop at what the beasts attention had been on. A small cub, its eyes not even open. Shizue felt like she might be sick, not even being able to look at the kill she had just made and not feeling right about eating the creature now. She carefully scooped up the cub, taking it with her and taking care of the poor boy by being its mother. Mitsuru is now her close companion.

[CLIW]

Name: Masika

Bending ability if any: Earthbending

Birthplace: Omashu

Appearance: Can't seem to find a picture that fits what I have in mind! She's short (5' exactly), stout, has dark skin and dark-red hair tied in a thick ponytail, and brown eyes, and is muscly but also has a good amount of fat on her. (dat run-on) Pear-shaped build, with her hips wider than her shoulders. She wears the expected green garb that many people from the Earth Kingdom wear. Many wouldn't consider her build an elegant one; she's got big hands and big feet and broad shoulders.

Age: 21

Backstory: Born in the outer edges of Omashu into a lower-class home with four older brothers, Masika never got a huge deal of positive attention. She bickered almost constantly with her siblings, shared a room with two of them, and always wanted a place to call her own. So, when she was sixteen and horribly overconfident, she quit town much to the dismay of her close-knit and large family, though she promised to write often. She went to Republic City in search of a well-paying job with which she could get a nice home. Currently she lives in an apartment with a not-too-bad view, which she thinks could be better but she can't complain.

Items/weapons on person: A pack of snacks and some money.

Physical Attributes and Abilities: General earthbending III, magmabending (?) I

Alysia

Name: Alysia

Appearance: Although she shaved her head for her initiation a few years ago, Alysia once again has long, dark hair that hangs just past her shoulders. She has bright blue eyes and a round face. While she is certainly not slender, she is very fit and muscular. At roughly 5'8" tall, Alysia towers over most of the women around her, but her gentle face and perpetual smile tend to put people at ease.

Age: 22

Gender: Female

Bending ability if any: Airbending

Birthplace: the Northern Air Temple

Backstory: Since the time of Avatar Aang, the Air Nation has been steadily growing. Alysia is among those who grew up there, and the lucky few who were airbenders. She trained as a monk throughout her childhood, and had several opportunities to see the world through her travels as a novice airbender helping others who requested the assistance of the Air Nomads. Alysia was among the more studious airbenders among her friends, and cared more than most about the lengthy history lectures and technical skills.

Just two years ago, Alysia was assigned to work in Republic City, taking requests from the people there for assistance from the Air Nomads. In recent years, as the motion to help other nations has grown, the Nomads made an effort to place at least one center in each country where requests can be made directly to an airbender. It has been difficult and overwhelming for Alysia to adjust to the new position, as city life is far more hectic than the order of the temple. At the end of her second month there, her stall where she took requests was robbed, and she briefly returned to the temple. However, she decided eventually that this meant the people of Republic City must need an airbender, and that it was therefore her responsibility to be there to take their requests and help them with their problems.

Mehi

Name: Mehi Shnota

Bending ability if any: Fire, lightning, chi sense, & combustion (however she won't use it until last resort genuinely since Combustion Bending has a bad history, and she doesn't want to be affiliated with those poeple).

Birthplace: Fire Nation

Appearance: Average in height, as well as very fit, she keeps her hair short enough she doesn't have to deal with it very much, and she's got grey eyes. She typically wears lots of red and black fire nation clothes, and always wears a bandana (she doesn't like it when people ask questions about her third eye).

Age: 23

Backstory (Optional): She's the daughter of a Fire Nation noble, most of the younger end of her life she spent at her family's mansion. Once old enough she was sent to the Girls Academy to be formally trained by tutors, however she was a trouble maker, fast learner, and very powerful, and the tutors managed to kick her out slightly prematurely (however she had learned just about everything they could teach her anyways). After a short time of decision making she was sent to the Bhanti tribe island where she stayed with her brother for a while, during her visit she learned how to use firebending to sense energy paths. After staying on the island for a while, she and her brother decided to explore the world. After going through fire nation, and getting more used to advanced technology again, they set for Republic City.

Haruto

Name: Haruto Shnota

Bending ability if any: Airbending

Birthplace: Fire Nation

Appearance: Much like his sister, however he's got slightly longer hair hers (despite being an air bender) as well as having side burns and a beard in the 'scruffy' stage. He's also half a head shorter than her with darker grey eyes.

Age: 19

Backstory (Optional): He's the son of a Fire Nation noble. His grandfather had become an air bender@ during the Harmonic Convergence, but chose not to join the airbender nomads, but rather stayed with his wife, and for the most part didn't develop his abilities beyond simple control. Later on his father also inherited air bending and chose to stay with his family rather than join the Air Nomads. Due to a lack of air benders outside of the Air Nomads he learned to airbend using fire bending styles.

During his younger years Haruto was taught how to use chi blocking by his grandfather (who actually used his air bending to assist his speed instinctively) Haruto had the choice to join the air nomads but decided that he wasn't sure yet. He was sent to the Bhanti tribe who had a handful of fire nation air benders amongst them where he learned most of his air bending since his father's was very basic, and grew well practiced in spirit projection. He kept his chi blocking skills up while working on his air bending, and a while after his sister arrived decided that the two of them should explore the world.

Items/weapons on person: Airbender staff

Physical Attributes and Abilities:
Air bending/Spirit Projection III
Chi-blocking/Martial Arts III

He has a Flying Bison named Skid who has a tendency to make rough landings and commonly making rather obnoxious burps (not just burps, Flying Bison burps).

Kieran

Kieran Jong | 23 | Earth

Birthplace: Republic City

Backstory (Optional): Kieran was born in Republic City to an earthbending mother and a nonbending, water tribe native father. He grew up with a decent life, his father worked as a chef and his mother was a police officer. Kieran himself got into the normal amount of mischief as a kid, of course his mother's status as an officer kept him on the right side of the law most of the time. As he got into his teens, he dabbled in the pro-bending leagues, winning enough money to get him by. Recently, he took up a job at the restaurant his dad works at as a sous chef. His mother is working on enrolling him in the police academy, but lacking the money for the upfront costs, Kieran has decided to work alongside his father for now to save up the money.

Items/weapons on person: An engraved sabre fang from the northern water tribe, given by his father. Some change. A metal wire spool similar to what the police force uses, modified to be hidden underneath sleeves.
