[Male | 17 | Fire Nation]Kazuki is a pride-driven youth, born in the city of Ba Sing Se. What he lacks in Firebending strength, he makes up for with his courage and stubbornness. Although taken in by the Fire Nation regent, Iroh, Kazuki remains highly independent and sovereign, preferring to do things his way(even when it really isn't the best option), as seen with him choosing to join the Fire Nation Militia in the Earth Kingdom. This type of attitude has gotten him in severe trouble, yet he still remains as a loyal servant to the Fire Nation itself as a country, not to the Phoenix King Ozai, who'm he takes a severe disliking to, due to his tyrannical decisions and oppression of the Earth Kingdom. In short, Kazuki will stop at nothing to protect the lives of the innocent, no matter what the cost. Kazuki is troubled emotionally, especially with his confusion on his destiny as a Firebender. He has always pondered his existence, even until today. He wishes to understand the element of Fire, it's true purpose, and why he was given the power of destruction. Other than this mystery, he also wishes to find out who his real parents were and why he was abandoned.
TraitsKazuki is a Firebending prodigy, even when he does not realize it. The skills in which he taught were passed down to him by his adoptive father, Fire Lord regent Iroh. However, he suffers from a lack of control with the element of Fire, as all do who cannot keep it's destructive power in check. To compensate for this, he learned the way of the sword from his cousin, Prince Zuko. Many years of practice have led Kazuki to become adept with swordsmanship. Despite this, he still has much to learn if he wishes to become a full-fledged Firebending master. As of now, he is studying on inventing a new Firebending technique, one which will hopefully even impress the very dragons who taught Humans how to control Fire...

HistoryKazuki's memories and past are clouded in mystery. Prior to his adoption, Kazuki lived in the streets of Ba Sing Se, a youth whose parents were unknown to him. For two years he lived alone, scavenging, begging, and stealing for money and food. It was not until he was at the age of eight that the Fire Nation regent, Iroh, had discovered him living in the streets during one of his visits to his brother, Ozai. He was ambushed by a group of Rebel Earth Kingdom soldiers and was close to capture, until Kazuki aided him in their defeat, with his newly discovered Firebending, sloppy though it was. After the ordeal, Kazuki explained that he was an orphaned child and how he had survived in the streets by himself. He expressed his concern for the well-being of a stranger being attacked by random vagabonds, showing that he truly had a kind heart within. Soon after, he took the latter in as his adopted son, raising him to become a fine young man.
During much of Kazuki's young life was spent training to become a warrior-prince, one who would bring honor to his family name. This, however, was unsuccessful, as Kazuki was unable to control the destructive power of the element of Fire. To compensate for his lack of control and skill, Kazuki took up the practice of swordsmanship. His sparring partner, Prince Zuko, would train with him daily until each of them had grown adept with the skill and became fierce swordsmen. After he was well-skilled, Kazuki left for Ba Sing Se, to become a part of the military. However, due to unlucky circumstances, his uncle, Phoenix King Ozai, declined him the honor of becoming a military officer, due to his illegitimacy. Instead, Kazuki joined the Militia, working his way up to a Lieutenant in the Earth Kingdom Division, earning the loyalty of most of the militia's men due to his brave actions, making just decisions, and treating the people of the Earth Kingdom fairly, who'm most Officers would abuse and belittle for being second class citizens. As of now, he still works towards becoming a Firebending master...
MiscellaneousKazuki is currently a Lieutenant of the Fire Nation's Military, Earth Kingdom Division.
