By the way, we'll be stopping at the Fire Nation first since that is the next element in the cycle. :) Just a heads up.

Also, in my next post, have your character ready to fight and save the Avatar. ;3

@iSuspect

I totally didn't see this before posting, and I'm actually really glad I didn't. Fighting while seasick and with little to nothing to bend with is gonna be interesting, lmao.

Tai Song

Earthbender

It was incredible to him how different life was outside of the Lower Ring. The stench he'd grown accustomed to for most of his life had been replaced with varying aromas of food and herbs from the market stalls and homes in and around the city, and the walls and buildings were so much brighter, it almost made his eyes hurt. Yet even with the increase in security within Ba Sing Se and the overall peaceful aura about the place, Tai couldn't help but to tense up. The calmness of it all was... unnerving, almost. As the group of benders and non benders moved through the city, he would constantly turn his head to look over his shoulder, the back straps of his rucksack dragging on the ground as he held it by his side.

Tai hesitated at first once they reached the boat, gritting his teeth at the very thought of the trip ahead. With a subtle sigh, he threw his bag over his shoulders and stepped across the plank, finding a spot of his own on the ground, against one of the stacks of crates piled near the middle of the ship. Just as soon as he'd gone to open up his bag, from out of the corner of his eye, a blur of brown and green quickly fell to the floor with a winded "Oof!". The noise caused him to look over, only to witness Terra having landed flat on her face from the sudden shifting of the boat, her face flushing as Lee helped her to her feet. He fought against the urge to make a face at the two, looking down at his lap as he flipped open one of his books, the cover hidden behind his legs.

As the boat rocked and creaked through the ocean waters, Tai found himself placing a hand to his mouth, nausea suddenly hitting him like a brick. Just several feet from him, it sounded as though Terra, Ling, and Lee had gotten into something of a spat, though he hadn't been paying attention long enough to determine the cause of said spat. Meanwhile, the waterbender of the group had paced off towards the edge of the ship in a huff, Lahe, the airbender, had wandered away to the head of the ship, and Feng... wait, did Feng get on the ship at all? As the boat continued to sway, Tai pulled his knees closed to him with a muffled groan, his skin going from pale to green as he glared out of annoyance into the pages of his book.

Tai Song

Name;;
Tai Song

Nickname;;
None at the moment

Age;;
20

Gender;;
Male

Primary Elemant;;
Earth

Secondary Element;;
Seismic Sense - Tai learned this ability through his blinded sister, Chiya, the only other Earthbender in their family other than their father.

Appearance;;
Tai is very tall and athletically built, his skin olive in hue. His dusty brown hair seems to naturally grow upwards into what looks to be a less dramatic mix of a pompadour and a mohawk. His eyes, however, are much more dramatic; two bright gray irises with a faint, golden-brown ring circling his pupils. His face is mostly blemish free, save for the mole sitting just above his left eyebrow. For clothes, Tai keeps his attire simple and versatile. He can commonly be seen wearing his green, button up hooded jacket, which he leaves around his waist in warmer weather. With it, he'll often wear a tank top and a poofy pair of brown pants. To better protect himself while engaged in physical fights, he'll wear a pair of thick black gloves over his hands, and a sturdy pair of brown work boots.

Likes;;
-Reading (preferably dramas)
-Salty foods and snacks
-Animals, particularly larger, cuddlier ones
-Crafting or building different things (weapons, furniture, etc.)
-Cooking, despite not being very good at it

Dislikes;;
-Loud, repetitive sounds
-Sweet foods such as chocolates and cakes
-Dishonesty, or when people won't speak their minds
-Thunderstorms
-Hot weather

Strengths;;
-Optimistic, doesn't let the negatives discourage him too much
-Loyal and supportive of others
-High endurance, completely capable of fighting for long periods of time
-Seismic Sense allows him to anticipate certain movements, which makes him difficult to catch off-guard

Weaknesses;;
-Easily annoyed, frustrated, or agitated by others
-Can be honest to the point of coming off as rude
-Outright refuses to lead, due to being uncomfortable with such a role
-Awful at dodging attacks, as well as close combat

Personality;;
Tai is a very optimistic and supportive man, always trying to see the best in a situation or in other people, at first. He's also eager to please and eager to help others, especially those who need it the most. His temper tends to get in the way of all this though. Tai is very quick to frustrate and even anger, and once he's in one of his bad moods, it usually takes a while for him to come back out of it. He can also be very blunt and brutally straightforward, but at the same time, it's also unlikely for him to keep secrets or lie to other people.

On the up side, Tai is incredibly loyal to those he calls his friends or family, going so far as to put the desires and needs of others before his own at times. Additionally, he's great at taking orders, and would much rather follow than lead. And despite his hotheadedness, Tai is definitely not always a grouch. He's talkative, friendly, and although he's terrible at making jokes, it's easy to make him laugh, provided he's in a good mood.

Background;;
In his youth, Tai lived with his parents and four older sisters, along with two other large families in a moderately sized boarding home within the Lower Ring of Ba Sing Se. Although he was more similar to his father in terms of looks, he took after his mother's hot headed personality, often getting himself into fights and spats with other children his age. Despite the prescense of both of his parents throughout his early life, they were not the ones who truly raised him. His sisters were the ones who would look out for him, while his parents worked multiple jobs both day and night in order to provide for their family. Although Tai still cared deeply for his overworked mother and father, the relationship he had with his siblings eventually grew to be much stronger than the one he held with his parents.

Even though his parents worked tirelessly for hour on end, making ends meet was still difficult for the Song family. In order to lessen the burden on his family, Tai resorted to thievery, pilfering anything that he needed or wanted for himself. Through this, he ended up making friends with several other boys like himself, eventually forming a ragtag group of teens that terrorized the markets and shops of the Lower Ring. For a while, Tai took little to no issue with stealing from others. After all, almost everyone he knew was doing it, and so far, he had been doing it without any repercussions.

This all changed when he was eighteen, when he witnessed two of his good friends mug an elderly beggar for what little he had. As he watched his friends beat the poor old man, he felt incredible guilt and shame for all the times he'd stolen from others. After that night, he grew depressed not just over the incident, but from believing that he'd completely wasted his life making other people miserable for his own selfish reasons. It was his oldest sister, Siyu, who would help him through his depression, and eventually prove to him that even though he'd made mistakes in the past, he still had the chance to do good in the future. Although Tai never fully got over his guilt, he began to dedicate himself to helping others in his neighborhood. It was also through his sister that he gained a more positive outlook on life, giving him a renewed hope for the future.

Extra;;
Tai has some experience with building makeshifts shacks and repairing weapons, and he'll happily help make something if asked.

He keeps a black rucksack on his back, which carries all of his essentials, along with a book or two.
