BioAkane was born in the Fire Nation capitol city, to a fairly prosperous family. Her mother was the head of an industrial company which had made a good chunk of its profit through military contracts, and her father was involved in the political scene, working for the Fire Lord as an ambassador to the other nations. This life left Akane wanting very little as she grew up. Her talent of bending was discovered at a very young age, something which Akane had inherited from her mother, and it wasn't long after when her bending training began. Along with being tutored for her bending, Akane also was provided with an academic tutor in place of schooling, as her parents believed a private atmosphere would help her in her studies.
As time went on Akane wished more and more to see different parts of the world, as for the most part everything she could need was provided within her home, and there was not much need at all to even wander the city. In fact, it wasn't even until her mid teens when her parents finally allowed her to roam the city on her own. This life may have seemed almost perfect to most, though deep inside Akane could feel a passion for adventure bubbling up. At the age of seventeen Akane explained this to her parents, who to her surprise understood completely. In the end they agreed to allow her to go out into the world on her own and make her own destiny, rather than stay cooped up in the capitol her whole life.
Akane was ecstatic with this, and wasted no time in packing a couple bags with necessities. She left home the next morning after saying her goodbyes, and began her life as a traveler. The freedom felt refreshing to her, and along her way she performed various odd jobs to make money. Not once, however difficult things got, did she ever wish she had remained at home. A couple years passed in this way when Akane heard a rumour of the new Avatar having been found, and The Order coming after them. To her, this sounded like the start of her biggest adventure yet, and so Akane set out to find this new Avatar, looking to help them fulfill their Avatar duties and evade capture by The Order.
PersonalityAkane can be described as a happy-go-lucky girl, mainly interested in having a fun time with whatever she is doing. Along with this she is very kind and caring, going out of her way to help those in need. She likes to crack jokes, no matter how bad they might get, and is always looking to make new friends. She can be overly trusting at times, a trait which has gotten her into troublesome situations before and will likely continue to do so, though it is something Akane can't help. She always sees the good in people and has a difficult time seeing the bad until it's too late. Akane is also a very spiritual woman, being particularly keen to sensing spirits that most overlook. Because of this, she has been thought of as strange when seen seemingly talking to herself.

OtherShe has an acute awareness of spirits, on the same level as most air nation monks. This allows her to see and communicate with almost all spirits.
Akane is capable of creating fire with heat high enough to produce a blue coloration, though most often uses regular fire.
She is able to generate lightning, though is still practicing bending it and is by no means a master.
Despite her size, Akane's stomach is seemingly bottomless. She could out-eat the entire earth kingdom army if she wanted. Needless to say, she is almost perpetually hungry.
Akane has a pet tigermonkey which she met early on in her travels, whom she has named Ryuu. Ryuu has a mischievous nature and often attempts to "alleviate" people of their belongings, bringing what he takes to Akane as gifts.
