Why did my head get suddenly blown all the way to pluton from a thought that Li and Sutōmu will make an extremely cruel and murderous couple?

| Shanti | 28 | Eastern Air Temple ​

Nicknames
Shan-shan

Gender
Female

Sexual Orientation
Pretty unclear

Primary Element
Air

Secondary Element
-

Role
Airbender

In Depth Appearance

Shanti is of average height and weight but has unusually bright brown hair from using fruit dyes that make her smell kind of sweet. Her movements are calculated and elegant, as in the way she stands. Her short hair makes her look quite young, and her smirking grin hides her origin as a nun. She likes to maintain her smooth skin with natural cosmetics but can't exactly hide the muscles of her limbs and abdomen when in combat or dance. When traveling and not performing, she opts for full leggings and a top in the style of the Earth kingdom locals but in traditional Airbender colors.

Likes
Little children, animals, rice cakes, dancing, coconuts

Dislikes
being in closed spaces for too long, caves, meat, too many rules, fights

Skills
Airbending - she had her arrow in her late teens, signifying her mastery
Dancing - it's her new profession
Acrobatics - part of her performances

Personality Traits
motherly and gives elders' wisdom
happy-go-lucky
quite optimistic
very open-minded
nosy
rebellious
stubborn

Personality
Shanti is still an Airbender at heart and dislikes fighting and conflicts. Despite that, she tends to involve herself proactively in such matters in an attempt to find a solution. She has strong opinions which puts her on the opposing side of authorities quite often. Even when she understands things may not work, she sometimes prefers her way of things and tends to break away when her voice is not heard and her ideas are not appreciated. She has an upbeat personality, with a likable charm and a quick wit leaning on the positive side of things and staying faithful to others.

Shanti is also playful and talkative but dislikes involving her emotions with people and preferring to meditate before big decisions. Believing herself incapable of responsibility and unintelligent, she prefers to follow a close leader figure. She can stand up to a leader of a nation, but she hesitates from standing up to friends.

Place of Origin
Eastern AirTemple

History
Born as Rinchen of the East Air Temple, she grew up aware of her talent in Airbending. She was better than most of her peers and she flaunted it by using her abilities in playing pranks at the elders. This made her popular with some kids but disliked by the stricter nuns and monks. When she was old enough, she was first assigned to look after the little children but the elders felt that her influence was not a good thing. She was then assigned to a flying bison herd. Upset for being seen as irresponsible, she decided to lay low and behave but the children who followed her around tried to play a prank on her to get her to play with them. They tried to surprise her with fireworks but it backfired and scared the bison herd, causing them to scatter. She used her airbending in a new and intuitive way to collect them back, wafting the scent of a special flower that made the flying bisons sleep. She felt responsible for the children's behavior and decided that it was time for her to travel.

Seeing the world changed everything for her. She marveled at Fire Nation's technology, Water Tribes' traditions and Earth Nation's culture. She watched a dance troupe perform in Ba Sing Se and decided that it was the career she wanted. She incorporated her airbending forms with dances and joined the troupe for a year before travelling once more as a solo dancer. By then she had changed er name and kept her hair short-an unusual practice for women at the time which helped her establish her image to her audience. A few years passed and she felt rather empty, unsure of her purpose. When talks of "chi blockers taking people's bending" spread, she stopped performing and went into hiding for a while, planning to report her finding to her own nation's leaders.

Equipment
Airbender staff, dance costumes, berries

Extra
Her real name is Rinchen and she was called Sister Rinchen.

Everyone have fun with your useless baby dragons. I'll just be over here riding a giant, man-eating, lizard bear.

Yep, that's what I mean.
[EDIT]: Suddenly, I thought of Sokka saying "Water Tribe...~".
Imagine Li and Sutōmu saying "Water Tribe" in that way!
 
Sooo...my character is way older than everyone. I've got to make her a tea drinker.

| Xunsu Zhengfu-zhe | 25 | Earth Kingdom |​

Nicknames;;
Feathered-Blade
Eagle-Eyes (used as frequently as an insult as it is a compliment)
Hawk of the East (a nickname which he had given himself, although it has little recognition elsewhere)

Gender;;
Male

Sexual Orientation;;
Heterosexual


Role;;
Chi Blocker

In Depth Appearance;;
Xunsu's appearance alters when it needs to, so to speak. He makes his own feather headdresses every so often, and wears them proudly, sometimes mixing them with valuable jewelry in order to create an elaborate display. His face is usually covered in war-paint, even under peaceful circumstances. Xunsu has a lean, thin body and is somewhat taller than most folks. It's not unfair to say that he's not the most athletic of any group either. For what he lacks in overall muscle strength, he makes up for in his glaring red eyes, which come in handy for intimidation. Preferring to keep his agility intact, Xunsu wears thin, black garments that provide almost nothing in the way of protection.

Likes;;
  • Meditation
  • Art (especially painting & sculptures)
  • Wind chimes
  • Teaching

Dislikes;;
  • Arrogance
  • Pride
  • Buzzard Wasps
  • Fire Benders

Skills;;
  • Spiritual Guidance
  • Climbing
  • Calligraphy

Personality Traits;;
  • Patient
  • Cautious
  • Stern
  • Courteous (occasionally to a fault)

Personality;;
Xunsu has dedicated a portion of his life into becoming as wise as the monks from the Air Temples. He likes to be knowledgeable, and never shirks responsibilities for the sake of convenience. That being said, it takes very little to get on his nerves. Obnoxious people in general make him irate. This is reflected poorly in combat as well, where a foe can draw out the battle by simply annoying the Chi Blocker into making a mistake. In situations where Xunsu can remain calm, he is a force to be reckoned with. Despite his spiritual outlook on life, he can be guilty of overconfidence when it is the least helpful.

Place of Origin;;
Ba Sing Se (Agrarian Zone)

History;;
Xunsu Zhengfu-zhe was the firstborn son of an apothecary father and a street-painter mother, which provided as normal a childhood as one could get in Ba Sing Se. He cared deeply for his family early on, especially when an orphaned infant appeared one day, on the doorstep of his home. The child was adopted and was happily accepted as a little sister by Xunsu. They went to school together, played together, and squabbled as siblings typically do. Xiu Zhengfu-zhe, however, was a sickly child. Despite their father's best efforts with treating her, time wore down on the girl's energetic personality greatly.

It became increasingly difficult for Xunsu to care for his sister over the years. His heart broke every time that she was bedridden, moreso when his family knew that finding a doctor would be a miracle in itself. The old apothecary sold cures for headaches and the like, but nothing along the lines of what his daughter was suffering. Xunsu's father tried to teach him everything that he knew about the human body. The boy absorbed the information well, and much later, he made it his goal to find a cure for Xiu's unknown illness. It soon became evident that this goal could never be accomplished in Ba Sing Se.

Moving outside the city walls, Xunsu spent five years as a nomad across the Earth Kingdom. He had gone through countless misadventures and came out empty-handed each time. On the verge of giving up hope, the young man experienced a vision of a spirit that compelled him to continue his journey. He ignored the advice, deemed himself a failure, and opened up a monastery to the east of Omashu. Still unable to be at peace with himself, Xunsu experienced another vision. This time, he succumbed to the spirit's advice. He would try again at saving his sister.

The monastery which he had founded, meanwhile, was dedicated primarily to non-benders. Xunsu allowed his students to teach him as much as they could, whereupon he gave them supplies or the philosophy of the moment in return. The art of combat became popular among the students, and Xunsu was not opposed to learning of better ways to defend himself. These lessons were put to good use when a flock of Caribou-Hawks swooped down at the monastery.

It wasn't until Xunsu saw that he had paralyzed one of the creatures that he was filled with remorse. Not only that, but he had a better grasp on the nature of chi-blocking. Seeing it as his responsibility to care for the strange beast, Keai proved to be an invaluable asset. The creature's feathers were placed into a headdress, symbolizing the close relationship between man and nature. Bidding his students goodbye, Xunsu left the monastery with his caribou-hawk in tow. A sort of friendship emerged between the two, giving the young man a sense of optimism as he stepped out into the unknown yet again.

Equipment;;
Liuyedao Sword
Leather Breastplate
Canteen
Knapsack
Walking Cane

Extra;;
Xunsu has a pet Caribou-Hawk (named Keai), although it is very stubborn in letting people ride it.

He'll be close with Kassidy since she can't really Firebend. She can but it's all over the place. LOL. :)

Also, everyone, I am thinking about starting the roleplay as to where the masters come to the Southern Water Tribe and get Kassidy. Or should she meet them all at the Earth Kingdom? :/

Kind of torn so your guys feedback is appreciated.
