Spiritual Projection
»Chi Sensing
Weak point(s):
»Pacifist. Responds only to threats, violence is a last resort or used only in defense.
»Does not take anything or anyone seriously. Very detached. May take threats as a joke. Very incapable of reading the room.
»No sense of direction.
»Will not shave his head out of sheer laziness. Not as aware of changes in the air as other male airbenders who accept baldness for that "sixth sense".
»Projecting his spiritual form leaves him defenseless, his lack of direction also makes it so he'd never dare to venture far. In fact, he's only attempted it once and got lost for a good week or two. Afterwards, he vowed to never attempt it again.
»Wants little to do with spirits who try to befriend them. Will play with them in return for their use but finds them noisy and intrusive overall.
Personal
Appearance:
Standing just short of 6ft at 5'11, Lei has a slender build toned by years of training. His long straight black hair is parted in the middle revealing his airbender tattoos. Considered generally attractive with sharp features and heavy lidded grey eyes. He finds clothes stuffy and dresses in loose often half undone robes but most often wandering around with the top undone or with his chest bare unless it's a formal occasion. He carries his glider/stave with him, the fabric a light blue to match the sky on a good day..
Background:
Born and raised in the eastern air temple to two airbenders, Lei's path had always been laid right in front of him. Even after their premature passing, he had no other interests other than following the path he knew. From young, he has trained strictly to master airbending. When others realized he had a natural affinity with spiritual energy, the training only intensified, many seeing only the potential he had rather than him as a person. They called him a prodigy. The pressure to become great and follow in the footsteps of others eventually led to him rebelling. He left the temple and left to explore the world at the age of 16 right after getting his air nomad tattoos.
It was during this time that he joined a daofei group called the Order of Gold. It started with him getting kidnapped to him leading a gang of thieves in Republic City. It was only a year into their operations when they were caught trying to pull a massive stunt that he was eventually brought back to the Eastern air temple who went from viewing him as a prodigy to branding him as a disgrace. Facing exile, one of the older monks stood up for him and gave him one last chance on account of the potential he harbored.
Lei reluctantly accepted the opportunity to assist the white lotus at bringing the avatar down. Should it prove successful, he would be welcomed back with open arms.
Extra
»Vegetarian (Loves Cabbage, Cucumbers, and Oranges)
»Has strong beefy fingers from training his finger strength since he was younger. His finger flicks are known to have given someone a concussion.
»Brings his pet
Moth Kitten he raised from a Cat-erpillar himself everywhere he goes. Her name is Mimi and she has a cold lazy temperament like her owner's original temper. He picked her from a bush after being rejected by all the sky bison calves. They've developed a bond ever since.
»Wears bells on his ankles to announce his arrival to others but is constantly dampening the sound unless he actually wants the attention.
