Bio: Luna is the youngest daughter of fire lord zuko and Hayami but the strongest out of her siblings since she has a stronger connection to spirits which was discovered by aang so she was later trained under katara to better her water bending though she still trained with her mom more than she did katara. Luna later Mets korra nd the gang in book 3 where she went with them to zaofu but before she met korra Ang the gang she was usually seen hanging around the air temple or water tribe

I said Japanese because I looked up what the fire nation was based off and it was imperial Japan

The reasoning behind why Iroh choose a doll for Azula, from a colonial perspective

irl, colonizers and other dominant groups made dolls of minorities to assert their hegemony and subjugate them, often using stereotypes e.g. https://www.ferris.edu/HTMLS/news/jimcrow/links/essays/toys.htm

These toys were also used to indoctrinate children into particular cultural values or racist ideas. This might be the purpose of Azula's doll. It might be made in EK or FN colonies. Either way, it may represent the colonized EK female, symbolizing women the colonizer can own and objectify. It fits the stereotype of the pretty EK girl from Iroh's song. That might be the message of the doll.

If so, this wouldn't make it better that Iroh gave Azula the doll not the knife. But it shows his chauvinist and sexist thinking that he would use the doll to say: FN women, you can be imperialists too! (just not by fighting or being ruler, that's for boys only).

Maylin and Mu, twins: son and daughter of Viper and Sing.

Maylin

Gender: female

Element: earth and metal

Eye color: grassy green

Hair color: shadow black with white tips

Skin tone: honey beige

Mu

Gender: male

Element: water

Eye color: grassy green

Hair color: shadow black with white tips and streak

Maylin and Mu are the offsprings of Viper, a member of the Triple Threat Triad and Sing, a police lieutenant. They were born from Sing and when they were 1 week old, they met their father, he was happy to see them.

Until when they were 6 months old, Sing was forced to give her children away to father so Viper would be second command instead of Thornscar Tai. Fourteen years, they were raised by their father and forgot who their mother is.

After Tokuga overthrown their father,and became the new leader of the Triple Threat Triad and eventually killed their father, they left the gang and start a crime of their own.

Three years later, they met lieutenant Sing, they thought she was going to arrest them they prepare to fight until Mako intervene he explained to the twins that Lieutenant Sing is their mother. Mu refuses to believe that and thinks it's a trick, but Maylin insisted on Mako to explained as Mako explained to them that: they been birth by Sing and she gave them to their when they were 6 months old in order for their father to become second command of the gang instead of their uncle ,Tai.

Mu said that they been loyal to their father and triad when he was still second command and leader ever since Tokuga killed him. They left the triad because they don't follow a murderer of the family. They been own ever since.

To their surprise, Sing cried out "My babies!" and said that she very proud of them being strong, brave and independent and said that father raised well.

Mu was more shocked and confused than his sister, and yelled at his mother for being weak and scared then he stormed off. Leaving Sing heartbroken and guilty.

Until Sing sacrifice herself to save Mako from a man-eating sabertooth moose lion, she and the animal drowned in the river until Mako and the twins pulled her out. On her dying breath, she apologizes to her kids for not being there for them and she gave them away to save them from their uncle. She always loves them and happy for being people she and their father always hope to be.

Then she asked them to forgive her and Maylin replied they forgived her. With that she smiles and slowly dies. In the afterlife, she is reunited with her parents and sister, but most importantly She and Viper were finally together; 17 years ago they made a promise that once on their final days they would be in a place where no one will ever part them again and their wish came true.

Maylin and Mu became allies with Mako, every time they looked at the stars knowing their parents would very proud of them.

Thornscar Tai, husband of Sakura, brother-in-law of Sing, father of Ichiro, uncle of Maylin and Mu.

Tai is a member of the Triple Threat Triad, he works on getting the "protection" tax from stores and making deals with others.

He met Sakura, a resident of Central City Station which is Triple Threat territory. Every day he and Sakura would meet at the cherry tree, they would talk and relax.

Sing, Sakura's older sister did not want her sister to date a gangster, in reality she is actually jealous that her sister is dating someone.

Tai left the Triple Threats and married Sakura, he became the metalbending police academy instructor (which Sing is in to be train as an officer). His arrogance got the best of him, he began training the recruits to advance training but they were not ready except cadet Saikhan who made it through.

Sing disapproves this, but did her best to not go too far until he lead the cadets to stop a turf war between the Red Monsoons and the Triple Threats, Sing quickly report this to Chief Toph Beifong as she and the rest of the officers stop this.

Sing explained everything to the chief about Tai's training, Toph suspended him from the academy despite Tai's anger he complied.

During his suspension, he spent time with his wife and their 1 year old son, Ichiro. His arrogance slowly began to change until Sakura got ran over a Red Monsoon truck and died at the hospital. After the funeral, he blamed Sing for the cause of his wife's death and get revenge by making her suffer just like he did.

He rejoined the Triple Threats, mentoring a young nonbender named Tokuga and defending his son even though he now lives with his aunt.

One day, he was running away from the police until he fell down into a thorny bush, getting scratches and thorns all over him. The officer tried to arrest him, but he used his metalbending to unwrap the cables on him.

When he made it back to the hideout, completely angry and humiliated he nicknamed himself "Thornscar Tai" to remember the humiliation at the thorny bush. Sing seek a vision of him drench in blood and having a sickening smile, she realized that he would become second command of the Triple Threat Triad, and leading the triad and the police in complete danger.

She was forced to give her six month year old children, Maylin and Mu to Viper, who had a secret romance with Sing. Viper had Pepper, a member of the Swamp Mask Triad to look after them, so he would become second command instead of Thornscar Tai. He eventually succeed became Lightning Bolt Zolt's second command instead of Tai.

During Viper's first day as second command, Viper and his members avoided getting arrested but Tai remained. When he spotted Sing, he was furious and accused Sing of planning this so Viper would become second command instead of him, but he was unaware of the new second command and police lieutenant having a secret relationship.

He began fighting against his sister-in-law, using his abusive bending to beat her when he was about to end her life, the police patrol intervened and killed him, ending his vengeful madness for good.

Could someone please make an au of this?! 🙏🏾

okay, so remember when aang finds out that fire nation soldiers were at the southern air temple and enters the avatar state and the statues' eyes in the air temple sanctuary light up?

and then after that the different avatar temples in the other nations also light up?

so does that happen every time the avatar goes into the avatar state? or only the first time it happens?

so either way, they really should've noticed it sooner, like when aang went glow mode three times before this??

one when he first created the iceberg to protect himself and appa

two when katara cracked the iceberg

and three later in zuko's boat

and even if we consider the first two to be one long extended avatar state like some theories suggest, even then the temples^^ should've lit up two avatar states ago...

Drama with Hama - or not

In the show and overall by viewers, Hama is not considered a good character. The show insinuates, that Hama is performing revenge on innocent people of the same civilation (the firenation) just as how the soldiers of the firenation kidnapped and enslaved the waterbenders of the southern water tribe. By fans she is mostly viewed as evil and crazy, since she „cursed“ Katara with the ability to bend blood.

But is Hama actually evil?

The more i rewatched the show, the more i understood, that Hamas hatred and actions are actually pretty understandable. Of course i do not defend the kidnapping of innocent civilians but in my opinion, to not relate to Hama, is actually what i would consider barbaric.

Hama had to watch her whole civilisation, her friends, her family and most importantly her culture being slowly but surely erased, by the fire nation until she was the last one remaining and had to surrender.

When hama was arrested, she was prevented free movement, as her limbs were chained so she, nor the others would be capable of bending the water. The cages were above the ground. They were occasionally fed, from afar with little dosages of water, as if they were wild inhumane creatures. She probably was forced to watch her friends die in those cages as well. God knows, how long she was arrested in that Jail, and what else she had to go through.. Only by training on rats, to control them, via bloodbending, she managed to escape.

Of course it was wrong to perform revenge on innocent people, especially if she just could've kidnapped the soldiers of the firenation, but overall - considering what she went through, i can only sympathize with her and eye people suspiciously who can't. Because no one, who experiences the same barbaric and horrific things that hama did, would remain sane. This kind of experience really takes a toll and changes everyone. And i 100% understand Hamas frustration and act of vigilantism.

And the Bloodbending technique - she gave on to Katara - is not a curse, but more a reminder of the torture that the firenation put the water benders through and also a symbol of how powerful water benders really are; because no matter what you truly think of hama as a character, you cannot deny that she is truly a real selftought master of waterbending!

Posters for the Earth Kingdom and such.  

I wanted to create a simple symbol for metal, like the circle for the earth kingdom, and I’m pretty satisfied with the result.  

What ethnicity should Republic City represent?

Thinking back to Republic City..... If it's a fusion of Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation Which represent China and Japan respectively.

Then maybe Republic City should represent a country that has both Chinese and Japanese influences.   Maybe Korea or Hong Kong.   Though I'm not sure if you could consider those countries a fusion a China and Japan.  

Anyone from there have an opinion?

Another magic circle for Avatar the Last Airbender.   I’m a huge fan of both Avatar: the last Airbender and Cardcaptors.   I’ve always really like Li’s compass for finding the Clow Cards, so I redesigned it to find the next avatar.
