i've accepted death. :^) thankfully my sister is at work so she can't shove it down my throat because I'm a 22 year old adult. My cough syup is wine dammit.
But anyways. I finished everything of Ezra but his history but thats....ugh. that's ugh. I gotta write up an entire bull history of how he's avoiding responsibility.

just rough draft a paragraph! Your description is very nice so I won't have a problem if you just wanna type a simple basic personality and update it as you go!

[ yeah, i feel that. the majority of the time my characters actual personality ends up being miles away from what it was originally on their form. i'm more a fan of bullet-pointing it and then developing on those
edit: hey shades, do you mind if we throw in like, interactive background characters in the rp posts? ]

I don't mind!
So I have a question. Is Amias going to be a Jeong Jeong teacher, an Iroh teacher, a Zuko teacher, or General Zhao?

wow I'll be pushing 40s when you're done. Ha ha. But! I like your characters so far. I can't wait for Grey. I hate General Zhao and Tarrlok so much I put all my willpower in a General Zhao/Tarrlok villain.

Ohoho, Gray is one of my favorite characters I've ever created and I've always wanted to use him in an antagonist role. This is gonna be fun. He's such a snake.

I'm debating on taking the King or the Wise Old Man. Do I want a Iroh-esque character...or....well if I make the King he'd be kinda mix of Izumi in his methods but a bit like a toned down matured Prince Wu as a public figure who is not afraid to show the camera or be in large crowds.

[ I think the Wise Old Man would be easier to integrate with the group in the beginning, but it depends on what you're looking for in the character ]

in terms of importance, the Wise Old Man is probably more important cause his dojo would probably be a common ground for Team Avatar once it becomes Team Avatar. At least until they gotta leave the Republic and travel.

ADLARTOK UMIAKTORVIK[ Daksina Republic ]
[ DOB. 1270 AG — Year of the Dragon — ]
Unknown ;; Adoptive Mother : Tiilaqiia, meaning "Beautiful Plant" [ Daksina Republic presumed ;; Daksina Republic ]
Unknown [ Daksina Republic presumed ]
Adlartok, in and of her self, is anything but striking. Sure, she is beautiful, but everything about her screams "subtlety". Rich, almond-shaped eyes observe the world around her in colors darker than night itself. Her hair is long, and black as the underside of the moon, cascading to her waist. It shines in the light, and is usually contained in a thick braid.
Adla's braid is not the only thick thing about her. Adla can only be described physically as "dense". Short in stature, Adla reaches an underwhelming height of 5'1", and is often mistaken for a child, save for the thick muscles she carries. Adlartok grew up as a hunter in her small village in the South Pole, and she built quite the muscular legacy in herself. She is tough, with strong endurance, and lacks the basic qualities that most deem aesthetically pleasing (slender, curvy, large eyes, etc.). This doesn't mean she isn't beautiful.
Adla's true beauty shines from within.
THE DEADBOLT
Adlartok has a smile that outshines the sun, and a laughter that could fill the entirety of all the oceans she moves. She is kind and compassionate, and has a fierce loyalty to those she loves. However, her loyalty has led her to be ruthless and strong. She is a warrior at heart, in that she is deep, dark, and dangerous, just as the waters she carries in the palms of her hands. She is a force to be reckoned with, and she never backs down. She has been known to butt heads with those she doesn't agree with, but she is also easy and quick to forgive. She holds her values close to heart, and requires time to take in and process other people before becoming close to them. She is very much like two sides of the same coin, and constantly looks to the spirits of Tui and La for guidance.
Most interesting about her is that Adla doesn't enjoy her bending. Though she possesses immense capabilities and has gathered quite the expertise through her studies and travels, she feels her bending is more of a burden rather than a gift. She was one of the few to have it in her village, and learned to do without. She took lessons before deciding that she wanted more for herself than the small village, and left to pursue the world. She now arrived in Nation City with no real plan of action, despite the growing tension in the world around her.
Adlartok meaning "Clear Sky" and Umiaktorvik meaning "river". Adla, as she is referred to by her friends, was found in a canoe washed up along the far edge of her village. There was no note or name attached, and her small, baby self, was quite nearly frozen with cold. An older woman, whose husband had died ages ago, found her and took her in, devoting her to the Tui and La spirits as she knew the ancient story of Princess Yue. Favor found young Adla, who was able to be restored to health. The woman, name Tiilaqiia, cared for her and raised her, naming her Adlartok as the sky was crystal clear when she was found, and Umiatorvik after her path of arrival. Because of this. Adla still gives great homage and respect to Tui and La on a regular basis.
Adlartok grew in grace and with ease, falling in well to the small village life. She was always searching for answers, always hoping the missing pieces of her might be explained. When her bending prowess appeared, she willingly took lessons in hopes that would explain more. When no answers were provided, she left home. She traveled the world far and wide, recording her journeys in her notebooks and making her way in further as the world continued in its upheaval.
She now resides in Nation City, making money off the bets of the underground bending arena and a day job working for Future Industries, and has yet to get her license. She is still unsure whether she wants to use her gift, or keep it locked away forever.

Post by shades on Dec 29, 2017 18:44:15 GMT -5
18-22 most likely. So far the characters who are Team Avatar are 19-20.

oh! 1270! I think. Ezra is the same age. He's on the character page if you wanna look (my Internet is being weird with this six foot snow blocking my escape from hell to travel between pages. Plus I just wanna watch Avatar with what I can get from the web)
She looks good. Since she's from the Southern Pole her technical nationality is Daksina Republic. But otherwise everything is oki doki!
