Divided Spirit - An Avatar RP (Avatars claimed, still open!)

_{THE AVATAR}

_{Eiru Tafai / Agender / Waterbender / 9
Eiru, while young, has a very strong moral code. They believe in doing what is right for the people they care about, and they will not allow acceptable casualties. Their admittedly naive viewpoint often leads to an insistence on saving everyone and making sure that everyone is happy. Eiru is about average height for their age, with clear blue eyes and dark, unruly hair. Their dark skin is consistent with that of other waterbenders in the southern water tribe. Eiru is much too young to think about romance, but they will, in the future, like people of any gender. When provoked, Eiru can be terrifying, and they will stop at nothing to save their friends, even if it means sacrificing themselves or giving in to the enemy.}

_{Velan / Male / Air / 21
Velan is a young man with short dark black hair and intense blue eyes. He stands at about 6 feet tall. As an airbending master, he has the traditional tattoos that others do, with the forehead tattoo peeking out from under his hair. He dresses in dark leather garb that is comfortable for movement and stealth, and always carries a glider-staff as a form of quick transport and a weapon, along with a katana. He is almost always accompanied by his bison Pon, his partner and best friend. Velan was originally raised as a traditional airbender in the Northern Air Temple. He was originally thought to be a regular airbender, but he is in fact one of the four pieces of the current avatar. An airbending prodigy, he gained has tattoos at the age of 10. Originally, he was a happy-go-lucky boy who was optimistic and a pacifist. However, after an ant-Airbending group called the Poison Air Movement began targeting air temples around the world, and with the refusal of aid from Republic City, Poison Air assassins began to strike airbenders down and nearly decimated the temples, causing monks to flee around the world. This changed the 14 year old Velan's outlook on life, and after escaping the air temple with his life, he resolved to put an end to the Poison Air Movement himself, and turned rogue in an effort to exercise his full potential in this endeavor. As such, he has rejected several Air Nomad principles in his quest, including his nonviolence, and is more than willing to attack and kill if necessary. He also fights with a katana in accompaniment with his staff, something that the monks look down upon. He has abandoned traditional monk garb in favor of more combat-oriented clothes, and has grown out his hair to hide most of his tattoo to conceal his identity if needed. A deep disgust for Republic City and it's alleged support for the Poison Air Movement has led him to reject anyone who supports the city, and swore to never set foot in it himself. Despite this, he does retain some aspects of his former life. He is still a vegetarian like other nomads, and although he is very wary of getting close to other people, his flying bison Pon is one of his closest and most trusted friends.}

_{Anastasiya / Female / Firebender / 21
Anastasiya stands at a height of 5"6, her features sharp and defined. Her eyes are one of the most defining features of her face, the thick lashes that encase them not helping to tone down the vibrant color at all. The soft blue color of her iris mixed in with the golden tint around the pupil just makes it impossible to not stare. The hue stands out more thanks to her dark hair. When caught in her gaze, she's often the one who has to look away first seeing as how the other cannot look away. Her hair frames her face in gentle waves, the ebony color cascading down her back similar to a waterfall. She tends to run a hand through it whenever she's feeling anxious or if something upsets her. When she puts her hair up in a bun or ponytail, the back of her head is shaved in an undercut, a zig-zag pattern clearly shown. Her neck is usually adorn with a choker of sorts. Same with her hands, she decorates them with rings of many different design. Her nails are cut into the stiletto shape, meaning that they're sharp and cat-like, and she paints them black. Her right ear has an industrial piercing, the piercing itself mimicking a safety pin. Her left ear has a tragus, and both ears have four lobe piercings. Above her left collarbone is the saying avoir elle est l'avoir les étoiles which translates to: "To have her is to have the stars." The Roman numerals IX.XIX.MMXII are beside it. A small freckle is seen to the left of her soft pink lips, which is typically seen in a smirk or a frown of distaste.
Anastasiya is often guarded and wary when it comes to strangers; she speaks to them when spoken to. Her responses tend to lean on the bitter side and are often laced with sarcasm. It isn't difficult to get her upset, and she usually has to stalk off and cool herself down before her ability is unleashed. She puts up a facade whenever she exerts herself and her ability brings her more pain than she can handle. She hides it with a grin and a sarcastic remark to change the conversation topic. Anastasiya hides her soft, gentle demeanor around strangers with a cynical and cold attitude.}

_{Zveth / Male / Earth / 19
Zveth is everything you would expect from an earthbender- tough, resilient, and powerful. He is those things in both appearance and personality. Zveth has black hair that is longer  on top and cut on the sides, along with bold brown eyes. Tanned, muscle-y body, and green and gold clothes is how you can easily recognize him.}

_{WATER BENDERS}

Zari / Female / Water / 16
Zari is a young waterbender from the Southern Water Tribe. Zari has long light brown hair and bright hazel eyes. She is usually dressed in comfortable souther water tribe garb. A strong waterbender from childhood, at the age of 12, she met Eiru, one of the four Avatar parts, and was tasked by the tribe to protect the young waterbender as they learned waterbending. She became a close friend and companion to Eiru and watches over the younger waterbender, protecting them from trouble, although Zari acknowledges that Eiru's abilities are just as good as her own, if not better by now. She is usually friendly and respectful but can get very protective when it involves Eiru, and will take any prospective threat to them very seriously.
