[[File:
'''Koh'''
{{quote|
{{quote|
One of the oldest spirits in the Spirit World, Koh is a nightmarish centipede creature with a dangerous hobby of stealing faces. If he sees a face that makes even the slightest twitch of emotion, he will snatch it off and wear it as his own. Ever since he was attacked by Avatar Kuruk, he's held a grudge against the Avatars. Still, he is privy to many secrets of the world around him. So if Aang comes knocking on his door for help, who is he to refuse? [[False Reassurance|There's always room for one more...]]
He only appears in one episode (three technically, but the other two were a flashback to that episode and a cameo), and barely does anything, but he's so damn creepy that everyone remembers him.
Line 206 ⟶ 207:
* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]
* [[Series Continuity Error]]: Koh claims that a past Avatar tried to kill him "Eight or nine-hundred years ago." but only Kuruk is ever mentioned as having attacked Koh. Even taking into account some Avatars' extended lifespans, it's ''very'' unlikely that Kuruk lived any more than
** It's possible ''previous'' avatars before Kuruk have had problems with him, since we only know of the immediate 4 prior to Aang and that's he's an [[Arch Enemy]] of the Avatar.
* [[We Will Meet Again]]: He says this, but their second encounter is never shown on screen, instead happening in an online game taking place between the second and third seasons, while Aang is in a coma.
* [[White Mask of Doom]]: His most common, and possibly his true, face.

'''Xin Fu and Yu'''
{{quote|
{{quote|
{{quote|
Xin Fu is the coordinator of the wrestling tournament in which Toph participates. When he thinks Toph cheated him out of the prize money he offered for her defeat, he kidnaps her and demands the prize money back as ransom. He is later hired by Toph's father to bring her home after she runs away.
Line 253 ⟶ 254:

'''Jin'''
{{quote|
Jin is a citizen of Ba Sing Se and a regular patron of the tea shop where Iroh and Zuko work. She nurses a crush on Zuko and decides to ask him out on a date, which doesn't go very well.

Despite her very short screen time, [[Ensemble Darkhorse|she has gained a decent measure of popularity with the fandom.]]

* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]
* [[Big Eater]]: Zuko even addresses it.
* [[Cat Smile]]: One of the reasons fans like her quite a bit.

Wan Shi Tong is known as the great knowledge Spirit, which takes the form of a large black owl with a white face. Wan Shi Tong created the Spirit Library to house his ever growing collection of knowledge, and brought it to the mortal world so that humanity might benefit from such wisdom. However eons of seeing humans abusing his knowledge for the sake of conflict has turned Wan Shi Tong to ban humans from his library for their misuse. When the Gaang arrive their, Aang promises not to abuse the knowledge they gain from the library, but quickly go back on their world and learn about the Fire Nation's vulneralbility during a solar eclipse. Wan Shi Tong decided enough was enough [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|and took his library back to the Spirit World while simultaneously trying to kill the Gaang for what they did.]]
Line 290 ⟶ 291:
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: Wan Shi Tong literally means "He who knows ten thousand things."
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: "I am Wan Shi Tong. He who knows ten thousand things."
* [[Humans Are
