Line 23:
** Let's not forget Aang himself. He starts off as this rather goofy, optimistic kid. Then proceeds to learn that his own people have been killed off, basically everyone he ever knew it gone, that he's capable of pretty horrible destruction and might need to kill people.
** The episode "Appa's Lost Days" does this to [[Team Pet|Appa]]. Kidnapped by Sandbenders, sold to a circus, beaten, sleep-deprived, forced to abandon friends in need, and captured again. This flying bison needs a freaking ''break''!
