=== This is a partial character sheet for ''[[The Legend of Korra (Animation)|The Legend of Korra]]''. Visit [[The Legend of Korra (Animation)/Characters|here]] for the main character index. Subjective trope and audience reactions should go on the [[The Legend of Korra (Animation)/YMMV|YMMV page]]. ===
 
== Avatar Aang ==
Line 9:
The Avatar preceding Korra. It was by his hand that Fire Lord Ozai was defeated and the Hundred Year War ended. He founded the United Republic of Nations, a land where the three remaining nations could flourish together, from former Fire Nation colonies.
 
Most of the personality tropes [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)/Team Avatar/Characters|he had in the first series]] still apply.
----
* [[The Ace]]
* [[Always Someone Better]]: Neither Tenzin nor Korra seem to believe they can live up to their father/predecessor's list of accomplishments.
* [[Badass]]: He quelled Yakone's threat to Republic City almost as quickly as it started.
** [[Badass Beard]]: A Lincoln-esque beard, in the style of [[Michael Dante Di Martino (Creator)|Michael Dante Di Martino]] himself.
** [[Badass Cape]]
* [[Bald of Awesome]]
Line 21:
* [[Folk Hero]]
* [[Hero of Another Story]]: Not counting his actions in [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|the original series]], his fight against the villainous waterbender Yakone could probably fill a series all its own.
* [[Legendary in Thethe Sequel]]: Aang's reputation looms so large that his son Tenzin and eventually Korra feel pressure to live up to and maintain his legacy.
* [[Our Founder]]: Has a massive statue in the bay, and his face is printed on the Yuan.
* [[Posthumous Character]]: Justified because Korra is his next incarnation in the world, and he cannot be alive when she is.
Line 34:
Widow to Avatar Aang, Katara is a master waterbender. She directly helped to win the Hundred Year War of the original series and maintained peace afterwards. A native to the Southern Water Tribe, she personally oversaw Korra's training, and developed a strong bond with her. She sees a lot of herself reflected in the young Avatar and encourages her to start her journey to Republic City.
 
Most of the personality tropes [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)/Team Avatar/Characters|she had in the first series]] still apply.
----
* [[Braids, Beads, and Buckskins]]: Wears the beaded bun and braids [[Hairstyle Inertia|of her youth]], and a large, patterned parka.
Line 58:
Later became the Republic City representative for the Southern Water Tribe and it's chairman.
 
Most of the personality tropes [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)/Team Avatar/Characters|he had in the first series]] still apply.
----
* [[Ambadassador]]: Is the representative of the Southern Water Tribe, and likely didn't lose any badassery even after twenty or so years.
Line 76:
Creator of metalbending and founder of the Republic City police force. Though blind from birth, she used earthbending to sense the world around her, which led to the ability to bend metal--something earthbenders had never been able to do before. Fought alongside Avatar Aang and his companions to end the Hundred Years War. Mother of Lin Beifong, the current Chief of Police.
 
Most of the personality tropes [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)/Team Avatar/Characters|she had in the first series]] still apply.
----
* [[Badass in Distress]]: Like the rest of the courtroom in the flashback when Yakone {{spoiler|breaks out the bloodbending. He even forces her to levitate over to him and unlock his restraints with said bloodbending; keep in mind that Toph is ''blind'', and can only perceive the world when her feet are touching the ground.}}
* [[Da Chief]]: The founder and first chief of the metalbending police.
* [[Defiant to Thethe End]]: {{spoiler|Being bloodbended}} doesn't stop her from giving Yakone a nasty stare ([[Rule of Cool|despite being blind]])... {{spoiler|Until he snaps her unconscious.}}
* [[Giving Someone the Pointer Finger]]: Toph does this to Yakone (and has [[Off-Model|six fingers]]).
* [[Hairstyle Inertia]]: Keeps the same hairstyle as she did as a youth.
Line 86:
* [[The Nicknamer]]: Even after twenty eight years, she still calls Aang "Twinkle Toes".
* [[Our Founder]]: Has a solid gold statue of her in front of Republic City's police headquarters.
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: The original series always used "Bei Fong", but ''The Legend of Korra'' has switched to "Beifong".
* [[Whip It Good]]: Her older armor uses a hip-mounted spool instead of the back-mounted version modern metalbenders use.
<!-- %%It is currently unknown if Toph is deceased or not, please do not add PosthumousCharacter until it is confirmed or Jossed. -->
Line 98:
During his reign as Fire Lord, Zuko helped create the Republic. He shared the Fire Nation's advanced technology with the rest of the world. Zuko stepped down from the throne three years ago at age 84, and his daughter is now Fire Lord. He is currently a wandering ambassador for peace and balance. He is honored in Republic City with a large statue in front of Central City Station.
 
Most of the personality tropes [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)/The Fire Nation/Characters|he had in the first series]] still apply.
----
* [[All There in the Manual]]: He hasn't appeared in the series himself yet; most of this information comes from side materials.
