Name: Zen Aun
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Nation: Air Bender from the Fire Nation
Physical Appearance: Zen's long brown hair comes from his mother, as his eyes do as well. His height is from his father who was one to tower over many a monk. Before the Air Nomad robes he was accustomed to the regular robes of a typical Fire Nation orphan. Many bruises and scars from the fights he would amount in a weekly basis have faded but the scars still leave a faint reminder. His build was bought on himself as when he grew up, he wanted to make sure he could take on anything and anyone as the smirk on his face usually tells.
Equipment: A set of knives that used to belong to his mother, being trained in the Fire Nation to use the small blades from a young age made hem his only comfortable form of weapon to use, aside from bending. Encrusted with a small sapphire at the base of the hilt, they resembled his mother's eyes and knew when he had these he would be close to her for once. The blade had a floral pattern running down the blunted edge and gleamed a silver finish. Being lightweight and easy to conceal, he always would gain the upper hand. The leather binding around the hilt had been replaced with cloth with the words 'For Her' scratched into it.
Combat Skills: One paragraph of five sentences for each major fighting skill, including bending. Describe the level of mastery that you have attained with each fighting style and how you were educated.
Talents: One paragraph describing the characters hobbies and/or non combat related skills.
Flaws:One paragraph describing the weaknesses a character has. This can be emotional or physical but must represent a long lasting trouble for the character. More powerful characters are more likely to get approved if they have additional valid flaws. Everyone must have at least one flaw.
History: Zen's father was an odd airbender, he never much liked the idea of remaining away from the world and being removed from it all so he spent time in the fire kingdom as a boy. He watched their culture and there was something about fire that drew him, it was like air bending but so much more upfront.
As his time learning went on, he realized that he would never be a monk. He didn't have the discipline or the focus, and so he left. At 23, he moved to the fire nation in one of the colonies on the edge of town and started a simple life as a farmer. As time went on he made friends and one person who drew him was a young women, her brother came to the farm and would often help him with hard work while she would repair his often broken robes. It took a few years but soon they both came to realise they had fallen for each other and within a year, they were married and Zen was born. The boy had 2 names really, one from each of his parents but it was not a happy beginning.
His mother got infected during childbirth and passed within 5 weeks of her son being born, and his father couldn't face keeping the baby. The boy already looked so much like the women he had loved and to raise him knowing that he had killed his wife, he was too much. Zen was given to a kind woman in the town who ran a sort of orphanage and his father left the village.
So Zen grew up around many other children, he expects this is where his competitive nature comes from and it was hard enough being an airbender in a fire nation group for kids. He became very stubborn over time, refusing to back out of fights or deal with other boys even if he had the answer wrong and knew it would end badly.
As he got older, he was told he would be able to leave the orphanage at 16. So he made the decision to go home, to visit the air temples and learn proper air bending from them and about the culture he came from. However, being bought up in a Fire Nation orphanage, he too, like his father, lacked the discipline and focus. They tried to teach him to commune with the Spirit World but all attempts failed. They tried to show him a more peaceful stance of combat but he was always too aggressive. He left after 2 years of not being able to learn anything and disappointing the elders at every corner.
Personality: One paragraph to describe your characters nature; and how his personality may have been shaped by his skills, talents, flaws, and history.
Pet: You may have one pet provided it is mentioned in detail in your character history. You must write at least a paragraph containing each of these elements- pet appearance, pet talents, pet flaws, and pet personality.
Writing Sample: Write a sample post from the perspective of your character. You may not use posts from another site, this is to show that you can blend all of the elements above into a cohesive character.
