[Tenebrous]

Name:


“Hey! The name's Yang Branwen! Nice to meetcha!”


Gender:


“Ya couldn’t tell?! I’m a guy ya know?”


Place of Origin:


“Straight outta the Fire Nation!”


Important Relations:


“Dunno. Oh wait, I do have this uncle in the army. I forgot what rank he was. Oops. Ah well, the old man’s cray cray anyways, he probably doesn’t hold a high ranking position.”


Status:


“I’m just an average citizen… Well, I’ve had my fair share of breaking the law… Don’t tell anyone! I just did some graffiti work and everyone went crazy on me! Jeez, do these people even appreciate art?!”


Element:


“I want my fire to burn brighter than the sun!”


Level of Bending Expertise:


“Er… Didn’t have proper training… So.. I guess I’m about as average as you can get?”


Favored Bender Abilities:


Although his fire bending skills are about as average as anyone can get, he displays talent in lightning generation and redirection. However, he had no mentor unleash his potential. Anything that was considered Master Level and above, he could not do. Other than that, he has no favourite moves.


Personality:


The Good


Straight forward | Unyielding | Tactical | Energetic | Confident | Optimistic


Yang is the kind of person who teaches someone how to swim by pushing them in the water. This speaks volumes about how he approaches most things in life. He frequently making sarcastic comments and jokes even in the heat of battle and often taking combat and hostile situations extremely lightly, particularly when faced with foes he knows he can beat easily and who don't pose a threat to him. However, he does take combat very seriously when he deems his opponent a threat or if he is sufficiently angered. He likes to play safe. Using tactical methods to win a fight instead of charging in blindly without any plan.


The Bad


Reckless/Careless | Punny | Tends to be Overconfident | Sore Loser | Mocking | Stubborn


His anger is one of his main assets in battle. However, he tries to avoid fueling his fire with hate and anger. If he does lose his composure, all rational thoughts would be thrown out the window as Yang would engage in an overly aggressive fighting style. It would be very difficult to calm him down when he is in such a state. He is not a very gracious winner when it comes to battling the enemy, often mocking and taunting them when he deems that they are weak. He's somewhat of a sore loser. He hates losing more than anything, even if he knows the opponent is out of his league. Yang makes puns and seems to enjoy it even though not many do.


Biography:


“So.. other than getting chased by the police force and somehow managing to get away… Sure! I’ll tell you my past!”


His father was a master of swordplay, but he was no bender. His mother, however, was a fire bender. Yang would come home from school and start training with his mother. After learning the basics of fire bending, his father decided to teach Yang his own style of sword fighting. If Yang wasn't training or doing homework, he can be found parkouring across roofs. Other than that, his past is incredibly mundane. He had loving parents that he never wants to lose and he had his small group of friends. However, where there is light, darkness is not too far. His family had trouble getting money. Both parents were working very hard to make ends meet. There was this point in time, his father had to sell his heirloom away to get quick money. His father fell into depression. Which only made their situation worse. It came to a point where even his parents had to send him to his uncle, Qrow Branwen.


Notable Possessions:

Fighting style: He uses a long sword Jian and a short sword Jian. By using two swords of different lengths, he can create an "illusion", tricking his enemy into misjudging the length of the swords. In contrast with using his bending abilities, he mainly does a "hit and run" technique with his dual swords.

Biography: Remi grew up with the air nomads at the Western Air Temple, training under them for airbending. His family were regular airbenders. He was relatively normal, keeping to himself and a few other friends, and his Flying Bison, Obo, and Winged Lemur, Po. He was a skilled airbender nonetheless. As he kept training non-stop during his years, he eventually developed a mindset independent from the airbender standards. The head Air Nomads eventually found out that he didn't want to stay, and start his own group of airbenders, through his now-former friends. Before he could recruit anybody, they banished him in secret, so no one would find out. Not even his parents. He didn't like the strictness of the Air Nomad's rules, despite growing up in it. So, at age 13, he was banished with his 2 true friends: Obo and Po. Together, they wandered for 3 years, looking at the world as much as they can. Remi found that wandering alone was more enjoyable; his 2 friends enough company. He met many people on his travels, and continued training his airbending, in an even more intense frequency than previously. He wanted to show to traditional airbenders that they don't need to stick to the heritage of the airbenders. Of course, during his travels, he's run into some trouble, but he's overcome many challenges. So, now, he still wanders, going wherever the wind takes him.

Rena was born the 5th child in a family of six as the only girl in the family.

Her mother Melody was a very talented Earth Bender who had fallen in love with the eccentric man on a job protecting him and his one inventions to be shown off to the ruler of the Earth Kingdom. She grew up isolated from the world living on a small isle off the coast of the Earth Kingdom.


Rena had found herself often teased by her brothers. Being the only girl and lacking bending, Rena had found her own way to combat her brothers, taking on to their little 'games' rather then sitting on the sidelines. She grew to become very agile, learning to navigate through the earth her brothers would lift up, only amplified by her active nature leaving the girl unable to simply sit down very often. It was in part through one of the various 'teachers' her parents had come to teach the family unique tricks (some less 'bogus then others) she learned about pressure points and adapted the style used for healing to instead disable anyone who stood in her way.

  Status
  
  
  Son to a once famous Earth Kingdom general who was discharged.
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Combat Abilities:
  
  
  Neither strong nor swift, Manik's style of fighting is focused around patiently reading movements and waiting for his opponent to come to him. Using very few strikes, Manik waits for an opening or his opponent to attack, then counters with the intention of either knocking them down or completely disabling them with a grapple or hold, most commonly by dislocating or breaking of the wrist. While very effective against those not expecting it, he has absolutely zero options against a bender who chooses to use their range advantage.
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Personality:
  
  
  Harsh, stuck up, and snobbish, Manik isn't known as the most pleasant person to be around. His intelligence is easily his greatest strength, and if one thing's for sure it's that he'll makes certain that everyone around him knows this as well. Manik loves learning new things and furthering his knowledge of the world, and when coming upon an exciting discovery he may even loose his cool exterior for a moment. He'll constantly correct someone if they're wrong, berate them if they make a mistake, and chime in with pointless facts and information that serves no other purpose than to pad his ego. Likewise, showing any sign of frailty just opens one up to his verbal bullying, whether they've done anything to earn his ridicule or not. This attitude of his is due to his want to feel superior. He craves others to notice his achievements, and putting down others proves to himself he's better than them.
  
  
  However, while he has a sharp tongue and isn't afraid to abuse it, Manik himself isn't very good at receiving the same abuse, even if it's meant as a simple jest. In fact, his temper is actually quite short, and when provoked he'll blow up someone like nobodies business. Still, being the smart and cowardly person that he is, he knows better than to pick loosing battles. Even when angry he can often contain his rage to make the smart choice of backing down if need be. Of course, if he knows he can come out on top then he'll provoke and prod as much as possible. Otherwise he'll often play mind games and planning to make the confrontation one-sided in his favor. In fact, Manik is quite talented at making himself appear leagues above where he actually is in terms of skill.
  
  
  Still, say what you may about his attitude, Manik is an extremely diligent worker and always has been, and when he has his mind set to something he'll put his heart and soul into it. Of course, he'll still make excuses if he fails and despises working with others, but that's just who he is. In fact, he greatly values respect and is always trying to earn it, and as such is willing to give it if someone shows their will and tenacity. This leads into his discrimination and hatred of benders. To him, no amount of work is enough as he believes that they've been gifted with something that gives them an inherent advantage and haven't had to work as hard as him.
  
  
  Bio:
  
  
  Manik was born as a single child from his mother Avani who was a common citizen and his father, Gopan Shiel, who was more commonly known as a famous general on the front lines. During preparations for a battle with the fire nation Gopan had received word that his wife was pregnant with their first child sending his thoughts into a muddled mess. Eventually things took a turn for the worse, and Gopan made the selfish decision to abandon his troops so he could have a chance to live and see his family and son. The Earth Kingdom lost this battle, and thus Gopan was shunned and discharged.
  
  
  Growing up, Manik always had a mixed opinion for his father. On one hand, Gopan was extremely wise and intelligent. Often regaling the boy with grand tales and history, his knowledge and wit couldn't be contested. However, after suffering the humiliation of being kicked out of the army after accomplishing so much, he'd fallen from grace and was a shell of his former self. He'd let the words get the better of him and couldn't even get himself to help raise his own son. He'd often mope and talk about how pathetic he was, and after hearing it so often Manik began to believe his fathers words and aimed to overcome the stigma that was now attached to his family name.
  
  
  Of course, this wasn't easy. Where he grew up there was a major focus on martial arts, yet Manik wasn't as skilled or gifted as many of the other's his age. So, instead of trying to catch up when he knew it was nearly impossible, he chose to focus on refining his already brilliant mind. Studying every book in the village and listening to every old man with hours of tales that they swore would be 'quick stories', Manik easily outshone every one of his peers, and made damn sure to flaunt his brains. This was reaffirming he was worth something and better than everyone who'd thought less of him for his father's action, so there was no way anyone would forget. Manik wasn't done there though. He still fell behind others when it came to combat, so to remedy this Manik began to put together a style that would counter that which was taught in his village. While still in its rough stages, he showed a great jump in success and once again shut up those who tried to shun him. Still, despite his vast improvements. Manik focused most of his time learning about the world around him. He'd gained a love for knowledge and the intricacies of the world. Making maps, creating theories for unsolved mysteries, and much more was done in an attempt to fill his already vast mind.
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Possessions:
  
  
  A notebook with various facts and theories jotted down.
  
  
  Other Notes:
  
  
  Manik has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of history as well as geography, though to a much lesser extent due to his only knowledge of such being from books and maps.

Level of Bending Expertise: Shi is below average, at best, when it comes to earthbending. She knows the basics and has a decent grasp of the fundamentals of it, but finds that she is still quite lacking. Her problem comes with the fact that she spent the better half of her life travelling the Si Wong Desert. Because of this, her fighting style has adapted to her environment, effectively hindering her ability to easily work with more solid earth. She is much more proficient in sandbending, which in her tribe even uses a different style of fighting than regular earthbending. Combining the style of the Shanxi Praying Mantis and Zui Quan, Shi and her tribe are known as some of the most capable sandbenders in the Desert.


Favored Bender Abilities: Despite her lackluster talent in earthbending, Shi has a fascination with seamlessly hardening and softening the earth around her. She uses this ability frequently, whether it be necessary to solidify the sand beneath her feet for better grip in her sandy home, or subduing enemies on solid ground by effectively making the ground beneath them turn into quicksand. She also has a love-hate relationship with the sand spout ability, as it's a favorite of hers but finds it gets old pretty quick when you have to do it everyday as a mode of transportation.

Personality: Shi is a fun loving girl who doesn't know what it means to relax. Much like the sands of her home, she can never be still and finds herself always shifting. Whether that means her life, moving from place to place, or her focus never being on one thing, she loathes being idle. Quite a sly girl, she has a bit of a silver-tongue and knows how to talk, and sometimes bluff, her way out of most situations. Naturally, being guilt-prone, she usually tries to avoid confrontation, resorting to it only if her sweet talking fails her. However, she is far from meek. Once challenged, there's pretty much no stopping her. If you set her off, she can be as about as unpredictable as a sandstorm; her rage will take over and she'll do whatever it takes to destroy you, despite how guilty she'll likely feel about it later.


Biography: Shi grew up in a family of five, as the youngest daughter of two Earth Kingdom citizens. Her mother, Kun, was a merchant of Misty Palms Oasis and her father, Lin, was but a common foot soldier of the Earth Kingdom Army. Her parents met in Misty Palms Oasis, where Kun sold Lin an embarrassing ointment, and fell in love. They figured it poetic that they should start a family where their lives first crossed paths. Before Shi, they had two children together, Yu and Da.


Being the youngest, Shi grew up in her elder siblings' shadows. Before she had even reached the age of 6, both Da and Yu were showing great talent in earthbending. Which was only natural, as her parents informed, since they came from a line of great earthbenders on their mother's side. So, of course she was constantly compared to her brother and sister by everyone around her. This caused her to develop an uncanny competitive streak for a while, where she worked to the point of exhaustion to become the best earthbender the world had ever known. Night and day she practiced her bending, with that single goal in mind. By the age of 9, despite being better than most her age, she gave up. It wasn't out of defeat or hopelessness, it was simply for the fact that after making noticeable progress and realizing she would never be able to catch up to Da and Yu, she finally accepted her fate. It didn't help that in that same year, Yu took apprenticeship to a renowned Earthbender and Da followed in their father's footsteps and joined the army, much to their parents' delight.


Finding life boring without siblings to bother or a goal to work towards, Shi developed quite the sticky-hands, which caused her and her parents lots of trouble. Her affinity towards the wrong side of the law eventually caused a rift in her relationship with her parents. So much so that she was prone to running away and not returning home for days on end. It got to the point that when her maternal Uncle, a sandbender of the Si Wong Desert with a penchant for alcohol, visited on her 10th birthday to drop off her gift...well, he ended up with his niece in his care the day after. Shi spent the next seven years as a member of the sandbending Piao Tribe in the Desert, headed by her Uncle whom she had developed a fatherly bond with. Through him she learned the art of sandbending, which she instantly took to, and even hand-to-hand combat, fighting in the styles of Shanxi Praying Mantis and Zui Quan.




Notable Possessions: An emerald gold ring gifted to her by her Uncle, and a pair of goggles which members of the Sandbending Tribes use to protect their eyes from both the sun and the sand.


Possible Spirit Animal: N/A


Other Notes: Has very little contact with her family aside from her Uncle.
