Mako was orphaned at the age of eight when his parents were killed by a fire bender. The scarf he wears was once his fathers. His only family he had left was his brother Bolin. Mako quickly took charge and did his best to care for Bolin and help them survive on the streets. Due to His bending abilities and those of Bolin, they were taken in to perform in the Pro-bending Tournaments. After a while Mako eventually formed and became captain of the Fire Ferrets.

When Mako first met Korra, they were not friends at first sight. In fact he thought Korra was one of Bolin’s fangirls. But when he needed her most Korra stepped up to the plate and entered the Pro-bending Tournament as a Water Bender. At first he was annoyed, but she eventually helped them get the win. From that point on Mako has had a little more respect for her and she became a part of the team.

Mako’s love life is a little more difficult. But I will save that story for the TV series (watch it and you will understand hahaha) Mako is surely a complicated character with a horrible past, but it looks to me that he will have a bright future.

A banished prince stuck in a teenage body gives you a very grumpy and determined character to get his honor back and reclaim his place as the next Fire Lord. Although to accomplish these tasks Zuko must first capture the avatar. For much of the series, his whole goal in life is just that.
Throughout his quest he shows just how skilled he is in fire bending; the main show of skill was when he took down admiral Zhao in an Agni Kai.

Eventually Zuko returns home and is accepted back into the royal family where he learns his true destiny. After redirecting the Fire Lords lightning attack, Zuko leaves his father hiding underground to seek out the Avatar and join his crew. He decides he will be the Avatar’s Fire Bending teacher.

As the grandson to Avatar Roku and Fire Lord Sozin, Zuko’s entire life has been the battle between good and evil. According to Zuko’s Uncle Iroh, this struggle will be a part of Zuko’s life, but Zuko needs to seek balance.

Having a set of Avatar the Last Airbender Paper Toys is not complete without Zuko. He was an enemy to become a friend. This figure below is based on the character of Zuko in book three.

“The Blind Bandit” is the biggest, strongest Earth bender of all time. Actually she is a little girl who is blind. She can see everything around her with her earth bending, better than those who see with their eyes. The show often gives the viewer a scene depicting what Toph sees. Her Earth bending is so great that she invents metal bending.

She is a hard headed girl who usually wants her way. Stubborn to the core, she is unmovable like a rock. She becomes Avatar Aang’s Earth Bending Teacher, which he has trouble with at first. In fact, even Katara had trouble with Toph at first. But they all do figure out how to get along (mostly).

The plucky comic relief is now a cubeecraft. Sokka may not be a bender but he does turn out to be a wonderful warrior. He becomes skilled in the art of the sword and is very skilled with the boomerang. His constant hunger and weird quotes make him the funny character in Team Avatar. Being the older brother he tries to direct where the team should go, but more times than not he is voted down or ignored.

Although he may be a very funny character and often clumsy, he does have his moments of serious communication with the other team members. He speaks comfort to Katara and Toph and shares his feelings with Zuko.

The series of Avatar the Last Airbender cubeecrafts introduces Avatar Aang the main member of the “BoomerAang Gang”, or better known as “Team Avatar”. A very spunky kid who enjoy laughing and messing around. He does grow and evolve as the story continues, but I am sure at the end of the three book series he would still love to Penguin Sled.

Before the Legend of Korra there was Avatar The Last Airbender, the beginning of the epic cartoon series. It is by far one of my favorite cartoon series out there. I like it because of the wonderful character development, art and story lines. They all have back stories that help you really feel for the characters and understand where they came from. Even the “bad guys” have enough development to make them feel as if they were something more than a cliché.

My favorite bending is Water bending. It is the element of change and can be used almost anywhere. For the exceptional benders it can be used to become an excellent healer or used to become a Blood Bender (Which Katara reluctantly learns how to use). .
