Comment/Other:
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Character Type: Earthbender
Appearance:
Kane has chestnut brown hair, that isn't curly, but is quite long, and, therefore, sort of curls at the ends. His eyes are a shade of dark green. His skin is tanned, with a no freckles. He stands at about 5'9, but his broad shoulders make him seem taller.Personality:
Overall, Kane is very attractive. He normally can be seen wearing the green of his nation. He also is often sweaty because he is constantly training and practicing his earthbending.
Kane is hard-working and focused, although he is known to occasionally be distracted by girls, whom he respects. Some people expect him to be a bit of a thug, because he acts tough, but he's actually quite intelligent. His parents are professors at Ba Sing Se University. Growing up in the Upper Ring, he had manners, but chooses not to use them. He can be very rude, but usually only to the people he fights against. He loves earthbending and tries to use it whenever he can.History:
Most of the time, Kane enjoys his life. He's a pretty average teenage boy, and he's relatively happy. But, then again, he's a teenager, so he has to have some problems and ways of coping with them.
His parents never really approved of his career choice, saying it wasn't practical, and, eventually, he wouldn't be able to compete anymore. His parents sometimes come down very hard on Kane, and he is known to get very aggressive and shout very loud.
Another thing is that Kane can be somewhat egotistical. All of his fame has sort of gotten to him, and he really enjoys the attention and star treatment he gets. He tries to stay grounded, but he finds himself acting more and more dramatic and spoiled. He hates it, and tries to stop.
Kane's parents were both very inquisitive, intelligent people. They met because they both teach at Ba Sing Se University, and live in the Upper Ring, where all of the most respected people live. They married when Kane's mother was 32 and his father was 39. A year later, Kane was born.Codeword: Code Correct!
Kane was a spoiled child. Still is, just a little bit. He always was given what he wanted, including earthbending lessons when he turned four. That was when he discovered his true passion.
Earthbending was a way for Kane to cope with his high-strung, overprotective parents. He liked that he could hit things around and take out his frustration on his element by being rough.
By the age of seven, he started competing in junior competitions, and soon proved that he was far above the local level. Then he went to competitions for the entire city, where he found he was more evenly matched, although still nearer to the top of the competition.
When he turned ten, his parents grudgingly invested in a private trainer. Kane began competing in the tournament held annually for young earthbenders.
He trains primarily in Ba Sing Se, but also travels quite a bit. He's sort of a hometown hero, and he's a well-known earthbender. He was training for a world-wide bending competition when the war began.
Comment/Other:
I had an idea for a tournament thing...it was totally based off the Olympics, but it was sweet.
