Nickname: Kali

Petal (Zuko; eventually)

Little Flower (Iroh; eventually)

Title: The Last Nature-Bender


Age: 17/18/19

- Given her history, the exact date and age for Kali are unknown. She was been with Raya for five years, and it is thought she was taken by her first slaver at five or six. Kali went through a fair few owners between the first and the Raya. (Raya chose the day she bought Kali for Kali's birthday, as many of Kali's owners have done in the past so it is possible that they could be up to a year off in either direction) In my mind, she's 18.

Bio:

Little is known by Kali about her past or where she came from. Once upon a time, nature-benders were a peaceful and largely compassionate people, until the beginning of the 100-year war in which they were nearly all wiped out by the Fire Nation for being deemed too dangerous and powerful. A small group survived and escaped the initial attack on their land, living as nomads. Though not much is known of these nomads, who came to occupy the many forested areas across the world, it is known that Kali was born to one group of nomads.

Sometime after her birth, the Fire Nation spared no one when they attacked. Kali survived by laying under her mother's body until she was found by a passing slaver. Kali was likely around five or six when this happened, going off the notes inside of her instruction manual. She has no memories of what happened, and her mind has likely protected her from it, though she occasionally has nightmares regarding it.

Kali passed through a number of slavers for many years until she was bought by Raya, an ageing grey-haired woman who ran a whorehouse/brothel in a small, but popular, town. Kali was initially too young to be one of the girls that worked there, she was raised as Raya's 'daughter', though Raya often used Kali's abilities for her own gain.

When Kali seemed to come of age, an auction was set up by Raya, basically selling off her virginity to the highest bidder. Raya was often threatened by the Fire Nation, that Kali would be saved for a 'high ranking' individual and that if Kali wasn't reserved and the auction called off , then bad things would happen. The auction went ahead anyway, and was won by an individual not associated with the Fire Nation. Mysteriously, the night following the auction saw that individual assassinated and the brothel was burned to the ground.
