a firebender from a multicultural family who grew up on the streets of Republic City as an orphan with his younger brother, Bolin. I always wore his signature red scarf that was once my father's, who was murdered along with my mother when I was a boy. I formed a pro-bending team with my brother and Hasook and aspired for his new career to bring him fame and fortune. His aspirations changed, however, when he met Avatar Korra, who joined the team to replace Hasook and became a loyal friend.[5] Mako, with the help of his teammates, was able to lead the team to second place in the championship. After the tournament's conclusion, I joined Korra in her efforts to stop the Equalists.
