Yara

Name: Yara

Bender Type: Air-Bender

Age: 18

Parents: Tenpa and Lama

Appearance: Yara

Personality: Yara is a very headstrong girl, but she likes to go with the flow of things. Although she is head strong, she is a quiet girl, preferring to listen and learn instead of drawing attention to herself. She cares not for the politics of the world, so she tries to stay out of anyone's way, and will only help if someone is in dire need.

History:  Yara was born in the Western Air Temple. Growing up Yara with her brother Chaya, Yara was one of the favorite children of the monks. She showed the ability to Air-Bend at about the age of four, but she was almost five. She was a quiet kid and never caused trouble, always the outsider with kids her age.

Her brother was always in her shadow, and she never liked that. She loved her brother and she tried to help him but he always refused. She noticed him falling farther behind in their studies, but she knew she could do nothing to help him. She kept at her own studies and practices, and this just furthered the gap between them.

After one of the bending tests, Chaya got into trouble and killed a boy because he was bullying him. Yara knew that he had been bullied in the past, and this seemed to be his last straw. He was banished from the temple. Yara knew he needed someone by him so she too turned her back on the temple to join him in Republic City.
