Name: Kaiya

Age: 19

Bender Type: Air Bender

Appearance: Sylphy from Amagi Brilliant Park

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Personality: Though she’s a very kind person, Kaiya is rebellious and free spirited. Due to her personality, that has gotten her in trouble many times, labeling her as a ‘trouble maker’. Even with her rebellious nature, Kaiya has been taught by Sakura to act motherly towards those who are close to her. Kaiya is very much the opposite of her twin brother Kotaro. While he has a short temper, she is more likely to be the calm one. She also is the most reasonable one out of the two.

Being free spirited means that Kaiya likes being who she wants when she wants. She has this way of thinking that nobody should be able to boss somebody around and tell them to make the right decisions and all. This is why she kept getting herself into so much trouble. Kaiya also doesn’t know when she should limit her free spirited self because it seems as if she can’t contain it and it’s flying all over the place like her free spirit are her airbending powers.

History: Yao and Sakura had been married for a very long time. Though their marriage had been unstable for many reasons. It was the fact that the two didn’t really love each other any more and their marriage was based off of greed and lust. But their marriage did have meaning once. Which was a long time ago, their passion having long since faded. The couple lived in Ba Sing Se in the middle ring, having quite a decent life. But one day, it all changed when Yao was caught cheating on Sakura with another woman much more well known than her and much richer than her as well. But it has always been this way, meaning it was no surprise to Sakura. The man clearly slept with other women, though it was very clear that the airbender was much more beautiful than his little bed buddies. She was left angry, jealous and quite embarrassed. Sakura wanted nothing to do with him anymore and because of that she resolved to taking one of their children with her: Kaiya. The other twin they had, Kotaro, was left behind with Yao to take care of.

The poor twins were separated from the tender age of two, so remembering each other was near impossible. As his ex-wife fled back home to Zaofu, Yao was quick to move on. His lover Sayana was younger, richer and just a complete upgrade. The earthbender had opted for Kotaro to grow up to be successful, strong and disciplined. His life had many rules and trials, having been taught to do what he was told and that hard work was the only way to live well. Even while Yao was spending most of his time with his new wife Sayana, he had time to teach his son earthbending from the day he began causing pebbles to float when he was 6.

Meanwhile Kaiya was being raised by Sakura, who loved and cared for her very much. Sakura grew protective of Kaiya, making sure the child didn’t get herself into any kind of trouble. But because of Sakura’s favoritism of her ‘only’ child, Kaiya took advantage of that, getting whatever she wants and doing whatever she wanted. At age 6 she started learning airbending from her mother after she began floating in her room.

As Kotaro grew into his teenage years, he excelled in many areas. His bending was top notch and his grades were quite high. Kotaro was an avid reader, history buff and all around good student. He grew to be very level headed, determined and responsible. He didn’t have many friends growing up since so many of them were simply messing around while he wanted to work, work and work.

Kaiya was the exact opposite of Kotaro. She was very outgoing and had friends of all kind. Though she did do well in school, she often spent her free time socializing and going to parties rather than studying and trying her best to maintain her grades. The girl was typically lazy and often copied homework and cheated off her friends to get by. But airbending was the only thing she was focused on because her mother was the one teaching that very subject.

His relationship with his father was complicated. Neither of them had much time for each other. Kotaro was left with a few half siblings from his mother in law and Yao was more focused on his younger spawn. The earthbender had often babysat when his parents were out, another reason why he had to grow up quickly. But Yao was still very proud of his first born, having refused to think about the daughter he no longer had. Kotaro knew he had a sister, but he was far too young to remember her name, how she looked or anything. Yao wasn’t of much help since he refused to tell him much of anything and Sayana was ordered to remain tightlipped as well.

When Kaiya figured out she had a twin brother, she was very happy but also sad that they were apart from each other. Her mother often told her stories about what the twins did as children but since they were so young, she didn’t remember any of it. Kaiya made it her life goal to find her twin. Sakura though intends to keep the two away due to the fact that Kotaro is being raised by Yao so she didn’t mention a specific name to Kaiya.

After some time, Kotaro completely gave up. His father had wiped all evidence of Kaiya’s existence. He hated her due to his petty grudge against her mother, Sakura had taken a large sum of Yao’s money when she left. At the age of 17, Kotaro got a scholarship to a well off school in Republic City and his family had no issues with letting him go. It had been a good two years since he moved. Upon arrival, Yao took an interest in the competitive sport known as Probending. While still getting checks from his father, Kotaro lives in the city as a probender and college student.

Once Sakura realized that Kaiya has been sneaking out of the house to hang out with her friends, there were curfew rules set up to make sure she doesn’t go out when she wasn’t supposed to. But Kaiya was 17 at this point and it seemed ridiculous to her to have curfews so she kept disobeying her mother’s rules. Eventually, they fought about that amongst other things such as where her twin was and Kaiya wanting to be an independent person. Because of all of this arguing, Kaiya, after taking some yuans out of Sakura’s bank account, left to go live in Republic City.
