Gone through and rewritten some of the sections to remove grammar mistakes. Character Name: Kyosan

Bender Type: Fire

Age: 15

Appearance: Kyosan is a Caucasian male who is 5'7 with a weight of 136 pounds and has averagely developed muscles on his arms and legs but has a smaller body type. He has brown hair with little brown freckles here and there on his face. He also has jade green eyes and white teeth. He has scars on both knees that have healed up, a clean shaven face and a Jonny Bravo redux style hair cut that's matted down a little bit.

Personality: Kyosan is a very determined young man who loves a good fight. His intelligence is slightly above average and he is kind to good people and his friends but hates cheaters or trouble makers. He's also good at looking at the bright side and tries to help out when he can, but he can have a short temper (that he's working on).

History: Kyosan was born in a small, poor village of fire benders, to a non bending mother who would always try to take care of him, and a fire bending father who worked the majority of the day, but always tried to make time to spend with his wife and son. The village Kyosan lived in had very little business as a result of the rebellion the majority of villagers could barely get enough money to eat. The houses typically had the bare necessities, and were very cramped (especially so for families). There were few luxuries but villagers typically had low grade radios to listen to the news and select radio stations that would play pro bending matches given to the villagers by republic city. The only two main jobs in the village though were heating water and other manual labor like construction.

Kyosan's mother would always watch over him but had to find ways to work from home so the family would have enough money to eat. She would also try to teach him subjects like English, math, and science but she also taught him how to do basic jobs (like cleaning and raking) so that he could also make money for the family. His father would always have to work heating the houses and water of the richer nearby villages, and would typically have to sleep at work as to keep up his energy and his paycheck. But whenever he could he would try to go home and play with his son and talk to his wife. Yet through it all his mother and father would always try to give Kyosan a happy childhood by playing games with him or telling him stories. But when Kyosan turned 13 everything in his life changed. Once Kyosan turned 13 conditions in his village got worse, and his family’s money dwindled. They barely had enough money for food and eventually they lost the house they had lived in for years. So when they lost the house Kyosan ran away as to lighten the load on his mother and father. He traveled the world for about a year learning new things, getting in fights, and trying to survive with the thought that he'd never see his parents again. Eventually Kyosan heard about the citizenship program and saw it as an opportunity to create a better life for himself. As soon as he could he hopped on a citizenship boat and set sails for Republic city.
