Forum:Mei

Character Name: Mei

Bender Type: Non

Age:17

Personality:

Mei is intelligent, creative, kind, and a bit rebellious. She acts like she cares more about herself than she does about any others, but that's a lie. She does care. So much that she wouldn't really mind getting in a fight for a stranger. But she's also afraid of getting hurt. She feels like it's not worth it. Close relationships aren't really her thing. When she gets too close to somebody, though, she tends to shut down and just stay alone for a while. She barely talks. She only moves to get food or take a shower. This usually pisses people off, and she never really cared.

History: Her father, Ginkaku, was the head of a gang in a city near the border of the Fire Nation. He was a non bender. Her mother died in her childbirth. She has an older brother, who was favored by their father. He was also the only fire bender of the family. Her brother was raised to head the gang after their father died. He did die, when Mei was fifteen. Yet her brother saw no use for her any more. Even though Mei wanted to try to help, he decided to get rid of her.

He sent her off in a mission alone, where she was told she'd be a hero when she returned- all she had to do was spy on some rival gangs. Her brother, though, had told the rival gang, and payed him to kill her. She was ambushed, and though she tried to fight back, she was soon on the ground with a few broken ribs and a bleeding lip, being kicked repeatedly, the rival gang leader approached. He revealed that her brother set her up, and that he wanted her dead. But, the rival gang leader decided it'd be more fun to spite the brother and let her live. As long as she never returned. After that, they continued beating her up, and soon they were gone, and she was unconscious. She was deemed dead, as she never returned to her hometown, being too hurt by her brother's actions.

She traveled on her own for a while, travelling from the fire nation, to the earth nation, and water as well. It was a while until she found a group that she deemed appropriate. They treated her rather well, and they had a plan. They were going to the Republic city. It took a few years. At the age of seventeen, she arrived to the City, hoping for a new life.
