Zone

Name: Zone

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Heritage: Fire Nation

Bender: Fire Bender

Home: Republic City

Fighting Style: Zone likes to have a quick and precise fighting style, throwing fast jabs and kicks backed by dangerous fire. His preference is close range fighting, basing his fire bending around his fighting style rather than basing his fighting style off of his firebending.

Personality: Zone is sometimes arrogant and egotistical., which leads to a slightly sarcastic and condescending personality. He will often view himself over others, but he is not limited to this perspective, as he acknowledges that there are people that surpass him in intellect, ability, and appearance. Although Zone is a "pure blood" Fire Nation descendant, his arrogance does not stem from that fact. He has no prejudice with any members of the other nations and bending types.

He is not much of a social person, and will make no attempts at making conversation. He does have compassion and empathy for his friends, although at a lesser level than others. He will often think of himself before others, but is ultimately loyal and proud and won't sacrifice others in his place. He is more of an anti-hero rather than a protagonist or an antagonist.

Appearance: Zone has sharp, yellow eyes and raven black hair, which comes from his Fire Nation heritage. As far as his heritage tree shows, he is a full blooded Fire Nation descendant. He is about five feet tall and ten inches. He has an athletic muscular build, more similar to a runner or swimmer rather than a football player. He is often see wearing a tan and red-stripped cloak over a red hooded jacket, black pants, gloves, and a large belt, with the hood up on his head. He is also seen wearing a more casual look, which includes a white dress shirt, a black vest, black pants, and a belt.

Strengths: Zone is a calm and collected under even the most pressured and stressed situations, although not all (just most). He is also a strategist and has an analytical eye. With these attributes, he is able to remain calm in the heat of battle and form a quick strategy. Among the physical aspects, he is quick and agile, with excellent reaction time.

Weaknesses: As said before, Zone does not have a high understanding of empathy and compassion. His arrogance can offend people, and he can fail to see this offense and what he has done wrong. This sometimes causes alienation from friends and others. While Zone lacks the desire to be social, he does not wish to be lonely. While he is calm most of the time, in certain situations, he will lose his cool and lose self control, forgetting tactics and fighting styles, and just full out throwing a fit with fire. He loathes being showed up and beaten. When Zone strategizes, he plans for the best possible outcome, meaning the wellness of any allies is not always a priority. Also mentioned previously, Zone does not like fighting in a long distance fight, meaning that he is less apt in long distant fights. He focuses most of his fighting skills into close ranging, making his long range tactics lacking.

History: Zone was born in a lower upperclass family. While he wasn't filthy rich, he did get everything he wanted. Due to his high status, he gained a belief that he was better than most people. His parents were there, but they weren't around. His dad was often away at work, while his mom was doing something with the poolboy. Due to this, Zone never really cared for family. His parents enrolled him in a private academy to study both academics and Fire bending. It was a multibending academy, and Zone saw different types of bending and people. This quickly extinguished any prior existing prejudices about bending, as Zone saw it that while he could bend fire, he could not bend air, earth, or water. He did not inferior, as he believed that it did not depend on what one could bend, but how one could bend. It didn't matter what somebody could bend, it mattered on how well he or she bended. Other than that, Zone lived a pretty average childhood. He didn't have many friends, but he had enough. His lacked many ambitions, except one that was being the strongest firebender, but that wasn't his first priority. He felt no desire in achieving anything, because he didn't believe it mattered. Everything ended in oblivion, be it achievements, lives, or history. Nothing was forever, so why act like it was?

Same issue with Demetri's character.

You're fast, strong, and intelligent while only having one physical weakness to compensate. Yours however revolves around long distance opposed to Demetri's defense.

I hope my point though not stated outright was understood.

Changed.

Approved.
