[shadow=red,left,300]
Full Name:San Te
Age:20
Affiliation: Makapu Village traveled to Fire Nation.
Bending: non-Bender
Appearance: San Te is average in his height; measuring at 5'8. His build is not imposing which for him is ideal. He prefers his build to be less memorable and favors flexibility and sinewy muscles over hard. His slight build belies a strength that surprises people when in action. He prefers to keep his hair short as long hair gets hard to hide. From what exactly? Remains to be seen for everyone. He prefers to wear his diplomat robes as the give him more room.
Personality: San Te's personality is a split one. He doesn't suffer from two personae living inside him. But he puts on a lot of masks. One is the fire nation diplomat who travels but looks to lead a sedentary life style. One is that of a person who had led a life of hardship and wants to help make sure no one suffers the way he had. The final is one that has a deep connection to the fire Nation and he uses it not just a means to hide himself but as a means to show people that they don't have to worry about the world if one person can take it on.
Family: Lin Mae (Mother/Deceased), Lee Long (Unknown to San Te/Father/Presumed deceased.)
History: San Te grew up in the country side of the Earth Nation just outside Makapu Village. Though living in close distance to the town he rarely made visits there as the villagers did not accept him or his mother as his father was a soldier for the Fire Nation military, and many still harbored feelings of resentment towards the fire nation. It is because of that resentment San Te's mother and he had a povershed living and he was forced from a young age to learn how to hide which he quickly became adept at.
That did not save his family however as one night while he was away his home and mother were attacked by some of the villages teens and his home. His house had been set a flame with his mother still inside. Earning hiself several scars and burns on his body he had rescued his mother from the burning home. Unfortunately she was already lost. All she had that could be considered her final words was a fire nation military helmet. He didn't know what the helmet was supposed to mean to him but after burying his mother he decided that maybe being what the people hated he might as well give them reason.
This decision led him to the fire nation. His travels were long and along the way he had to have more than just hiding. That need aided him in learning to fight by using Bending styles. Though having no bending of his own he watched the benders and saw applications for their techniques for non-benders which intrigued him. Learning the bending techniques and honing them to his use helped him reach the fire Nation and find an outpost to join, he had found his way and soon realized that just as people hated him in Makapu there was reason hate the Fire Nation soldiers. Despite the time that had passed there were still ranks in the Army that were similar to those of Aang's time. This realization led San to act out against people. Thus earning him notice of a certain Current General who at the time was a young sergeant.Though in the military Disobedience; especially against ones senior officers, despite that san Te and that sergeant had started an acquaintenceship which soon grew into a strong friendship. So strong in fact that when San Te's discharge from the Fire Nation military had took effect The Sergeant used his own influence to secure his friend a job as an apprentice Diplomat; which would soon serve him in more than living.
Time passes and through his travels as a diplomat San te saw pain that he remembered all too well, and with all the influence, power and greatness no one did anything. It built something in San Te. Something that his friend saw and during one conversation It was mentioned that there was a person who did fight for people when they could not. It was also emphasized by the friend looking at a pair of Dao swords.
That conversation inspired San Te. After borrowing a pair of blades and a mas hidden under a bed. San Te began what he would call his crusade. with only one person knowing who he really is.
Other Background: Trained in all bending styles modifying them for non-bender use. Adept in the use of twin Dao swords. Good at sneaking around to the point of almost being invisible. Skilled at playing pai sho.
Current Status: Traveling as a young aspiring Diplomat for the fire-nation.
Likes: Reading, playing the biwa, helping others
Dislikes: Injustice, pain, Fried squirrel-mouse
Strengths: Sense of Justice, Compassion, tactical mind, near master figher.
Weaknesses: Compassion, cold, emotions can get the better of him, prone to going "too far"
Desires: To help all no matter what life they lead.
Make sure no one suffers like he had.
To see that the people of republic city can truly smile.
