Appearance; Akina is a slim cut girl. She has never been over weight and has always tried to look her best physically. She walks barefoot most of the time only resorting to shoes every now and then. She keeps herself clean and thus does not like being dirty. A smudge of dirt on her hand means she needs to find the nearest source of water to clean the smudge. She keeps her clothes clean not wearing them more than once before they are washed unless she needs to wear them again. Though she doesn‘t like to she can remain dirty if necessary. Her hair is green. But it is it‘s own shade.
She likes it long but doesn’t like it in her face constantly so she clips it with her frog hair clip and ties/braids bits of it together with a little thread. Akina‘s eyes are a sad blue. Like what the sky looks like before the storm clouds hit. She is so melancholy that some people find themselves staring into her eyes. He mouth can smile a smile that will rival that of a princess but her eyes will still have the attention of all. She usually wears he white gown but if she knows she will be gliding or traveling, she wears simple grey pants or shorts and a grey form fitting vest. She can usually be spotted with a died black wood glider that his blue wings underneath. She sometimes carries her books in a small pack that she can use when needed.

Overall Personality;Akina is a good soul. She has always done what’s needed and obeyed air bending masters. She helps others and seems to not help herself as much as she needs to. She‘s always making sure young kids are safe and the area they are playing has no lurkers. Akina is also dedicated. She believes in Air being a way of life and letting the north wind taking your trouble with it when it flies by.
She is gentle and quiet but not mean. She just does what she‘s asked to without question and gets it done swiftly. She is sad though. Losing her mother to a random lightning strike when herm other was caught in a storm scarred her. And since her father is only around once a year, being a true Air nomad, she lives on her own.
When she finds herself alone or bored she’ll usually wander to the fields to practice bending and perhaps sit and stare at the flowers. This is one of her favorite past times and one of the only things that will make her truly happy.
History Info
Home Country; The Northern Air Empire
siblings; Sakiko, 24
history;Born on December 21st Akina was not what you describe as a normal child. She left the womb without a single cry. Her eyes were wide and startled but no cries escaped her. She just looked around blindly trying to see. Or so it seemed.
She didn‘t cry after that. She sort of just grew up quietly not speaking until age four and when she did first speak she spoke a full sentence with wisdom beyond it‘s years. “ Mother can you pass the milk?” it made everyone jump because even in her child like voice it sounded wise and understanding. Not whiny or bratty. It was just a question.
When she turned seven she began her air bending training though it didn‘t interest her after she learned how to use it as a scooter, glide, and run faster than others. In all honesty she didn‘t much care to learn how to fight which both concerned and annoyed her parents and brother. When her and her brother were supposed to show up for classes, Akina quietly slipped away and glided to her favorite field a few miles away. It was a small field but she liked it because of it‘s flowers. She spent a lot of time there as a child reading books or picking flowers for the table.
One day after such when Akina was around ten her mother took off to deliver a letter to the Bulwark. Along the way she was attacked and killed by a horde of spirits. Only her staff was found. The entire family went into a depression and Sakiko ran off saying he needed to think. Akina got word later that he moved to the southern Air temple. And then later to the Bulwark to fight spirits Her father left her to go travel the world leaving her alone. So Akina cooked and cleaned and lived by herself. She watched travelers and took care of the local children and picked flowers. She practiced some combat air bending then. She worked on controlling air to hurt others practicing on manikins and trees. After all one had to be prepared for the sprits and the growing rift area. Upgraded. She had it modified to be able to carry a small pack from a hook.
So Akina cooked and cleaned and lived by herself. She watched travelers and took care of the local children and picked flowers. Then Sakiko came back. He was missing an eye and three fingers and was mortally wounded. Akina made herself his nurse and didn‘t eat sleep or stop to rest for weeks. She tended to his wounds and picked fresh herbs for his wounds and flowers for his bedside. When he began to recover he recounted the tails of demons and the battles he‘d been in. But he couldn‘t go back. He had to learn to live with his disability before he even tried to fight. And then he asked her if she could take his place. One downside to Akina. She doesn‘t always know when to say no. So she said yes.
She packed her bags and left her brother the keys to her place and chests and what not. She left with her staff and a small bag with her gown in it. And now she travels to the bulwark in an attempt to help everyone.
