Appearance: -Jin is short, only 5 feet, and quite petite. She wears her black hair in a short, ragged style, and has deep blue eyes and darker skin that marks her as part of the Water Tribes, in blood at least. In the right clothes, she looks like a boy. Even in her own clothing, she looks closer to male than female. 

Formal Wear:  Doesn't own any.
Name: Jin Shui / Liu-Hai, The Flying Frog
Age: 18	
Gender: Female 
Bender?: None
Skills (instead of bending style?): Jin is very good at lying and acting, able to fit into many roles with ease, as long as she does enough watching. She is incredibly agile to her small size and low weight, able to run and dart around with ease. She can also jump quite high, which is where one of her nicknames came from. Her hands are small, and she can sneak things from people's pockets without much effort. She is also excellent with sleight of hand tricks and juggling, which is a decent way to distract people in the chase of a larger con.

Jin also has an innate sense for numbers, able to do large equations in her head. Her most untapped gift is in mechanics. She loves to take apart things that she scavenges- old radios, trinkets and toys, and has no issues putting them back together. She would love to get her hands on a real Satomobile and see what makes it work.

Personality: Jin's personality varies depending on the situation. On the 'job', she is focused and driven. When she's trying to con someone, she is charm and smoothness, or slyness, or innocence- whatever is required to get her payday.

When she isn't out stealing, she is generally a quiet sort. She doesn't trust strangers, especially people that she considers 'rich'. If said rich person can prove themselves to be not a snob or a jerk, Jin will try to relax. Her prejudices do cloud her judgement very hard, though. 

History: Jin's parents, Jasmine and Anchor, lived in Republic City. Her father was a waterbender who worked in the police force as a detective, and her mother was a firebender who loved to make and fire her own pottery. They were a happy family, and even happier when baby Jin was born. 

Unfortunately, the Equalist movement's early days spoiled all of that. Jasmine and Anchor were murdered one night in their home, simply for being a happy, mixed-nation bending couple: the anti-thesis of what the Equalists stood for. Five year old Jin escaped the Equalists because they simply didn't know she existed. She awoke during the attack, but didn't come out until her parents were dead. After that, she ran away, into the Republic City night.

Thirteen years of survival have made Jin smart, savvy, and hard-wired for doing whatever it takes to stay alive. She has gone from starving to stealing, and from barely having enough for herself to handing it out to others. She works the middle and upper class areas, stealing from people. She leaves a small metal or wood disc with the image of a flying frog in it.
