[hider=Lian Wei-Na] [b]Name:[/b] Lian Wei-Na [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Appearance:[/b] Some would say her tomboyish looks would contrast her personality. She stands at about 5'0", with moderate brown skin, dull green eyes (somewhat obscured behind a pair of square rimmed prescription glasses), and glorious wild mane of dark brown hair that would reach down just a little past her shoulders if it were straightened. She has this sort of soft, pear shaped frame to her body, complete with wide hips, stocky thighs, and a pleasantly full derriere. Her style of dressing has been mostly lifted from the strongly masculine side of her family. Sneakers, baggy jeans and gym shorts, t-shirts, jackets, and hoodies are usually among the preferred items of clothing. When she was snatched up she was wearing a denim jacket, sleeveless green shirt, dingy overalls (its straps hanging loosely at her waist) and some old canvas hi-tops. [b]Abilities:[/b] Lian was bestowed miraculous, wondrous powers upon her. Yet, these were abilities that she would've cursed upon another, rather than herself. The ancient spirit Raava dwells within her, and (alongside the typical glowy-eyed light show) has begun its outward manifestations through the form of beginner’s waterbending, much to Lian's dismay. [b]Equipment and Bionics:[/b] At the time of abduction, Lian was holding no more than the clothes on her back, a wallet full of Yuans, and a Future Industries smartphone. Said items were most likely confiscated by time of rescue. [b]Personality:[/b] Lian's never been one to act out around her parents (or most other elder figures, for that matter). Fairly obedient and doting (with the slightest twinge of resentment) around these sorts of people and her siblings. One would think she would always act this way, yet it's not the case around her similarly aged friends and acquaintances. She’s a bit louder, and not as stubborn as she is full of sass, deep seated self-loathing, and agitated rebuttals. There’s also a bit of pent up anger surging through her person (for several reasons), and she can be easy to erupt given the issue at hand. [b]Backstory:[/b] The Wei-Na family was one full of proud earthbenders. Arrogant, condescending individuals who considered their bending to be the be all end all in terms of elemental control. A family of wide shouldered pro-benders, construction workers, miners, metalbenders and magmabenders all alike. They were all fairly against the Avatar. Elders of the Wei-Na clan considered Korra a "plague that damn near destroyed the world across several occasions" and "should've been pacified the second she created the spirit portals and practically ruined the city". And as old-fashioned and ignorant as it sounded, said ideals were passed down and reinforced through the generations. They considered the Avatar’s death a blessing. So enter Lian, this quiet little girl made only quieter by her parents as they realized she lacked any real earthbending potential. She swore she could almost hear them calling her a mistake. But, as if to spite the girl, they tried again, and again, and again for an ideal child. Soon Lian had a series of strong baby brothers, born one after another, and all showing wonderful signs of being powerful future earthbenders. Naturally, she was pushed out of the limelight faster than she could register, subtly neglected by her extended family members, and barely loved by her parents. She would fight a winless battle for their affections, and it would only leave her either angry at her own shortcomings, or resentful of her parent’s attitudes towards their daughter. But she’d never dare show it to their faces. So her angers resembled her family's, and her aggravations were turned towards the Avatar, much like everyone else's. One particular bout of pent up frustrations sent her bolting out of the Wei-Na household one night, failing to hold back tears as she ran to a park. She seethed and fell to her knees as she approached a pond, grinding her teeth to stifle rage filled screams. She ripped at the grass, and stuck the earth, oblivious of the waves of water she was generating until they splashed at her. She paused, staring at the rippling water until she realized a pair of illuminant eyes were glaring back. She was quick to realize that the waves were her doing. And that those glowing eyes were her eyes. "No...Oh no..." She didn't have to have it explained to her. She knew what she was. What could she do? "I...I don't want this!" Could she go to anyone about this? Who could she tell? "My family...my parents..." Their neglectful actions would become full-on malicious. They would disown her for sure. "No...I..." She could barely breathe, exhaling ragged breaths. At the height of her despair, she was abducted from that very park. Subdued and taken to some unknown location. The search her parents issued was half-hearted and barely lasted a month. They were quick to move past their daughter’s disappearance. [/hider]
