How's it going?

@Wade Wilson

Oh sorry, I had meant to post it yesterday, but from Thanksgiving and how tired I was at the end of it all, it slipped my mind.

But whatever, here it is. :)

So... Is this full, or what? Because I would love to be part of it, if it is at all possible.

@The Mad Hatter

I can't speak for @Exit, but there does seem to be plenty of room. We're still missing a Water Bender, and two non-benders.

Jaakuna Hinoko/The Last Avatar

“A day without laughter is a day wasted.”
Jaakuna is close to six feet in height, but his muscle mass doesn’t even come close enough for people to consider him a threat. The lifestyle he lives barely puts enough meat on his bones to keep him healthy, so it should be accurately assumed that he wouldn’t have that much muscle on his body to pose any kind of initial threat. Even though he does have several tattoos on his body, that’s a common thing within the lower ring as most criminals have some kind of combination of tattoos. Though, these criminals usually have it on their face, so perhaps Jaakuna is lucky in that case.

Jaakuna’s skin color is not as sickly as his body type is. He may not have a tan, but he’s not pale/albino white, either. He has long, flowing blonde hair that usually covers up his neck tattoos(front, sides, and back). However, when Jaakuna has it up in a wolf tail or some kind of -tail style, the tattoos are visible. Jaakuna has his fingernails painted. Usually they’re black, but sometimes he likes to brighten it up and go with noticeable colors like red or even pink at times.

Jaakuna’s attire, though not always, usually includes some kind of cotton-based pants or jeans, boot-like shoes, and his favorite red jacket w/hood attached to it. He also wears martial arts tap around both of his hands that usually goes halfway up his forearm.

NAME

Jaakuna Hinoko

NICKNAMES

Jaak(common nickname), Sundance(his squad), Jaaky(little sister), J(his brother), Delinquent(by most guards)

AGE

19

GENDER

Male

ELEMENT

Firebender(currently unaware that he has latent fire-bending capabilities).

HOME

Lower Ring, lives with his younger brother and sister.

PROFESSION

Jack of all trades(burglary, bribing, debt-collecting, rare kidnapping)

PERSONALITY

Stubborn/hotheaded | Sarcastic | Vulgar | Caring and Protective | Carefree

Jaakuna’s mouth usually gets him into trouble. This could either be from his give-no-fucks attitude or the amount of sarcasm he implements into his every day speech. Whatever it may be, it will, eight out of ten times land him into hot water. This could be with the ladies and their boyfriends/husbands or crime bosses. Hell, he’s been known to be knocked around a few times by some of the guards. Even if he does get a few ribs or bones broken, Jaakuna doesn’t let it ruin his always-positive mood. In his mind, laughter is the most important thing and not to do it would waste a possibly-wondrous day. He’d rather laugh than frown or cry.

Like with his sarcasm and vulgarity, Jaakuna’s hotheadedness always lands him into trouble, but a different kind of trouble. There have been instances where Jaakuna, in protection of his younger siblings, be it protecting Mukuna from bullies or handling beefs that Ganko got himself into, Jaakuna is always there to protect them. If there’s anything that Jaakuna won’t stand for, that would be anyone trashing his siblings(verbally or physically). They are all he’s got and vice-versa for them to him, so you can bet your sweet as that Jaakuna will do anything to protect them. He would even murder someone if it meant they would be safe.

Not necessarily the beacon of morality or responsibility(most of the time), Jaakuna exhibit’s a laid-back, carefree disposition. It’s been noted by both of his siblings that he is pretty lazy. Even though he’s supposed to be the provider - and he is - he certainly doesn’t act like it. When Jaakuna’s not doing jobs here and there for various crime bosses, he could be seen hanging out with some local “thugs” or skipping away on the rooftops(usually looking at clouds). Jaakuna has been known to do street performing here and there. Since he is rather skilled in acrobatics, it has made him extra money that way. Jaakuna could also be seen laughing and smiling and just enjoying life as the best as he can.

STANCE ON BENDERS

There is a certain amount of hatred that Jaakuna harbors against The Republic for what they did to his parents. He holds them responsible for a loss he experienced. If given the chance, he will take them out.

HISTORY

Jaakuna and his two siblings lost their parents in The Great War.

Jaakuna has been taking care of his two younger siblings since the age of twelve and has lived in the Lower Ring ever since.

Jaakuna, if given the chance, will enact revenge upon The Republic as fast as a single heartbeat.

Has done jobs for various crime bosses, including The Triad.

In The Mirror

In Depth Appearance:
Not one to be seen without a smile, Greta posesses a heart-shaped face with a button nose and a set of beautiful almond shaped eyes. Her eyes, which are by far her most striking feature are a gorgeous shade of ash grey and her thin lips, which accentuates her small mouth a healthy pink. They rest easily on her face, supple and intuitive, ready to spread into a smile at a moment's notice. Her ivory complexion is fair, with subtle golden undertones. Her hair is a lovely shade of honey blonde extending down to her shoulders. Blessed with ample assets, she stands at 5'6" with a slim body with just the right amount of curves.

Clothing Style:
Greta can usually be seen dressed in tank tops, crop tops or t-shirts. Jeans, pants or shorts are worn completing the outfit with a pair of sport shoes or boots. Not a fan of skirts and dresses, one can rarely, if ever find her dressed in such. Colours wise, she tend to favour clothes in pastel colours as they feel refreshing to her. In colder weather, parkas, scarves and beanies are an equally common sight in addition to her usual clothing of choice. She always wears a lightning-shaped locket which was a gift from her dearest father on her eighteen birthday. It is one of her most treasured possessions.

Personality:

♦ Principled ♦ Daring ♦ Energetic ♦ Headstrong ♦

With an equally radiant personality to match her exuberant appearance, Greta is an energetic and adventurous individual that is also competitive and passionate for what she loves and believes in. Bold and daring, she is not afraid of trying out new things as well as engaging in high-octane sports and activity with a high adrenaline level. She always seek to strive for her best, and improving what she already knows. Warm and friendly, Greta is very much a people person and generally gets along well with people due to her pleasant disposition. Headstrong and determined, once she sets her mind on something, she will do her best to achieve or complete it. She sticks to the unwritten rules that she sets for herself and abides by them at all times. A highly emotional person, her feelings tend to overpower her at times, which may impair and cloud her judgement.

When it comes to romance, Greta is by no means an expert in the field. She does more than her fair share of flirting among the guys she interacts with. A sucker for romance, she is a big fan of the whole love and affection thing between a couple and will go all out for the person she loves and considers her other half. Confidence can sometimes be an issue for her as she begin to doubt her competence and abilities. Prone to being stubborn and obstinate, she often insists on doing things her way even though she knows that it may not be the fastest or most efficient way. She always seeks company, and likes it most when not alone.

Background:
Born to a single mother, Greta was never once told anything of her father. Whenever the young girl asked her mother about who her father was and what he was like, all she got back was a blank stare and a knock on the head to go along with asking unnecessary questions. But that wasn't so bad as it would be later on. At least her mother still cared and show plenty of affection to her on a daily basis. She would still read her bedtime stories on Greek Gods & Goddess.

But that slowly changed as the young girl grew older and older. It didn't help that her mother started drowning her sorrows in a variety of alcoholic drinks which would more often than not bring out the violent streak in her. Greta had no idea what brought about the change in her mother, and she simply assumed it was a combination of work and other factors she was unaware of.

Their relations grew estranged and it grew to a certain point where Greta was simply tolerating her violent mother until she could earn enough to leave home and fend for herself. Balancing school and several part-time jobs was definitely not an easy feat but she persevered and soldiered on. A couple of months after her fifteen birthday, the day she had been waiting for came. With enough money stored away in her own personal bank account, she fled home in the dead of night. Her mother was piss-drunk and heard or discovered nothing. She would be out for more than a handful of hours at least.

Once she left home, Greta rented out a room in one of her friend's houses and stayed there until she was seventeen. On the way from home one depressing rainy day, Greta came across a bearded man who identified himself as the Greek God, Zeus. She laughed at him. He didn't look like a god one bit. But then, the man squared his shoulders and he stared at her, his stature now strong and imposing as he clapped his hands. In a flash, lightning and thunder appeared in the sky.

He did that several more times, and it was as if he was really the God of Thunder and the skies obeyed him. As if to emphasis his point further, with several gestures of his hands, the rain grew heavier and then lighter, as if he was a conductor in an orchestra. Greta was amazed, and all doubt she had earlier had all but evaporated. Seeing that she was convinced, Zeus let out the fact that she was actually his daughter, which would make her a demi-god. He handed her a sheet of paper detailing her directions to Olympus Academy. Father and daughter began to meet often after their first encounter, and Zeus tried his best to fulfill his role as a father and the sole parental figure in Greta's life. On her eighteen birthday, he gave her a locket shaped in the form of a lightning bolt, which remained as one of her most treasured possessions to date.

Extra:
^{My favourite god is Poseidon. Favourite goddess is Artemis.}

Godly Information

Godly Parent:
Zeus

Relationship With Godly Parent:
Greta was introduced to her father rather late into her life compared to most demi-gods, and Zeus has been trying to make it up to her by being the good parental figure in her life. The father she had never had. She had all the right to be mad at him, but she never was, She was simply glad to spend time with him, and to feel affection once more. She had a father now. Things would be different now.

Godly Abilities:

Meteorokinesis - She is able to sense, create, shape and manipulate weather. Greta is able to sense meteorological patterns, create rain, wind, hail, lightning, snow, sleet, fog as well as induce temperature changes. She is also able to control the weather via her emotions. (i.e, clear and sunny when happy, stormy when angered, raining when sad)

Atmospheric Adaptation – Her lungs would be able to acclimatize and breathe in/on any gaseous mediums, whether hostile or deficient. Her lungs also filter away non-gaseous substances such as dust, asbestos, etc. She can breathe in toxic gases instead of oxygen and survive air deficiency, which are among the longest and most painful deaths the average human can suffer.

Aerial Adaptation – Greta is able to survive and adapt to extremely high or low air pressure (not becoming disoriented or deprived of the normal breathing capacity), and high wind friction; this is accompanied by an innate immunity to the vertigo and/or fear of heights. This also means that she has an immunity to Altitude Sickness.
