Character Name: Nitori Jing (i just thought up Nitori on the spot lol)
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Description: Jing's skin is slightly tanned, and is always encrusted with some dirt, mostly on his feet, his hair is almost completely black, save for a few white strands, his hair is set in a spiky messy way (just look at avatar for the hair lol) which hangs over his dark moss green eyes.
Jing's clothing is slightly different from the local peasents of the Earth Kingdom, he wears a dark green shirt which ends at his shoulders, his arms are covered by the arms of a light green undershirt, his trousers are the same colour as the dark green sleeveless shirt, they end at his ankles, so some of his skin is visible between the trouser cuffs, and his feet guards.
He is barefoot to aid with his bending, however he has guards that cover the top of his feet, save for his toes, these are just there to protect anyone attacking his attachment to the earth, which is his feet.
Personality: Jing is quite nice around people of all sorts, he always tries to be nice and calm around new people, although he hates it when people have an idea set through with someone when they see them (this means to say something about someone when you have just first set your eyes on them), he is almost certain that he will not be accepted by either water tribe or air nomad, due to him being from the Earth Kingdom, he is also very ambitious, and is ready to do anything and everything, one of his greatest desires is to try everything there is to do in the world at least once, unless there is a huge roblem with it, for example, he would never fight for an enemy just because it is something he hasnt tried before.
History: Jing was born in a small town, quite far from Ba Sing Se, the locals all seemed to agree with Ieyasu Tokugawa on the war, Jing, did not, for one, he hated seeing people leave the villiage, knowing they were going to die and never come back, he supposed he had once been like them, but he had lost way too many friends to the war already, but funny enough, they didnt seem to mind, whether it was bravery or stupidity, Jing hoped the war would end soon, so more people would be spared those thoughts.
He grew up learning earthbending all the way, only a fool would call him a master, but he could defend himself quite well when he uses it, it was a hard and long journey before he had passed everything his father set for him, and he still didnt know everytihng there was to it, but before his father could renew his last phase of training, he was drafted into the war, and never came back, as such, Jing couldnt learn some of his fathers advanced moves, so he did what all growing warriors do, improvise, he set himself to his own training, and soon developed a unique style of fighting to fit with his way of life, and soon, he decided it was high time to leave the village, he thought that if he could travel around, he could start learning more.
There was one small hitch, his mother disagreed with him traveling, saying that he was to young and he needed to spend more time training for the war, as he was bound to be drafted soon, Jing knew she was right, but instead of her ferocity on the subject crushing his desires to travel, they only made them stronger, and, he was forced to leave at night, the only thing showing his departure was a small handwritten note addressed to his mother, explaining how he needed to leave, and he was going to travel the world, even if it was going to kill him, which was in his mothers mind, the case of what was going to happen.
Fighting Style: Jing is a earthbender, and whilst he isnt the best, he is adept at what he does, his fighting style involves disarming an opponent and stopping them from attacking, as killing, is something completely out of the question for him.
Equipment/Tools/Pets: None so far.
