==Summary==
Even as the prince of the Fire Nation, Zuko has always struggled in life, particularly in matching his prodigy sister Azula and getting his father's acknowledgment. This came to a head when Ozai punished him for a perceived slight by horrifically burning his face and sending him into exile, refusing to let him return until he had captured the Avatar. (This was intended to be an impossible task, since Aang had been missing for a century). Determined to prove his worth to his father, Zuko hunted Aang across the world for the first season while trying to find his own destiny. Eventually, Zuko betrays Iroh and helps Azula take over Ba Sing Se. Granted amnesty for his actions, Zuko is finally allowed to come home. He has his honor restored, the adoration of a nation, the love of his life, and the respect of his father. And he finds himself lacking. After some soul-searching, Zuko finally realizes what Iroh had always tried to teach him. After calling out Ozai for controlling him, making him feel worthless, burning his face, banishing him for three years and generally being an evil, contemptible douchebag, Zuko defects to join the Gaang as Aang's Firebending teacher. Though initially mistrusted, grudges dissolve into friendships and Zuko soon becomes a core member of the group. At the end of the series, Zuko becomes the new Fire Lord and strives to rebuild the world into an era of peace. And hopefully find his mother.

Stamina: Superhuman
Range: Standard Melee Range, Hundreds of meters with Firebending
Standard Equipment: Two Dao Swords
Intelligence: Above Average (Quite intelligent, skilled strategist, able to exploit any situation to his advantage such as he used his ship's damages as a smokescreen to conceal his movements from Zhao and he is also able to form alliances with people with special skills and use them to his advantage. Also when he and Aang needed to get into a specific room in the Sun Warrior ruins, Zuko was able to outsmart the Celestial Calendar by using the reflective properties of his dual swords, as the calendar would otherwise only allow the room's doors to open during a summer solstice. He also displayed good military, organizational and leadership skills when he became Fire Lord, as seen when he re-organized the Fire Nation Army into a more compact and effective force and later commanded it in the battle for Yu Dao)
Weaknesses: A solar eclipse disables Firebending, Sozin's Comet only passes by once per every 100 years. Hot-headed and often lets his temper get the best of him (No longer a weakness after he joined Aang and his Gang).
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Firebending: Firebending is one of the four main elements, it is only element which produces the element. With Firebending, Zuko can use a range of different techniques.
*Lightning Redirection: Zuko redirects lightning by channeling it from the points of his fingers out the next. This ability is derived from Iroh's studies on the water tribe.
*Dragonfire: After becoming Fire Lord, Zuko learned how to generate multicolored flames similar to the fire that the dragons Ran and Shaw created around him and Aang.
