===Bio===
Aura was born in the ancient village of Hardstone 10 years before Avatar Korra`s death to Jie and Sui Ying Shi, a earth and fire bending respectively.
She met booth of her best friends, Tora Lune and Isa Jin Zhong at an early age and helped the two of them to stop arguing with their elements.
She later trained Avatar Tune Tiao in the art of mud and dustbending.
==Abilities==
Aura mastered basic earthbending at a young age, and moved on to create new bending forms.
Aura`s bending is unique. Her bending is highly influenced by fire and water bending along with swampbending. This is because growing up she was taught various forms that where not related to earthbending. Her metal and mud bending skills are influenced by waterbending, her sandbending is influenced by ancient firebending forms and her dustbending was created using the same principles that waterbenders use to draw water out of the air, except with dust. Dustbending is heavily influenced by airbending.
Aura is also a master archer, and swordmaster. Using her specially made bow, she uses metalbending to change it into different weapons.
