==Biography==
===Early life===
Yue was born to Chief Arnook and his wife, but she was very sick upon her birth. To save his daughter's life, Arnook had the Priests take her to the Spirit Oasis. Yue was bathed in the sacred waters. Her parents prayed to the Moon Spirit to save her life. Yue was touched by the Moon Spirit, which healed her and turned Yue's once brown hair white. 
Since she was young, Yue was engaged to a young soldier Hahn. However, Yue broke off their engagement before the series' events.
===Spirited Away===
Princess Yue (in her dreams) enters the Spirit World as a white Kitsune. There are encounters with Sokka, who entered the Spirit world with his sister and Aang when the latter was meditating. 
===The North===
When Team Avatar arrived at the Northern Water Tribe, Yue and the others welcomes them, including Sokka who stares at her. During the feast, Yue is seen making desserts before Sokka talks to her. The next morning, Yue brought Aang to Kuruk's temple to talk to him before Sokka enters to talk to her. She later reveals that she became a half-spirit and a half-human after she was healed by the Moon Spirit's energy, revealing herself to be the fox that Sokka met while he's at the Spirit World.
===Legends===
As the Fire Nation attempts to breach the wall guarding Agna Qal'a in the Northern Water Tribe, Chief Arnook assigns Sokka with the crucial task of safeguarding his daughter, Princess Yue. During the battle, Yue leads Sokka and a fatally injured Momo to the tribe's spirit oasis, where she had been healed by the Moon spirit as a child. There, they use the water to heal Momo. Suddenly Yue and Sokka see a warship coming over them and it's the same one that Sokka helped the Mechanist Sai design. 
The trio hides as they see Zhao, Iroh, and a small group of firebenders arrive in the Spirit Oasis using a Fire Nation hot air balloon. Iroh once again warns Zhao that killing the Moon spirit will bring chaos to the world, which has taken the form of a koi fish. Aang joins Yue, and Sokka confronts Zhao and tries to convince him to spare the Moon Spirit. However, the power-hungry general kills it despite Iroh and Aang's efforts, causing waterbenders to lose their powers. Infuriated, Iroh unleashes his firebending on Zhao's forces and leaves the heroes in the Spirit Oasis. At the same time, Aang merges with the vengeful ocean spirit, La, in order to fight off the Fire Nation. Yue tells Sokka that she is the only one who can bring the Moon back since she was touched by the Moon Spirit as a child. Sokka tries to stop her, but Yue the only one who has her water-bending abilities, freezes Sokka's feet. She sacrifices her life force to revive Tui, become the new Moon spirit, and restore the waterbender's abilities, the Moon and Aang back to normal.
==Powers and Abilities==
*Waterbending: When the Moon Spirit was killed and the moon disappeared, Yue was the only Waterbender who still had active powers, as she froze Sokka in place with her powers. After she restored Tui, Yue transcended as the next Moon Spirit, making her an Avatar-leveled waterbender.

==Trivia==
*In the original cartoons:
** Princess Yue was not a Waterbender until after she was reincarnated as the Moon Spirit.
**Yue always puts her duty above her own feelings. However, in the Netflix adaptation, she chose to be her own person. Additionally, she and Hahn mutually broke off their engagement before the series because Hahn lacks his original counterpart's arrogant and sexist nature.
**She did not travel in the spirit world as a Kitsune and she didn't meet Sokka until he and team Avatar came to Anga Qal'a.
*Aside from Amber Midthunder's casting, Yue's wig in the series received a lot of criticism for looking fake and too poofy. Many people say that even the Yue from the heavily panned 2010 movie adaptation looked a lot better than in this series, even if the actress isn't Asian.
