Toph Beifong

Toph Beifong is one of the main protagonists of the Avatar: The Last Airbender series. She appeared in the 42nd episode of Death Battle, Gaara VS Toph, where she fought against Gaara from the Naruto series.
==History==
Toph Beifong was born into the wealthy Beifong family. However, she was born a blind child, so Toph was hidden away from the world, pampered and sheltered because her parents viewed her as helpless and fragile. One day, however, Toph ran away, finding herself lost in a cave full of badgermoles. She took a liking to them, as they were also blind, and learned to earthbend from their ways by "seeing" with her other senses. In time, she perfected earthbending and used it to help her perceive the world around her through a "seismic sense", even secretly participating in earthbending tournaments where she reigned supreme. One day, she met Aang, the Avatar, and accompanied him on his journey to stop the Fire Nation, which helped her pioneer new methods of earthbending, even becoming the first-ever metalbender.

<tabber>
|-|Deadpool VS Mask=
Toph can be seen during Deadpool VS Mask in one of the alternate realities that was shown in the background when Deadpool uses the Continuity Gem. However, instead of getting killed by her opponent like the rest of the cameos, the scene ends before her fate is shown because animator Zack Watkins didn't have enough time to draw the second panel showing the the altered outcome to her fight.

<tabber>
|-|Gaara VS Toph=
*"Whew, talk about a tough ride."
*"Pfft. Oh yeah, tough guy? Make me."
*"By the way, I can tell you're using your sand to smash up the ground as you move for more ammo. Pretty smart for a Sandbender. Too bad I'm gonna kick your butt before you can use any of it!"
*"Huh? Woah!"
*"Whew. Sorry, grumpy. I'm not ready to be a shish kebab just yet!"
*"Come on! Are you really that scared of a little blind girl? I'm touched."
*"Impressive insight, "Gloomsville". I'm digging the whole "wearing sand" thing though. That's new!"
*"Hey! No fair!"
*"Dream on, creep! It will take a lot more sand than that to take me down!"
*"Oh, crud..."
*"Jeez! I almost felt that."
*"Are you kidding? Pay attention, Sandy. I'm about to school you!"
*"Gotcha..."
*"That's how it's done."
