Wan

Wan a human male, was born during the final years of the era of Raava and bonded with the Great Spirit Raava, becoming the first Avatar and ushering the planet Reylea into a new age. In his youth, Wan lived in poverty of a city which was built on the back of a lion turtle. In a bid to gain more food from the ruling Chou family, Wan joined a group of hunters to gain the power of firebending from the lion turtle, though secretly kept the power for himself. Wan used his power to lead a raid on the Chou palace, though was eventually captured. As punishment for stealing the element, Wan was banished into the Spirit Wilds — though he was allowed to keep his fire to defend himself.
After being banished from his home, Wan at first struggled to survive in the perilous wilderness. Over time, however, Wan met and befriended several spirits after defending them from human hunters, learning to coexist with the spirits and further developing his talent for firebending. Years later, while searching for other lion turtle cities to settle in, Wan encountered the Great Spirits, Raava and Vaatu, who were in the midst of a raging battle. Vaatu begged Wan for help, prompting the young human to intervene and free the chaotic spirit from Raava's grasp.
After realizing the mistake he made in freeing Vaatu, Wan dedicated himself to stopping the chaotic spirit from plunging Reylea and its Sixteen Realms into chaos. To accomplish this goal, Wan partnered with Raava and learned to wield the other three bending elements from the lion turtles. When the battle for the realms came at Harmonic Convergence, Wan permanently fused with Raava to create the first incarnation of the Avatar and imprisoned Vaatu within the Tree of Time. Due to the ever-present conflict between spirits and mankind, Wan guided the spirits to the Spirit World and closed the portals connecting both realms. He announced that, as the Avatar, he would be the bridge between the two worlds and would work to maintain balance in the world of man while teaching them to respect the spirits.
