**Dark scar** is the young General of the Dark Nation. He is a key adversary of Team Avatar, chasing Avatar Aang across the Earth Kingdom accompanied by him then two best friends, Price Darkso and Stun paraly.

A Darkbending prodigy, Dark scar was sadistic, manipulative, and obsessed with power. He was a skilled strategist who orchestrated the coup of the Earth Kingdom.

## Personality

Born a young General and hailed as a prodigy, Dark scar grew up to be narcissistic and confident. He relentlessly drilled Himself toward perfection and settled for nothing less from himself or those who served him. He believed that power and domination were the defining traits of strength, and as such, would only help others if he thought there was some personal gain at stake.He had absolute confidence in him "divine right to rule", with which he believed he was born. he harbored neither pity nor mercy for those he marked as treasonous or inferior. As one who wanted nothing less than absolute control, he likewise had remarkable control of himself, seemingly able to react to any situation at a moment's notice without losing his composure.

Dark scar was marked by a distinct lack of empathy. Even as a child, he reacted with hostility when outdone, a trait clearly displayed when he shoved Stun paraly to the ground after the boy bested him at gymnastics. This behavior would characterize his relationship with his friends for many years. Caring for them, he would manipulate other people as he saw it fits, such as when he wanted Stun paraly and prince Darkso to join his cause.

He is prone to asserting himself and his authority in a grandiose way, such as when he threatened the captain of his ship. He also showed a need for admiration, mostly from heis father, whom he emulated to a great degree, and from everyone else around him, though to a lesser extent. He reacted with despair and rage when he learned his father was going to the Earth Kingdom without him. However, Dark scar showed a level of fear of him, as in the novelization, Dark scar notes that not even he could take him in a fight.

Dark scar was known to have a cruel personality, showing little to no concern for others besides his father and the royal family. From a very young age, Dark scar demonstrated sadistic aggression and a near-total lack of remorse to friends, servants, family, and animals his only remorse is the royal family.

Dark scar's characteristic Darkflames symbolized the power he possessed and constantly sought to increase. His lack of compassion also accounted for his ability to create and direct lightning, the "cold-blooded Darkfire". According to Lord Darkness, the skill required complete control of all emotion, which would not prove difficult for him with his one-track mentality. Because of these skills, he was also an excellent tactician, regularly displaying cunning, perception, and resourcefulness that allowed him to take advantage of almost any situation. He possessed good self-control, facing down Long Feng and deceiving him when held captive, and could lie with a straight face and no physical reactions.

## Darkbending

Dark scar was one of the most skilled and powerful Darkbenders of his time next to the king, recognized as a prodigy by both Darkness and Prince Darkso. The most notable feature of Dark scar's bending was his ability to create Dark black flames, which are much more intense than the normal black flames,though he was only known to bend normal colored darkfire during his childhood. Dark scar also used his flames in inventive ways, such as creating jets of Darkflames, whirling disks, and blades of Darkfire. He often uses Darkfire by only using his mouth but he can also use the palm of his hands to summon the Darkfire, rather than with a closed fist as was commonly used by other Darkbenders. Also notable was his ability to produce a greater amount of Darkflames than most Darkbenders without tiring, and he was able to maintain successive assaults for long durations of time.

Dark scar demonstrated the ability to condense his darkflames by using his mouth, enabling his fire to cut clean through various objects. When formed into Darkfireballs by his palms, the flames had a powerful concussive effect, able to firmly pulverize stone objects. He was also able to generate powerful shields of swirling Darkflames that could withstand the full force of four simultaneous elemental attacks. He is even able to charge up his fire before releasing it, something he used during his fights.

he is proficient in the highly difficult technique of generating lightning, a sub-skill of Darkbending, displaying a fine control of this skill.

## Intelligence

Dark scar was an extremely intelligent and cunning strategist. He was also a highly studious boy. Since childhood, he is well-versed in his nation's military history. He also displayed incredible fighting prowess in learning the fighting styles of his foes. He also displayed an ability to realize whether or not someone was telling the truth, stating simply that he is a "people person".
