Ty Lee

## Personality

Ty Lee is bubbly & outgoing, yet slightly airheaded. She was a direct contrast to Azula's cruelty & Mai's constant torpor. She took delight in her acrobatic abilities, never missing an opportunity to show them off. She often craved attention & recognition, a result of her upbringing as part of an identical set of seven sisters. These attention issues also caused her to be a bit of a flirt, which is why she needed the affection of multiple boyfriends (according to Mai).

She has a strong sense of loyalty to her friends. Despite her obvious differences from Mai, she had a deep respect for her & they often made an effective fighting duo. Ever since childhood, Ty Lee has considered Azula as a friend though some of her loyaty is out of fear of the princess.

Ty Lee was known not to hold grudges against her enemies despite their encounters on the battlefield. She has shown admiration for the Kyoshi Warriors, though she has battled them many times & has flirted with Sokka, despite the animosity between her friends & his friends. She sometimes came off as superficial. She once warned her friends about the risk of getting acne from the negative energy surrounding their serious conversation.

## Powers & Abilities

* **Acrobatics:** She has remarkable acrobatic abilities, which allowed her to join the circus & perform high-wire acts with balance & grace. People traveled for miles to see her perform. Because of this, she was fast & agile in battle, able to outmaneuver almost any opponent she came across and jump exceptionally high & far, even from a stationary position.
* **Peak Human Agility:** Ty Lee was extraordinarily agile. Even as a child, she was able to execute mid-air somersaults and cartwheels that surpassed even Azula's. Her agility continued to improve with age and she was commonly seen walking around in a headstance on just her fingers. Her abilities allowed her to dodge the attacks of dozens of powerful earthbenders, who were unable to land a hit on her.[ She was also limber; able to twist, bend, and contort herself into positions nearly impossible for an ordinary person to achieve. These abilities also granted her impressive parkour & free-running skills, allowing her to scale almost any surface or terrain quickly and squeeze through most barriers and small spaces with noticeable ease.
* **Chi Blocking:** One of Ty Lee's defining abilities is her mastery of pressure-point-striking martial arts, otherwise known as "chi blocking." With her extensive knowledge of the human body, she could strike sequences of pressure points, immobilizing her enemies to various degrees. She had the ability to paralyze a single body part or an opponent's entire body. This technique allowed her to block certain chi paths in benders to compromise their abilities. This made her especially dangerous to benders who relied solely on their bending & possessed no secondary fighting skills. Combined with her extraordinary agility, she is able to defeat dozens of powerful benders within seconds. However, if her target has faced her before or is expecting her attacks, the effectiveness of her chi blocking decreases as her opponent takes measures to prevent her from using the technique.
* **Hand to Hand Combat:** Ty Lee is a formidable hand to hand combatant, often utilizing chi blocking in battle.
