## Biography

### Early life

Born into a Fire Nation noble family, Ty Lee was one of seven identical sisters, the others being Ty Lin, Ty Lat, Ty Lao, Ty Liu, Ty Lum, and Ty Woo. In order to preserve a sense of individuality, the sisters each chose a different hobby and agreed to stay away from each other so their parents could not compare them with one another. Ty Lee claimed acrobatics for herself, even though her sisters were also skilled in this regard. Despite that, Ty Lee still felt like she was part of a matched set and constantly had to compete for attention, often feeling neglected by her surroundings.

She attended the prestigious Royal Fire Academy for Girls where she met Azula and Mai, both of whom she developed a close friendship with. Due to her close association with the Fire Nation princess, Ty Lee was permitted to play with Mai and Azula at the Palace. During one of those outings, Ty Lee demonstrated her superior acrobatic skills by performing a series of cartwheels and somersaults, which Azula proved unable to mimic. As a result, Ty Lee was pushed to the ground by a jealous Azula, who subsequently laughed at her. Despite her indignant reaction to the princess' behavior, Ty Lee happily went along with Azula's plan to humiliate Zuko, on whom Mai had a crush. After Azula orchestrated a situation in which Mai and Zuko fell into a fountain, Ty Lee teased the pair about being "cute" together. She, Azula, and Mai also played hide-and-seek at the palace, but Azula always won due to knowing secret passageways in the complex. Eventually, Ty Lee and Mai discovered this secret.

One day, the palace was attacked by a mysterious warlord who called himself the Unknown Enemy. Azula and May escape, but Ty Lee is caught by the officers. The officer and some troops were about to kill her, but for some reason the Unknown Enemy kills the officer and the troops. Ty Lee joins him home to the empire castle where The Unknown Enemy begins training Ty Lee in the dark side of kung fu until Ty Lee suddenly called him Dad It causes The Unknown Enemy to run around the castle and say to all their allies "hey, all the same, have you heard the news? I'm a father! JOOHOO!"

The Mandalore Plot

## Premise

While investigating rumors of conspiracy surrounding Duchess Satine of Mandalore, Daniel uncovers the truth about a mysterious Mandalorian plot.

## Synopsis

Daniel arrives at Sundari on Mandalore, and is escorted via speeder to meet Duchess Satine. He is met by Prime Minister Almec, who claims Mandalore's violence died out with the warriors on Concordia, Mandalore's reserve. Satine arrives and engages with Daniel in a brief, flirtatious conversation (mixed with mild aversion) before Daniel shows her a hologram of a figure in Mandalorian armor attacking a kung fu cruiser. Satine assures him that she is not behind the attack, and she and Daniel set out for a tour of the city.

They travel to a garden, where Satine tells Daniel of a rogue group of Mandalorians called Death Watch, which is opposed to Satine's peaceful ways. She claims she has worked to root out the group of criminals and has tracked them to Concordia.

Meanwhile, on Concordia, a man in Mandalorian armor is conversing with a hologram of Master Bear, who has promised to support Death Watch. They plan to rally more citizens to their cause so they can overthrow the Duchess.

Back on Mandalore, Satine and Daniel are touring the gardens when there is an explosion. Satine and Daniel rush in to rescue the injured, and see a hologram showing the crest of Death Watch. Daniel spots a man fleeing the scene, and pursues him through the gardens. After a brief struggle, the man jumps off a balcony, preferring to commit suicide rather than being kidnapped and interrogated by the master. However, Satine and Daniel manage to reach the dying man on the lower floor just before the Mandalorian whispers his last words to the Duchess in the dialect of Concordia.

Daniel and Satine travel to the reserve and are greeted by Governor Pre Vizsla. The Fire Master decides to secretly investigate the situation on Concordia and gives Satine an earpiece so they can communicate. He travels by a speeder bike to one of the reserve's supposedly nonoperational mines where, after a small scuffle, he is captured by two armed Mandalorians. He then contacts Satine, who is drinking with Vizsla, pretending Daniel is meditating in his chamber and is going to join them in a few minutes. She excuses herself, and sets off on a speeder bike towards the mine, where she shuts down the mining machine which would have crushed Daniel. They escape through a turbolift, but are cut off by a group of Death Watch members in armor. The group's leader orders an evacuation of the mines, then reveals his face to be Governor Vizsla, who has been plotting against Satine and the kung fu master. He gives Daniel's sword of fire back to him, then brandishes his own Darksaber. They duel, and Vizsla is defeated. He orders his warriors to kill Daniel, who escapes with Satine down the turbolift shaft. They journey back to Sundari, where Daniel tells Satine he believes the Dark Empire are aiding Death Watch. But despite the evidence, Satine vows to stay out of the war. Tai Lung and Sonic arrives to report for duty, and they and Daniel join Satine aboard her starship.
EOTSP

## Empire of the Sassy People

The EOTSP's current flag is the white flag cuz y e a

The Empire of the Sassy People, now the United African Republic and also known as the Union of Sassy Peoples is a theocratic fascist dictatorship that at its height, controlled land on 3 continents. They once were a mighty military power, and the first to create long-range electric weaponry. They also led the mighty crusader knights in the great tiktok crusades.

Its capital is Abuja.

Things to keep in mind when going there:

* DON'T GO THERE

## Culture

They don't really have a culture. They like ramen though.

## Military

The Sassy Military was always based on a caste system. Soldiers would get little to no pay. Often soldiers were untrained prescripts, although, during the crusades, the EOTSP had a brutal but effective training system to train the "Knights of Tiktok."
The first stage: eggs and larvae

Stag beetles spend up to six years of their life underground before they emerge as beetles.

For the majority of this time they exist in the form of a larva.

   The larvae spend most of their time munching away on rotting wood, building up a massive fat reserve which will see them through their life as an adult beetle.

When fully grown, larvae can reach as much as 8cm (*approximately 3 inches)* long.

However, they start life much, much smaller…

The journey begins when, in late June or July, the female stag beetle burrows down up to around 30cm (12″) into the ground to lay her eggs.

She will lay up to 21 eggs in the soil near to some rotting wood, which will become the home to any larvae that hatch.

The eggs are only a few millimetres long

    and cream in colour and hatch after about three weeks.

In the time between being laid and hatching, the eggs become rounder in shape and a tiny larva will be visible developing inside.

This larva is emerging from its egg case.

When it’s ready to hatch, a larva will slowly nibble its way out of the egg case.

At this point it is almost pure white, semi-translucent and only a few millimetres long.

Over the next few hours the distinctive orange head will develop.

This is just the beginning of a long journey towards beetlehood…

For the next 5-6 years the larva remains underground at all times, moving between the rotting wood and the surrounding soil.

   ​​​​​​​

As it chews through the wood it leaves behind a network of tunnels and C-shaped chambers.

The larva’s skin becomes tight as it gradually grows and eventually it has to shed its skin.

The head-case splits open allowing the larva to gradually wriggle free of its old skin.

This process will happen four times across the larva’s life.
Quadal

**Quadal** is a Robot that works alongside Nathaniel Zib in Makuhero City.

## Biography

### **Early years**

Quadal has assisted Zib for many years at the Hero Factory. He designs new armor and observes the Alpha 1 Team's missions.

### ***In The Original Series***

* Rise of the Rookies
* Ordeal of Fire
* Savage Planet
* Breakout
* Brain Attack

In Trials of Furno

After the Alpha Team battled XPlode and Rotor on Merak 9, Zib sent Quadal to design new armor based on that mission data. Whilst hovering in that direction, Quadal came across Hero Factory's founder, Akiyama Makuro.

In Core Crisis

After another confrontation with XPlode and Rotor, this time on Lemus 2, Quadal scanned William Furno's Hero Core, and realized that it was running out of energy. Quadal attempted to scan Preston Stormer as well, but the Alpha Team Leader discouraged him.

In The Enemy Within

When Preston Stormer was diagnosed as being infected with corruptive nanobots and went berserk, he seized Quadal and threw him into the air. William Furno managed to save the Robot, however.

In Von Nebula

Before a mission to New Stellac City, Quadal insisted that Stormer try out some new armor of his. Stormer gave in and was modified by Big Joe in the Retrofitting Tower. Ultimately this new armor saved the Hero's life when Stormer was shot by the villain Thunder's Nebula Gas Cannon.

Sometime later Quadal assisted in the Upgrade and subsequent training of several members of Alpha 1.

BEETLE (STAG) Lucanus cervus

Beetle (Stag)
Overview:
The stag beetle is Britain's largest insect and one of the most *well-known* of all the beetles.
The male is easily recognised because of his mouthparts which have evolved into enormous jaws, resembling the antlers on a stag's head.

## **Overview:**

   **Distribution**: Southern and central Europe.

In Britain, they are found in southern and southeastern areas of England.

**Habitat**: Broad-leaved woodlands, especially oak, but also parks and gardens where there are hedgerows, tree stumps and logs.

**Size**: Dark, *violet-brown* elytra (*wing cases*) with *reddish-brown* antlers (*female's antlers are much smaller than the male's*).

Larva is *creamy-white.*

***Life-span*:** The larva lives *3-5* years.

Adults live only between the months of May and August.

**Food**: Larva eats rotting wood and roots.

It is thought that the adult either eats tree sap or nothing at all.

The stag beetle is Britain's largest insect and one of the most *well-known* of all the beetles.

The male is easily recognised because of his mouthparts which have evolved into enormous jaws, resembling the antlers on a stag's head.

Despite their fearsome appearance, these antlers are useless for biting, and are used to fight other males.

It is the smaller female we need to be wary of - her tiny antlers may look less threatening but they can inflict a sharp nip!

Unfortunately, the stag beetle is now rare in Britain, mainly due to loss of suitable habitat.

Read on to find out how you can help.
BEETLE (STAG) Lucanus cervus (4)

## **The Future:**

The stag beetle is one of the species chosen by the Government to be included in its Biodiversity Action Plan.

This means that it is being given special help to increase its numbers.

A stag beetle survey is underway and when its current distribution is known for certain, conservation strategies can be worked out.

In some areas, owners of woodland are already leaving a proportion of dead or dying timber to help the animals and plants rely on this.

The stag beetle will also benefit from this policy.

**You can help too:**Build a bug hostel, bury a bucket of woodchip or simply leave any tree stumps in your garden to rot down naturally in a log pile.

Occasionally, stag beetle larvae may even be found in compost heaps.

The more decaying wood there is around, the more places there are available for the female stag beetle to lay her eggs.

By helping in this way, we can all play a part in making sure that the stag beetle has a good chance of a safe future.
Indians

About stag and scarab beetles

The megadiverse ***Scarabaeoidea*** (*scarabs, stags, and bess beetles*) consists of over 31,000 species that are distributed worldwide and includes many important agricultural pests, agents of biological control of dung and dung flies, important pollinators, and species used as habitat bioindicators (*Jameson and Ratcliffe, 2002; Ratcliffe, et al., 2002*).

Despite their ecological, evolutionary, and economic significance, there is an overwhelming lack of expertise on these insects.

The lack of knowledge is of concern because many species are invasive agricultural and economic pests.

Scarab beetles include beneficial and destructive species.

The group is ecologically diverse with species that feed on roots, fruits, leaves, and rotting wood; those that feed on vertebrate carcasses, dung, and humus; and those that live in the nests of vertebrates and invertebrates.

The group is environmentally important, with many species of conservation, agricultural, biocontrol, cultural, and ecoservice value.

Ecosystem services provided by scarab dung beetles are estimated at over $380 million in the U.S. (*Losey and Vaughan, 2006*).

In the cattle industry, dung beetles assist with the removal of dung, allowing for growth of consumable plant material, increased nitrogen availability for forage, and reduction of pestiferous flies and parasites.

Some scarabs serve as effective plant pollinators and are essential keystone species in their native habitats, such as monkey beetle chafers in southern Africa, *Cetonia* scarabs on European *Viburnum* bushes, and masked chafers that pollinate tropical palms and arums.

Other scarabs, however, can be economically and agriculturally destructive.

Bess Beetle

## **Structures and Functions:**

The Bess Beetle is an invertebrate which means it has no backbone.

It is classified in a group called Insects.

These kinds of animals have three body parts, head, thorax, and abdomen.
The Bess Beetle's unique structures perform many functions.

The beetle has 3 body parts, the head, thorax, and abdomen.

The Bess Beetle has 2 sections of its thorax.

The two sections let it move more freely.

The Bess Beetle has  tiny gold fringe.

They might help keep the Bess Beetle clean but it is not for sure.

The Bess Beetle has something called an elytra.

This helps protect the hind wings.

They have things called mandibles that serve as jaws.

These help the Bess Beetle eat.

Tiger Beetle Anatomy

Tiger beetles have body parts that you can find on most other insects – six legs; two pairs of wings; and a body divided into three parts (head, thorax, and abdomen).

They also have some parts that are distinctive to their group – large eyes that together make the head wider than the thorax; long, thin mandibles; long, thin legs; and distinctive patterns of markings on the hardened *fore-wings* (***elytra***).

## **Tiger Beetle Body Parts:**

* **Head:**

The large eyes are very sensitive to movement; the long, thin antennae detect barriers and food; the *finger-like* palpi serve as fingers to manipulate food into the mouth.

The mandibles chew up and crunch food so that body liquids can be sucked in; the labrum or upper lip helps hold and manipulate food.

Inside the head are the brains and muscles for the mandibles.

* **Thorax:**

This part of the insect body is dedicated almost completely to locomotion.

All six legs and the two pairs of wings are attached here.

The trochanter and coxa serve as hinges between the legs and the body of the insects.

They allow for the rapid running movement of tiger beetles.

The length of the femur and tibia also help with running speed.

Various spurs on the legs are used for grooming, traction against the ground, and perhaps protection from enemies.

The tarsi contact the ground and help propel the beetle forward when running.

The hard *fore-wings* (***elytra***) serve as protective covers for the clear hind wings that are folded under them when at rest.

In flight the elytra are extended forward at right angles to the body and the hind wings are unfolded to their full lengths.

Each species of tiger beetle has *different-colored* elytra that are used for camouflage and for reflecting heat.

* **Abdomen:**

This part of the insect body is made up of many segments, and it contains the organs for digestion, breathing, and reproduction.

On tiger beetles it also holds the large ears that can hear *high-frequency* sounds such as those made by bats.

## **Take a Close Look at Tiger Beetles:**

Now you know the parts of a tiger beetle.

Next explore these beetles *up-close* and in detail, in the *slide-show* below of these other tiger beetles.

In case you are wondering why there are grey lines on each image, they are used to show the size of each tiger beetle.

Microscopists call these lines scale bars, because they let a person know the size of an object.

All the grey lines below are equal to 5 millimeters, or half a centimeter.

The reproductive system a female Lucanus cervus

Below is a wonderful view of the reproductive organs of a recently deceased female **Lucanus cervus**.

This female was captured at the end of the season, 30 July 2012, in Colchester, Essex, UK, and sent to Japan for further studies, unfortunately it did not survive the journey.

Even so, Dr. Masahiko Tanahashi was able to dissect her and share his finding with the website.

**Lucanus cervus**females have a pair of ovaries with 12 ovarioles each [1]; the ovarioles are spread out, not bunched up like in most diagrams [2].

However, one can't see all of them because they were rather damaged.

This is not at all surprising, she had reached the end of her reproductive life by the time she was shipped.

However, judging from the presence of the “*yellow bodies*” in the proximal part of every ovariole, she might have deposited at least 24 eggs.

A very productive life for a stag beetle!

   **More** good news: the ***Pichia yeasts*** in the***mycangium***of the dead female survived the journey, therefore Dr. Masahiko Tanahashi was able to culture and isolate them successfully, see below.

This was the main reason why this female went to Japan because it seems that each stag beetle species has its own specific **Pichia** yeasts and there are no **Lucanus cervus** in Japan [3].

This female would have passed on these *micro-organisms* to the next generation when she laid her eggs.

The Jade Palace is a large, elaborately designed, and sacred palace that overlooks the Valley of Peace on top of Jade Mountain and can be seen for hundreds of miles. It is known to be a symbol of justice, honor, and courage.

Like many other palaces, the Jade Palace and its grounds are a complex that serve as a grand residence for kung fu masters and students. Many masters have lived and trained in the palace since its construction, presumably under Oogway and Knut's instruction. The palace currently serves as the home of knut's heirs Daniel and Elida, their friends Olivia, Shifu, as well as Po the Dragon Warrior and the Furious Five.

The palace itself is the outside structure for the sacred Hall of Warriors, which contains all the artifacts of past masters, the Moon Pool, the Dragon Scroll, and the thousand scrolls of kung fu. The palace grounds contain an arena for public tournaments, a training hall with an outdoor training courtyard and student barracks, a bell tower, and Peach Tree Hill (the resting place of the revered Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom).

BEETLE (STAG) Lucanus cervus (2)

## **Stag Beetle Habits:**

   Breeding: Adult male stag beetles emerge in May or June, depending on the weather, followed shortly after by the females.

The male has strong wings underneath the wing cases (*elytra*) and he flies at dusk in search of females.

The flight can be rather erratic and the beetle sometimes flies indoors through open windows or doors, attracted by the light - and sometimes he bumps into things and crash lands.

When the male has found a female, he lifts his head, opens his antlers wide and walks around her, showing himself off.

If two males are interested in the same female, they will fight each other, using their antlers like a male deer.

The stronger of the two turns the other onto his back and the loser retreats.

Injuries are rare as the encounter is more of a display of aggression than a dangerous fight.

After mating, the female finds some moist decaying wood in which to lay her eggs.

She prefers oak woodlands but where these are scarce she will seek out logs and old tree stumps in parks, gardens and hedgerows.

When she has laid her eggs, she dies, and the male does not last much longer.

Each egg hatches into a creamy coloured larva, looking like a fat, wrinkly grub with an *orangey-brown* head and six stubby legs.

It has tough jaws for tearing up and chewing decaying wood.

This type of food is not very nourishing, so it takes three to five years before the larva is ready to turn into a pupa.

The adult beetle develops inside this pupal case, which remains hidden inside a decaying tree stump all through the winter.

The *fully-formed* adult beetle will not emerge until the weather becomes warmer in May or June of the following year.

The cycle then starts over again, as the males fly off in search of a mate.

The flight season lasts only until August and by the time winter arrives, all the adult beetles have died.

Feeding: Although it is known that the larva eats decaying wood, scientists are not certain whether adult stag beetles eat anything at all.

Some think that they use a special tongue to lick the sap from trees, but others believe that they eat nothing at all.
Rare beetle rediscovered in Wales

For the first time in more than 75 years, the short-necked oil beetle, previously believed to be extinct in Wales, has been spotted in Pembrokeshire.

April 7th, 2020 at 2:29 pm.

The short-necked oil beetle (**Meloe brevicollis)**, one of the UK’s rarest oil beetle species, has been found in Wales for the first time since 1944, says nature conservation charity Buglife.
The beetle was rediscovered in Pembrokeshire by Annie Haycock.

Pembrokeshire now supports the only known modern record of this species in Wales.

According to Buglife, short-necked oil beetles “are identified by their rectangular-shaped thorax (*which is wider than it is long*), its short and straight antennae, which are slightly thickened at the tips, and its shiny, blue-black colour.”

Measuring up to 24mm in length, short-necked oil beetles are one of five species of oil beetle found in the UK.

They are nest parasites that use solitary bees as their hosts.

Oil beetles lay hundreds of eggs in ground burrows.

Once hatched, the larva climbs up nearby flowers and waits.

When the time is right, it attaches itself to the back of a feeding bee, then disembarks once inside the bee`s nest.

Here, the larva feeds on the bee`s pollen and nectar, developing into an adult beetle before leaving the burrow.

## **What is a short-necked oil beetle’s favoured habitat?**

Short-necked oil beetles live in wildflower-rich cliff-top grasslands, heathlands and machair environments.

The best time to see them in from late March to June, when the adults are active.

## **Where else can short-necked oil beetles be found in the UK?**

Once more widespread, the short-necked oil beetle population declined dramatically during the 20th century.

There were no recorded sightings of the beetle in the UK between 1948 and April 2006, when it was rediscovered in south Devon.

It is currently known to exist on the island of Coll in the Inner Hebrides, Salisbury Plain and in south Devon.

**How you can help?**
If you think you have found a short-necked oil beetle, please send details of your sightings, along with a photograph(s), to info@buglife.org.uk.
BEETLE (STAG) Lucanus cervus (3)

## **Stag Beetles and Humans:**

In both Britain and on the Continent, stag beetles used to be much more common and widespread than they are today.

They are still declining in numbers, although Britain has many more than other European countries.
Southern England has the highest population of all, and they can also be found in parts of southern East Anglia.

Adult stag beetles are sometimes killed on purpose by people thinking that they are dangerous, but the biggest threat to them, as is the case with most threatened species, is destruction of their habitat.

Many woodlands have been cleared of fallen trees, depriving the female beetles of the damp, decaying timber they need for laying their eggs.
Bess Beetle (2)

## **Behaviors:**

The Bess Beetle behaves in many ways.

The Bess Beetle chews through wood and makes galleries and colonies.

Bess Beetles are very social.

The Bess Beetle is also very sensitive to air movement.

Bess Beetles communicate with each other with a sound called stridulation.

If they're disturbed they make a squeaky sound by rubbing their forewings (***elytra***)  on their abdomen.
