Character: Toph Bei Fong
Series: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Character Age: 12
Canon: Avatar: The Last Airbender is about a boy named Aang who has to save the world by mastering the 4 elements (Air, Water, Fire and Earth) and defeating the ruthless Fire Nation.

This is however, not his app. Joining him on his quest as his Earthbending ("bending" being the ability to control and manipulate certain elements) teacher, Toph is a blind girl who is extremely skillful in fighting by "feeling" the vibrations in the earth. With this heightened sense, she can locate and identify objects/people that are touching the ground.

Toph dislikes being pitied and is always eager to prove that she can carry her own weight. Independent, frank, tough and sarcastic, she ran away from home to join Aang and co.. She deliberately casts away her old way of life, frequently engaging in less than polite habits like picking her nose and lying in dirt despite being well-educated in manners. Toph might be prone to bouts of selfishness and bitterness, and isn't shy about criticizing or making fun of even her teammates, but she is courageous and loyal to her friends.

Sample Post:

So here I am, surrounded by weird idiots - not that that's anything new. Except now it’s with a dose of cactus juice! Just great! Why am I here? Fine, so maybe I can’t complain about having good land to stand on (don’t and will never like sand), but the company? All I did was to save the guy, and next thing I know, a whole bunch of them turn up and start singing and dancing around me. Then they try to make me take part in their song and shouting "EARTH!" in their lousy dance sequence, complete with cheesy poses. I don't even think anyone can bend "heart", anyway. ... No, I do not want a demonstration!

I'm getting outta here. ... Huh, what now, parting gifts for me? Guys, I don't need a "shotgun" or "laptop". Whatever these things are, I'm sure I can do fine with my Earthbending skills. Actually, it's great and all that you're trying to show your appreciation, but if this is the way you show it, a "Thank you Toph, for saving my life!" would be much, much better. My only real problem now is that I can't seem to locate Ba Sing Se. ... Hey, I'm sure you'd at least know where this is, right? Maybe you could be a bit more useful and tell me where I am.

What's this? A brochure? Oh, thank you so very much for this informative piece of paper; I'm glad you know how I used to get A+++ for reading things I can’t see! Ugh. I'm going to look elsewhere for information, you guys are useless. I knew there was a reason why I never liked asking for help. You’re lucky I’m in a relatively good mood today; I’ll give y’all an example of a helpful suggestion before I leave: to spare others of your song and dance, how about learning some self-defense? Far more useful and much more fun. And then you can kick zombie butt! Show them who's on top! Things like that!

... So much for being helpful. Look, whatever it was that I said, stop screaming "iyaaaaaaan" and "sobold", will you?
