|APPEARANCE|
Hair: Fa has brown hair that is pulled back into a braid to not get into his eyes when he is working. When not in a braid it can be very messy and hard to work with, so he usually keeps it in that nice and clean braided style. If a few small hairs in the front stick out then he does not mind that much as long as his long strands of hair stay in place.

His pants are usually tan in color and his shirts always seem to change with whatever he feels like wearing that day. His top is a vest like outfit but much larger and snaps on by a clasp and hook on his chest, it is held in place also by a piece of cloth attached to the shirt. His shoes are sandals but have some modification, due to his profession Fa attached metal over his toes, to protect from things dropping on them, and added leather to make it look more like a shoe. The bottom is that of a sandal and even goes on the same way. When working he has goggles, gloves, and an apron that is worn to protect his clothes.
Skin: His skin is tanned from spending all those years traveling from one place to another and may appear rough due to being out in the elements. His hands are also worn out for his age because he is constantly working with them and harming his fingers in the process.

Brief History:

Fa was born in a small village in the boarder of the Elemental Kingdom and the Earth Kingdom to a group of traveling merchants. At a young age he was shown the two kingdoms and their cultures, favoring the more diverse culture of the Elemental Kingdom. He had a childhood filled with wandering the deserts of the two kingdoms sometimes slipping into the Light Kingdom terrority to see its different customs and land. Fa found new ways to help his family and their group travel at a very young age by figuring out a way to pack the items more efficiently and even give them more room by developing a light weight and larger bag made of old animal skin. From there he started to grow more interested in inventing rather than selling.

His life as the member of a group of travelers went on and it was a very uneventful one. The only thing he finds good about this constant moving was the ability to see and meet so many different people. He was able to see how they acted, spoke, and even what they had with them. The hot air balloons that belonged to only the very wealthy amazed Fa and ever since he got to touch one in the capitol of the Elemental Kingdom he knew what he wanted to do with his life. At the young age of fifteen he told his parents and they were quick to decline, it was not until his grandfather convinced his parents to let him go. He told them that Fa had no interest in the family way of life and would continue on the tradition, but in a new way. They ended up agreeing and he became an apprentice of an inventor in the Elemental Kingdom Capitol. His life from there will be filled with good times and failures as his master taught him a way to deal with these moments when he fails.

Fa was never able to coup with the idea of failing and would spend hours even days working on a single project never getting that much work done. The minor details would have him working into late hours of the night and then sleeping late in the day. His master ended up letting him go and Fa found himself alone in the streets of the Elemental Kingdom Capitol. At the age of seventeen he had to resort to begging and selling small inventions such as children toys or items to help around the house or work place. One day his items took the eye of a noble who ended up giving Fa a large sum of money to start his own shop and produce more items for him to show the king. From there Fa received more grants from the noble and even the king and was able to produce more and more inventions. Fa was even able to master a faster prototype of the hot air balloon and is used by only the Elemental Kingdom. Fa took an oath to not give out his designs to anyone no matter what they offered

Fa resided in his home/workshop in the large capitol of the Elemental Kingdom cranking out invention after invention to meet the quota requited by his contract for a number of years. Somehow on the side he was able to explore the world of medicine and develop new ways to num patients for surgery so they would receive less pain and even an easier way to clean up wounds and remove arrows. Fa has been getting restless and wanted to close up shop or put a close friend in charge and go and explore the world. That traveling nomad in him is developing restless feet and is starting to surface. When he turned twenty-five he decided to put his closest friend in charge while he goes off and travel. The first destination on his map is the Fire Nation to the east and there he will be ready what the world has to offer.
