Brief History: Kofoid was born in the eastern air temple, where he trained to become an airbender his childhood life was very simple. Nothing exciting ever happened. His parents lived long happy lives. At a young age Kofoid made got his own flying bison which has remained with him to this day. Kofoid was witness to an attack however as a child. His parents hid him away as dark bending raiders attacked the temple. He watched the fighting from a window, but wasn't seen. The carnage left him scared as a child. This was the start of his detachment questioning how people could kill each other so easily.

When the time came Kofoid was 19 and he left the temple with his flying bison and explored the world. While exploring he got tangles up in an adventure. He and some friends he made, a light bender, earth bender, non bender, and fire bender explored the world. While traveling with the fire bender Kofoid became more curious about fire and how it can be alive and how its pure energy.

One day when Kofoid was 24 he and his friends stumbled across where the spirit world was very close to our world. A swamp where spirits of all sorts lurked. Then a demon tricked them into the swamp. In the swamp the fire demon tried to divide them, but to no avail. When it decided to fight them all at once. It was a hard and long fight. The fire demon was very powerful and Kofoid was the last one standing at the end of the fight. He felt a rage inside seeing all of his close friends dead. This made him very angry and bitter.

For the next few years Kofoid became a vigilante going around and saving people from evil bender and non-benders. But he was relentless and merciless. When ever he caught a criminal he cut them down where they stood no question. When one day Kofoid was 28 and he ran into a women named Lilia. After a year of seeing each other they got married and moved into Kofoids parent's home. Shortly after the did Kofoids parents died. He got even more angry but Lilia calmed him and taught him death is not to be something to fear but everyone has their time. They have to make do with it and do they best they can. This appealed to Kofoid as something close to redemption for him. He accepted it wholeheartedly.

Lilia and Kofoid had two children and one was a non-bender named Orthel and another was an Air bender named Rika. They grew up with no problems and peacefully. When Orkel was 38 his children had moved on and left him and Lilia alone. Kofoid had long since let go of his hate and anger. He was at peace now, until one day everything changed.

One night Lilia, his wife became possessed. The fire demon form decades ago found a way to find Kofoid and regenerated its power. It took possesion of Koifoid's wife and they had a long hard battle her being a fire bender. The demon didn't think Kofoid would kill Lilia so he gave it his all. Kofoid however would not kill Lilia, instead after he hit her with a sound burst she came to her normal senses. She saw everything the demon saw like imprisoned in her own mind. She pleaded with Kofoid, saying. "Please kill me, please end it." Kofoid cried and he became angry again. The demon quickly regained control but kofoid destoryed it along with his wife with a sounds blast that disoriented them and then tore them apart with airbending. He became detached here and learned some fire bending, but learned how to have air make fire bending stronger.

Kofoid is now 42 and exploring the world one day. Hoping to find a fire bender worth training what he learned. He continues to search with hsi flying Bison.
