[size=18]|CHARACTERISTICS|

Personality: Nanami is a very head-strong independent young woman. She doesn’t like authority figures telling her what to do or trying to control her. Being orphaned since the age of 5, she has most always done things on her own. She has a soft spot for children, especially those who don’t have families, and older women (an older woman in her tribe kind of took care of her after her parents passed). Nanami is usually a very calm and collected girl, unless you upset her. Then, just like the ocean, she becomes capricious: hot tempered and unrelenting. If she has her mind set on something, she will allow no one and nothing to come between her and her goal.
Personal Strengths: Quick on her feet, good deductive reasoning skills, knowledgeable in the healing arts, semi-good fighter
Personal Weaknesses: Hates to see people in pain, always wants to help the needy at any cost, sometimes quick to judge strangers
Hamartia: Over confidence
Personal Hero: Katara
Dreams and Ambitions: “To heal the world”

Likes: Swimming, penguin sledding, studying, playing with her hair, finding trinkets to collect

Dislikes: Violence, death, rudeness, fire, and heights

Brief History: Nanami was born in the Southern Water Tribe to Izumi and Yuudai Yukimura. When she was only five years old her parents fell ill and none of the healers in the tribe could cure them of their sickness. After the passing of her parents a local woman, Naomi, took her in and raised her as her own. She and her daughter, Lucinda, taught Nanami water bending and healing. She chose to learn more of the healing arts as opposed to offensive bending, as she despises violence. However, she did learn a fair bit of defensive bending as to protect herself should the situation ever arise. Since she was surrounded by snow and ice for most of her life, she learned ice/snow bending.
She grew up wishing she could have known her parents more but heard nothing but good things about them from the tribespeople. Her father, Yuudai, was a non-bender but roughly 300 years ago, his family had earth benders in it. These benders committed a heinous crime, this upset the Avatar so he took away their ability to earth bend, leaving it dormant within them. This shamed the family, so they decided not to pass the story down to the following generations. This is why Nanami, Yuudai, Yuudai’s father and so on had no idea of their bending heritage. This ability has yet to manifest itself in Nanami’s life. Therefore she has dormant earth bending abilities. Her Mother, Izumi, was a water bender. This is where Nanami gets her water bending abilities.
Currently she is traveling to the Northern Air Temple to meet up with her “brother” Lucas. Before she left the Southern Water Tribe, Naomi began teaching her blood bending. Nanami was very intrigued by this form of bending but didn’t have much time to learn it, seeing as how she could only be taught once a month for 3 days. After many teaching sessions with Naomi, she realized how scary yet exhilarating blood bending can be. At this point, she has never used it on anyone/anything, she just knows the basics.
