⌈Physical Description⌋
Asad is a tall man of adequate muscle mass and tanned dark skin, rather typical of an Earthbender. He has long, dark brown hair that he has tied back in a large plume. Across the bridge of his nose is a straight horizontal scar that ends at the midpoint of each eye. There are also a few scattered scars along his body, two rather large and deep ones obvious in his mid-torso. His eyes, though green, usually appear rather dull and void. On his right forearm is a blue tattoo. The wrist guard he wears covers it, but the small sliver that comes out from the guard appears to be a chain link of some sort.
He would appear to most as a disheveled, grumpy man at first. He looks to be a drinker at first glance, which is certainly true. He often has a tired-looking expression as well if nothing interesting is happening.
His outfit consists of a torn sky blue shawl with a large collar to cover his face if it were to stand up. However, it sags and only covers part of his barely-shaven chin. His torso is almost completely exposed, showing a well-trained body in the open. Upon his wrists he wears iron guards and a strange metal pauldron on his left arm that appears to go upwards like a set of upside-down wings. He wears very baggy blue pants as well, the same color as his shawl, that cease to bag when met by his shoes. They appear to be as boots, provising shin guarding and covering, but the toe and heel are open on them. Around his waist is a rope tied to create a place to hold his drink and blade.

⌈Potential Interest⌋
After his adventures with her and seeing her in traditional Earth Kingdom garb, he has developed something of an interest in the Chi Blocker, Xue Zamora.
⌈Skills⌋
- ✦ Discipline || While it may not exactly seem like a skill at first, he has spent many years training his mind and body to be disciplined. He can keep calm, cool and collected in near any situation.
✦ Swordsmanship || Along with Earthbending, he spend his life training in the way of the blade. A very presitigious school taught him, and he takes his teachings very seriously.
✦ Tough Body || Earthbending training has hardened his body to endure more pain than the normal person. Blunt pain, that is. Sharp pains and cuts still get him hard. But if you throw a rock at him, he'll more than likely shrug it off.
⌈Power Abilities⌋
Secondary Ability: Sandbending
- ✔ Earth Bending || Considered a Master, Asad is a trained Earthbender. He can bend the Earth to his will for combat or any practical situation. It has become second nature to him, just like the sword.
✔ Golem Bending || Asad is infamous for his ability to bend "golems." While not animate, they move as if relying on their own will as he controls them. Few have faced his golems without breaking many bones.
✔ Armor || He can envelop himself in earth to make him appear as one of his golems in a form of protective armor.
✔ Way of the Sword || As an extremely practiced swordsman, his skill with a blade can allow him to cut through solid trees, even through rock. His skill with a blade rivals that of his Bending.
⌈"There are three certainties in life: honor, death... and hangovers."⌋
⌈Other⌋
Depending on where they are in the Earth Kingdom, Asad may have to wear a disguise of sorts. It will usually consist of a big hat to hide his face and bandaging across his torso to hide away his scars. He may also ditch the pauldron as well, being a key defining feature of his.
⌈Habits⌋
- ❖ Drinking || Put a drink in front of Asad and he will drink it. It does not matter how much or how little he has had to drink already. He especially likes alcohol that burns a bit on the way down.
❖ Nosy || He doesn't quite understand when to not ask, poke and prod about something. He may even get a bit childish in attempting to obtain this information with some whining, complaining, pleading, bargaining, etc.
❖ Blunt || Unlike his blade, Asad is blunt in his speech. He doesn't really butter words up or try to soften them at all. Even when he's trying not to be, he may come off as rude now and then when he speaks.
❖ Paranoia || He often seems to think that someone is watching or following him, whether he is or isn't.
❖ Childish || In an attempt to mask his own anguish with his past, he tends to be very lax, lazy, silly and sarcastic when with people he trusts.
⌈Likes⌋
- ♥ Liquor || Self-explanatory, he enjoys his drink.
♥ Celebrations || Living the life of an outcast, Asad enjoys being part of big parties and celebrations where he can let loose and have some fun for once.
♥ Acceptance || Somewhat serious, but he enjoys the feeling of being accepted. Being banished from his home and spending his life roaming from place to place alone, he loves the company of others. "The sword is poor company for a long road."
♥ Music || Asad very much enjoys music and plays the pan flute himself.
⌈Dislikes⌋
- ✘ Sleeping || His dreams are usually nightmares, flashbacks to his past. He doesn't enjoy them at all and generally puts off sleep as long as he can.
✘ People who are too uptight || Banished from his life of strict discipline, he does not enjoy being bossed around much or being around people who do not take jokes well.
✘ Killing || Despite having to do it, he dislikes killing. The act of taking a life is not difficult to him, but the guilt afterwards becomes heavy.
⌈Strengths⌋
- ✪ Environments: Rock and Desert || Put him in an area with rock or sand and he will have a serious advantage with his bending ability.
✪ Duels || One-on-one, he usually comes out on top. It is rare that he fights "dirty," so to say, but he will do what it takes to survive.
✪ Extended Fights || A trained body makes it easy for him to stay in fights for a while, provided he isn't taking a lot of damage.
⌈Weaknesses⌋
- ⌘ Social Skills || He lacks them. He tends to insult, offend, and offend people somehow without really trying. He just speaks his mind how it comes to his mind, for better or worse.
⌘ Water || He doesn't like it. He doesn't like being wet, he doesn't like his sand getting wet, and he certainly isn't a fan of fighting Waterbenders with any sort of skill.
⌘ Publicity || It could cause trouble not only for him but for any companions he has if he were to go into a fair portion of the Earth Kingdom without concealing his identity. Being a wanted criminal has its downfalls, it would seem.

⌈Personality⌋
Prideful | Driven | Irresponsible | Light-hearted/Heavy-hearted
Asad is very prideful, holding his skill and his honor above almost all else. Protecting what shreds of his honor remain is extremely important to him. On that note, he is driven to find a way to regain this honor. By finding the true killer and clearing his name, he hopes to one day find his own peace and security. To free himself from the life of a wanderer is what drives him to get up every day.
Despite what the former might tell you about his personality, he is rather irresponsible. Yes, he is driven to regain his honor and clear his name. But he can be pretty lazy, nonchalant, and on occasion tipsy. Even drunk. With that said, he appears to be a rather light-hearted man. He rarely seems to take things too seriously and looks to have fun whenever he can. However, guilt and worry weigh down this otherwise light heart. Asad has ghosts in his pasts that haunt him whenever he drops that light guise even for a moment.

⌈History⌋
Discipline was Asad's life from the moment he was born. Being put through a prestigious swordsman school by his father that taught him discipline, honor, and respect was enough without him discovering a natural ability to bend earth well. The entirety of his life up to the point he was sixteen was him training his body, mind and spirit in the way of the sword and the ways of an earth bender. He barely even had time for his family and private matters, never getting to spend time with his younger half-brother. But soon enough he was realized as a true man and warrior by his school and parents. Soon enough he was appointed to security duty in his small town, but his skill would draw the attention of a larger city's leaders. They requested that he come work for them on bodyguard duty. He and his family had never been so honored.
His time there was only a short year. An attack from a group of poor bandits caught the entire city by surprise, Asad especially when he was too slow to stop them from killing the man he was protecting. He managed to cut most of them down in the end, but he had failed to protect the man, despite almost avenging him. One of these bandits escaped as Asad finished his men off. When he was discovered, it was his own strength that was to be his downfall. The other guard members who found him believed that these men were too weak to have outsped Asad, and that it was Asad himself who cut down the man he was supposed to be protecting. He was ready to accept punishment for failing to protect him, but to be framed for his murder he would not allow. His honor would not permit dying for a crime he did not commit. Using his skills, he escaped the city and was branded an outlaw. A wanted criminal.
Since that day three years ago he has spent his time wandering the lands, looking for the man who took his honor from him. The criminal who got away. In the process, he has had to fight and defeat many of his former allies. But Asad did not know if this man was in the Earth Kingdom anymore. He took to exploring the world in its entirety, both to get away from those who would hunt him and to search for the killer. And when he does, he would bring that killer to justice, back to the Earth Kingdom to stand trial and prove Asad's innocence. But for now, it's just him, his drink, his blade, and a long road...
