Full Name: (if you are unsure how to name your character, go here: http://forums.avatarspirit.net/index.php?topic=10938.0
   
Nicknames and Aliases:
The Iron Dragon
   
Gender:
Male
   
Age:
39
   
Sexual Orientation:
straight

Element:
Earth



Hair Color:
Black
   
Eye Color:
Red
   
Height:
5'11"
   
Weight:
210 lbs
   
Oddities:
-Gorron is known for his ability to eat and ingest pretty much anything. It's almost as if his teeth and stomach are made of iron

- He has monstrous strength without the aid of his bending. For him to open a duel with his bending rather than his fist would be a testament to the strength of his opponent.
Personality:
{Strong,Impatient ,Intimidating, Proud}

Gorron's physical strength is unquestionable, even at his age his body shows no signs of quit and remains in top physical condition. However it was not his physical strength, or his bending alone that elevated him to the king of the Earth Kingdom, but a strong will that allows him to stand tall in front of his subordinates no matter the circumstance. He never wavers, or hesitates.

He's not a patient man. He absolutely hates to be left waiting, so punctuality is key to avoiding the wrath of Earth Kingdom's Iron Dragon. It's for this reason that he often butt heads with the son of Fire Lord Ianzok, even though he considers Aonani his nephew.

Gorron believes that the intimidation factor is a key factor that can decide a battle before it's begun. Though he's only average height, his wild black hair makes him appear even larger than he is, and a bit feral. Combine that with his prominent cheekbones, the many face piercings, red eyes, and the many stories of his monstrous strength perpetuated by the people of the Earth Kingdom and his presence alone can strike fear into the average man.

Like his childhood friend Fire Lord Ianzok, Gorron loves to fight. However unlike his dear friend his pride doesn't allow him to turn down a challenge. Because Gorron rose to power through the strength of his fist he freely accepts any challenge to his rule, only if he recognizes the strength of the one challenging him, though very few have ever actually challenged him. Weather that's out of respect for their leader, or fear of his strength is unknown.

Gorron doesn't believe the world needs another avatar, that one would be obsolete in this age. Who ever or whatever threatens the balance of their world can and will be dealt with by the power of the nations themselves.
   
Hobbies:

Fighting
Gorron loves the thrill of testing the strength of his fist against the might of others. It is his only true passion. In his youth he was a renown in the underground sport of pit fighting, which was banned by the former king of Earth Nation. The only man he ever lost to is the current Fire Lord.
      
Habits:

- Gorron is a powerful man with a short fuse. A bad combination. He has a bad habit of punching holes in the nearest wall whenever he gets frustrated, but it's better than punching out other people.

-Gorron publicly eats metal to up his intimidating reputation .
     
Likes/Loves:
  • Fighting
Dislikes/Hates:
  • Waiting
Strengths:
Earthbending
-Of course his earth bending is second to none in Earth Kingdom. He once bended an entire building just to demonstrate the fact.

Metal bending
-Though his earth bending skills are phenomenal, it's his metal bending that makes him a truly fearsome bender. He can freely shape natural metals to his will, even without the process of super heating the metal like a black smith. It's this ability that earned him the title Iron Dragon of Earth Kingdom. Some earth benders of old where known to surround certain parts of their body with stone for increased defense and destructive power. Gorron achieves a greater feat by molding metal to his body like armor.

- He also uses his abnormally strong teeth, along with his bending, to shape metal inside his mouth and fire them like projectiles.

Hand to Hand
-Even without his bending Gorron is a force to be reckoned with. His martial arts skills are considerable, but he prefers power through and knock his enemies out cold with brute force instead of fancy martial arts.

[/list]

[b]Weaknesses:

Impatience
- His lack of patience and short temper often got him into trouble with the law in his youth. Now it's an even grater detriment to him as a leader.

Can't swim
In deep water Gorron practically sinks like a stone.

Pride
He's a bit too proud of his own strength, and he believes everything can be solved by beating it to a pulp, making him a poor politician. Fortunately that's what his chief advisors are for




History:
The more detailed and the lengthier, the better; at least two detailed paragraphs. If you are a companion, include how their parent's died.

Narration
Book One: Hidden



Legend tells of a time long ago, when Benders were in a majority and technology fell short of prehistoric. Some of these legends start with the simple musings of a person who would soon become one of those legendary heroes. Perhaps these are stories you have heard? One simply word is a key to these tales. This word is simply the "Avatar".

So, you have heard the stories? Good. This will make everything much more simple for all of us. The legend I am going to begin is about journeys of a young Avatar, still ignorant to the ways of the world. However, this story is much different. How? It is very simple, actually. This story is different from the others because it takes place in a world where the Avatar has been nothing more than the whispering of folklore and where bending is a scarce as flying lemurs.

I guess it would be best to start this legend off like the others, wouldn't it? Then, I shall.

Long ago, the Avatar was a symbol of hope and prosperity. That all changed when Avatar Hotaru passed away. The cycle was expected to begin again as it always had, but when no Avatar was born for several decades, the Order of the White Lotus decided that the time of the Avatar had come and passed. The world fell into disarray for many years until all four Nations banded together. They brought peace and prosperity to the dying world.

That was centuries ago. The world has long since become comfortable with the idea of no Avatar as the "bridge between the spirit world and the human world" was severed and drifted into myth. Benders eventually became scarce as well, the art of element control slowly fading into the distance. It was no one's fault and there was nothing anyone could do to stop it. However, the ancient Order of the White Lotus made a prophecy that the Avatar would be reborn into a new life when a time of war came to the world.

Sixteen years ago, that prophecy became a reality when a small baby named Asha Jin was born. She was taken to the White Lotus not long after being found bending water, earth, and air around her nursery. The members of the Order were overjoyed, but also very distressed. If the Avatar was alive and well, then that could only mean a terrible evil was brewing below the surface of the seemingly perfect world. After more than a decade and a half, that evil still has yet to manifest, until now...
