Fire Lord Zuko (original) (raw)

Male, 87, Firebender

"We've created an era of fear in the world. And if we don't want the world to destroy itself, we need to replace it with an era of peace and kindness."

Zuko was once the banished Prince of the Fire Nation, who later became Fire Lord after Aang defeated Fire Lord Ozai. With the Hundred Year War over, Zuko was ready to restore honor to himself and to the Fire Nation.

As Fire Lord, Zuko worked with Aang to establish the Harmony Restoration Movement, which was intended to be a peaceful way to remove the Fire Nation colonies throughout the Earth Kingdom. However, after witnessing how intertwined the Fire Nation colonies were with the Earth Kingdom citizens, he decided that it would be better to regulate the balance of power than removing them completely. This lead to the founding of the United Republic of Nations, a place where all people can live in peace and harmony.

Three years ago, Zuko turned over the reins of the Fire Nation to his daughter. Officially, he's retired, but unofficially, he still travels the world as an ambassador for world balance.

This statue of Zuko stands in the center of the busy Central City Station, and is a reminder of the many accomplishments that Fire Lord Zuko made while helping build Republic City.
