Name: James Carmen
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Place of origin: Senlin Village, Earth Kingdom, World of Avatar
Species: Human (Metal Bender)
Alignment: CG
Occupation: Metalbending instructor
Appearance:
Skills: Metalbending; smithing; fermenting wine;
Personality: James is a calm person for the most part. He's steadfast in his beliefs and level-headed. He struggles with his metalbending, but learned through painstaking effort that it could be done. It was this effort that made him an excellent teacher. He enjoys his life, but sometimes wishes he could take a break. However, he has a responsibility, and he's going to keep at it.
Backstory: James's parents did their best to not take part in the war effort. They were born in Ba Sing Se, but relocated to Senlin after they had their son. They'd rather sit back and be able to provide for him than do their part and die trying. Like many others in Senlin, they became farmers, mostly of grapes. Eventually, they got into winemaking, a skill and love that they passed onto James and his sister Tia. They were afraid when James's earthbending powers began to appear, and rightfully so; at the age of 12, he was captured and put into a bender camp by the Fire Nation. He stayed there until freed by the Avatar and his friends, when he decided to join the war effort. He was tired of being treated like a freak and put down for what he could do. He served in the Earth Kingdom Army, and met Toph Beifong numerous times throughout the war. Though the two never became close, she chose to teach him the basics of metalbending. He didn't show much promise at the time, but over the course of the war he found the ability. After the war, he returned to his parents farm, where, two years later, he would meet Toph again, travelling through the city. Demonstrating his abilities to her and thanking her for training him, she offered to let him teach at her metalbending academy in Republic City. He moved there and has become an instructor.
