Kya was trained by her mother and has a particular aptitude for using waterbending to heal both physical and spiritual wounds. She has no children and isn't married when she's introduced in The Legend of Korra. In the sequel comics, Kya reveals to Korra and Asami that she's a lesbian, and that when she told Aang he was " nothing but supportive ," since Air Nomad culture doesn't discriminate based on sexual orientation.
Aang and Katara's oldest child, Bumi, was born without any bending powers at all. Named after Aang's childhood friend and later King of Omashu , Bumi was as wild as his namesake and went on to become a commander in the United Forces. Bumi eventually became an airbender as an adult after Avatar Korra opened the portals connecting the mortal and spirit world. This released an influx of spiritual energy into the world that caused a number of non-benders to suddenly develop airbending abilities, Bumi among them.
Aang fathered three children with Katara. His first born son and eldest child, Bumi , was a nonbender. His second child, Kya , was his only daughter and the only waterbender among his children, and his youngest son, Tenzin , was the only child in the family who inherited Aang's airbending skills. While Aang loved all his children equally, as noted by Tenzin, Aang was burdened with the responsibilities of both being the Avatar and keeping the Air Nomad lineage alive after his passing.
This ultimately led to Aang spending more time with Tenzin than Bumi or Kya in order to pass his airbending knowledge and skill on to him, which also caused Aang's elder children to develop a slight resentment toward their father, which continued even in their adulthood. However, Tenzin also struggled with having to carry on the legacy of the Air Nation, and expressed his anxieties to Aang about his imperfections, such as the fact that he had not yet earned his mastery arrows in his teenage years, and the fact that he still lashed out sometimes, but Aang was quick to reassure him that Tenzin could never let him down, and he fully trusted him with the responsibility of the Air Nation's legacy.
Bumi, in particular, has had to deal with a lot of strain in regards to his Air Nomad roots as he was born a nonbender, which contradicted what his father wished, [1] and admitted to having never felt any sort of connection toward his father's people until he actually gained the ability to airbend. Hakoda met Aang shortly after the latter recovered from being fatally attacked. Hakoda and Aang first formally met when a heavily wounded Aang awoke on their decoy ship after weeks of unconsciousness.
Aang and Sokka disguised themselves as servants in order to reach the Earth King. When Aang and Sokka first encountered one another, the Water Tribe warrior immediately assumed the strange boy in the iceberg was a Fire Nation spy. Though this initial suspicion was quickly disproven, the young Avatar 's occasional carelessness often infuriated Sokka. When Aang tried firebending , resulting in Katara's burnt hands, Sokka pushed a concerned Aang into the ground angrily, yelling, "You burned my sister!
Along with Katara, he viewed Sokka's skeptical favoring of science over magic with some bewildered amusement, though he grew impressed with Sokka's engineering skills. Aang told Sokka that the latter was usually the one who came up with plans to help them, proving that he depended on Sokka's help and intelligence openly.
Through their travels around the world, the two boys formed a solid bond. Aang and Sokka often goofed around with each other, much to Katara's annoyance. The childlike nature of their characters usually resulted in them sharing a joke or reacting similarly to games and activities, such as both of them chuckling at the mention of "buttresses" [13] and making fun of Katara by imitating "spirit magic". Their relationship became more profound after the fall of Ba Sing Se , when Sokka sought Aang's advice and consolation after a moment of blunder in front of the invasion force.
Aang and Sokka became cooperative on the battlefield, as Sokka chose to assist Aang in his failed attempt to defeat Fire Lord Ozai.
When Zuko requested to join the group , Sokka refused on Aang's account, defending his friend's safety. Finally, however, when Aang did choose to accept him after the latter saved their lives, Sokka gave his consent, trusting Aang's judgment on the matter. Aang and Katara kissed outside the Jasmine Dragon. The first thing Aang saw upon waking from his one-hundred year sleep was the face of the fourteen-year-old waterbender, Katara, who was his liberator from the iceberg, along with her fifteen-year-old brother, Sokka.
His growing affection became more obvious when he made her a necklace to replace her grandmother 's, which had been lost earlier. Shortly after, he eavesdropped on one of her conversations, in which she had her fortune told by Aunt Wu , and gleefully celebrated after hearing that she would marry a powerful bender.
When having his own fortune told, Aang specifically asked Aunt Wu if she had seen anything in his future concerning a girl. He began acting "aloof" on Sokka's advice, who mistook Meng as his target, but this only succeeded in confusing Katara; finally, after seeing a woman react positively to the gift of a rare panda lily , Aang climbed to the top of Mt.
Makapu to bring Katara such a flower. This resulted in him finding out that the volcano was about to erupt after all, contrary to Aunt Wu's earlier prediction. Before leaving the village, Aang asked Aunt Wu if she had lied about his love life during his fortunetelling. Aunt Wu responded by saying: "I'll tell you a secret, young airbender: Just as you reshaped those clouds, you have the power to shape your own destiny".
When Aang, Katara, and Appa became lost in the labyrinth where the only solution to successfully navigating the tunnels was to trust in love, [23] Katara, who was embarrassed and shortly afterward dismissed the idea as crazy, suggested that by kissing, they could find their way out.
Aang's attempts to agree with her backfired and left her angry with him:. Eventually, desperation — and possibly mutual affection — led to the two trying out the suggestion. When Katara managed to catch Long Feng in a lie during their mission to convince the Earth King of Long Feng's treachery, her clever nature helped Aang come to the inner realization that he truly did love her. Aang later discovered that his love for Katara was the rebirth for his love of the deceased Air Nomads when he went to the Eastern Air Temple.
Pathik told Aang that controlling the Avatar State involved the releasing of various emotions in the seven chakras spread throughout the body, including earthly attachment. In order to open the seventh chakra, Aang was told that he must let go of his earthly attachment to Katara. He was reluctant to agree and eventually abandoned the process entirely when he had a vision that Katara was in danger, despite Guru Pathik's warning that it would lock his inner chakra and he would not be able to enter the Avatar State at all.
Aang received a kiss on the cheek from her on three known occasions, blushing each time. Similarly, her changing outfits usually had a positive influence on him. Facing separation from Katara, Aang attempted to tell her of his feelings, only to be interrupted by Sokka at the last minute. Believing that entering the Avatar State was their only hope, Aang isolated himself and meditated, hoping to let go of his attachment to Katara and unlock the seventh chakra.
Though Aang began to release the chakra and entered the Avatar State, the "Celestial Avatar Spirit Aang", [31] he was unable to complete the process due to being shot by Azula's lightning bolt. Consequently, Aang was prevented from clearing the seventh chakra and mastering the Avatar State, leaving his attachment to Katara intact. Later, he was successful in telling her his feelings and sneaked in a kiss or two as part of a daydream, [33] before realizing the whole scenario was merely a figment of his imagination.
Ultimately, however, with the upcoming battle with the Fire Lord, Ozai, the possibility that he might not come back alive from that encounter gave Aang enough courage and motivation to successfully declare his affections for her - in the form of a kiss, to which she responded by leaning in.
Afterward, though, she looked away, and her expression seemed slightly sad, although this could be interpreted as her thinking about the kiss and worrying about the fact that she may never see Aang again. Katara was Aang's only teacher to use positive reinforcement as a teaching method, something to which Aang responded well.
In addition, Katara remained the only person able to calm Aang out of the Avatar State. While others tried to renew Aang's optimism and hope, only Katara was successful. Aang grew jealous when the actress on the stage playing Katara confessed her love to the actor playing Zuko and said that she saw Aang as a brother. This upset Aang, and he later confronted her about it. She claimed it was only acting, but Aang was unconvinced. He thought that something should have happened between them since they kissed on the morning of the invasion.
Katara told Aang that she was just confused and that it "wasn't the right time". Aang tried to kiss her, only to have her pull back and reiterate, albeit a bit forcefully, that she was confused. She left Aang feeling heartbroken and stupid for his own actions. The two constantly called each other "sweetie", much to the annoyance of Sokka who remarked that they were giving him the "oogies". When battling Zuko's soldiers, Katara defended Aang after his shirt caught fire and boldly stated, "Stop.
Later, Aang thanked her for this, and they hugged. When making introductions, Katara cleared her throat so Aang would introduce her as "his girlfriend, Katara". One of the co-presidents and co-founders Won-Yee responded saying, "What an honor it is to meet Avatar Aang's first girlfriend", irritating Katara further. As Aang continued to impress the club members, he unknowingly increased Katara's jealousy over the attention he was receiving. When they were leaving, Aang remarked that the girls made him feel "like he was at home with his people", making Katara realize that her jealousy had been unnecessary.
This left her feeling guilty for her lack of faith in him, and when he thanked her for agreeing to stay the night, she dismissed his gratitude, claiming that she did not deserve it.
Back at Yu Dao, Katara helped Aang with his conflicting feelings. She also explained to him that when she saw Kori's family, she saw her future with Aang. She told Aang to go to a quiet place to think, and he departed with a passionate kiss with Katara. Aang decided that Katara was right. When Aang formed the Air Acolytes from the members of the fan club, Katara watched and admired from afar.
They later married, culminating with the birth of three children, a daughter, Kya, and two sons, Bumi and Tenzin. Even years after Aang's death, Katara still fondly remembers him.
On his journey around the world, Aang made many friends from all four nations. Though Bumi remained his only friend from before the Hundred Year War and Aang's one hundred years frozen in the iceberg, he mentioned that he had many friends from the other nations, including the Fire Nation. Now that those one hundred years had passed, most of his friends from pre-war were deceased, though he had made many new friends after being liberated from the iceberg.
Katara, Sokka, Toph, and Suki became his closest friends. He also formed friendships with former enemies, such as Zuko and Iroh. Appa was Aang 's beloved animal companion. Appa, the flying bison , was Aang's loyal pet and friend, as well as Team Avatar's primary means of travel. Aang first met Appa at the Eastern Air Temple when the latter was just a calf during a customary event where all airbender children are paired with a flying bison for life. After Aang offered an apple to Appa, the young sky bison seemed to bond with him immediately, affectionately licking his face.
Appa was faithful and protective toward Aang, and on various occasions he entered into battle to protect his little friend. Aang was similarly protective toward Appa; when Toph blamed the sky bison for leaving a trail of fur for Azula and her team to follow, Aang angrily defended Appa, [43] and later, when Appa was kidnapped by sandbenders in the Si Wong Desert , Aang became furious upon finding those that stole him and even entered the Avatar State upon discovering that his friend had been muzzled.
Despite his pacifistic nature, he destroyed all the sand-sailers and almost attacked the sandbenders, had it not been for Katara who managed to comfort and calm him down, [35] though the grief over losing Appa would stay with Aang for a while, overshadowing his generally cheerful demeanor.
During his time apart from Appa, Aang was often morose and driven to get him back, which he finally did when Team Avatar traveled to Lake Laogai. After reuniting with Appa, Aang cried in happiness. Aang possessed a flying bison whistle , which emitted sounds almost inaudible to humans, to summon Appa from a distance.
Additionally, he could command him to fly with a cry of "Yip-yip! Aang and King Bumi enjoyed riding down the Omashu delivery system. King Bumi, the earthbender ruler of the Earth Kingdom city of Omashu , was the only known still living peer of Aang, prior to Aang's disappearance one hundred years earlier. Aang fondly remembered how a young Bumi taught him to use Omashu's mail chutes as a giant super slide.
Now a supercentenarian, Bumi maintained the eccentric and unconventional thinking that caused Aang to dub him, "a mad genius". Aang had planned to receive teachings in earthbending under the king, [45] but after the Avatar found out that Bumi had been taken prisoner with no intention of escaping from his prison after the capture of Omashu, waiting for an unsaid opportunity, Aang was forced to find a new teacher.
Aang and Monk Gyatso shared a father-and-son-like bond. Monk Gyatso was an important figure in the young Avatar's life as a mentor, guardian, and surrogate father. According to Aang, Gyatso taught him everything he knew, [34] considering him to be the only father he ever really had. Gyatso and Aang's relationship came to an abrupt end, however, when the head monk, Pasang , decided to separate them, causing Aang to run away from the Southern Air Temple. Aang and Gyatso never saw each other again, as the Avatar ended up frozen for a century in ice and Gyatso was killed during the Air Nomad Genocide.
Aang received advice from Iroh as they searched for Katara and Zuko. Iroh was originally one of Aang's enemies, albeit indirectly, as the firebender was aiding his nephew, Prince Zuko, in capturing the Avatar and restoring his honor in the Fire Nation, actually attacking the team early in their journey. When Aang was unable to stop him, Iroh intervened and warned Zhao to let the spirit go, as upsetting the natural balance would not only affect the Water Tribe but also the entire world; when the admiral arrogantly refused and murdered the Moon Spirit, the old general defeated the rest of the Fire Nation soldiers before assisting Princess Yue in her sacrifice.
Some weeks later, a thoroughly sleep-deprived Aang was fighting a three-way duel between Zuko, Princess Azula, and himself; Iroh, along with Katara, Sokka, and Toph arrived to aid him.
Even against the combined efforts of the team, the prince, and the Dragon of the West, Azula was able to escape. Instead, Aang, who knew that Iroh had advised Toph, asked the wise firebender for guidance. I think you were very wise to choose happiness and love. Iroh joined the fray shortly thereafter, holding off the firebenders and the Dai Li long enough to allow Katara to escape with the injured Aang. Aang restored Korra 's bending abilities. Korra initially had no connection with the previous Avatar, having had difficulty with the spiritual side of bending.
She did, however, learn waterbending from Aang's wife, Katara, with whom she developed a strong bond, even sneaking to Republic City with her blessing. Eventually, Korra began having various visions of an adult Aang, along with Toph and Sokka. Korra initially was unable to figure out what the visions meant until she brought them up with Tenzin, who said that Aang's spirit could be trying to contact the young Avatar.
Korra finally made a connection with Aang when Tarrlok kidnapped her. In order to find a way to escape, Korra meditated and discovered Aang's struggles with Tarrlok's father, Yakone , forty years earlier. With these visions Korra managed to understand that Aang had been trying to warn her of Tarrlok, who had inherited his father's ability to bloodbend without a full moon.
When Korra had her bending taken away from her by Amon , she was at a low point in her life and ran off from her family and friends to be alone for a moment.
Suddenly, Aang's spirit appeared and approached the young Avatar, gently telling her that she had finally connected with her spiritual self and that "when we [reach] our lowest point [in life], we are open to the greatest change".
All of the previous Avatars appeared behind Aang, who compassionately used energybending to restore Korra's bending and passed on the knowledge to her. Unfortunately, his connection to Korra was permanently severed after UnaVaatu destroyed Raava, which also permanently severed Korra's connection to all of her past lives as well. Additionally, Korra was unable to regain this connection, leaving the damage permanent and her alone without the previous Avatar's past wisdom.
Kuzon was Aang's friend from the Fire Nation. The two had a close relationship, as "[they] used to get in and out of so much trouble together". Aang even referred to him as "one of the best friends he ever had". Kuzon also offered a helping hand when Team Avatar traveled into the Fire Nation.
When Aang was asked his name by a Fire Nation school teacher, he chose the name Kuzon as a cover name. Lin and Aang "got along famously" and enjoyed each other's company. During the Pro-bending Tournament 's finals, Lin said she had a hard time believing that "sweet-tempered Aang" was reincarnated into a hot-headed young girl. The lion turtle imparted Aang with the knowledge of energybending.
When Aang was desperate to find a way to defeat Ozai without killing him, he was highly unsuccessful. As he meditated consistently on the subject, he spotted a mysterious island at night near the coast of Ember Island , where he and his friends had made their hideout. An exhausted Aang sleepwalked his way onto the island, followed by Momo.
Aang awoke the next morning, believing his journey to the island was a strange dream, only to find the dream as a reality. Aang was not only on the island, but the island itself, which had been clearly near the shore of Ember Island, was now far away in the middle of the vast ocean. Aang had no idea where he was and stated his confusion aloud. Eventually, he found his way to the top of the island.
After trying to bend the earth beneath him, the island remained as smooth and silent as ever, which could only mean Aang did not stand on normal rock. A confused Aang looked deep within himself and summoned the spirit of Roku, who was just as clueless as Aang to their current location. After Aang had concluded from a series of conversations with Roku and their past lives that the only way to conquer Ozai was to kill him, he and Momo slept a while waiting to be found. When Aang and Momo awoke, the island was moving toward some mountains at the edge of the sea.
Shortly after realizing the island was moving, Aang jumped into the water and swam deeper down, where he found to his amazement the island to have gargantuan claws with which it paddled. When Aang resurfaced, he stated his amazement to Momo and believed the mysterious swimming island to be the shell of the largest animal in the world. Aang dived underwater again and stopped in front of what he found to be the creature's closed eyelid which opened behind him. The creature lifted Aang upward with its claw.
Aang emerged above the water surface standing on the claw of none other than a lion turtle. Aang bowed in respect before the ancient animal and asked him for help in his quest to vanquish Ozai without killing Ozai. The wise lion turtle informed the young Avatar of an ancient though forgotten art that could be used to defeat Ozai, and Aang regained confidence in his ability to defeat the Fire Lord without taking his life.
When Aang had Ozai at his knees but still as malevolent as ever, Aang used seismic sense to bend the earth around them which trapped Ozai.
Remembering what the lion turtle had told him, Aang used energybending to strip Ozai of his firebending, thus sparing his life but rendering him totally powerless.
Weak and dazed, Ozai found himself unable to even stand and fell limply to the ground. In the process, it was revealed that Aang had become a fully realized Avatar. Aang could never have defeated Ozai the way he wanted to without the lion turtle's help. When Sokka, Toph, and Suki joined Aang shortly after Momo had, the three friends expected Ozai to be dead, but to their surprise, they were mistaken.
Aang explained that he had extracted the firebending power out of Ozai's body, which bewildered his three friends even more. When Toph asked him what sage or master had trained Aang to extract the bending power out of a bender's body, Aang answered honestly, showing his great respect for the lion turtle. Aang found Momo in the Southern Air Temple.
Aang discovered Momo , a winged lemur , while wandering about the ruins of the Southern Air Temple. Amazed to find a creature ties to his culture to still be alive, Aang quickly befriended the lemur and claimed him as a pet, naming him after the peach Momo was holding at the time.
After Momo joined the group, he was mostly seen perched on Aang's shoulder, and they were quite close. She recalled how Aang felt about the destruction of his entire culture and revealed that he had sought meaning in his suffering, which eventually led to peace. She urged Korra to do the same and guided her to take her first steps again in a long time. Katara continued to help Korra over the next two years until she was physically fit again.
Katara had a warm, compassionate, and caring personality and often acted as a motherly figure to the group, something that often irritated the rebellious Toph. Her inner strength kept Aang and their friends together through their most difficult experiences, even in the absence of parental figures. While the team traveled through the Si Wong Desert, she was able to hold the group together in its most desperate moments.
According to Sokka, she largely prevented their family from falling apart and took on many responsibilities to the point where she filled the void left by their mother, so much that he pictured her in place of their mother. Even if she had to hide her identity, Katara never turned her back on people who needed her. Overall, Katara is often marked by a fierce determination to aid others and herself stated that she would never turn away from people who need her help, even if she had other priorities at the moment.
She was even willing to defend Fire Nation civilians, such as when she helped the village of Jang Hui, [1] and fought her former teacher Hama , [54] who was from the Southern Water Tribe to defend the Fire Nation village she was living in. This strong desire often frustrated others, particularly Sokka. Katara was marked by a fierce desire to learn waterbending, viewing it as a part of her and her culture that needed to be expressed. Her enthusiasm for waterbending caused her to constantly train herself in the art despite she originally did not have a teacher and learnt whatever little she could with great ambition, ignoring the criticism of Sokka.
She became overjoyed when she finally found a master to teach her formally. Katara was portrayed as the most mature member of the group, rarely taking part in Sokka and Aang's goofy pranks and Toph's less silly ones, though she did have a sense of humor.
She was a bit of a stickler for morality, even to the point of causing Sokka and Aang to faint from shock when she stated she wanted to pull a scam, as she had berated Toph for scamming people. Her loss was part of what drove her in her fight against the Fire Nation, although she did not exhibit as much outward prejudice as her brother. Although Sokka told Toph that Katara could be a pain and would get "involved and in-your-business", [53] she is understanding of other people's privacy, continually scolding her brother for snooping around Hama's inn and rummaging through her personal belongings.
On the other hand, Katara could be overly domineering. For all her kindness, she was sometimes self-righteous, had a nasty temper, and could be fierce when provoked. With lack of sleep, this side of her can quickly become more apparent. Combined with her strong sense of compassion, this gave Katara a strong sense of justice and she would run headlong into often dangerous situations to help others, which was best illustrated when she faked to be an earthbender to mix with innocent earthbenders in the prison rig when she was not a fighter yet, [26] challenged at the greatest waterbending instructor in the Northern Tribe for forbid women from learning combat focused waterbending, and destroying factories for the severe contamination at Jang Hui while she infiltrated to the Fire Nation.
Despite being one of the more compassionate members of the group, Katara was one of the least willing to let go of a grudge, especially against those who she felt had betrayed her trust. She held a considerable grudge against those who had threatened Aang or done things she considered morally wrong. However, Katara was sometimes willing to give people second chances.
With much reluctance, she allowed Jet to guide Team Avatar to Appa, and appeared to be saddened by his death. The loss of her mother at the hands of the Fire Nation caused Katara to be strongly express her emotions about that day to her teammates, bringing up the topic in situations that tested the feelings of both her friends and herself, reinforcing her relationship with her mother, albeit indirectly.
An example of this was when Katara described her mother as just hers and without giving a second thought that she was Sokka's as well, or when the waterbender told her brother that he did not love their mother the way she did after Sokka tried to stop Katara from tracking Kya's murderer, greatly upsetting him. When she got the chance to exert her revenge against the commander she believed was the killer, Katara was willing to use bloodbending against him, ignoring Aang's advice to forgive rather than take revenge.
She deeply regretted her actions after realizing she had bloodbent the wrong man, although she was not above planning to kill the murderer, only for her self-conscience to stop her from almost executing him, understanding that violence was not the answer.
Motherly and feminine as she might be, Katara was not afraid to go beyond her feminine looks and way of being to achieve what she wanted. When she and Toph were denied entrance to a rowdy pub because the both of them were girls, they dressed up as boys. Katara, in particular, showed her masculine side when wanting to ride the pub's mechanized bull; being even willing to start an all-out brawl with some of the guys there who mocked her ability to stay on the bull. The whole thing ended with Toph dragging Katara away before things came to a head.
The two later went to a spa and reflected on how being a girl was not so bad at all. Katara's most notable ability was her waterbending.
She rapidly developed her skill at the art, as her fierce resolve to master the element helped her become one of the most powerful waterbending masters in her era. She kept practicing even though she did not have a teacher as her father could not find any, [94] learning whatever little she could with great ambition. Over the course of her childhood, she taught herself basic waterbending techniques and managed to master some simple waterbending forms.
What little she knew, she taught to Aang, who quickly mastered all she had to offer. That which had taken her years to achieve, Aang managed to imitate and outperform her within mere minutes, much to her envy and frustration.
Katara's waterbending remained amateurish until she came across a Northern Water Tribe waterbending scroll in a pirate-traders ship depicting several different traditional waterbending forms. Incapable of passing up such an opportunity to have formal instruction, she eventually made away with the scroll and first learned the water whip technique with Aang [29] and afterward continued to improve their overall technique.
Up until their arrival at the Northern Water Tribe, the two showed considerable improvement and Katara's confidence in her own abilities increased dramatically. She demonstrated the ability to bend with much greater precision and ease compared to when she first stole the scroll, was able to draw unseen water out of different sources and bend greater quantities in general, streaming them into powerful blasts and freezing water with much more control than before.
Later, Katara challenged the master waterbending instructor of the Northern Water Tribe, Pakku, to a duel. Though she was undoubtedly no match for the master, she was determined to not be beaten.
She demonstrated more advanced techniques than she ever had previously and greater proficiency in basic waterbending techniques she had previously learned. For the first time, she was seen bending with her feet and transforming the physical state of a wave. Pakku eventually removed her ability to bend by trapping her body and limbs between spikes of ice and so won the fight without harming her, though he admitted that she was an exceptionally talented waterbender.
She fought and defeated Zuko with the augmented power of the near-full moon. During the fight, she knocked him off his feet, deflected his attacks, imprisoned him in a dome of solid ice, and later a wave of solid ice.
Though she was defeated by Zuko after the sun rose, she fought him again with the full moon and defeated him easily. Katara showed promising potential of being a prominent waterbender. Following the Siege of the North, Pakku declared Katara a full-fledged waterbending master in the short time that she was at the North Pole.
In Omashu, she blocked a flurry of Mai 's knives by waterbending wooden boards into the air as shields in front of herself, managed to block arrows with a wall of ice, and retaliated by freezing Mai's arm in ice, only being defeated when Ty Lee snuck behind her and blocked her chi , preventing her from waterbending.
When facing Ty Lee a second time, she fought using the water in her pouch to fend off her chi blocking attacks, forcing Ty Lee to cartwheel away from disks of razor-sharp water. She also stopped Azula from killing Aang by catching her hand in a water whip.
Katara rapidly condensed water vapor into ice to defeat her foes. Later, these whips were able to match Zuko's enormous fire whips. When she was finally surrounded by Dai Li agents, she defended herself with the octopus form and rode on an enormous wave which knocked down these agents as well as Zuko.
She proceeded to escape on a rising stream of water, carrying Aang to safety. Katara's waterbending later became even more advanced and destructive. During a fight with a Fire Nation ship, she lifted a huge wave to separate the two ships and formed a huge steam barrier between them for cover. Once their ship was hit by a harpoon, she used her frosty breath of waterbending to freeze the hole in the ship's hull, thus repairing it.
Assisted by Aang, she formed crashing waves and precise missiles of water to destroy a Fire Nation Army factory. She also blasted a Fire Nation river craft into the air and against a cliff, [1] as well as transported a huge bubble of water from a nearby creek to extinguish a fire.
Katara's waterbending was exemplary, as she could turn rain drops into weapons. When Combustion Man locked her and Toph in jail, Katara adapted to her environment, using her own sweat as a catalyst to form a water knife which broke out of a wooden prison cell.
After learning this, Hama began training her in Southern Style waterbending. Among many techniques and combat tactics, she became able to condense moisture in the air to create her own water source for her bending and could remove water from plant life. On the Day of Black Sun , Katara fought against the Fire Nation guards at the capital, destroying several guard towers with Sokka and defeating many soldiers.
During her encounter with Yon Rha, she created a large wide dome of water by gathering rain drops and created ice spikes from it, nearly killing him.
Finally, during Sozin's Comet, she froze herself and Azula into a block of solid ice, thawed the center of it, and chained Azula to a water grate. Katara used her waterbending abilities as a remedy. Katara's innate aptitude toward waterbending abilities made her a rare case to naturally have access to the incredible ability to heal by manipulating the chi paths in a person's body, including herself.
She inadvertently discovered this ability after Aang accidentally burned her hands and subsequently used this power again to heal Aang's own burn after his face-off with Admiral Zhao. However, Katara unsuccessfully attempted to heal Jet after he was fatally wounded by Long Feng.
With the aid of a small vial of spirit water , which held special properties, from the Spirit Oasis , Katara's healing abilities were enhanced. Her healing had been successful enough that he could rise to his feet just moments after she had begun. As an adult, Katara's prowess continued to grow, as she became well-recognized in her abilities throughout the world. She proved herself to be an excellent teacher, having trained her daughter and Avatar Korra to become highly adept masters themselves.
However, even though her healing skills were recognized to be "the best in the world", she could not restore Korra's bending after Amon severed the connection Korra had to the three elements other than air with his bloodbending. Katara bloodbent the Southern Raiders commander. After learning all of Hama's Southern Style skills, Hama decided to teach Katara bloodbending, an advanced ability to manipulate the water within the body of all living beings, controlling them like puppets.
When Katara refused to learn such a technique due to viewing it as dark and immoral, Hama decided to silence her with the said technique. Despite only just hearing about the skill, Katara showed an innate talent for the art, quickly becoming the first known person to break the effects of a bloodbender's grip and free herself.
Ultimately however, Hama tricked her into utilizing bloodbending to save Sokka and Aang, leaving her greatly distressed. When she traveled with Zuko to hunt down the man who killed her mother, Katara alone took out nearly the Southern Raiders under the full moon.
After she discovered where the captain was, she let her anger take over and used bloodbending on him, which stunned Zuko. When she discovered that he was not the man she searched, she released him, shocked and dismayed that she had just used bloodbending on an innocent person.
She is the only bloodbender who was never known to have had someone else break free of her grip, though she rarely used the skill. Though this was the last known time she used the technique, Katara came to greatly understand its workings, as she was able to determine how Amon had used bloodbending to remove Korra's bending, although she was not able to restore it.
Katara's knowledge of healing extended outside the waterbending subskill: She was versed in midwifery, as she had helped her grandmother deliver many babies in the Southern Water Tribe and delivered Than and Ying 's baby, Hope.
