Tulok

Tulok was a pirate lord and waterbender who led the Fifth Nation, an ethnically mixed people of corsairs, in the late 4th century BG.

History
Tulok's family partially descended from the Southern Water Tribe, and had served as heads of the Fifth Nation for several generations. At some point, he had a daughter, Tagaka, who became his lieutenant. After the early death of Avatar Kuruk in 312 BG, Tulok broke a treaty his grandfather had signed with Avatar Yangchen according to which the Fifth Nation would leave the Earth Kingdom's southern coast in peace. By this point, he was already quite old and very sick.

When his followers started to raid the Earth Kingdom, Tulok was visited by one of Kuruk's former companions, Jianzhu, who requested that the pirates honor the old deal. Instead, Tulok just laughed, though quickly started to convulse and spit blood onto the ancient treaty. He was eventually succeeded as Fifth Nation leader by Tagaka.
