Baboon spirit

"spirit"

- Go. Away.

Enma is a monkey-like spirit that can be found meditating near Koh's Realm in the Spirit World. He is one of many strange-looking spirits living in the Spirit World.

It is common for spirit world creatures to be in the shape of animals, and this odd spirit looks like an old baboon. He is a very irritable spirit who hates to be disturbed while trying to meditate and he speaks with an Indian-like accent.

History
When Aang arrived in the Spirit World seeking advice on how to defeat the Fire Nation that was attacking the Northern Water Tribe, he asked Enma for help, but the Spirit wanted him to leave. Aang kept persisting for the cranky spirit to help him, but Enma only grew more agitated as he tried to continue his meditation. When Aang was still hanging around, the Spirit told him to follow a ball of light and remarked, "Finally!" when he left. After losing the light, Aang was advised by Avatar Roku to see Koh, the Face Stealer. After Aang came back from his encounter with Koh, Hei Bai helped him return to the mortal world. Enma soon made a sly remark. He complained, "Good Riddance!" and got comically hit by a huge energy blast sent by Hei Bai in his more wrathful form. He does not appear in the series again.

Trivia

 * Enma (閻魔) is the Japanese name for Yama, Lord of the Dead in Hindu/Buddhist mythology. It may also be a pun in Japanese, as when written with the Kanji 猿魔 the name means "monkey demon".
