Ghazan

Ghazan is an earthbending fugitive who was previously in custody under the Order of the White Lotus. He escaped imprisonment with Zaheer's assistance in 171 AG.

History
Ghazan was imprisoned in a wooden White Lotus prison cell in the middle of the ocean, effectively cutting off his access to any sources of earth. Zaheer infiltrated the prison disguised as a guard, intending to free him. During the scuffle, Zaheer threw three rocks into the cell which Ghazan melted into lava, using them to break out of his prison cell and subdue the remaining guards. He expressed joy at reuniting with Zaheer, and the duo proceeded to free Ming-Hua from her volcanic prison.

Abilities
A talented earthbender, Ghazan is able to phase-change earth and bend it into lava, much like waterbenders can do with ice. This liquified earth is then used by Ghazan as a powerful offensive weapon, molding it into various shapes to strike opponents, as well as easily being able to cut and burn through wood and other materials.
