Tenzin

Tenzin is an Airbender and the youngest son of Avatar Aang and Katara. He is a character set to appear in The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra, where his tutelage is sought in Republic City by the current Avatar, Korra, to help her master the last bending art in the cycle, Airbending.

Background
Tenzin was born during an unknown year after the War to Aang and Katara as the youngest of their three children, and the only Airbender. He was taught the traditions and customs of the Air Nomads by his father, Avatar Aang. At some point in his life, he acquired the familiar Air Nomad tattoos, symbolizing his status as an Airbending master.

He eventually married Pema, and had three Airbending children with her: two daughters, Jinora and Ikki, and a son, Meelo, with another child on the way. The family lives on Air Temple Island, a secluded "sanctuary."

Personality
Tenzin is far more serious than his father, however, he can have a sense of humor at times. He always attempts to be a calm person, but sometimes he loses his patience with his three "crazy" children.
