Wan


 * This article is about the first Avatar. For the spirit, see Wan Shi Tong.

Avatar Wan was the first Avatar, and lived ten thousand years prior to Avatar Korra's time. As a teenage explorer, this skilled bender worked to bring balance between mankind and the spirits, a quest that eventually led to him becoming the first Avatar.
