Katara (games)

Katara is the last Waterbender in the entire South Pole. She is the second child and only daughter of Southern Water Tribe Chief, Hakoda, and his deceased wife, Kya. When she was twelve, her father left with the other warriors of the tribe to fight against the Fire Nation, leaving Katara and her older brother, Sokka, to lead the tribe. While on a fishing trip with Sokka, she discovered the long-lost Avatar, Aang, frozen in an iceberg. The two liberated him and afterward, accompanied him on his journey around the world to prepare for his battle with Fire Lord Ozai. After the Fire Lord's defeat, peace was restored and Aang and Katara began a romantic relationship.

Captured
After the battle for the Northern Water Tribe, Aang and Katara practice Waterbending where they receive reports that a Waterbender by the name of Hiryu has disappeared. As they return to the main city, a Fire Navy cruiser appears where soldiers proceed to attack them. They are led by none other than Prince Zuko. Eventually Zuko and his men are defeated, but Katara becomes captured during the course of the battle. She is taken to a prison in an Earth Kingdom port where she learns of a prisoner named Lian who is forced to construct machines for the Fire Nation.

Clues
After being freed by Aang and Sokka, Katara and the team venture to Lian's cell only to find it empty save for a map to an Earth Kingdom Village. Upon arrival at the village, they witness an attack by machines. After defeating the machines, they meet Haru who informs them that his friend, Yuan, has been captured by the machines. Having no knowledge of the origin of these machines, the group decides to travel to Omashu to find clues in its library. Their search in the library reveals the location of an uncharted island. Upon reaching the island, they meet Lian who reveals herself to be the one making the machines.

Lian
Lian grows worried that Aang will not master the elements in time to stop Ozai and believes that her machines are the only way to end the war. Aang rejects her aid which results in her becoming angry and subsequently sending another machine to attack them. The group defeats the machine, but in the confusion, Lian manages to escape to an Air Temple. The group follows her and finds her destroying Air Nomad statues with her machines. Team Avatar stops her, but her machines capture Katara, Sokka and Haru, who are then taken to a fortress where Aang eventually frees them. After being freed, the group is attacked by Prince Zuko, who is ultimately defeated when he is hurled off a cliff and over a waterfall.

Ultimation
Team Avatar explores the fortress and finds Lian. She has by now finished constructing a massive machine that is powered by the missing Waterbending, Hiryu, and Haru's Earthbending friend, Yuan. Lian tries to persuade Aang to help power it, but he instead decides to fight and destroy it. As Aang battles its elemental weapons, one of its arms reaches up to knock him down. Katara intervenes, leaping in front of the arm before it reaches Aang only to be knocked out. Aang becomes enraged and enters the Avatar State which enables him to easily destroy the machine, called the Ultimation, which falls on top of Lian and kills her. Yuan and Haru reconcile and they all leave the fortress.

General Fong


Aang, Katara and Sokka travel on a Water Tribe ship along with Master Pakku. He instructs them to fly to an Earth Kingdom fortress led by General Fong, who will provide an escort to Omashu where Aang can learn Earthbending from King Bumi. Upon reaching the fortress they are greeted by the General who tries to persuade Aang to use the Avatar State to defeat the Fire Lord as opposed to mastering the other elements beforehand. Katara firmly tells him that Aang will defeat the Fire Lord as planned; the general guilt trips Aang and requests that they visit the infirmary. Aang feels obligated to find the quickest method to ending the War. Katara thinks it to be a bad idea, but after failing to persuade him, agrees to visit the infirmary.

They visit the infirmary led by a kind woman named Li Sha. Aang and Sokka leave the fortress to find some herbs for her while Katara stays to heal some of the wounded. After Aang returns, his confidence in completing his training is reinspired by the injured soldiers and he decides to tell the general he doesn't want to trigger the Avatar State. Fong becomes angry and attacks them, forcing Aang into the Avatar State who accidentally destroys most of the fortress. Fong states that his display of power was perfect and wants to continue with his plan, however, Sokka knocks him out. The group decides to travel to Omashu without escort.

Return to Omashu
The trio finally reached the great city of Omashu, only to find that it has been conquered by the Fire Nation. Katara and Sokka think the best course of action is to keep traveling, but Aang insists on searching the city for Bumi. Because the Fire Nation now occupies the city, Aang leads them into a secret passageway in the sewer. They eventually climb out of the sewer into the city itself, but are soon stopped by three Fire Nation soldiers. Thanks to two pentapi who had stuck to Sokka's face, they are able to scare the soldiers away.

Suddenly, an old man appears and tells them that he is a member of the resistance. Aang is intrigued by this and so the old man takes them back to the sewers where the headquarters of the resistance are located. Once there, they meet Captain Yung, the leader of the Earth Kingdom soldiers. Aang asks him if Bumi is leading the resistance to which he tells the team that the day the Fire Nation invaded, Bumi immediately surrendered. Aang suggests that because they are outnumbered by the Fire Nation, they should leave Omashu and return to fight another day. In order to get all the citizens evacuated, Sokka proposes that they should all pretend to have "pentapox" just like he did. Aang and Sokka go off in search of pentapi and supplies while Katara remains in the headquarters. After they return, Katara goes off with Aang to find Bumi while Sokka leads the citizens out of Omashu. They reach the palace, but before they can free Bumi, they are suddenly attacked by the Fire Nation Governor, who is a prodigious Firebender. After Aang talks with Bumi about his surrender to the Fire Nation, the trio leaves Omashu.

The Swamp
Katara asks Aang if something is wrong when she observes that he is flying at a low altitude over a mysterious swamp. Aang states he is intrigued by the swamp, claiming it was calling to him. However, because Katara and Sokka both become creeped out, Aang decides to fly back up. Before they can fly away however, a tornado suddenly appears and blows them into the swamp. Katara wakes up to find everyone else gone. She walks around the swamp, calling everyone's names, but nobody answers. Suddenly she sees a woman by a tree, whom she first believes to be a villager. She asks for help, but then sees that the woman is her mother. Katara runs over to hug her but before she can, the illusion disappears. Faced with the memory of her greatest loss, Katara kneels down in the swamp and cries.

A short while later she comes across a village in the swamp that has been set on fire by the Fire Nation. She puts out the fires and is told by a villager that there are Fire Nation soldiers nearby; Katara goes off to find them. She soon comes across the Rough Rhinos led by Colonel Mongke. She eventually defeats them and they flee. She returns to the village and finds Aang and Sokka there. They split again to look for Appa, Katara and Sokka traveling to the eastern part of the swamp. Numerous red insects appear and surround them; Katara runs away, leaving Sokka to face them by himself. They return to the village empty-handed and see that Aang's search has come up successful as well. Suddenly, they overhear two villagers talking about a massive creature they wanted to eat for dinner. The group finds Appa only to be attacked by a giant monster composed of plants. They defeat the monster who reveals himself to be merely a Waterbender. He educates them about the spirituality of the swamp and Aang has a vision of a massive drill headed for Ba Sing Se. Katara and the others leave to find out more about the drill in Aang's vision.

The Blind Bandit
When we next see Katara, Sokka And Aang they are browsing the marketplace of Gaoling. Sokka is trying to make up his mind over whether or not to buy a green handbag. Aang and Katara get fed up and browse other shops. A man suddenly runs up to them and gives them a flier for Master Yu's Earthbending Academy. Intrigued, they go to visit it leaving Sokka still brooding over whether to get the bag or not. Master Yu and his lessons are not what Aang needs to learn Earthbending and so he and Katara decide to leave. As they are leaving, they overhear two boys talking about an event called Earth Rumble VI. After some "girlish persuasion" Katara finds out the location of the event and she and Aang go to it. They don't have tickets so they have to sneak in through the side entrance. When they get into the stadium, they find Sokka already there, having bought the green bag. Katara is disturbed by all the rock throwing and leaves to take a walk. As she is returning to the stadium, she passes an angry little girl heading in the opposite direction. Later, she finds out that Aang and the girl have been kidnapped and so they return to the stadium. The little girl named Toph turns out to be a master Earthbender and easily defeats Xin Fu and his minions. After the battle, Toph joins their group and they fly away on Appa.

The Library
After they leave Gaoling, Katara and the Gang head to Misty Palms Oasis in order to deliver secret Fire Nation plans to a man named Professor Zei. When they give him the plans, he tells them that in order to interpret the plans he has to go to Wan Shi Tong's secret library. The library is hidden somewhere in the Si Wong Desert and nobody has ever found it so The gang along with Professor Zei head to the desert to find it. They eventually find the library and go inside it except for Toph who stays outside with Appa. As soon as they enter the library, The spirit Wan Shi Tong appears and informs them that because of human greed and lust to gain advantage over others, humans are no longer permitted in the library. Aang and Sokka manage to trick Wan Shi Tong and so he lets them explore the library. After long study, they eventually interpret the plans and find out that the Fire Nation is building a massive drill. Sokka also finds out that there is an upcoming solar eclipse when the Firebenders will be powerless. Unfortunately, Wan Shi Tong discovers them and realizes that they tricked him and becomes angry which forces them to leave the library. Professor Zei however, decided to stay and sink with the library because he had spent a lifetime searching for it and did not want to lose it. The gang was joyful at first after leaving the library because they now knew two vital pieces of information relating to the Fire Nation. However, their joy evaporated when they found out from Toph that Appa had been kidnapped by Sandbenders. Aang confronts the Sandbenders and finds out that they sold him to merchants and that he was on his way to Ba Sing Se. The gang sadly began their long journey on foot through the Desert to Ba Sing Se.

City of Walls and Secrets
After an exhausting journey through the desert, Team Avatar eventually reached the city of Ba Sing Se. There they are greeted by a woman named Joo Dee who leads them to an already prepared house in the upper ring. The gang attempts to get Joo Dee to take them to the king but she ignores their requests with meaningless chatter. Since they are stuck there, Aang and Katara decide to explore the city in search of Appa. When they reach the lower ring, they do not find Appa but they do find an old acquaintance: Jet.

The Drill
The gang learn about a drill that is trying to break through the walls of Ba Sing Se. After entering it, Sokka tells the others about his plan to destroy it. Katara and Aang's job is to cut the columns of the drill. They succeed in cutting the columns and then they go to the top of the drill to deliver the final blow. At the top of it they find two enemies waiting there; Azula and Zuko. Aang and Katara manage to defeat Zuko, Azula, and the drill. Ba Sing Se is at peace for now.

The Awakening
Katara awakens Aang on a Fire Nation ship that her father and his warriors captured. She and Aang search the ship for Sokka, who has a new invasion plan. On the deck of the ship, they find out that Fire Nation Soldiers have infiltrated the ship. After finishing them off, they go to the other deck, where they sink the attacking ship. Sokka then tells Aang the new invasion plan.

The Arms Factory
Katara and Aang go to a village to get supplies for the invasion. There they find that a factory is polluting the water for the village and they set out to destroy it. After blowing up the factory, Aang and Katara run back to the village, but the workers at the factory want revenge. General Mung and his soldiers attack Aang and Katara, but in the end, they lose. Dock, an owner of a store, gives Aang and Katara supplies for the invasion.

The Day of Black Sun
Katara isn't seen at all during the invasion, but she does, however, leave the Fire Nation with the gang after the invasion plan failed because Azula managed to prevent Aang and Toph from finding Ozai before the eclipse ended.

Into the Inferno
Sozin's Comet arrives and Katara and Zuko battle Azula in an Airship while Ozai begins his plan to burn down the Earth Kingdom and create a new world from the ashes of the old. They defeat Azula, but while the airship shakes, Katara is thrown off balance and Azula sees this as a perfect chance to attack Katara. Azula bends lighting at Katara, but Katara is saved when Zuko jumps in front of her, taking the lighting for her.

Later, Katara helps Aang defeat Ozai. Aang takes Ozai's Firebending away, therefore ending the war. Ozai is thrown in jail. In the PS2 version, Katara and Aang meet with Zuko and Mai where they discuss what they're plans are. Zuko and Mai plan to rebuild the world together while Aang has no plans, but he knows that things are looking up. In the DS version, Aang walks away from the others, who are celebrating because of the war ending and Katara follows him. They share a kiss as Sozin's Comet passes by.
