Head of the Dai Li


 * For the previous Dai Li leader, see Long Feng.

This is the Group Leader of the Dai Li. He acts as representative of the Dai Li corps, and personal spokesman for the Dai Li's main body. It's possible he is an Earthbending master and manipulator like Long Feng. His ultimate loyalty remains with his fellow Dai Li agents, and his decisions are always based upon choosing the best path for them, and under the person with the most power. Before Azula's coup in Ba Sing Se, the person with most power was Long Feng, whom he answered to directly, acting as his understudy, apprentice and right-hand man. It is quite likely that he would have been Long Feng's Successor, had his loyalties remained with Long Feng.

After Azula's arrival, the Dai Li Leader answered to Long Feng through Azula, and was under her charge during the Ba Sing Se coup. It was during this time that his and the Dai Li's alligiance began to convert to Azula:

"Long Feng: '..The Fire Nation Princess is cooperating?' Dai Li agent: 'Oh, yes. More than cooperating, she's really taken charge. She's terrifying, and inspirational at the same time. It's hard to explain...'"

Azula, recognizing this new loyalty when the coup of the Five Generals and the Earth King was essentially finished, confronted Long Feng as he was about to double-cross her, in front of the Dai Li agents:

"Azula: '...They haven't made up their minds. They're waiting to see how this is going to end... The fact is, they don't know which one of us is going be to sitting on that throne, and which one is going to be bowing down. But I know, and you know.' (Azula to Long Feng in The Crossroads of Destiny)"

After Long Feng admitted defeat, the Dai Li's allegiance immediately transferred to Azula. After her coup at Ba Sing Se, being the representative and general leader of the Dai Li, he was one of the selected agents Azula took with her on her journey back to the Fire Nation. He resumed his role as spokesperson for the Dai Li, and answered to Azula during the comet's arrival. Azula's escalating paranoia made her banish him and the Dai Li, along with all other subjects under her command due to fear of being betrayed. What happened to him (and the Dai Li) afterward is unknown.
