Tough criminal

"fire"

- Forget about controlling my anger. Let's riot!

The tough criminal was, like his name says, tough and a criminal. He had large muscles, a deep voice, a twitch in his eye, and tattoos. This prisoner was a resident of the Boiling Rock for many years. It was his uncontrollable anger that landed him in prison in the first place, and it seems his anger got him into fights on an almost weekly basis. However, after smuggling in a few self-help scrolls, this tough-criminal tried to learn to control his anger. It is unknown if he ever reached his goal, though sadly, it seems unlikely.

History
Sokka, Zuko, Suki, and Hakoda were trying to start a prison riot so that they could benefit from the commotion and escape the Boiling Rock. In order to start one, Hakoda pushed the first big, muscular person he saw, this being the tough criminal. Hakoda expected him to lose his temper and get mad at everyone, but instead he stayed calm and told Hakoda that he had hurt his feelings. Confused, Hakoda asked the tough criminal if he wasn't mad at him. He replied that he had been working to control his anger. It wasn't until Chit Sang picked up another prisoner and called for a riot that the tough criminal participated in the event.

His ultimate fate after the end of the War is unknown, though it is likely that he remained in prison.
