Kuruk

History
Avatar Kuruk was the last Avatar incarnate born out of the Northern Water Tribe. Kuruk was a gifted but cocky Avatar who enjoyed constantly searching for people to challenge his bending prowess, usually for no other reason than the sake of it. He also liked providing others with grand displays of his bending ability, especially in regards to women. Never having even the slightest thoughts of settling down, Kuruk went on with this up until the day he met the love of his life. At the New Moon Celebration, a meeting of the two sects of Water Tribes, he met a woman named Ummi from the Southern Water Tribe, it was love at first sight. Shortly after, Kuruk presented her with a customary betrothal necklace, which she accepted, and the two were to be married at the Spirit Oasis. On the night of their wedding, as they approached the altar, Ummi fell into the pond, seemingly pulled in by an unseen force. As it turns out, she had been taken by the spirit Koh to punish Kuruk for his past actions. Ever since that day, on the anniversary of their wedding, Kuruk traveled to the Spirit World in hopes of saving Ummi, but failed on every attempt. Now in the Spirit World, Avatar Kuruk still searches for his wife, with information on her present state imparted to him by a brief encounter with Aang enticing him even further.
