The Merchant was a merchant in a small Earth Kingdom village.

History
Team Avatar had stopped in an Earth Kingdom village to get some supplies, and the Merchant showed Aang an Air Nomad necklace. Aang eagerly asked where he got the "ancient necklace", but the Merchant replied that the necklace was not ancient and a man had traded it for medicinal supplies two days ago and informed him of the man's location. Aang soon left Katara and Sokka in order to investigate and found many Air Nomad relics in a cave and a yellow-cloaked man sitting inside. The man turned towards to Aang and was revealed to be the Merchant. Aang was ambushed by Fire Nation soldiers and captured. Zhao revealed himself and gloated about Aang's capture. In payment for luring Aang to his trap, Zhao allowed the Merchant to take all the relics he could carry. Later, Aang managed to free himself and beat the soldiers, including the Merchant. His fate after this is unknown.
