Plot Update 10 March 2021

A year has passed since Fire Lord Zuko ascended the throne, and it seems like trouble is brewing between the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom once more. The Fire Lord and the Avatar began the Harmony Restoration Movement to restore the Fire Nation Colonies to their pre-war state by bringing any Fire Nation nationals back home, but for many of the citizens — of mixed Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom … Read more ›

For those of you curious about the specific details of the gAang's epilogue, feel free to ask here. Most of the epilogue is covered in our plot section of the Rules board, but the finer details (especially for AU aspects) were edited for length and clarity.

Of course, you're all welcome to write your own epilogues (for those of you that had characters on TARP during the gAang years) even if you weren't actively participating in the canon plotlines (of course, the rules about not inserting yourself into plotlines still applies ;] ).

The groups that we had during the gAang years were:
- The Galgori (though this is covered in the Galgori faction page in the profile board)
—- The Hunt
- The Ba Sing Se Underground
- The Fire Nation Resistance
- The Mothguaith

If your faction isn't listed, it's because it seemed to have fallen by the wayside. If I just missed it, feel free to include an epilogue for your group.

I will be editing this post if people are interested in specifics.

The Hundred Year War took its toll on everyone, and the stories of those involved had to come to an end.

Pakku


After the victory in Sabuku, the Waterbending Master traveled to Ba Sing Se to aid in the retaking of the city. On the way, he trained his new apprentice and former student Akado; through months of rigorous training, the young man became one of Pakku's best students.

When Zuko took over as Fire Lord and brought the Nations together, Pakku traveled to the Southern Water Tribe, resigning from his position as the Northern Tribe's Master teacher. He proposed to Kanna, his former fiancee and she accepted, resulting in a spectacular wedding in the south.

After many more years of marriage, Pakku passed away at the age of 95; before his death, he transcribed Master Waterbending techniques on scrolls and sent them back to the North Pole.

Kaito Katashi


After his escape from Ba Sing Se and the clutches of the twisted Captain Xian, Kai took refuge in the Earth Kingdom until Avatar Aang defeated the Fire Lord and brought peace and unity to the land. It waas only then that he felt safe traveling back to the Northern Water Tribe.

Reuinted with his parents, Kai took a job as a Waterbender working for the city. Eventually, he got word of Waterbending scrolls coming to the city along with news of Master Pakku's death, and he took it upon himself to learn the techniques in the scrolls.

Two years after his return to the north, Kai met a fellow Waterbender while working and married her two years after, producing two happy children. Kai passed at 85; his wife joined shortly after.

Haru & Rei Hiraoka


Following the events in Ba Sing Se, Haru and Rei went their separate ways; Haru back to his village, and Rei to Kyoshi Island. Haru spent the rest of his days helping in his village until the ripe old age of 78. Rei served as a Kyoshi Warrior until she retired at age 40, living out 34 more years before passing away.

Akane


The circus girl made a living in the Earth Kingdom, entertaining people until returning to the Fire Nation Captial once the Avatar saved the city. She reuinted with her old troup and entertained crowds, eventually rejoining the Circus; she was tragically killed at the age of 37 when a rampaging komodo rhino knocked a tent pole onto her.

Azei


The former Fire Nation Captain made his way to Ember Island with his lover, Lee, and stayed there for several months. The Army eventually sent assassins in retribution for disrespecting General Chow, but they were quickly dispatched by the two Firebenders.

Eventually, they moved back to the Capital once the Army was reorganized to prepare for the union of the Nations into the Republic; there, he and Lee were married and settled down. Azei passed away at the age of 78.

*gasp* Didn't see this. I can contribute as well.

THE MOTHGUAITH

The entire island tribe of former Fire Nation members was evacuated from their island shortly after the Day of Black Sun, by their Galgori allies. They were discreetly dispersed among the general populations of primarily the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation, a few to the Southern Water Tribe. From there they mingled mostly with ease; the majority of the Mothguaith were nonbenders, with firebending limited to the priest-families of the Old Ways. Worship of their seven guardian spirits, the sholabs,vanished immediately in the public eye and dwindled quickly even in the privacy of homes, though certain aspects of Mothguaith heritage were maintained and a sort of tribal solidarity still exists today among any who discover each other to be of the island lineages. By the time of Korra, however, these are far scattered, and finding out if someone is secretly a descendant of Mothhaudh is neither a secret nor a priority.

Surnames on Old Mothhaudh were originally given by individual rather than by family, and earned or claimed only some years after birth so that the surname would indicate something about the character or history of the individual. When the Mothguaith joined the societies of the Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom, they abandoned this practice, translating their given names and surnames at the time into the same language as the mainlands (for instance, "Luinnar" meaning blue fire in Mothguaith -> "Lanhuo" meaning blue fire in Chinese). For this reason, natives originally of Mothhaudh will very rarely have the same last name as their families, but children born after the Exile carry the family surname instead of an individual one.

and Etsuko Nimeariel, re-named Etsuko Hailei[/color][/u][/b][/center]
Having stayed behind to delay the Fire Nation Navy at the time of the Exile, Taed and his mother Lotelin managed to survive to mourn the loss of his uncle, Coer's father Ked, and then escaped discreetly to the Western Air Temple after the gAang had been forced to abandon it as a base camp. Originally hoping to gather some remnant of the Exiles back to the Air Temple, Taed first chose to sail to the Northern Water Tribe, where his wife Etsuko, newborn daughter Sora, and stepbrother Goen were supposed to be heading on their own path of making allies throughout the non-Fire nations. Upon the arrival of all four, they were all greeted with the news that Avatar Aang had defeated Phoenix King Sozin. They chose to risk investigating the rumors, traveling back to the Air Temple to retrieve Lotelin before reaching the Fire Nation a month after Zuko's coronation. Staying there briefly to celebrate and to meet with any Exiles they could find, the family elected to move to Mount Makapu Village.

Some years later when Zuko and Aang founded Republic City, Taed and Etsuko felt strongly the need to join the cooperative effort, and moved their family there immediately, sans Goen. While in Republic City, Etsuko and her husband (re-christened Tadashi) grew old together and spoke out in favour of peace and equality to their dying days. They passed on within a week of each other, in the care of their daughter Sora, who began the Kimura clan.

Coer Sae Morcaran, re-named Guozi Shenhong

Long, long before the Exile occurred, Coer had all but given up his longtime Mothguaith heritage and joined his lesser known bloodline, the Galgori. By the time of the Exile, Coer was already in the underground Galgori village of Terrakoto, beneath the Fire Nation colony of Criaga in the Earth Kingdom. There he studied combat with his girlfriend, Anei daughter of Juraia, whose grandfather had once been a city leader. When news of Avatar Aang's victory over Ozai reached the dual city, Anei and Coer returned to the Fire Nation to verify the news and to move back to their old training grounds at Inoue Michiya's Trading Outpost. While there, they were briefly visited by Coer's cousin Taed and his family, who were leaving for the Earth Kingdom permanently. After that, Coer never saw any Mothguaith again, though he and Taed corresponded semi-regularly.

In adulthood Coer and Anei were married, living briefly at the Outpost before moving back to a place near the destroyed Galgori village where he had fought against the Order of the White Lotus. He had two sons and one daughter, and died in his sleep at around fifty years of age.

Goen Culril, re-named Kenta Haideng[/color][/u][/b] - Moved back to Mount Makapu with his stepbrother Tadashi and family, and remained there when everyone else moved to Republic City; married, but had no children; died defending pilgrims in a bandit raid in his old age

Lotelin Caranhith, re-named Riko Linghuo[/color][/u][/b] - Lived with her son Tadashi and daughter-in-law Etsuko at Mount Makapu and then Republic City, dying shortly after the move to Republic City, last of the priesthood of the sholabs

Cale Gilhith, re-named Kei Shouwu[/color][/u][/b] - (pending approval from Shio) having gone to the Fire Nation before the Exile with fellow Mothguaith Vora to try and find the first firebending spirits, but failing, Kei and Vora ended up marrying and living together in the Fire Nation.

Inoue Michiya - Died only a few years after the departure of Sozin's Comet, leaving her Trading Outpost (secretly a Galgori training camp for Dim Mak) in the hands of one of her students, Hokori daughter of Juraia

I haven't thought of epilogues for all of my old characters but I will eventually. I need the closure.

Kugi Tang was eventually released from prison and finally fell in love with the woman he had been married to for over ten years. His wife Saya spent her time chastising her husband for waiting so long. His daughter Tsubaki disregarded all expectations by marrying a civil servant and living a quiet life. His eldest daughter Kyoko never married and spent a good deal of time retracing Piandao's journeys and mastering the sword.

Kuma Takeda never found his true love but lived the rest of his life content with his troupe of performers and warriors. As per his last wishes his body was taken by his students and hidden to add drama to his death. Some say his bones were relocated to Republic City and mixed into the foundation every theater in town. Others claim that his skull is used as an acting prop in certain productions.

Suigetsu lived one of his dreams by marrying the love of his life Han Yu Seul but never managed to topple every government and every organization in the world. He raised one son (albeit poorly) and then his two grandchildren. People at the local tavern still talk about the rebellious old man who claimed he could do anything because he got the most beautiful woman in the world to marry him. His ashes were mixed into an ink which was used to deface government property. The vandal was never found.

The Seirei Templar Order: After the war ended, the elders of the order gathered and made a decision: the order had to disappear. Every remaining priest and priestess was sent out into the world to help with the rebuilding effort and live the rest of their lives with humanitarian ideals, without ever mentioning their roots, but never ever forgetting them. It was a process that took decades, the order being so old and its members being so devoted. Eventually, the Temple was sunken with all its secrets and tales. The entire religion was to become a relic of the past, as the world did not need the spirits anymore.

Joychi: After the Underground helped the White Lotus and Galgori liberate Ba Sing Se, the young Lieutenant left the army and went back to the Earth Temple where he learned the saddening news. Willing to make sure the transition would proceed smoothly for each and every monk, Joychi supervised the exodus over the years, eventually becoming the very last leader of the temple when the elders died. As if clinging to the past, he spent the rest of his life in the temple. He got married there, adopted a little girl - he named her Prana - then had two sons of his own - Gleeki and Kanki - and lived long enough to see his grandchildren become teenagers. He was then buried along with the temple.

Hinh Thoi: When the war ended, she was called back to the Earth temple to make plans for the future, as the youngest elder. She was the one to suggest its disappearance and the mass exodus, claiming it was time to be devoted to the world instead of spirits. Later on she kept in touch with Tenoko for many years, although no more traveling. At some point, she settled in Ba Sing Se, in her parents' former home. She worked a few years as a diplomat, then married a Waterbender and had one daughter. But she died before her third granddaughter was able to speak.

Agita & Akita: The harmony they managed to create within her mind became extremely hard to maintain as the years went by. Akita wished to find herself a woman to spend the rest of her life with, whereas Agita wanted to hop from man to man in an endless series of fights and flirts until her heart stopped functioning. It led her to working as a healer in a dispensary in Eastern Earth Kingdom, having found the one most criminal area in this part of the continent. It became complicated when she was forced to act as vigilante to protect the place. But she quickly turned the tables and took over as local boss of the underground - after some unexpected murders. Neither side of the Waterbender ever fully got what they wanted though, aside from Akita's healing occupation and Agita's criminal activity. She eventually died in her sleep in her sixties, her body no longer able to keep up with the sisters' presences in her head.

Del: When his father was tried for his many war crimes as admiral in Ozai's Navy, Del was the only one able to take his place at the head of the family, his brother having been disowned many years ago. He struggled for many years to keep his family intact, now that his father's name had been slandered. Despite all the donations he was making for the Harmony Restoration movement, his estate was always targeted by the so-called righteous populace who didn't want him as their lord anymore. He never lived past forty years old, his mansion assaulted by his own servants with him dying in the arms of one of them.

Di-Jei: He kept on living as a bounty hunter for many years, although doing the occasional mercenary job for those willing to pay good money. Not giving a damn about rebuilding the world, he just lived his merry, violent life... Until he received word that his brother was dead. He went home for the funeral, taught a fiery lesson to the rebellious people now living on his family's land, and then torched the place. After that, he took all his father's remaining money and left the Fire Nation forever. Between that moment and the time of his death, there was only peace of mind and children.
