Character: Ty Lee
Series: Avatar: the Last Airbender
Character Age: 14
Canon: Avatar: the Last Airbender is the stunning saga of the adventures of Aang (the aforementioned Avatar, a.k.a. Kung-Fu Action Jesus) and His Amazing Friends as they race to bring peace to the world, a smile to the face of every young boy and girl, and so on. Of course, there is no story without conflict and as such the Avatar's quest is opposed by the Fire Nation, a ruthless kingdom seeking to "spread their prosperity to the world" by… well, conquering it, pretty much. Ty Lee, an acrobat/martial artist with an intimate knowledge of how the human body works and which pressure points to hit to make it stop working, just so happens to be on the side of said evil empire, and it's likely that she could be a truly fearsome and imposing enemy... except for the fact that's she's so insufferably nice about everything.
A perennial, incessant optimist, Ty Lee's the kind of person who not only sees the glass half-full, but rather it's half-full of the greatest drink known to man and there's even a cute bendy-straw to sip it with. Moreover, she has the innate ability to manage to attempt to present herself as being a very spiritual, sensitive person whilst at the same time being so incredibly flighty and unsubtle that she has an unfortunate tendency to not filter what she actually says, which tends to reveal the fact that she's more self-absorbed than she'd like to admit. Some of her hobbies and interests include being perky, dispensing fairly superficial new agey advice, being perky, winning friends and influencing people, flirting, and being really, really perky. Despite her tendencies to come off as being rather ditzy and shallow, Ty Lee really does mean well; it's just unfortunate that her good intentions aren't always backed up with anything resembling tact.
Sample Post:
Guys, before we begin I just want to say how totally brave I think you all are for even being here today. After all, the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, right? And it's a problem that I hope this support group can solve with if we can all just work together and promise to try our hardest! After all, you guys may put up a tough, intimidating exterior, but I think that deep down, you're all really good people who are maybe just a little misguided! And besides, it's so nice to meet guys who actually compliment me on my brains, you know?
But really, the problem should be pretty obvious to everyone, right? The bad skin, the gross teeth, the pent-up hostility? You guys have totally got way too much negative energy stored up! I mean, you shouldn't feel bad, it happens all the time, just... not usually to this extent, you know? Normally, you just get frown lines, split ends, and maybe your skin breaks out, but if you don't do anything about it, it might... well, end up like this! Too much negativity is serious business; who knows what'll happen if you let it get worse? But don't worry, I promise I'll help you every step of the way on your road to recovery! After all, what good would being able to think positive be if you can't share it with those in need? Plus, the universe sent me a very distinct message that this is where I'm meant to be today, so here I am! ... well, actually, it was a sign that said "Spiritual Enlightenment at Next Right. P.S., Free Candy!" a couple of miles back. But I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason and when it comes to the universe, sometimes you kind of have to read between the lines. A lot.
Now, the next step towards inner peace is through self-discovery. So, what I'd like for everyone to do right now is concentrate on taking a nice, good look at themselves, and then tell the group a bit about who they are and how they feel about themselves. We're all here to listen, it's okay if you want to pour your heart out! ... and, um, I'm looking for something a little more descriptive than the whole, y'know... "grrr arrrrrgh" thing you've been using to respond to almost everything else. That's totally a defense mechanism, guys, and you're using it to mask your true feelings! So, who'd like to go first? Oh, how about you, mister... Grrawwgh, right? You look like you're having a major breakthrough! So, after some soul searching and digging deep inside, what did you come up with?
... um. W-well! That... um, that was a great first try, Grrawwgh, but that's... not exactly the kind of breakthrough I was hoping for. But... points for enthusiasm? Guys, I... did say inner peace and not inner pieces, right?
