/Basic Info\
Name: Sojiro, Zanza (Last, First)
Age: 27
Alias: Sojiro (Simply called by his last name)
Nation: Fire Nation
Occupation: Wanderer/Mercenary
Political Standpoint/Allegience: Sojiro has an allegience to the remaining 3 nations. He is a wanderer, who believes in the peace the Avatar wants, as well as the newer Fire Lord, Zuko.
Apperance:
Due to the fact he would constantly run, Sojiro happens to be rather slim, yet "cut". While he is stronger than most average men and soldiers, he isn't as muscular when it comes to mass as they are, which gives him the speed advantage as well. Sojiro stands at an average height of five foot eight, weighing only one hundred and sixty eight pounds. He has long short black hair, and striking gold eyes, and naturally tanned skin. Sojiro has a black goatee as well.
He wears a black short sleeved shirt, and somewhat baggy black pants, held up by a red sash. He wears black metal plated boots, over which he wears a flexible pair of black greaves, allowing easier movement at the knees. He has two black gauntlets (Covers top of arm, not bottom). His piece of armor are his black pauldrons. He goes around shirtless or wearing a tank top normally instead of his shirt though. He prefers to wear loose clothing rather than tight clothing, due to the fact that it gives him extra room, and better mobility. On his chest there are several scars, varying from cuts to burns.
On his back is a tattoo of an oriental dragon, which covers his entire back, as well as some of his arms.

/Combat Structure\
Bending: Advanced
Weapons: Firebending and a dagger that is a serrated single bladed dagger.
Combat Style: Sojiro uses pure firebending as his fighting style. He uses basic Northern Shaolin Style Kung Fu for the most part, but is adept at Wing Tsun, Tae Kwon Do, Tai Chi, Ju-Jitsu, and several other styles. He uses basic attacks such as the fireballs and arcs of fire made from kicks and sweeping blows, as well as a more personal style, which combines several fighting styles. He prefers to do straight forward strikes, rather then hit and run tactics. He tends to stay in a single spot, seldomly moving, and blasting opponents from all angles while firebending.
During the time he does martial arts alone, he is constantly moving, doing grapples and strikes, as well as tosses and quick moves. He is stronger than the average man, and MUCH faster and more athletic as well.
/Biography\
Personality: Even though Sojiro was born in the Fire Nation, he tends to be kinder to most people. Because he grew up in the worst parts of a Fire Nation town, he knows the struggle of people. He puts his friends above himself, assuming he actually finds friends. He helps small villages with their problems, whether it is a farmer who is too old and needs some help doing farmwork, or a group of Fire Benders, Earth Benders, or even nonbending rogues harassing villagers.
For the most part, Sojiro is a loyal guy. He enjoys running, mainly due to when he was even a young kid, he would run around the city, doing free running (Parkour, if you need an explanation on what it is, let me know, or just look up Parkour on google/you-tube and you'll see.). He enjoys spending his time doing free running, as well as relaxing, generally spending time in the hot-springs.
Sojiro also happens to be one of the select few who disagreed with the Fire Nation, yet he still didn't want to go against them in the past.
Sojiro's Firebending also isn't driven by his anger, but his self discipline and wanting to mantain some slight order, even if it means killing a select few, or atleast knocking the fight out of them.
History: Born a poor town, more like a village in the Fire Nation, to a man who had originally been a great soldier in the fire nation who ran away, due to his hate for the bloodshed, and a woman who he fell in love with in the city he ran to, started Sojiro's life. His father had been an experienced Fire-bender, and after running away, hid his talents and acted as an ordinary merchant. His son Sojiro, had shown his first signs of fire-bending one morning while he was throwing a fit, and accidentally lit a paper towel on fire, at the age of 4. His father then waited until the boy was 7 years old, and began to teach him Martial Arts, as well has how to do beginner fire-bending.
While he was learning this, Sojiro started to like running, and eventually "raced" the other kids. As time passed, while his intelligence didn't increase alot, his athletic ability and strength did, as well as his fire-bending. By the time he was 11, he had become as skilled as people a few years older than him, as well as stronger than them and more athletic. He now raced people for fun, and would tend to take shortcuts through the city, which eventually led to him doing flips, diving, and other free-running things, such as running up walls and such.
Things changed, when he was 14, he was taken by the Fire Nation Nobles, because they had finally found the one man they had searched for. They found Sojiro training in a field, and saw that he was fairly adept at Fire-bending. They confronted his father, and made a deal, his life, or the boys service. Sojiro overheard this, and volunteered on his own to join the military, against his fathers wishes. Begging for a different solution, they wouldn't allow it, and simply left.
From there, Sojiro was then trained by Fire-bending masters, and learned more advanced techniques, both in Fire-bending, and his athletic abilities. Now in a larger "Playground", Sojiro spent hours at a time running around the Capital, finding every single area out in detail, and became even better at his free running, due to more obstacles in a larger place. He would start problems with people, and then make them chase him, which was d**n near impossible, because after half a year, he knew the area where he lived like he knew his own house.
By the age of 15, he was given a house of his own, as well as a tutor to train with him, to make sure he never started "slacking". During the plans for several assaults, Sojiro was used for his outstanding athletic and acrobatic abilities to infiltrate several places. He became considered one of the Fire Nations great infiltrators, due to his abilities to easily leap over walls and obstacles, and incapacitate threats easily, while troops then entered once the entrance was safe, though Sojiro seldom killed the men himself.
When Sojiro was 19, he left the military, to pursue something else, to become a wanderer. While people did not like this, they let him be, and Sojiro left the Fire Nation, and had made several friends in other Nations, even though he was a firebender, and became a wandering Firebender. Due to the fact that he disliked the Fire Nations ideals. For a year he took out any Fire Nation soldiers who attempted to take him back to the Fire Lord, though he easily defeated them. When Zuko became fire lord, this ceased, and he began to help out villages and their citizens as a "career".
