i wanted to try:)

So, this is my first oc!:) i’m very happy whith how it turned out, mostly because i did everything in mouse since i don’t have a graphic tablet, also i used a reference for the body, because i kinda use to loose the proportions when i draw in my laptop soooo.... here you go

To give some context, Nakobe is from the years of the third avatar, wich is a waterbender. At this point, there was already a big quantity of people living in the north pole, a lot of waterbenders whit their wives explorating and seeing how it will be to live in there (at this point bending ice wasn’t discovered yet). Since the men were the waterbenders, they used to be pretty abussive with women, and making it forbbiden for them to waterbend.  The women, who were the ones who taked care of the place, weren’t very happy about this, so they stoled a boat and leave, they wandered in the seas for weeks with their childs untill they came across with an island (near to what it is the southern air temple we already know) in that place the women and child settled. They lived in bambu houses, in the middle there was a bonfire wich was used for the cooking and to keep it warm. One of the women who runaway, was Nakobe’s mom, Shui. At this time Nakobe was only 10yo. This is Nakobe, Nakobe is the word that Mlabri (an ethnic group from Thailand and Laos) use for ‘many’.

Nakobe is a powerful waterbender who get teached a little by her mom, and then practiced feeling the moves of the waves, learning in some way from the sea. She is one of the eldest child in the island with 16yo. She fished for the tribu, and also helped cooking. 

Soooo, why do I introduce you this character?
