✨ Why do you like AtLA?

Love the classical elements and the storyline!

✨ What character and card resonate with you? Why?

The Fool. The Fool is very spontaneous and lives in the moment without any fear of consequences. I can be that person but I choose not to sometimes. The Devil: Most people think this card is evil but it's the perfect balance implied that resonates with me so much. Toph is quite good as I love her rebelling against normative culture!

✨ What book/text would you want to read the most? Or, talk about a book/text you've read or will read and what it means to you.

Nothing specific but books exploring the Japanese Yokai.

I have the headcanon that Professor Zei didn't actually die, but rather he became one of the Knowledge Seekers. If someone has a genuine love of learning and knowledge, and they have found the library, Wan Shi Tong grants them their eternal wish after death: to be surrounded by knowledge and to spend eternity pursuing it.

✨ CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT ✨

Today we're pleased to present Rissa, our next writer who contributed to the guidebook accompanying the deck!

✨ Why do you like AtLA?

The world and characters intrigued me since I was a child - I would set a reminder on my flip phone to make sure I never missed an episode. And now, years later as an adult, I still love the show - it still speaks to me even now. It's something that's impactful, no matter your age.

✨ What character and card resonate with you? Why?

It used to be Toph, but now it's Katara. She's strong and a caregiver even in the face of hardships, something I look up to. As for which card, I'd say Death, because I've experienced so many transformations in my life, and instead of fearing them, I've come to appreciate them.

✨ What book/text would you want to read the most? Or, talk about a book/text you've read or will read and what it means to you.

An important book that I still want to read but haven't yet, is Lord of the Rings, because it's a book that means a lot to my best friend and my boyfriend.
