Dalisay worked as young Sozin's henchwoman for a few years, though she did not like him and Sozin eventually imprisoned her after growing distrustful of her.

He settled for a happy home life after many years, but was restless.

She knew she had been assigned the wrong gender at birth since young age, but the times were changing due to the Northern Water Tribe trying to appeal to the other nations, leading to young Makittuq not getting the support she needed. She developed a habit of ice diving to deal with stress and accidentally discovered her ability to enter the Spirit World where the spirits perceived her as her true self. After unhappily trying to live a double life to please her parents, she eventually left her family and old life behind to train with a shaman who helped her to transition and hone her skills before sending her off to find her own tribe.

An affable and perhaps sometimes quite reckless young waterbender from the Nothern Water Tribe who left his home hoping to become a legendary warrior in the fight against the Fire Nation...but then the war ended. He searched for his new big guest with a group of companions.

Bo

A child of two members of the Council of Elders in the Southern Air Temple.

A secretive, aloof and wise martial arts master who used all forms of jing and taught at a hidden dojo on an island close to the Southern Air Temple during the late Hundred Year War. They originally lived elsewhere and trained a highly capable student named Taowu, but they split up after his strength and skill made him view himself as superior to others.

After moving to their new residence, they protected locals from Fire Nation raids and took in students in exchange for regular food supplies and not asking any questions. However, their pupils split into rival factions because they disagreed with the superiority of different techniques, with the exception of Xin Ming. The master eventually kicked everyone out and refused to give them food until the strongest pupil managed to enter the dojo. This was eventually accomplished by Xin Ming with the help of Team Avatar and the master declared the strongest are the ones who unite over conquering.

Gantulga

The owner of the most popular tea stand in Downtown Republic City's Tea Market. The stand serves a wide variety from across the world and they inherited it from their retired parents. Their tea and snacks are cheaper than elsewhere in the Market, probably because Gantulga makes most of their money from secrets: they work as an influential information broker and peddler of secrets with a great intuition for spotting those with useful information and a calculated front that can appear loose-lipped when discussing the less serious information.

They are from Aang/Korra Era and Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game - Republic City (2023.)

Joh

The youngest scion of the prestiguous Jin family on Jasmine Island that descends from the Earth Kingdom and focuses on tea plant growing.

Karuko

A factory supervisor in Republic City's Green Meadows district. Their parents were factory workers and when they snuck in to see them work as a child, a pile of poorly secured metal poles fell on them and resulted in a lifelong disability. The elderly factory owner paid for Karuko's entire recovery, making them perceive most factory owners as benevolent and later decide to work as a union buster who freelances for multiple factories on their time off while also having a well-paying job thanks to their prized metalbending ability. They walk with a hinged metal brace on their left knee and subtly use their bending they learned since young age to smooth their step and hide their pain.

A young child from an Earth Kingdom village who lived with their grandparents after their mother passed away.

Pushi

A member of Jasmine Island protectors with a quiet and blunt personality and a talent for martial arts earthbending. They were from a family of builders and worked with their parents from a young age, but were sent away to an isolated training facility after their bending was discovered so they could truly learn to use their abilities in constructive ways. However, Pushi didn't react well to being sent away from home and fought the other students both in and out of training. They were expelled and sent back to the island where they joined the protectors as a way to keep fighting...and avoid facing the disappointment of their parents.

Qi Kiala

A sensitive and perfectionist councilmember and the head of the prominent and wealthy Qi family that largely descends from the Water Tribes and grows golden jasmine flowers for the golden jasmine tea production on Jasmine Island.

They are from Hundred Year War Era and Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game - Quickstart (2021.)

The Claw

A member of the Yu Dao Bounty Hunters Guild who operated in the Western Earth Kingdom and infamously dressed in very peculiar ways as a form of branding to attract employers. This member was only known as the Claw...for they wielded a razor-sharp four-pronged claw on one hand. They were a bit mysterious as they only dressed in dull grey and simplistic outfit and wore a metal mask that covered their face with only a few small holes to see and breathe through. They also didn't talk much. Supposedly they just enjoyed the work.

Xiao

A curious and proud masterful non-bender martial artist who was raised by pacifist monks in a small and remote Earth Kingdom village that was right next to a valuable ore deposit.

They viewed this as their greatest failure and traveled with new friends with a plan to eventually liberate their home.

Xin

Known as the helpful and mentorly "sage" and the main community organizer of the Dragon Flats borough, one of Republic City's poorer and triad-dominated areas. Their family originated from Hira'a, a backwater settlement in the Fire Nation, and they left to live in Republic City back when it was founded to escape poverty. Their economic situation had improved a little by the time Xin was born thanks to years of hard work. Xin worked as a streetcar operator for decades, but retired during the Raiko administration. They became a sort of freelance representative of Dragon Flats and gave food, medicine, shelter and friends to those who needed them.

They are from Korra Era and Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game - Republic City (2023.)

A young non-bender technologist from the Earth Kingdom who expertises in traps with overwhelmingly foul odors. They were adopted by the elderly man named Kim (the owner of the Eel-Swan Sauna) after their parents were arrested for protesting the Fire Nation's rule. When the war ended, Yuxuan was a rebellious teenager and made a big deal about going off to find their "real parents." However, when they got to the prison, they found out their parents had died in captivity. They were embarrassed about how they treated their adoptive parent and wanted to do some good in the world to honor their parents' legacy and also make lots of money to bring back to Kim as amends. They had planned to do this by capturing Qian Yu with their new companions, but changed their mind when she turned out to have a good reason for taking an Air Nomad artifact.

QUEER

Aiwei

The traitorous advisor and truth seer of the Metal Clan and a secret agent of the Red Lotus.

He was confirmed to be part of the LGBT+ community by the creators when they were asked about such characters after The Legend of Korra ended. They stated some are good people and some are bad as they gave Kya and Aiwei as examples.

He is from Aang/Korra Era, The Legend of Korra cartoon (2014) and confirmed in 2015.

Bo's parents

Two members of the Southern Air Temple's Council of Elders. There isn't any further information on them, but with the Southern Air Temple being primarily for men (cis and trans) and also non-binary people (who prefer this particular temple) it's indicated they're queer in one way or another.

It's also unclear what exactly is meant with them being Bo's parents, as Air Nomads often didn't have traditional family structures. They still could form close relationships with their biological relatives if they wanted to or form familial relations with other Air Nomads.

They are from Kyoshi/Roku Era and Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game - Wan Shi Tong's Adventure Guide (2022.)

PANSEXUAL

Jargala Omo

The leader of the criminal Creeping Crystal Triad in Republic City that uses the aforementioned green crystal as their trademark and a rival to the Triple Threat Triad under Tokuga. She is an earthbender who descends from the daofei (significant organized groups of criminals with their own code and traditions from the Earth Kingdom) of the Kyoshi Era.

She was stated to be pansexual by the artist Irene Koh. The way she interacts with Asami has a somewhat flirtatious undertone.

She is from Aang/Korra Era and The Legend of Korra: Turf Wars comic (2017.)

OTHER:

Not considered part of the main canon, but the legendary eartbending figures Oma and Shu were changed to two women in Netflix's live action version of Avatar: The Last Airbender (2024) while they were originally a heterosexual couple in the cartoon with Shu being a man. It would give them an additional reason to keep their love a secret alongside the rivalry between their villages.

Hopefully we will also get asexual and aromantic characters, like F. C. Yee (the author of the Kyoshi and Yangchen novels) said. These two come to my mind as characters who could potentially be somewhere in the spectrum.

A fan asked if Avatar Yangchen was intended to be asexual (context indicating specifically aromantic asexual.) F. C. Yee answered it's a valid and fitting interpretation, but was honest that it was not his intention while writing her character–he wanted to focus less on romance for the kind of story it was. Though not explicitly confirmed, her stories indicate mutual attraction with a waterbender boy named Kavik.

Khandro, the leader of the anti-nobility renegade Air Nomad group Guiding Wind, was stated to have never experienced romantic feelings for anyone for his entire life (he planned to marry his friend and ally Zeisan purely for their political goals,) though it's worded as him being focused on his spiritual goals.
