Aang

Aang is the main protagonist from Nickeloeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender, and appears in Playstation All-Stars Fanfiction Royale as a playble character. His rival is Samurai Jack.

Biography
"I'M JUST ONE KID."

Aang is a hero - a 12 year old hero who likes to stir up trouble. Raised by Airbender monks in a temple hidden in the mountains, Aang is the last Airbender and the only known survivor of the Air Nomads. It's Aang's destiny as the Avatar to master all four elements - Air, Water, Earth, and Fire. But he'd rather search for adventure than save the world. Though he's very spiritual, Aang doesn't like being known as the mythical Avatar or being the center of attention, he just wants to be a normal kid. Aang loves animals, especially his giant flying bison, Appa, and his pet winged-lemur, Momo. He's quick to take detours along his journey, much to the dismay of Katara and Sokka, and he's a master of getting himself into sticky situations. Luckily for all three of them - and the rest of the world - he's pretty good at getting out of them too.

THE LEGACY OF AANG
 * Avatar: The Last Airbender (2006)
 * Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Burning Earth (2007)
 * Avatar: The Last Airbender - Into The Inferno (2008)

Rival
Name: Samurai Jack

Reason:

Connection: Avatar and Samurai Jack are both considered "American Anime", cartoons made and developed in North America, but simulate the look, feel, and style of Japanese animation. Also, Avatar is primarily hosted on Nickelodeon, and Samurai Jack was hosted on Cartoon Network, and both networks are often seen as "rivals" to each other as well. Lastly, both series share a common voice actor, Mako Iwamatsu, who voiced General Iroh in Avatar, and Aku in Samurai Jack, both of which are very important characters.

Gameplay
Aang is a very fast and agile attacker, capable of a glide, wall run, and fast running speed. Some of his moves can cause knockback, be charged up, or combo into his next moves. Aang's main weakness is his miniscule AP gain, with even a decent combo gaining only about 60 Ap. As such, it is best to attack constantly and try to use Aang's different bending arts to fit the situation. Most of Aang's moves incorperate airbending, his natural element, but he can control water, to freeze opponents, Earth, to stun opponents, and Fire, for lingering damage. Combining these is the key to playing as Aang.
