![]() In addition to intimidating opponents, this disguise helps the warriors blend into the icy landscape of their polar homes. Water Tribe Warriors, elite nonbending fighters of both the Northern and Southern Water Tribes, wear full-face war paint when going into battle, colored black, gray, and white. This mark was received by Hakoda and, years later, by his son, Sokka, for his achievement in successfully steering a cutter sailing ship, leading Aang and Katara, through rough waters. It is given for deft decision-making and the ability to maintain leadership under pressure. The Mark of the Wise is an arc identical to the Mark of the Trusted though with the addition of a dot centered below it. The Mark of the Wise features an arc with a small dot under it. For example, while ice dodging, Aang controlled the jib of his group's cutter to successfully navigate the rocky waters this position related to trust, as without a steady hand, the whole crew would go down. The Mark of the Trusted is a horizontal, concave arc given to outsiders who are able to prove themselves worthy of the Water Tribe's trust. Following her successful completion of the ritual, Bato bestowed the Mark of the Brave upon her. The Mark of the Brave is a crescent-shaped mark that resembles the moon and is given for "inspirational displays of courage." During Sokka's rite of passage, Katara held the position of bravery as she needed to secure the boat's mainsail and thus prevail against the brutal winds. The Mark of the Brave is in the shape of a crescent moon. The dishonored, renegade nun Jesa notably tattooed serpents over her arrows to distance herself from the Air Nomads after she began a criminal lifestyle and founded the daofei society of the Flying Opera Company. Īang's Air Nomad tattoos glowed when he entered the Avatar State, except for the spot on his back where Azula had struck him down, leaving a scar on the tattoo. This made him the youngest known airbending master until his granddaughter Jinora received her tattoos at the age of eleven in 171 AG. Avatar Aang received his tattoos when he was only twelve following his invention of the air scooter, despite only completing thirty-five tiers. However, extremely skilled airbenders may earn them at a young age, with another exception being that airbenders who create a completely new technique are automatically entitled to tattoos. ![]() Most airbenders earn their tattoos later in life, as true mastery over airbending is difficult to learn. Upon reaching the level of master by completing all thirty-six tiers of airbending, airbenders are tattooed with five light blue arrows: one extending from the base of the spine to the forehead, one for each arm pointing to the hands, and likewise for the legs and feet (when possible). Īfter the early airbenders learned more advanced techniques from the flying bisons, they changed the tattoos for airbending masters to emulate the arrow-shaped markings of the bison. As these people only received the power to control air while out of the city, the tattoo was not associated with airbending mastery. The earliest known ancestors of the Air Nomads lived on top of the air lion turtle during the era of Raava and had similar tattoos along their bodies, though the ends bore an upside down "T" with a dot beneath it and they were applied even to children.
