At an Earth Kingdom stronghold, General Fong places Katara's life in danger to induce Aang's Avatar State but achieves only destruction. Katara then accompanies Aang to the Earth Kingdom for him to learn earthbending. Katara having achieved her own expertise, Pakku deems her sufficient to teach Aang. Upon arrival, Master Pakku refuses her apprenticeship, because the customs of the Northern Water Tribe dictate that females cannot learn Waterbending as a martial art but upon noticing Katara's necklace, which he himself gave to Katara's grandmother, he agrees to teach her. Bent on mastering Waterbending, Katara joins Aang to reach the Northern Water Tribe to find a Waterbending master, with Sokka alongside them. The events of Avatar: The Last Airbender begin six years thereafter, when Katara and Sokka find Aang in suspended animation and identify him as the Avatar, a messianic figure.
Later, Katara's father Hakoda and the other warriors journey to the Earth Kingdom to oppose the Fire Nation leaving Katara, Sokka, and their grandmother Kanna to look after the tribe. Though her interests lay in developing her Waterbending skills, she resigned herself to cooking and cleaning duties while her brother, Sokka, trained to become a warrior. When Katara was 8 years old, her mother, Kya, sacrificed her life during a Fire Nation raid in order to protect Katara whereafter her daughter assumed an adult's role in later life. Plot overview Avatar: The Last Airbender She is commonly a mother figure to Sokka, who sometimes resents her for this but also takes her for granted. Katara tends to be kind and generous, but is often stubborn or confined by her morals becomes angry if doubted, insulted, or betrayed and carries resentment for years on end. Katara is described as "smart, capable, caring an anime heroine", and as "kind, brave, and passionate." In many situations, Katara appears as a mother to the other protagonists: a role attributed to her tribe's losses to raids and the departure of many members to war, which required her (as well as her brother Sokka) to assume responsibilities beyond her age. In the commentary of the unaired pilot episode, co creators Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino state that Katara's "hair loopies" were intended to hang downward, but were thought too hard to animate and looped backward instead. The character 'Lā' appears in the first season's finale as the name of the Ocean Spirit, while the character 'Kǎ' also appears in Sokka's name. Kǎ (卡) means to check, block, or card Tǎ (塔) means pagoda and Lā (拉) means to pull. In " Tales of Ba Sing Se", Katara's name was written as 卡 塔 拉.
Īccording to the un-aired pilot episode, Katara's name was originally 'Kya', which was later used for her deceased mother. Katara has appeared in other media, such as trading cards, T-shirts, video games and web comics. She later earns the title of Master Waterbender from Master Pakku of the Northern Water Tribe at the age of fourteen. She and her older brother, Sokka, discover an Airbender named Aang, the long-lost Avatar, frozen in an iceberg, and accompany him on his quest to defeat the imperialistic Fire Nation and bring peace to the war-torn world. Katara is a fourteen-year-old waterbender (i.e., she has the ability to telekinetically control water and ice) at the beginning of the story, she is the only waterbender in the Southern Water Tribe, one of two known communities in which waterbending is practiced.
