The Legend of Korra

Ghazan

Ghazan

Though much of his past is a mystery, the criminal known as Ghazan rose to prominence as a member of the Red Lotus. After his imprisonment following an attempt to kidnap the Avatar, Ghazan spent 13 years waiting for his freedom in a wooden cell in the middle of the ocean. Ghazan’s time in prison renaming the constellations had a deep impact on him, though his carefree attitude seldom betrayed it. When the Red Lotus’ plot to overthrow the Four Nations and end the Avatar Cycle failed, Ghazan buried himself in the cave that served as their headquarters rather than face imprisonment again. Ghazan was a master earthbender and one of the only lavabenders in the world.
