Mainly a Last Airbender/LOK oc, but can be adapted for other verses or original stories if needed.

Taiyo was born the son of a Fire Nation Army Officer, and was expected to follow in his footsteps. Once he was old enough, the young man was enlisted in the military, passing through basic with ease. although he was a pretty good bender, Taiyo was assigned to the armory, as he was an excellent blacksmith (a trade he'd picked up from his maternal grandfather; his father hated it, but let his son continue it as a hobby, mainly since it involved fire). After a year, Taiyo deserted and fled to the earth kingdom, dying his hair and hiding his bending. He set up shop in a small village and his trade quickly grew. While he's safe for now, he dreads the day an officer he's familiar with passes through..especially his father.
