Mako

Affiliation: Republic City
Voiced by: David Faustino

Backstory: Mako is the older brother of Bolin, and the leader of the Fire Ferrets. He has been looking out for his little brother since they were both young, and has used Pro-Bending as his means of support for his small, but significant family. Mako's fierce determination to support his brother and consistently do his best, both inside and outside the Pro-Bending arena, has had a great influence in the well-being of the two brothers. Mako is hesitant to let Korra into his plans for the future, but warms to her as he learns more about her.

Powers: Firebending, Lightningbending

Personality: Upon first appearance, Mako can be seen as standoffish, perhaps even cold. However, this comes from his formality and propriety. An extremely layered character, Mako is a dedicated, focused, quiet, and thoughtful young man with a tendency towards brooding. He is motivated towards making life better for his brother and himself, and is not above sacrifice to turn those dreams into reality. An intensely competent firebender, Mako has been described as being, "cool under fire."
