Avatar: The Last Airbender is a series I love dearly, for many reasons. One not insignificant reason is the number of awesome ladies. They are heroines and villains, warriors and village girls. But they are never just "The Girl." They are all people in their own right, and they are amazing.

Katara has always been my favourite of all these incredible female characters. She is caring, and responsible. . . and stubborn, and self-righteous, and not above making mistakes.

I love all of the Avatar characters, but Katara is the one who first drew me to the show.

She's so much more than Group Mom or Love Interest, and it makes me sad to see her reduced to that so often in fandom - especially when the show goes right out and addresses Group Mom with a great big "BUT SHE'S MORE THAN THAT!".

She's psychologist, doctor, fighter, organizer, commander; she can disarm without killing for chrissakes! (All of this while acting like a fourteen year old girl!) Kat's definitely at the root of my adoration for Avatar.
