Mailee

Mailee is a reoccurring character from the Earth Kingdom. She is a little snobby and very tough but inside that determined face is a heart of gold.

Before the show
Mailee was born to the name of Cori in the middle ring of Ba Sing Se. Vakuku wiped out Cori's family when she was the age of 8. Seeing her sister and fathers corpse traumitised her she watched her mother get killed and right before she was stabbed she whispered to Cori "run!" And she did, she ran as fast as she could from her home, through the gates of Ba Sing Se, into the Muldon Forest. There she found a spirit, The Mother of Faces, the spirit asked her where she was going and what she was doing. She told her about what happened and how her family was killed. The spirit pitied her and offered her a new face and identity. Cori gladly accepted. After all there was no one left in her life. She asked the spirit to keep this one thing in her new identity, the vow to kill Vakuku. And at that moment Cori was gone and Mailee was born.

Meeting The Bender Force
Mailee meets The Bender Force when they visit the Muldon Forest. They find her beating a whole fleet of Vakuku's army by herself. Amity immediately wants to learn her techniques and asks her to teach her what she knows. She's a little stubborn about it and agrees to only do it if she helps her defeat Vakuku. Amity told her she was the Avatar and was already planning to do that. Mailee stays with the Bender Force for a number of episodes. Some members of The Bender Force did not like Mailee very much at first such as Yunni, Kazumi, and Mira, they thought she was selfish and she always complained. After they learned her backstory when they meet the Mother of Faces they begin to understand what Mailee went through and is still going through so they try to help Mailee and teach her to care about others.

Personality
Mailee is pretty stubborn and tough just like Toph but Mailee has more of a feminine personality and cares a lot about her looks.
