Katara is the only current Waterbender from the South Pole's Water Tribe, a race of people who can control and manipulate water. Katara earns the title of Master Waterbender from Master Paku of the Northern Water Tribe by the age of fourteen, something very rare.^[1] She is the last remaining waterbender in the Southern Tribe (Katara's Home) because of continuous raids on her village by the Fire Nation, specifically by the Southern Raiders. She, along with her older brother, Sokka, discover an Airbender named Aang, the long-lost Avatar, frozen in an iceberg and accompanies him on his quest to defeat the imperialistic Fire Nation and bring peace to the war-torn nations.^[2]
