Azula is Zuko's younger sister. When they were young, Azula was always playing tricks on Zuko, and favored her father, Ozai, becoming the Fire Lord instead of Iroh, Ozai's brother. Iroh's son died in battle, and when the Fire Lord of the time died, his dying wish was that Ozai become the fire lord instead of Iroh. Since then, Azula has become quite powerful, as she was pampered even more with Zuko continuing to suffer. She doesn't make a big debut until the end of first season. She plays a major role in the second season, chasing after Zuko, Iroh, and the Avatar and company.

Some time in second season, she fights Katara, Zuko, Toph, and Aang, and severely injures Iroh, her uncle. In fact, Iroh even appears like he would die, but in the next episode it shows him bandaged up and awake. He is being tended to by Zuko and Iroh, and later starts to teach Zuko about the nature of the lightning moves of firebending and teaches him to redirect Azula's attacks.

Azula has two good friends, Mai and Ty Lee. Ty Lee is one of six acrobatic sisters that look alike, and she knows how to shut down an opponents arms and legs so that they cannot bend. Mai is the daughter of two members of Fire Lord Ozai's court. Her dad is given the job of ruling Ohmasho, an Earth Kingdom city, and Mai gets bored easily with nothing to do. She knows how to throw daggers, and she has had a crush on Zuko ever since they were kids.

Overall, Azula is brutal and ruthless, traits she inherited from her father.
