New Characters
So far, six new characters have been created specifically for Book Five: Connections.
Anju
The co-leader of the Earth Empire and wife of Kanan. Anju is willing to give up everything for the success of the Earth Empire, except for love, much unlike Kuvira, their previous leader.
Kanan
The co-leader of the Earth Empire remnants and husband of Anju. Kanan is ruthless towards his enemies, but compassionate towards his friends. He and his wife share an equally infinite love and admiration for each other.
Nukka
The leader of the Kyoshi Warriors and mother of Anana. Nukka is calm, collected, yet always ready for a fight. She is willing to help anyone who asks for it, which is expressed when she does everything she can to help Avatar Korra reconnect to Avatar Kyoshi's spirit.
Anana
A Kyoshi Warrior and daughter of Nukka. Anana is quite the opposite of her mother; headstrong and always hoping for a fight rather than a peaceful resolution, though what she does have in common with her mother is her willingness to help.
Kohaku
A rich Fire Nation citizen who funds the Fire Nation military alongside his wife Akane. Kohaku is one of Fire Lord Izumi's closest friends in the Fire Nation. Though he does not bend, he has other strengths that can help him win in battle, including his immense household guard of not just firebenders, but waterbenders and earthbenders.
Akane
A rich Fire Nation citizen who funds the Fire Nation military alongside her husband Kohaku. Akane is a close friend to Fire Lord Izumi and was Yasuko's closest friend, the mother of Asami. Akane detests violence and war, but believes that it is better to fund an army that will never see war rather than be completely defenceless.
