Location
Fire Fountain City is a large, industrial city located on one of the many islands in the eastern half of Fire Nation. It is named for the large, firebending statue of Fire Lord Ozai in its center.

The city is one of the many industrial towns in the Fire Nation that supports the war effort. Many factories are located in the city, and pollution is extensive. The city is a working class town with very seedy elements. It is considered unsafe to walk around Fire Fountain City at night, so most citizens stay indoors.[1]

History Edit

The Fire Fountain.
RenatablsAdded by Renatabls

The city was once named North Chung-Ling, but was changed to Fire Fountain City due to the fire fountain for which they are known.[1]

While Team Avatar, except Katara, was on a walk around town, Toph suggested that they get more money by scamming the scammers on the streets. The dealer at a game of chance took away the pebble from under the shell at the end so that no one could win, but Toph used her earthbending and kept the pebble under the shell. She then guessed correctly and won. After that, the trio continued to scam people at a game of Chance Sticks, and also at a carnival where she used her earthbending to ding the bell on the high striker game. After Sokka found a wanted poster of Toph with a huge bounty, Katara and Toph attempted to pull off the "scam of all scams". Katara got Toph captured by the police so as to get the bounty. The town authority locked both the girls up and put them in a wooden cage instead of a metal one, rendering Toph unable to metalbend them free and escape. He then handed them over to Combustion Man.

When Aang and Sokka entered the town in an attempt to retrieve Katara and Toph, Combustion Man attacked. Fortunately, the girls were able to escape the prison, and helped the group escape the city with no further problems when an attack from Toph resulted in Combustion Man's chi being blocked, turning his attack against himself.[2]

Locations Edit

Fire Fountain Edit

A giant statue of Fire Lord Ozai stands in the center of the town square and is powered by natural gas. The statue depicts Ozai with his head tilted back and fire gushing from three holes in each fist[3] and mouth like water would from a "normal" fountain. The piece is so famous and incredibly moving to any Fire Nation citizen that the town officially changed its name.[1]

Post office Edit

Post office.
RenatablsAdded by Renatabls

This is one of many communication hubs in the Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom. Messenger hawks are trained to fly on designated routes between different post offices. Outside the post office is a bulletin board where the Town authority hangs fliers and wanted posters.

While walking through the town, Sokka noticed the messenger hawks and expressed his desire to have one. After he got money from all the scamming, he went to the post office and bought Hawky, a new member of Team Avatar.[1]

Fair Edit

This fair is very popular, and is permanently there, not a traveling one. It has stalls selling items, and lots of tents and a high striker, where you test your strength by hitting a target with a hammer and see how far the bell goes up. This hammer, though, is not for children and is very heavy to lift.[1]
