Li and her twin sister, Lo, are Azula's two ancient advisors. Little else is known about her background.
[edit] History
In "Return To Omashu", Li and Lo advise Azula to abandon the Royal Procession in favor of a smaller elite group to better increase her chances of capturing her fugitive brother.
Li is later seen in "The Awakening," presiding over a rally held at the Capital city's royal plaza, where she boastfully declares victory over the Earth Kingdom thanks to the efforts of Azula and the newly returned Prince Zuko.
Later on the "The Beach", Zuko, Mai, Ty Lee, and Azula stay with her and her sister on Ember Island where they own a small but comfortable beach house. Lo and Li have been coming to this tiny beach cottage since they were infants. When their parents died, they inherited the cottage. When life in the Fire Nation Capital becomes too hectic, the twins escape to their little oasis. At the beach she seems to be a lot more relaxed, rather than the seriousness she portrays in the other episodes. On one of the walls, a poster shows two very beautiful girls. The kids ask who that is and she replies, "Can't you tell? It's Lo and me!" Later, she tells the kids that the beach has special "powers", supposedly it changes people, makes them better and smoother. After this advice, she and Lo claps her hands and announce that they're going to the beach.
In the season 3 finale, Lo and Li express their concern for Princess Azula's welfare to her, and she in turns accuses her father of sending them. She orders the twins to have an Agni Kai, in which the sisters tell her that that's impossible, since they are not firebenders. She then decides to banish one of the twins. However, due to a name mix-up, the twins are unsure of who is banished.
[edit] Trivia
- It was believed that she and her sister are Firebending Masters, since they were first seen while overseeing Azula during her training in lightning generation. That assumption, however, is wrong because Azula ordered the two to duel each other in an Agni Kai, and they themselves admitted that they are not firebenders.
