History Characters / AvatarTheLastAirbenderPrincessAzula

* TalentedButTrained: Azula is a firebending prodigy, even by the royal family standards, but it would be a great mistake to say that she only relies on her talent or rests on her laurels. She spends a lot of time training and practicing her firebending, and doesn't stop until she deems her technique perfect, as well as her hand-to-hand skills with her being an incredibly skilled martial artist too as a result. Indeed, her acrobatic skills alone were enough to allow her to evade both Aang and Toph, despite being in an underground tunnel.

* FemalesAreMoreInnocent: As much of a cruel DaddysGirl as she is throughout her appearance, there's no denying that her own father Ozai '''[[AbusiveDad has MADE her]]''' into that, as well. Additionally, unlike him, she's also surprisngly capable of being emotionally vulnerable and (in ''some'' ways) instinctive, thus there's '''''at least''''' a portion of humanity inside of her for a fearsome firebender.

** [[spoiler: By extension, her opinion of Zuko has also improved to some extent: Although still cruel and conniving, she insists that he has the abilities to be "strong" like herself and apparently wants to rule as Fire Lord alongside him in the shaows. Observing Zuko's public apology to the citizenry, Azula remained smug, confident that he would eventually come around to her way of thinking.]]

* TheSociopath: She's a ManipulativeBitch, a pathological ConsummateLiar ("Azula always lies..."), and a ControlFreak. Subverted since not only she fails to demonstrate [[TheHedonist pathological need for stimulation]] and lack of impulse control, but also she reveals aspects sociopaths don't have. She has NoSocialSkills, harbors self-loathing out of belief that her MissingMom considered her a monster, [[WellDoneDaughterGirl seeks to please her father no matter the cost]], and suffers from a massive VillainousBreakdown triggered by [[spoiler:the betrayal of her closest friends and her father]]. It's also confirmed by [[WordOfGod Bryke's]] word in ''Sozin's Comet: The Final Battle'' that she could have turned better in a healthier environment.
** Also subverted in that since Azula is underaged, she cannot be diagnosed as a sociopath (a person with ASPD who is 18 or older), but could be considered to have Conduct Disorder. CD is essentially sociopathy in its early stages, and also fits well with Azula's social awkwardness, as most sociopaths don't learn how to be superficially charming until they're in adulthood. With this in mind, Azula has the potential to be a sociopath, but enough intervention can prevent this.

* FootFocus: Is shown enjoying a foot massage in her personal spa prior to her coronation in the final episode.

* FourTemperamentEnsemble: [[TheChessmaster Choleric]].
