Vathara started this story because the differences between the four elemental nations seemed superficial compared to the differences in culture and values between thier real-world counterparts. This eventually grew to include how cultures with animistic belief systems view spirits and some of the historical background surrounding real-world campaigns of genocide.

This isn\'t an inherently bad approach, provided it is used consistently and explained well so we either see the characters change over time or they are different from the very start. Instead, Vathara picks up in Book 2 so all the bits of character establishment and development from Book 1 are canon for this story. Beyond that, most of the events for Book 2 for Team Avatar, at least the ones that don\'t directly involve Zuko, are also story canon.

Because of this, the Team Avatar characters should be the series canon characters when the get to Ba Sing Se because they have established themselves to be those characters in the story, even if it was left mostly off screen in this story. But they aren\'t becase they are Vathara\'s profile-characters from that point on.

Kalaong has a point above, though cut-and-pasting the entire trope entry was a terrible way to make that point. Vathara is facinated with Zuko as a character and has admitted that Aang\'s pacifism is incomprehensible to her, even more so that Azula\'s form of crazy.

As a result, Zuko now has all sorts of things piled onto him to make him extra-special. Most of them are interesting ideas that haven\'t been explored to their full potential becasue they are competing with each other and the plot for screen time. Some of them, like Zuko\'s past life, have become pretty much irrelevent along the way.
