Aang

Aang is a fictional character in Nickelodeon's animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender. The character is created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko and is voiced by Zach Tyler Eisen. Aang is depicted as the show's protagonist.

Aang is the series' reluctant hero, and depicted largely as a Trickster.

The series depicts Aang as the last surviving Airbender and a monk of the Air Nomads, the people able to manipulate the air. He is a supercentenarian at the age of 112; but remained in suspended animation for one century, and has thus physically aged only 12 years. It is revealed in the second episode that he is the current incarnation of the "Avatar", the spirit of the planet in human form. As such, Aang has the ability to control the four classical elements and is tasked with keeping the Four Nations at peace. The show follows Aang's journeys to complete this task, during a war instigated by the Fire Nation.

Aang has appeared in other media, such as trading cards, video games, T-shirts, and web comics. Aang has also appeared in the feature film The Last Airbender in which he was played by Noah Ringer, and The Legend of Korra where he is voiced by D.B. Sweeney.
