I have decided that I am in like with the Yu Yan archers. I don't understand why they were only in that one episode. One would think that Ozai would have sent for them during the Eclipse to help defend against the invaders that he knew were coming.
Now the Yu Yan are an elite group of archers able to 'pin a fly to a target a hundred paces away'. I am considering these boys (and girls)

Ishi seems severe, because he talks very little and smiles less. He follows the orders of his commanding officer without question, and expects those under him to do the same.
Despite his age, Ishi is still a top-ranked archer and athlete, able to keep up with the younger crowd easily and often pushing them to their limits. If an issue cannot/will not be resolved by a squad captain, then he/she may ask the other captains to weigh in. This is un
