Hou-Ting



Hou-Ting is the new appointed ruler of Ba Sing Se, the daughter of Kuei, the prievous Earth King, and an antagonist in Chapter 3 of the TV show; The Legend of Korra.

History
Hou-Ting was born sometime after the 100 Year War had ended. As she got older, Hou-Ting eventually became the ruler of Ba Sing Se.

Sometime after the Harmonic Convergence, Hou-Ting discovered that Airbenders have been appearing in Ba Sing Se. So she commanded the Dai Li to capture all of them so they can become members of her personal army.

Eventually, Korra and the members of Team Avatar heard that a lot of the new Airbenders have been showing up in Ba Sing Se. Korra thought that the Earth Queen could assist them with their search. Before she accepted, Hou-Ting asked Korra for one favor. She asked Korra to prevent a group of bandits from stealing the taxes. After Korra successfully protected the taxes and brought them to the Earth Queen, Korra asked for Hou-Ting's assistance. However, Hou-Ting quickly stated that the rumors about new Airbenders were false. Korra didn't believe Hou-Ting's statement and criticized her for extorting her own subjects. Hou-Ting commanded Korra to leave the palace. Korra did so and continued her search without the Earth Queen's assistance.
