The Offshore Prison Warden is a minor antagonist in Avatar: The Last Airbender, serving as the main antagonist of the Book One: Water episode "Imprisoned".
He is a Fire Nation prison warden who runs an offshore prison rig next to an unnamed Earth Kingdom village, where the villagers are deprived of their ability to earthbend.
He was voiced by George Takei, who also voiced Koh in the show's live-action Netflix adaptation.
History[]
After the Fire Nation captured an unnamed Earth Kingdom village, it appointed an unnamed commander to be the warden of the resident prison for earthbenders. He was a ruthless man, locking people in solitary confinement for weeks for mere rudeness. He is first seen when Katara (after she feigned earthbending to get into the prison) is arrested. He torments the prisoners until Aang and Sokka appear and start a revolt among the prisoners (using coal as a substitute for the ground, as the ship was made of metal). He is eventually thrown into the sea by a prisoner, despite his warnings that he cannot swim. The warden presumably drowned afterwards.

Trivia[]
- The warden's acts of depriving the people of Haru's village the ability to earthbend is analogous to the real-life Chinese government's policies of forcing Tibetans to assimilate into Chinese culture and to abandon their unique traditions.
