Character Name: Princess Korra Fen Frost-McKenzie.
Character LJ (if applicable): frosted_water
Physical description (face, build, weight): 5'6", 121 lbs, brown hair, blue eyes. Distinctively lacks ankle wings.
Age: 18
Birthday: November 1st.
PB: Ashley Greene
Abilities: From her father, Korra has a hybrid of human/Atlantean physiology, being of both the homo meranus and homo superior. Her Atlantean physiology allows her to be able to see, breathe, and survive at great depths underwater. She also has enhanced strength able to lift up around fifteen tons, speed, stamina, agility, reflexes, and durability, though not on the same level of normal Atlanteans. Though unlike her father, Korra lacks ankle wings.

A little gift from the Frost-side of her heritage, Korra is a budding telepath and telekinetic, having first tapped into her psychic abilities at the age of thirteen. Though she is still learning to perfect these abilities (with her mother's training), Korra can currently project her thoughts into the minds of others, read at least surface thoughts (and other thoughts, if she probes deeper, but she doesn't like to do this unless she absolutely has to, because she finds it very rude and intrusive), can lift around two-hundred-fifty pounds with her tk before straining, and has figured out how to use her tk to allow for her to fly.
Weaknesses and flaws: Though she is part-Atlantean, Korra is still vulernable to injury. Just because she is durable, it doesn't mean that bullets or lasers won't hurt her. Because of her young age, her powers still require a certain level of concentration when being used, making her more open to being attacked.

Backstory: Korra is the result of an affair between Emma Frost and Prince Namor of Atlantis. At the time when Emma found out she was pregnant, she was still the White Queen of the Hellfire Club. Sebastian Shaw, learning of Emma's pregnancy, planned to exploit the baby and use her to try and force Namor to join the ranks of the HFC. Emma, who would have no such thing for her unborn child, went to Atlantis to tell Namor about her pregnancy. Originally, Namor wanted the child solely raised in Atlantis, as he didn't want his unborn daughter to have any ties with the Hellfire Club. Emma, wanting to be involved in her daughter's live, but also wanting her to protected from Shaw's exploitation, retired from the Hellfire Club. Nine months later, Emma gave birth to a daughter, who Namor named Korra Fen Frost-McKenzie after his maternal grandmother and mother.

During her childhood, Korra was raised jointly by her parents, spending six months out of the year in Atlantis, and six months on the surface with her mother, though Emma visited her daughter frequently. Korra had the best tutors, in both Atlantis and on the surface at her mother's home in New York City. She was groomed to have excellent manners, leadership skills, and an eye for business. While Korra mostly played the roll of refined princess, she had a bit of a playful side, and was known for playing practical jokes on some of her more "boring" tutors.

When Korra was sixteen, Namor found out that he had a daughter with his second wife, Marina, named Nimue Smallwood. As the oldest child, Nimue was given the birthright of being first in line to inherit the throne of Atlantis . At first, Korra felt hurt, and a little disappointed in herself. This all changed when she met her sister Nimue for the first time. The two girls bonded quickly, and Korra decided that if she wasn't going to be queen, then she would be the best adviser to her sister and help her in any way that she could when it came time to inherit the throne.

Upon her eighteenth birthday, Korra petitioned her father to allow her to spend more time on the surface, as she wanted to be a hero, like her sister and cousins. Namor agreed, under the condition that she either join Alpha Flight, with her sister, or the Avengers, with her cousin, Mackenzie. After some serious thought, and with her mother's blessing for her to start doing things on her own, Korra has elected to join Alpha Flight, her sister's team.
