Nergüi was an assassin from the Fire Nation who carried out heinous missions for his home nation during the Hundred Year War. After Fire Lord Ozai was defeated, Nergüi ended up challenging his beliefs, and put his skills to use under Fire Lord Zuko's new government.[1]
History
Nergüi only ever acted with the belief that the Fire Nation brought prosperity to the world during the Hundred Year War, even as he took on heinous missions for his home nation. Every horrible thing he had done was put into question when Ozai was defeated, and the extent of his genocidal plans became apparent. For the first time in his life, Nergüi suffered a crisis of faith. After a year of despair, Nergüi swore to dedicate his remaining years to undoing the wrong he inflicted on the world.[1]
To that end, Nergüi continued to work as a spy, but served the new government. He specialized in hunting down the worst offenders of the Hundred Year War and bringing them in to stand trial for their crimes.[1]
Personality
While Nergüi was able to question the ethics he had learned growing up in the Fire Nation's age of imperialism, he was still continuing to learn what it meant to be on the right side of things, and benefitted from others providing him with a moral compass.[1]
Abilities
As a master assassin, Nergüi's espionage skills were said to be unparalleled.[1]
