Fengying was a Guiding Wind revolutionary and firebender who previously served as a Fire Nation soldier. She played a major role in a crisis on Jasmine Island in the 50s BG, when she and Sakuru discovered the conspiracy of Magistrate Emerald.
History
Career in the military and joining the Guiding Wind
Fengying was originally a member of the Fire Nation military, serving for an extended time and becoming a "veteran".[1][2] Conversely, she grew increasingly disillusioned with the Fire Nation's leadership and became opposed to traditional aristocratic power structures. Eventually, she left the military and found solace by joining the Guiding Wind, a group originally founded by Air Nomads under Khandro, who sought to end the dominance of nobles and the wealthy across the world. Fengying became a valuable member of the movement, as few suspected an ex-soldier to work with pacifist airbenders. Accordingly, she could carry out missions for the Guiding Wind without raising too much attention.[1]
At one point, Fengying met and befriended a Jasmine Islander named Tsenten who had already forged good relations with Khandro.[3] Eventually she also encountered a young firebender named Sukaya, taking her under her wing and teaching her. Fengying subsequently recommended Sukaya to a Fire Nation military academy to further hone her skills, earning the young girl's lasting gratitude.[4]
Intervening on Jasmine Island
In the 50s BG, Tsenten - by then a member of the Jasmine Island Council - asked for the Guiding Wind's aid. The councilman suspected that the local Earth Kingdom civilian representative, Magistrate Emerald, was engaged in illegal operations. His friends Fengying and Sakuru eagerly responded to the request.[2][3] Both regarded Emerald as the kind of pro-monarchy figure who they had sworn to oppose.[3]
Upon arriving on Jasmine Island, the two Guiding Wind members managed to infiltrate the local Earth Kingdom outpost, where they discovered evidence not just about corruption but a creeping coup covertly led by Emerald.[2] The two discovered that Emerald was also bribing or blackmailing two other members of the Jasmine Island Council, namely Xi Chin and Fu Hong.[5] Before Fengying and Sakuru could escape, the two were caught by the magistrate's guards. Having no intention to allow the revolutionaries to go free with the knowledge of his activities, Emerald subsequently declared them criminals and argued that they should be brought before a court in the Earth Kingdom; thus, he would win time and minimize the chances of a fair trial.[2] Meanwhile, Emerald threw Fengying and Sakuru into a prison located under the Earth Kingdom outpost, allocating them to the "toughest" cells specifically outfitted to prevent their escape. Fengying's cell was filled with straw which would ignite and burn her alive or suffocate her if she attempted to firebend. Despite their harsh imprisonment, they were treated with respect by Buo Ren, the head of the local Earth Kingdom Army garrison.[5]
Yet as news of the arrest spread, Guiding Wind leader Khandro and Zeisan traveled to Jasmine Island to free Fengying and Sakuru. While Khandro tried to find a diplomatic resolution to the dispute, Zeisan secretly allied herself with the Jasmine Island protectors, an organization which also opposed Emerald.[2][3] She asked five protectors to break into the Earth Kingdom outpost to rescue Fengying and Sakuru.[3][6] Among this group was Fengying's former pupil Sukaya, alongside Ukiuk, Qi Wei, Pushi, and Baljin.[6] Ultimately, the protectors and Guiding Wind members foiled Emerald's plans and secured Jasmine Island's independence.[7]
Personality
As a righteous person who disdained the existing inequalities of the world, Fengying sought to overthrow the rule of corrupt nobles and their representatives wherever possible.[1][3]
Abilities
Fengying was regarded as a "capable" firebender and mastered the ability to breath fire.[5][1] She was also a decent firebending teacher.[4]
