Izumi is a minor heroine in the animated series The Legend of Korra. She is the Fire Lord of the Fire Nation, daughter of Lord Zuko, the niece of Azula, the granddaughter of Ozai and Ursa, the grandniece of Iroh II, the great-granddaughter of Azulon and Ilah, and also mother of General Iroh. She was voiced by April Stewart.
Description[]
Following her father's abdication, she ascended the throne in 167 AG. She is among the leaders of the nations called in to deal with threats to the balance of both nature and political harmony. Much about her is unknown save for that she seems emotionally repressed while still being dedicated to making sure no one throws the nations of the world out of balance like her ancestors had. She is very concerned with the Fire-Nation returning or even appearing to return to its warmongering ways from the previous generation.
Personality[]
Because of the Fire Nation's past of forcing the whole world into a pointless war, Izumi refuses to take part in an unprovoked offensive against the Earth Empire unless there is absolutely no other choice. She does, however, agree to grant President Raiko her support in defending Republic City should the Earth Empire attack first. Her son has also described her as someone who would be willing to assist or at least hear out the Avatar. Though considering her later position regarding the Earth Empire, it's unlikely that she would've lent military support in the Water Tribe Civil War based solely on Korra's word at the time. Likewise, she keeps the Fire Nation a relatively pacifist state due to the bad reputation still lingering from the Hundred Year War. She seems to be in a better mental state than her father, which may indicate that he raised her well and avoided the bad parenting of Sozin, Azulon, and Ozai.
