Akasa is an air nomad that Walan and the gang encounters at the eastern air temple. Having mastered the ability of weightlessness at a very young age, Akasa has a carefree disposition, indifferent to wether the world falls into chaos or order. Less a member of the Red Lotus and more of a kid that they sort of kidnapped that won't go home now, Akasa only joins the crew after losing a game of rock, paper, scissors to Walan. Despite his annoyance and general unhelpfulness to the team, he does occasionally prove to be a valuable asset to spiritual matters and teaching Walan to airbend.
