BIRTHDAYS/TIMELINE

-Katara - January 1st in their world, July 5th in Luceti
-Sokka - November 17th in their world, February 25th in Luceti

Sokka in canon is one year, two months older than Katara. Due to Katara's timeline and delayed arrival, it is now one year six months.

GROWING UP

-Hakoda called Katara 'sunshine' as a girl.
-Kya used to sing to them as children.
-Their schooling was handled mostly by Gran Gran.
-One of Hakoda's sled animals, a polar bear dog named Tuyok, died when they were about 7 and 6.
-Katara saw their mother's burnt body. Sokka never saw Kya and it was months before he truly accepted she was dead and not merely gone away.

SOUTH POLE

-Mouse Ears are a common flower in the South Pole summers.
-Artic Lemon Flowers are very pleasant smelling.
-Boats are traditionally constructed from whale bone and fitted with whale skin. Larger ships required imported wood.
-Besides stewed sea prunes, a favorite dessert was whale blubber mixed with snow and sugar (when available) for a dish somewhat similar to ice cream.
-The Southern Lights could be seen from high places, although sometimes they could be spotted from the village. Hakoda used to take Sokka (and once Katara) to a particular spot on the hunting expeditions where they could be seen the clearest. It was believed by their tribe that the lights were the Ocean and Moon Spirit dancing together.

GENERAL

-Elements - the name for the Rock/Scissors/Paper game that Sokka and Aang play. Air beats Water, Water beats Earth, Earth beats Fire, Fire beats Air.
