Li Fuimatsu Guruimatsu Shilang (or just Li Shilang) is a sandbending master, private guard, and billionaire businessman who currently resides in the Upper Ring of Ba Sing Se, where he lives along with his younger sister, Shizuka Shilang.

Li was born in a sizable village located somewhere within the Earth Kingdom Provinces as the son of Daisuke Shilang, his father, and Hinata Shilang, his loving mother.

Being the bearer of the Shilang surname, he was born as a member of a high profile family-run business conglomerate, known as the Shilang Trade Guild, where each member must take it upon themselves to work for the guild after they reach a certain age.

[THIS IS STILL A WIP, AND ANYTHING BELOW THIS MESSAGE IS OUTDATED.]

Li Shilang was born in an Earth Kingdom village as a member of a high profile family trade guild, his father is Daisuke Shilang, the leader of the guild, and his mother is Hinata Shilang, along with several siblings. He started out by helping his family, but then, he was trained at a very young age, which is where he developed strong earth bending skills. Just like every bender, his training was extremely tough and difficult, and was specifically focused on repetitiveness, this technique was used to help Li use his bending skills with more ease and less trouble. At only 15, he began fighting stronger foes to protect the guild, which eventually resulted in him getting gravelly injured after 1 of his fights, which forced him to set down and recover. This gave him time to work on his family’s trades and sell products to locals on his village, which then grew to other provinces and cities. Before officially leaving the village, he was given a short session about sand bending, which lasted until his birthday. At 16, he left the Earth Kingdom to trade with other kingdoms and grow his guild to keep the Shilang family tradition alive, which also helped him improve his endurance by travelling several kilometers. At 18, he already dominated strong techniques with his earth bending, and while he is an experienced bender, he can still pack quite the punch with melee weapons as well. Now, at 24 years old, he came to Ba Sing Se with his younger sister, Shizuka Shilang, to find a house, sell his products, and train.

Soon after arriving, he met Shitu, a Lower Ring animal control employee who was in love with him, they dated for a while, and a few months later, they got engaged, however, their relationship was not stable at all because of one reason: Shitu was a criminal.

Their engagement was devastated, as Shitu went to jail several times and kept committing quite a lot of crimes, but Li never gave up.

However, one day, Li received a message and learned that Shitu was arrested and taken to the mental asylum, and he has never seen her ever again, and presumes that she is dead.

This gave him the opportunity to focus on his training with Chang So, and he is currently very close to mastering sand bending, which means that Li is close to finding out if he can glass bend, which is one of the rarest bending abilities of all time.

Not only that, but Li has fallen in love again, this time, it was with Ai, a young waitress that has many jobs to sustain herself, which he admires.
