Story: Growing up in the early days of Ba Sing Se's industrial revolution, Galen had always found interest in the city's progress following the Hundred Year War. Learning metalbending from one of the city's older mechanics at a relatively young age, Galen found himself serving the loosely-organized law enforcement of the city as a respected instructor and machinist, with the hopes of keeping the balance that so many had fought for, and died for, many decades ago. Considering that traditional earthbending requires direct contact with the ground in order to move large masses of earth, Galen was forced to implement alternative long-range low-mass bending techniques into his arsenal in order to teach others in similar situations to level the field against the countless criminal organizations of the massive city. This style of earth and metal bending also reflects on his ability to bend fire with uncommon precision, another skill resulting from his exposure to the element while working with metal.
