General Iroh (艾洛 Aì Luò?) is a fictional character in Nickelodeon's animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender. Created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, the character was voiced by Mako Iwamatsu in season one and season two and, due to Mako's death, by Greg Baldwin, in season three and the sequel series The Legend of Korra.
A retired General of the Fire Nation, a nation whose Benders utilize the element of fire, Iroh is the elder brother of Fire Lord Ozai. Though he accompanied his exiled nephew Zuko on his quest to capture Aang in order to restore the young prince's honor and birthright, Iroh wanted to help his nephew become a better person than his father.
In the episode "Tales of Ba Sing Se", Iroh's name was written as 艾洛 (aì lùo) and was dedicated "In Honor of Mako".
Prior to the events in The Last Airbender, Iroh was the firstborn son of Fire Lord Azulon, but when the time to choose his successor came, Iroh let his brother Ozai become Fire Lord, as he was grieving the death of his only son, Lu Ten, in the siege of Ba Sing Se. It was believed that Iroh killed off the last of their world's dragons, earning him the title "Dragon of the West", but it was later revealed that he was secretly the dragons' pupil, and thus learned from them to derive his Firebending powers from vitality rather than the conventional rage. He became a Grand-Lotus (high-ranking member) of the international secret society of philosophers, teachers, and warriors known as the Order of the White Lotus.
