The Cabbage Merchant

The Cabbage Merchant in the new series will also be the foaming mouth guy.

"Cabbages guy" will have a reincarnation

Or she'll actually be good at her job and be bummed out because having your cabbages ruined several times had become a family tradition. Or maybe she'll even be cabbage bender. Because nothing screams Ruleof Funny like a background character her cabbages being seemingly ruined and then flying back into her cart like nothing happened.

There's a funny entry in CAPSLOCK_ATLA about a "Cabbage Madame", who runs a garden-themed brothel. That's not going to happen on a Nickelodeon show, but I think it'd be hilarious. ...I am too scared to even think about how a cabbage-themed brothel would work.



The Cabbage Merchant had a daughter who ended up marring the foaming mouth guy after the end of the series. When The Cabbage Merchant dies the foaming mouth guy takes up his business to make his wife happy. He ends up having a son who inherits the foaming mouth guy's... foaming mouth . He also takes up the family business. Now whenever Korra and her gang destroy the cabbage cart, the new Cabbage Merchant has a seizure Preferably female and younger. She will appear in one episode, or maybe a few, as a ditzy successor to a cabbage shop who is having troubles adapting and living up to her families expectations.

The cabbage merchant will be the one who started the whole anti bending group.

but it wasn't always benders that destroyed them, don't forget the Customs Officer at Ba Sing Se. The Equalists will also be against bureaucrats. It's not as prominent as the anti-bending, but it's there.



The cabbage merchant after suffering again and again from the actions of even the "good benders" gets disgusted and realizes that the only way cabbage merchants' cabbages will be safe is by ending bending.

The Cabbage Vender's ancestor will come back as a good guy.

Except he will retain his Buttmonkey status and basically be treated as badly as Bakura was in Yu-Gi-Oh abridged.

Korra herself is the Cabbage Guy's descendant.

Eternally conflicted between her Avatar duties and her cabbage-selling family. Angst will ensue upon destruction of cabbages.

The cabbage merchant's luck turned around after the war ended, and he is now the richest old man in Republic City.

Well, Nick.com DID reveal that a corporation called Cabbage Corp made their own Cabbage Cars. Founded by the Cabbage Merchant maybe?

He will have made his fortune exporting cabbages to the Fire Nation and North Pole, where they are used in exotic foreign dishes. After a lifetime of successful cabbage selling, he retired in Republic City and now considers joining the White Lotus Society.

The Cabbage Merchant's legacy will take the form of a Starbucks-like cabbage franchise.

Jossed. They're a tech/industrial company like Sato's future industries.

It was started by the Cabbage Merchant's illustrious descendants, eager to make a profit from their ancestor's secret formula for the perfect cabbage. True to form, practically Once per Episode , Korra will somehow damage one of the many shops in the franchise.

Amon will be the descendant of Cabbage Guy.

Amon claims to be the child a farmer. Where do cabbages come from again?

He seeks revenge upon all benders for the (multiple) loss(es) of his ancestor's cabbage cart(s), which ultimately led to his financial ruin and his family's Start of Darkness

Tenzin and the Cabbage Merchant's descendent will have a Vitriolic Best Buds -type of relationship

Jossed. Tenzin and Lin arrest the poor guy.

It will involve Aang trying to make peace with the Cabbage Merchant after the trouble they've caused him during the war. However, Tenzin will steadily grow to find the child of the CM increasingly annoying. Years later, in Republic City, the Cabbage Merchant's child will become a successful lemon merchant while Tenzin has trouble living up to his father's legacy (that or was forced into hiding because of the anti-bender faction). The lemon merchant then does whatever he/she can to cheer up their childhood pal... by giving Tenzin lemons. Korra will happen upon the poor unfortunate moment where Tenzin will snap because "I don't want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these?" . He will then proceed to force Korra into making the lemons explode with firebending—to the point where it becomes a technique.If the friendship is Type A, the lemon merchant will remain oblivious to the malice and just think Tenzin is confused.If the friendship is Type B, however, the lemon merchant is secretly avenging his father and is gleeful at the absolute irritation it causes for Tenzin.

Bumi when introduced will take on the role of the Cabbage merchent

Jossed. Cabbage Guy's descendant did.

Being the only decedent of an airbender, let alone two powerful benders, who isnt a bender you can tell the universe loves to screw with him

Hiroshi Sato's been outed as an Equalist Cabbage Corp will become a Mega-Corp now that

and in revenge against the Equalists for setting him him/the Krew actually saving his corp/a cabbage cart that's an heirloom, he gives them a brand new car... that's shapped like cabbage or is actually beautiful, but a lemon.

This world's Cabbage is our world's Babbage.

One of the members of the Cabbage family, or at the very least an employee of Cabbage Corp, will invent the first proto-computer.

The Cabbage Merchant is a time-traveling Avatar from the future.

Hi, original poster here, there's more to this story than I realized. Sometime while the Cabbage Avatar is making tons of money, he visits the Banyan-grove tree. Because there's a lot of spiritual energy there and time is an illusion, he accidentally time travels yet again, this time to the siege of Ba Sing Se. Here he meets Lu Ten, who is trying to hide from Earth Kingdom soldiers after the rest of his squad dies in a surprise attack. Lu Ten, seeing the Cabbage Avatar pop out of nowhere, instinctively earth-bends for the first time; Lu Ten is an Avatar too. While the Cabbage Avatar shows that he's able to bend multiple elements as well, noting that there are currently three Avatars in existence right now, yet another person drives up in a nice looking CabbaLorean: Ikki III, great-great granddaughter of Aang, and also an Avatar. She sticks the two other Avatars into the car and takes them back in time further in order to talk without fear of being attacked, this being shortly before Lu Ten's birth. The Cabbage Avatar, upon exiting the car, however, accidentally trips on a cabbage, and dies (and will shortly reincarnate into Lu Ten). Ikki III explains to Lu Ten know how they can accomplish the thing that the Cabbage Avatar originally went back in time to do: take advantage of known events and ensure that Unalaq is born the Avatar after Ikki III. The two bounce around the timeline in their CabbaLorean, ensuring that people will rediscover Harmonic Convergence (it has been 10,000 years after all) until they reach the time shortly before Unalaq is born. Ikki III dies, leaving Lu Ten alone to wait for her to reincarnate into Unalaq. As soon as Lu Ten can get the baby Unalaq alone, he removes the child's ability to bend anything but water (having learned energybending through his past life connection to Korra). Lu Ten then jumps forward in time to shortly before Ikki III's birth and dies, and his spirit finally reunites with Iroh. Ikki III grows up, often wondering what happened to the unknown Fire Avatar before her (and what happened to the Cabbage Avatar), but is mostly concerned with the world problems of her time. When she gets her hands on a newer version of the CabbaLorean than what the Cabbage Avatar used, Unalaq appears out of nowhere, having just accidentally jumped forward in time from after immediately after his battle with Korra. During that battle, Korra's past lives didn't disappear, they transferred to Unalaq. He had figured out what was going on and played his part in the known portions of the timeline, and is a now good guy, especially now that he's been purified of Vaatu's influence. Ikki III restores Unalaq's ability to bend all the elements and goes back in time to the siege of Ba Sing Se. Unalaq serves the world from the time Ikki III goes back in time to his death and all of the Avatars after him have full access to all the Avatars back to Wan.

The Avatar after Korra wants to reunite with all of the first cycle's incarnations of the Avatar, so he uses a Cabbage Corp invention that looks suspiciously like a DeLorean to travel to a time before Harmonic Convergence where he could do some "simultaneous Avatar State" thing that might bridge the gap. Unfortunately, he ends up sometime that Aang is in the iceberg and so takes up cabbage merchantry (in honor of the future corporation) to spend his time, since the CabbaLorean broke down. He tries to be where he vaguely remembers legends of the Gaang going to, but he never gets the opportunity to initiate a simultaneous Avatar State. He even tried to lure Aang in with the play, telling the playwright the legends he remembered/what he experienced to make it more recognizable, but he was imprisoned for using the wrong type of bending in the Fire Nation the night before the Gaang went to the show, and he wasn't released until after Zuko became Firelord. He eventually gave up his quest when he realized he was the founder of Cabbage Corp, and that everything was a Stable Time Loop
