- Ty Lee's martial arts style is a style all of her family knows. She adds in more acrobatics and sheer flexibility, but her sisters, mother, father, cousins, aunts, etc. can all do the chi-blocking thing.

- She is the middle child of seven daughters. Her parents kept trying for a son, which just left them with seven daughters spaced fairly close together.

- Ty Lee is afraid of Azula. She does like the other girl, but she finds the way Azula treats her and Mai to be frightening and potentially harmful.
