Today, we at Knight Edge Media were given a casting call sheet from Avatar Studios’ upcoming series Avatar: Seven Havens for several series regulars and recurring characters. The casting was done back in late 2023 alongside the roles of Pavi and Nisha. We were also given the full character description for Pavi’s airbending companion, Jae. The only other main character not mentioned here is Captain Karthik, the adult guardian of Nisha. As with all casting calls, each name is a codename for their real character name (i.e, Priya is Pavi & Nikki is Nisha) and also was made under the working title, “Aurora”:
