Toph Beifong

Toph Beifong is a character from the Avatar: The Last Airbender fandom.

Character
Toph is the daughter of Lao and Poppy Beifong and comes from a wealthy family. Toph is a blind earthbender who can see with her feet and the inventor of metalbending. She is also the mother of Lin Beifong and Suyin Beifong and the former police chief of Republic City.

Canon
Sokka

Sokka is Toph's first known crush. She developed a crush on him while they were in the Serpent's Pass. Toph kissed Suki while she was in her arms, while she thought she was kissing Sokka. At one point, Sokka left the group to train, and when he returned, Toph said she didn't care that he was gone before turning away and blushing. Sokka ended up dating Suki, so Toph understandably backed away.

Satoru

Toph developed a crush on Satoru soon after meeting him. Satoru was impressed by Toph, who in turn was happy to form a partnership with him. The two formed a partnership between the Earthen Fire Refinery that Satoru worked at and the metalbending academy that Toph ran. When Aang complained that Satoru and Loban were occupying the sacred land of the Air Nomad, Toph quickly came to his defense. Aang complained that Toph was blinded by her feelings for Satoru.

Kanto

At one point, Toph was romantically involved with a man named Kanto. Not much is known about him, as he was only mentioned. It is unknown if Toph was married to him, dating him, or just involved with him. They had a child named Lin. They split apart before Lin was old enough to remember Kanto. Toph explained that Kanto was a nice man, even though their relationship did not work out. Toph would not tell Lin about Kanto until she was over fifty years old.

Suyin's father

At one point, Toph was romantically involved with an unnamed man. Together they had a daughter named Suyin Beifong, who went on to have five children of her own.

Children
Lin Beifong Lin is Toph's first daughter and the current police chief of Republic City. She is an earthbender and metalbender. Lin is very serious and cold to many. Her relationship with Toph was strained for a long time due to the fact that she arrested Su when they were young. This led to Lin not speaking to Toph for over twenty years. They eventually helped each other rescue Su and her family from Kuvira and reconciled.

Suyin Beifong Suyin is Toph's second daughter, with a different father than Lin. Like her mother and sister, Su is an earthbender and metalbender. She was originally a criminal working for the Terra Triad, and Toph was disappointed in her. Toph eventually had to send Su away from Republic City to live with her grandparents to keep her out of jail. She eventually formed the Metal Clan of Zaofu and got married. Su had five children and eventually reconciled with her mother. Toph was proud of Su for her accomplishments with the Metal Clan.

Fanon
Toph is one of the most popular characters in the Avatar fandom. Many fans find her badass and think she is the best earthbender seen in both series. Many fans hoped that she would be alive in the Legend of Korra and were thrilled when she finally appeared. When it was revealed that Toph had children, many fans began to speculate who the father might be and many were happy to see that Toph ended up with someone after all.
