Chief Hakoda was the father of Sokka and Katara, the husband of the late Kya, the son of Kanna, and the leader of the Southern Water Tribe. Hakoda was a talented ship captain, igloo builder, and weapons maker. Much of Sokka's ingenuity and craftiness was learned from his father.[2] He went off to fight the Fire Nation two years before the end of the Hundred Year War, leaving his children to be raised by Kanna.
