The design of the white lotus tile changes through the course of the series :
- 1st in "Avatar: The Last Airbender" (2005) {The Waterbending Scroll (#1.9)}_, when Iroh holds up the tile he finds in his sleeve.
- 2nd in "Avatar: The Last Airbender" (2005) {The Desert (#2.11)}_, when Iroh makes the first move in the game.
- 3rd in "Avatar: The Last Airbender" (2005) {Sokka's Master (#3.4)}_, the tile given to Sokka by the butler more closely resembles the first design.
Aang, Katara, and Sokka continually travel through Fire Nation villages wearing Air Nation and Water Tribe clothes, but it only becomes a problem suddenly in Book 3's The Headband. No one notices the trio isn't Fire Nation in Book 1's The Deserter despite being the only ones not wearing Fire Nation clothing.
