 * Cole is the only non-hybrid anything on the Original team.
 * He is a standard Master of Earth; he only comes from one Elemental lineage.

 * Jay has an older brother from his biological parents named Neville, who was revealed in the unreleased Souls of the Rebels spinoff.

 * Contrary to popular belief, Cole was not born in Tangwei; he was born in Everglades but his family moved to Tangwei shortly after because it was safer there.
