(info dump-The White Lotus prisons are five maximum security facilities scattered throughout the world, constructed specifically to detain four criminals: Ghazan, Ming-Hua, P'Li, and Zaheer. In order to ensure that the locations were inescapable, they were established in isolated regions and guarded by White Lotus sentries.Each facility was specifically designed to negate the abilities of its respective prisoner and render any escape attempt ineffective Ghazan's prison is an offshore barge in the middle of the ocean. Constructed entirely out of wood, it served as a countermeasure for Ghazan's bending, as the absence of any traces of earth within his immediate vicinity prevents the use of earthbending. The prison is built high above sea level with four large watchtowers located at each end for the sentries to monitor incoming vessels. At the center of the structure is a large wooden cell bearing the White Lotus insignia in which Ghazan was contained, built with a lattice pattern covering the exterior and a small rectangular slit at the bottom for the distribution of food rations. There are no restraints inside the enclosure and there is enough space to move around comfortably, although the top of the cell itself is sealed.[2]

Ming-Hua's prison is a large fortress built directly over a volcano located in a barren region enclosed by mountain-like rock formations. It has two cells, one on top and the other at the bottom. The prison has several levels consisting of metal platforms that run from the top of the volcano downward, providing a clear view of the metal cell suspended near the bottom of the facility. The enclosure is constructed of metal lattice with four golden dragons adorning the corners. The metal cables attached to the cage connect to beams on the topmost platform which also bear golden dragon heads at the tip and converge to a bell tower used primarily to inform sentries of security breaches. The cell's suspension from the ground and its proximity to an active volcano served as a countermeasure for Ming-Hua's bending, as the absence of moisture and nearby sources of water prevents the use of waterbending.[2]

P'Li's prison is an underground containment facility commissioned by Fire Lord Zuko and Chief Unalaq. It is located deep in the western tundras of the North Pole and served as a countermeasure for P'Li's bending, as the intense cold prevents the use of most of her firebending. Two watchtowers situated directly outside the facility monitor approaching civilians and large metal doors bearing the White Lotus insignia prevent immediate access to the interior. Inside the building is a mechanical elevator which transports visitors deep underground to a platform overlooking the cell, which is reached via a metal ramp that automatically extends from underneath the platform. Although she was restrained by chains, the lattice work on her door allowed P'Li to see outside of her cell.[1] Zaheer's first prison isa pagoda-like mountaintop enclosure located in the middle of a remote mountain range. The structure is constructed entirely out of metal and can be accessed and opened solely through the use of metalbending. An adjacent mountain formation with a large metal watchtower serves as the initial access point to the prison, with a mechanical bridge that extends toward the peak in which the cell is situated. Unlike the other three prisoners, Zaheer's enclosure is entirely covered and has very few openings. Prior to receiving his food rations, a series of sentries would arrive and assume fighting stances, while an earthbender sentry metalbends open a panel revealing a set of bars with a small opening at the bottom to push a food tray through. Zaheer would be forced to retreat to the end of the cell and face the wall with his hands behind his head before the sentries gave him his food. Zaheer's prison had no guards stationed outside, as they were all stationed in the watchtower located on the adjacent mountain) ( in greetings describe the situation his expression his pose and put dialogue)
