Avatar: The Last Airbender head writer and Dragon Prince co-creator Aaron Ehasz is facing allegations of misogynistic behavior after several former employees went public with their experiences.

In one account, a former editor at Riot Games recounted how he disrupted her job when he joined the company. In addition to treating her like his own personal assistant, he is accused of transitioning her editorial duties to a group and shut down her ideas. Later, she recounted how he told her that he planned to hire her full time, had her lay off several team members and then released her from her position without an explanation. What's more, she said he would bring his children to work and leave them with female production staff members without asking.

According to this account, he later attempted to sabotage her career, telling fellow industry members that "I’m a shrieking violent harpy who he was scared of cause when I was leaving I did acts of physicality."

Another woman, who worked as Head of Community Development at his startup Wonderstorm, shared that Ehasz's treatment of women caused her and some others to leave the job. "It was just so much shutting women down, not taking women seriously, not listening to women, firing a woman and then shit talking her," she wrote. "The men at the top constantly talked about how awful Riot was but then treated women at the company like jokes, similar to so much of the behavior I've heard and read about from Riot reports. It was really the worst I've ever felt at a job, ever."

"The general feeling was always... this is Aaron's company, Aaron's show, Aaron's stories to tell (yes, even the ones about women, POC, and lgbtq+ characters), and if you didn't agree you were constantly at risk," she added.

A third woman called leaving the company "the best decision I ever made for myself." She recalled, "I would consistently cry going into work/cry in the bathrooms, not understanding what was wrong with me as a worker because I consistently felt like nothing. I was told that I was ungrateful for my job to my face... We weren't silent at the company either. We wanted to fix things!! We talked about stuff constantly, we just weren't taken seriously. "

In addition to Avatar: The Last Airbender and Dragon Prince, Ehasz's past credits include Futurama, Ed and Mission Hill. He acted as Creative Director at Riot Games from 2012 to 2015, before founding Wonderstorm in 2015 alongside Justin Richmond and Justin Santistevan.

Ehasz has not yet issued a response.
