So I got this idea of playing an Avatar RP with a twist, I will see who is worthy of being the Avatar and surprise you. Meaning to say it's a sudden twist, it can be anyone as in your character or someone else we know and interact. The idea of the avatar here, yes I know 4 elements classic learning but it will also involve pro bending and other themes such as politics and espionage.

Bending here. The more spiritual a bender is, the stronger they are. Meaning with more technique.
Example, once you learn true firebending from dragons you are stronger than a pro-bender/ firebending master since they ain't got no dragon aka the true master.

Everyone will start with one element, water benders can do ice however. Subsets will be obtained. Unless I see you good enough for it.

The Cycle.
Screw Korra no offense to her fans The Avatar Cycle is still intact as everything started with Wan.

Fire-Air-Water-Earth is the true cycle, yep I retconned the mistake Korra did. Avatar State will not be spammed unless I permit you to use it in the most logical way. I also kinda want a Dark Avatar then the cycle starts with Water-Earth-Fire-Air-Vaatu's version and yeah Unalaq is the first dark avatar so no problemo that you can talk to him etc same goes to the original avatar where you have access to past lives wisdom. It will be a battle of ideals then, meaning each side have evil counterparts of bending masters~!

Roles like being part of the royal family can work too etc.

I'd be catering to 7 people for now~
Last but not least I wanna remind:
Current avatar would be a fire bender as the dark avatar would be water. Again, this is you guys whom I may choose!
Any questions?

Interested, but a few questions. What year, or technology level, will this be at? Before or after Korra or the original show? Also, perhaps in the plot people have forgotten what cycle the avatar is on more the sake of not knowing who may be it. Else the spam making of fire benders might occur idk. (I prefer firebending actually but don't like it looking seemingly like I would only make a firebender from possible avatar position.)

interested! i've had a set of twins in mind for some time, a firebender and a waterbender. i'll probably pick based on what other people are picking so that it's more balanced out.

also, i agree with dndragons, having the cycle of the avatar be unknown would make for more suspense.

Here's what I have for you guys:
It's a surprise but here's what Imma tell ya. The timeline is vague on how many avatars past etc will be slowly revealed but tech wise it's 21st century.

The world enters a new era to where Zaheer's ideals put to reality with some tweaking of course, it is a world where there is no Avatar and while there are Fire Lord, President of Republic city and all leaders. All of them were ruled under one Emperor, a rule of the Dark Avatar. Imma call Book 1: Restoration.

That sounds good to me, though won't modern technology make bending relatively redundant, at least in terms of combat capability?

Speaking of, can I play a non-bender? Maybe a military officer or something?

You are absolutely correct. The main idea is to master the roots and we will see how past bending vs modern bending work out in the RP.
Kinda like how Korra bending sucks hard no offense since it's just normal punches and kicks while TLA bending has more technique and awesome martial arts.

Yes, you can play a non bender.

Just going to say though that the reason Korra bending was different, especially with Mako, was that it was based off more modern martial art styles and things like kickboxing or MMA. Not saying it's funner to watch compared to Zuko firebending-

What is the governmental policy of the "Dark Avatar"? Just so I can play someone who contrasts. Also, what are the main reasons people are unsatisfied with his/her rule?

The rule of the dark avatar is like a creeping horror that swallows up ones well being, right being viewed as wrong and wrong being viewed as right. I took some traits from Kim, Hitler etc but darkness is deceiving at the same time. Land of corrupted, temptation etc.

Reasons: You'll find out but to those who see the flaw of his rule is because of tyranny. Similar to Ozai's rule but imagine, if he actually succeeded as Phoenix King for a long time.

@Dragon, I love Tifa and Asuna so you can keep all :p but yeah breast wrapped is the way to go :p

That description of the policy is rather vague. Is there severe oppression? What is the economic policy like? Is the society heavily stratified? Is there institutionalized prejudice? Is there any autonomy among subordinate rulers? How centralized is the government? Is the state highly militaristic?

Also, I assume we're all going to be playing enemies of the "Dark Avatar", correct?
