“Avatar: The Broken World” is set a hundred years after the events of “Avatar: The Legend of Korra.” But first, let me take you back to the beginning. In the years after Avatar Korra, tensions between Benders and non-Benders kept rising. Conflicts occurred, but non-benders, even Chi-blockers, proved too weak to fight the powerful Benders. Thus, in secret, a virus was developed by the underground anti-Bender movement; A deadly virus which aimed to affect only Benders. When it was released into the public, a wave of death followed. But the scientists had miscalculated. The virus spread not only to Benders, but to non-Benders just as well. People died in droves. Cities quickly became unsafe. Some cities were bombed in hope of exterminating the virus, but that achieved only more suffering, and large areas became inhabitable due to radiation. More and more, people avoided one another, as not to become infected. A few evolved, becoming immune to the virus, but they were few indeed.
A hundred years later, mankind is nearly extinct. Everyone has forgotten the Avatar, and none of the great nations remain. Once great cities now lie in ruins, and the strong prey on the weak like animals. Everyone has to fight for resources. It’s a post-apocalyptic world where you have to struggle to survive. Benders still exist, and are in some communities revered as near god-like beings due to their now rare talents. Some Benders use their power for good, but the greater majority of them exploit it.
In this RP, you will play the role of the reincarnation of the Avatar. As the last hope, will you manage to stitch together this broken world? Or will you fail and let it dwindle into non-existence? I will RP your guide in the form of the last member of the Order of the White Lotus.
