The World...
This story takes place two centuries after Aang's passing in a place known as The Republic, the last nation on Earth. This nation is made up almost entirely of nonbenders after benders were aggressively removed from the face of the planet. Everyone lives happily within the walls of Ba Sing Se where they have been enjoying a time of great peace. The city itself is still divided by walls although most of the walls are no longer made of Earth. Replacing the parts that have been torn down are man made metal sections that stand just as tall and are twice as strong. Technology here is near future, near future as compared to real life modern technology. They have computers, jets, wearable tech, limited AI. There are two types of firearms in the world: Conventional and those that utilize Spirit Energy or Synergy. The later is rare and is only distributed among those Republic troops stationed in the inmost wall. Social class is still divided by the walls, with poverty increased the farther away from the center one finds himself.
Outside the walls of Ba Sing Se is the dead world. A great conflict from the past scarred much of the landscape with destructive weapons leaving the former capitols of nations blanketed in spiritual radiation. Wandering into these areas will leave one with a life force draining effect that will eventually kill that person. Most of these dangerous zones are marked by signage or some other such warning. The war pushed much of the flora and fauna to extinction with those left being forced into a populated controlled environment so that they can be farmed. This has left much of the world barren with little life to be found and many sources of water poisoned. The southern spirit portal has been sealed though the northern portal has been kept open and is used to harvest Spirit Energy.
Life inside the walls of the city, as opposed to outside the walls, is still good and the people live happily. What few benders that are known to exist work for the Republic and all follow the will of the King who rarely reveals himself to the public eye. To keep this peace, benders are outlawed and are actively searched for and expunged. Law enforcement officers are armed with scanning devices that detect the ability to bend in one's genes. Many establishments in the city have them installed over doors as well for protection. If a bender is discovered lethal force by an officer is authorized. It may seem grim but since these laws have been put into place, there have been little to no conflicts... let alone wars.
The Story...
Our story focuses on four individuals who discover they have the potential to bend the elements when very few can and when doing so is outlawed. They must learn to cope with their new found powers, embrace and master them or discard and forget them, and finally, find out what happened to the Avatar.
