She would have definitely been born in the Fire Nation, though I could see her having toured with her family out of the nation. May I ask generally where I should expect her to be from the start of the rp? That way I could work from there as to how she got there.
As for her thoughts on the war effecting her homeland, she fears the loss of her culture. She believes that the Earth Nation's takeover is going to wipe out the culture of her people.
The rp is starting in a fishing village in the south. Looking forward to the sheet as I think it'll answer any other questions I might have.

Thank you for answering my question. Since we already have a fire and air bender, I'm thinking of making an earth or water bender.
Feel free to do as you please, there's only one accepted character so far and the thread will stay open for the rest of the week
@Hero
I am interested in joining this rp. I had an idea for a grumpy water, fire, or earth bender. I was just curious if you would allow my character any of the specialized bending techniques (i.e. blood bending, metal bending, lightning bending etc?)
Allo, the timeline's been altered so many of the specialized bending techniques have yet to be discovered by the public. The most plausible to be known pre-rp would be lightningbending with the pre-requisite of being of the royal family or nobility. Hope that answers the question!

Alright! Let me rework my thoughts a bit.
The new idea is a sort of mash up of 2 and 3. That’s mostly because I started to like the idea of a traveling performer the more I thought about it last night.
She was a fire bending traveling player (theatrical performer), trained from her youth in storytelling and acrobatic performance. However, she spent her life in the shadow of her brother, who became quite famous. It caused her to build up a resentment towards her family. When she saw the beams of light, she saw her chance to leave the nest and create a legend that would make her as famous as her brother.
Her goal would be to find the avatar, though there are several reasons for that. Firstly, finding the avatar means a sort of underdog story where the Fire and Water nations win the war. This alone would be a great legend to tell, but being one of the people who found the avatar would put her in a unique position. Not only would she be one of the people in that legend, but she’d have the unique role of having taken part in it.
Secondly, I might still grapple with that loath for a waste of life. I’m not quite sure how yet, but I think it’d be interesting for her to tackle that in conjunction with her need for an interesting story (especially since those often involve death). Though I’m not entirely sold on the idea yet.
Thirdly, she fears the Earth Nation’s takeover. She knows that it would result in her arrest. Even if it didn’t, there would be no way she’d be allowed to perform, especially with her fire bending. That would take away her life’s purpose.
Is this scenario with your character in their homeland of the Fire Nation? 'Cause you'd have to consider how they got from the Fire Nation to the Earth Kingdom, unless maybe she already lived in a Fire Nation settlement in the Earth Kingdom. And if she was already there, the Fire Nation was attacked a year ago and every non-Earthbender has essentially gone into hiding since as any non-Earthbenders have gotten arrested and shipped away. I also seemed to have missed your character's thoughts on the war affecting her homeland.
gettin exciteddd
Forgot to mention it in the OOC but please ensure your character is 18+, my cranky old self doesn't want to deal with minors :)
Has metalbending been invented in this timeline? Has the earth kingdom managed to take over the Si Wong tribes?
Metalbending isn't an art known to the public at this time. The Si Wong tribes have remained relatively neutral in regards to the current conflict; sending soldiers ill equipped to the desert to subjugate isn't a good use of resources.
Claiming the concept now while I work on CS. Airbender who never cared for peaceful ways and as such has not been considered a master despite his proficiency. Wanted to join the Fire Nation to help a year ago but was strong-armed by his fellow monks and only allowed to play messenger for the Water Tribes. Finally said, "Fuck That, I don't care if I get exiled and never earn my tattoos. Someone needs to find this Avatar," after the light beams.
I'll put my thoughts out on this once I get the full context in the CS. I will, however, put out a reminder that airbending is strongly tied to spirituality. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
