Shadow of the Avatar~OOC Hangout

So I just got into watching and finishing Avatar both The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra and I really enjoyed the story of both (Yea I'm late and stuff. Sue me -_-). It inspired me to create an RP of the Anime series with OCs, but will have connections to the main characters in the Avatar series. This RP will take 100 years after the events of "The Legend of Korra" and anything after this is completely original and not related to the plot of Avatar. So if you did not watch the Avatar series, I suggest you avoid this RP as it will contain spoilers and you may be confused on this shmazz and whatnots

(Info can change over time so I will notify if that happens. And PICS NOT MINE D8)

The Story so Far...
170 years ago, Avatar Aang and his friends took down the corrupt Fire Lord Sozin and restored balance to the Fire Nation. The United Republic of Nations was created between the 4 element nations after the end of the war. They created Republic City, a state created by the URN that holds people from all over the land of different nations. The new Avatar, Korra, helped Republic City after fighting with Amon and the Equalists.

In the next 100 years, Korra and her friends helped rebuild the city after the damage Amon caused to the city. The threat was not over, however. During the 100 years, a new type of bending was somehow formed by expert benders. A type of bending that seemed to manipulate the shadows, darkness, and even the negativity in the minds of humans. It was agreed that this bending was not to be ever shown into public and/or used on others. One didn't agree. Waterbending expert Gyroe hid away from civilization and studied on how the bending worked. It was channeled through negative emotions and feelings. He then decided to create a nation who agreed on his ways and those who admired the new bending. He named it "Shadowbending". He wanted to change the world with the new bending. He and his "nation" started to capture and start coups in different cities. He eventually attacked Republic City, but was defeated by Avatar Korra and had his Shadowbending taken away. The problem was that the new bending transferred to the Avatar and now possessed the art of Shadowbending. Gyroe sill taught and collected more for his group. Years after Korra passed, Gyote was dying too, but he knew that the new Avatar would still hold the new bending and will lead the new nation

The Art of Bending

Waterbending~Element used to manipulate water, snow, ice, and liquids.cWaterbenders also have the ability to heal wounds using water. They are stronger in moonlight. Small amount of waterbenders can bloodbend, though it is illegal in the sight of other people. Bloodbending can only be used in the full moon, but some say a few rare waterbenders do not need the full moon to bloodbend...

Firebending~Element used to control fire and heat. FIrebending is stronger in the daylight and even meteor showers. Firebending can be aligned with physical fighting moves. Only the strongest and mastered firebenders can also control lightning, though it is very risky to redirect lightning as it can kill the user

Earthbending~Element used to manipulate the earth. Weather does not really make the element stronger or weaker, but the bender being on earth does make them better since they can “see” using the ground. Expert earthbenders can metalbend, manipulating metal objects just like earth

Airbending~Element used to manipulate the air and winds. Just like earthbending, weather does not hurt or benfit airbending, but being in air does give them an advantage. Due to the last war, only a handful of airbenders exist.

Shadowbending~A new type of bending used to manipulate shadows, darkness, and even the dark thoughts of humans. No one really knows how this bending works, but it’s only function is to control people, capture them with darkness, and destroy them from the inside out. All Shadowbenders are marked as enemies from all 4 nations

Rules
1. Keep things at a PG-13 level (language, romance, violence, yada yada you get it)
2. I know this can be hard to do since this type of RP is very fast paced especially in battle, but keep Godmodding and Power Playing to a minimum. I can notice you if you do it too frequently.
3. Murder is a no-no unless you get confirmation from both the owner and me.
4. Try staying on and posting frequently. It’s very frustrating to see a whole scene being stalled by just one person >_<
5. Only a max of 3 characters per person. You can control NPCs as long as you ask me first.
6. Remember, your OC does NOT have to be a bender (though I’m pretty sure y’all wanna be one xD)
7. I warned you in the beginning, I’ll do it again. SPOILERS AT MAX.
8. You can add more characters if your characters die and stuffz
9. You read everything? Good. Post “Republic City Citizen” in your first post
10. Have fun and keep it dramatic

Kuki kumo is an air bender! Yes, her great grandparents were air benders during the time of the great 100 year war. they were able to hide but their children were nonbenders which meant they were safe from fire nation attacks. But the generation seemed to not allow airbending and soon the family forgot about the gifts. But after 5 times the family finally had their own little airbender which they named Kuki. After honing her ability Kuki traveled to many various places stopping in Republic City knowing that the last of the avatars would be there and helo her excel in her bending.
