Okay, time to get out the fun house mirror, complete with special layer of Hero SheenTM

If bending ability isn't specifically mentioned, its up in the air.

SirNitram: Not Quite the Last Airbender. You can ask where the airbending nomad came from and if there are any more of his people, but the odds of getting an honest answer are slim to none.

Lady Tevar: This Northern Water Tribe knows more waterbending techniques than just those taught in the womens' houses.

frigidmagi: Southern Water Tribe warrior.

Hotfoot: Renegade Dai Li agent.

Marcao: Suave and decadent Bao Sing Se nobleman with more than a few tricks up his sleeve.

Darksilver: Swamp Tribe wanderer

rhoenix: naive Earth Kingdom noble, just learning there's a lot more to the world than he's been allowed to know and now trying to see everything and do everything at once.

General Havoc: former Earth Kingdom general whose failure to suffer important fools gladly and weak bureaucracy-fu leave him in need of a new job.

Stofsk: former student, a former "guest" at Lake Laogai for asking the wrong questions. (Yes, he's "unjustly railroaded by the Man guy")


Throw your ideas into the arena.

hmm..Swamp Tribe huh? What do we Bend..water or Earth? or both..that'd be interesting. I could really screw people up with Water Bending....

Limepink: Eastern Water Tribe Animal Tamer.

B4UTRUST: Previously Unknown and devious Air Bender from the West. Will never give you a straight answer, and comes up with deadly ways to play with you.

Cynical: Fire Nation Aristocrat.

Water benders, as close as you can come to Louisiana Bayou folk and still be Asian flavored fantasy.

Does this mean I have an army of turtle ducks and platypus penguins?

That's just how I see you fitting into the Avatar world. I'm not saying its the most accurate vision, just that its mine. Others may differ. I could be a tiny minority or everyone could agree or no one could agree with anyone else or anything in between.

So naturally you should respond by PM spamming people mercilessly until they post Air Nomad prince versions of you just to get you to shut the fuck up. :wink:

A badass Earth-bending ninja?

Yeah, I think I can find that agreeable, even if it eventually means Azula's none too happy with me.

Honestly, I am a little surprised that there is no Avatar RPG, the setting practically begs for it. There are long histories of conflicts in the world aside from the Fire Nation war of conquest.

Bao Sin Se is the greatest city in the Earth Kingdom and the world, thanks to Earth bending, it is a city that contains (literally) it's own nation with farms, country side and such all with in the walls. The Fire Nation who has been attempting to conquer everyone as only managed to breach the wall once in 100 years of war (this is before the series starts of course).

As a result of this Bao Sin Se sees alot of refugees and has adopted a strict and authoritarian style of rule enforced by the Dai Li, a secret police organization of Earth Benders. One of these rules is no one discusses the war openly in Bao Sin Se. There is no war with in these mighty walls. Even the Earth King (who is more of a cultural/religious figure then a political leader) is unaware of the war. Lake Laogai is the location within the city where those who can't follow the rules are taken for... ah... Adjustment. It's all very North Korean/Chinese.

Lake Laogai is the government detainment center for the "Re-education purposes of the masses". Think conspiracies and tinfoil hats.

An Earth Kingdom General eh? I can hardly complain, but I always assumed I'd be somewhere in the Fire Nation ranks...

I can see it. With both you and frigid settling on which element took a while.

Forgive me, good sir.... *curtsies*

I just realllly like Avatar and it would be very cool to see what a non-biased opinion of what I would be. Cause I know what I would be.... but that's no fun.

Please continue.... Hotfoot made me giggle

You've never talked to me >.> You don't even know what my -main- ego is, let alone any alternatives! We shall get to know each other, and then I will pick an awesome avvy for you, and likewise.



Hrm, if I had to pick one for Rukia it would be


June from Bato of the Water Tribe, the bad-ass slightly evil bounty hunter

Mixed with

On Ji, the cute schoolgirl from Season 3 the Headband


For Rhoenix, Avatar Yangchen Yangchen The air bender before Ang, who was both hardcore and compassionate. Plus shes all spiritual and stuff.


For DS: Except that he evil, and fails at the end...Long Feng, Director of the Dai-le, in Ba sing se.

All the cuddly character are too cuddly >.>

And, I name my puppy, Trumpy, to be MOMO!
