The RP is set in Republic City, before the events portrayed in the Legend of Korra. The equalists haven't caused too much trouble, other than their continuous propaganda in the Republic City Park. The RP will revolve around the players in this year's Pro-Bending Tournament and all the drama that surrounds them.
[h2]The Game[/h2]
[quote][i]Pro-bending is a popular sport originating in Republic City that involves two teams of three benders, one from each of the three main bending arts. The objective of the sport is to gain as much territory within the ring as possible within three minutes, or, alternatively, to drive the members of the opposing team over the edge of the ring.[/i][/quote]
The Pro-bending Championship Tournament is an annual sporting event that features the sixteen best teams in the entire league. Played during a week in the last month of the year, the teams compete in elimination-style matches, with the winning team receiving the jackpot prize following the championship tournament. Each tournament team must ante up thirty thousand yuans for the championship pot in order to participate, making the total pot worth four hundred eighty thousand yuans.

The tournament follows an eight-match elimination round consisting of the sixteen best teams. A quarterfinal made up of four rounds is conducted, consisting of the eight winning teams from the previous leg of the tournament. The four teams that win their respective matches advance to battle each other in a semifinal round, consisting of two different matches. Finally, in the finals, the two winning teams at the end of the tournament face off in the championship match. The winners receive the jackpot and the title of being that year's pro-bending champions.
