Premise


The world has gone to war against one another. It has been one year since the Fire Nation decimated the Air Nomads, destroying all of their temples in an effort to wipe them out completely. One year since the Genocide that would start the war that would last for years. It all started, when the Fire Nation began to place colonies among the Earth Kingdom. Avatar Roku tried to convince Fire Lord Sozin to fall back, that it was a declaration of war, but he refused to listen. So the two once close friends fought, with Roku easily defeating the Fire Lord, and told him that the nations must be kept separate, and to never try something like that again.

It was this, and the Fire Lord's wish to "spread the Fire Nation's state of peace and wealth to the rest of the world" that would cause the long war that was to come.

Several years after this fight, Roku's home was being destroyed by a massive volcano eruption. He tried to use his powers as the Avatar to stop it, but he was no match for the destruction. Sozin appeared, offering his assistance, and the two worked together to attempt to stop it, but failed. Roku told Sozin not to breathe in the toxic fumes, and used himself to protect the Fire Lord, breathing in the fumes himself. He called to him, asking for help, but Sozin turned his back on his old friend. With the Avatar out of the way, he could begin his plan of conquest.

Sozin knew that the next Avatar would be one of the Air Nomads, and started making plans to strike out against them. In 0 AG, in order to time the attack with the Great Comet, the Fire Nation struck against the 4 temples belonging to them, and killed most of them, however, some of them managed to escape the massacre, and went into hiding in various parts of the world. Fire Lord Sozin knew that he had to draw them out, and grabbed various artifacts from the 4 temples, and placed them in various villages in the Earth Kingdom, and he drew them out, as they believed that there were other Air Benders there, but were killed by the Fire Nation.

The Earth Kingdom and Water Tribe could not stand this decimation of the life and culture of the Air Nomads, and took up their weapons, declaring war on the Fire Nation. It has been one year since the war began, and now it is time for a new group to form, to fight back against the attacks of the Fire Nation. With the hope of one day bringing the war to an end, and bringing back peace to the world.


The World



The World consists of the Four Nations, each one consisting of different types of Benders, or people who can manipulate the elements. The nations being the Northern and Southern Water Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation, and the Air Nomads. Together, they live in peace for the most part, until the Fire Nation Started a war to take over the world.





Notable Figures

This is the list of people who are well known across the world. Characters might come across them at some point or another, they could be friends and allies, or they could be enemies. Even if they are with the Fire Nation, not everyone is out to stop you.
  • Fire Lord Sozin
  • General Saitou
  • General Moto
  • General Kimura
  • General Zheng
  • General Yoshida
  • King Kuro of the Earth Kingdom
  • Chief Bao of the Water Tribes


Benders


The world is inhabited by elemental "Benders", or people who can control one of the four elements, Air, Water, Earth and Fire. These people each inhabit one of the four nations, the one that coincides with their element. However, their number is fewer than the number of Non-Benders in the world, or those who do not have these abilities. The two groups generally work together in order to succeed and flourish.

There are certain "weaknesses" that are labelled as required. However, you only need one of these required weaknesses, and the other is your choice.

Character Sheet


There are a few things that need to be mentioned. This CS uses the Ability score system from Dungeons and Dragons for certain things. Here is a brief explanation of each one.
  • Strength: Measures your character’s muscle and physical power.
  • Dexterity: Measures hand-eye coordination, agility, reflexes, and balance.
  • Constitution: Represents your character’s health and stamina.
  • Intelligence: Determines how well your character learns and reasons.
  • Wisdom: Describes a character’s willpower, common sense, perception, and intuition.
  • Charisma: Measures a character’s force of personality, persuasiveness, personal magnetism, ability to lead.

There are a few different ways you can go about assigning numbers to you scores. Either you ask one of the 2 GMs to roll for your scores, or you assign 60 points, the average being a 10 in all of them and your scores add up to 60. You may not have an ability score that is higher than an 18, and no lower than a 3. Also, keep in mind the recommended ability scores related to each of the 4 nations.

Some places also ask for modifiers to be added in order to get a total. Here it the chart with the list of modifiers.


AC and HP
These two are the ones in the CS that require modifiers for their totals. AC is your "Armor Class", which determines how hard it is for someone to hit you, while your HP is your "Hit Points", or how much damage you can take before death. Each Nation has a different Hit Die, but at first level you get the max number you could have rolled automatically, and you add your Constitution to it. Your Armor Class is figured the exact same for every nation, that being 10 + Your Dex modifier.

Captured
There is a section at the bottom of the CS titled Captured. This is because every character is starting off in a Fire Nation Prison. What was your character in for? How did they get caught? How long have they been there? Let everyone know what exactly caused your character to be in that place to begin with.

It's a shame no one has popped up with interest in this. I'd suggest my own, but I haven't watched the series in years. There's a lot of things I'd either miss, not include or mess up entirely haha. I like the set-up, though... I miss the show. Used to be one of my favorites, growing up.
