    Default Avatar:Bending War OOC [M]


    Rated mature for profanity, possible sex scenes, images of war, possible graphic scenes, and possibly drugs?


    "If the Avatar cared about what was happening now, they sure haven't showed it, I know I have no right to say something like that, but with the way things are now, I like to think I have all the right to say it. So let me start by saying that the world isn't like it was when Avatar Korra was around, in fact, I want to say that she made it worse, the fact, that she let Amon get away the moment he did, is the reason we're stuck in this situation only 83 years later. I'll tell you as much as I can.

    Amon survived the explosion far off the mainland of Republic City, Tarrlock didn't. Amon floated in the destroyed particles of the boat to be saved by a rogue ship which was loading supplies into Republic City Bay, they nursed him back to health, some of his scars and injuries permanent, he walked among some of the workers on the ship, establishing a job with this ship, his face too disfigured for anyone to actually recognize him as Amon, or Noatok, all the while his enemy Avatar Korra excelling in her years, growing older, his regrets grew into plans for revenge. Later a decade after the whole Amon craze, he got married and had kids, these kids would be victim to much of the same punishment his own father asserted on him and his brother, he taught them bloodbending in a slow secretive pace, one a girl the other a boy, and another child on the way.

    Amon had suddenly planed his rise to the top, rebuilding his organization slowly, and through very diabolical planning which would bring back the hatred Non-benders had for Benders. As his children grew older they became acquainted with Chi blocking, and taught this skill to others who were curious to have it, this became the career they had chosen, but they had been passing the torch, with a newly created resistance. The Neo-Equalists, which were part rumor and part underground at the time. The rumors weren't enough to convince Avatar Korra that anything was legitimately wrong, despite the fact that other famous benders where secretly murdered, their deaths blamed on the crime surrounding Republic City, which quickly resulted in an investigation, which led to no evidence.

    A rather minor mishap, that was quickly forgotten, Republic City's population had overflowed to the point of overcrowding, the council was quick to suggest that the Earth Kingdom sacrifice more of its land in order to expand its population, the Earth Kingdom quickly denied this, tensions raised, with an older Avatar Korra, defending the Earth Kingdom, unfortunately it hadn't been enough, after 5 years of a mini civil war between the two sides, the technology that Republic City had led to its victory and a Concordat being struck between the two nations, The Earth Kingdom basically became Republic City, and the City became a Nation. Republic Nation to be exact. This was maybe 30 or so years after Amon supposedly disappeared.

    After this, the City made plans to leave the decadent, now aging buildings of Avatar Aang's time, they began to build and reconstruct new buildings, with new technology this process was immensely quickened.The City abandoned its old buildings and left it for the destitute, as the rest moved into the newly rebuilt Ba Sing Se. about 50 years have passed at this time. Amon has died, and his children now take the on the responsibility of building the Neo-Equalists. They start out small like before, murders of famous Non-Benders instead all of them mysteriously killed by the elements. This later produced fear in the vast majority of the population who began to fear and despise the benders publicly for the first time since the start of Amon's revolution. Politicians promised to remove these so called blights in the Republic Nation through various campaigns, which led to riots between both Benders and Non-Benders. The first major action was the bombing of the Pro-Bending Arena, and then its subsequent destruction thereby terminating the Games. The Neo-Equalists were suddenly sought after for protection from any Benders willing to take the life of any famous Non-Benders and politicians.

    This connection to the higher ups resulted in a sudden propulsion of the Neo-Equalists, they were supported once again, although once being associated with a lie for a leader, they rose to power, becoming public, and were quick to take away bending, this caused many people to move to the Slums where they were admittedly safe from the Equalists persecution.This went on for years as they spread to other continents, and cast out most benders, leaving only the Water Tribes out of it for the sake of any attack. 30 years passed, and most of the continents had been split apart, with tensions rising between both factions, and a new gang, well I like to call them that, the Bloods, have begun to use bloodbending for crime, its all a big mess, really. Not to mention the Airbenders aren't for the whole expansion thing for Republic Nation, they think it's destroying the environment, and they fight against it all while seeking refuge in the Slums with us Benders. Avatar Korra died recently up in the Northen Water Tribe, or so I heard, and a new Avatar has to be chosen, though like I said before, I doubt they'd be able to do anything except make the situation worse."


    Summary:


    80 years after the events of Legend of Korra. The world has been turned inside out by the Bender versus Non-Bender conflict, its been so tumultuous that many of the major continents and the newly formed Republic Nation has been split into two sectors for each type of people. I this struggle we have the Pro-Benders, who are pretty much all benders in existence or those who are willing to go against the Neo Equalists, and Non-Benders who support them. The Neo-Equalists who rose from the charred remains of Amon's legacy to become the number one driving force against all Benders. The Airbenders who are struggling to survive and are fighting against Republic Nation's expansion for the safety of nature. The Avatar, who has yet to appear. And the Bloods who are just in it for the money, and is being sought after by both sides of the revolution. A war in the future seems completely inevitable, as each side fights valiantly. You could be the very person to dispel this, or engage in an all out war, or maybe you just want to ignore it all? Which side will you choose?


    Associations/Gangs

    Neo-Equalists:
    The Neo-Equalists are led by Amon's children, and is soon to be headed by his grandchildren, Amon barely survived the explosion his brother Tarlock had trapped them both in, and was quickly taken in by a cruise ship traveling back to Republic City, he rebuild his resistance underground slowly and careful all the while evading Avatar Korra's watch as the tensions between Benders and Non-Benders increased, Finally after nearly 30 years the Neo-Equalists were officially formed with some of the wealthiest corporations in Republic City, after the Bending Revolution was introduced, the Neo-Equalists were reinstated into Republic City society as the official police force rather than the Metalbenders which were once led by Lin Bei Phong. None of the members of the Neo-Equalists are actually benders excluding the two leaders and their sons, who know how to blood bend and take away bending permenately. They are prone to holding executions of several Pro-benders, the only promise keeping the leaders of the Neo-Equalists alive is the fact that they will be forever faithful to those who cannot bend, and if they are caught in traitorous activities they will be executed by officials.

    Amon has died from old age, and his injuries, the Neo Equalists are looking from any Trespassers from the Pro-Bending side, and our therefore involved in undercover Activites. The Neo Equalists are on every major continent (Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation) with the Water Tribes being restricted to them. The Neo-Equalists replace the Metalbending Police Force in Republic Nation these days.



    Leaders
    !~Please PM me if you want to take these positions~!
    • Neo-Equalists Leader #1:Open (Male)
      Neo-Equalists Leader #2:Open (Female)

    Pro-Benders

    The Pro-Benders are named in tribute to the Pro-Bending Championship which was terminated due to the No Benidng conflict, the arena was destroyed and riots continued for days on end, ending in a split of Republic City between the Benders and Non-Benders. The Pro benders live in a perpetual state of porverty and crime, with very few living in Middle class, if you could even call it that. In order to enter the other half of Republic City, a bender would need to have their bending taken away in a public demonstration, to remind the others living in the other half of the Neo-Equalists dominion. In general, The Pro Benders side of Republic City is a haven for other Benders who have been persecuted by other continents for their bending, despite being so close to the main enemy.

    Most of the Nations are split between the two sides causing many refugees to join the Pro Benders in the Slums.

    Airbenders


    A very small group of Airbenders, most of them related to Avatar Aang himself have build a small temple on the Slums side of Republic City to protect them from the current tension. There are an estimated 40 members of the Temple, who are not all Airbenders.

    Leaders
    !~Please PM me if you want to take these positions~!
    • Airbenders Leader #1:Open (Any gender)
      Airbenders Leader #2:Open (Any gender)

    Non-Benders


    Non-Benders mostly consist of your average everyday people who choose not to bend, or can't bend at all, many of them are against the Pro-Benders, but not all of them of course, some of them have actually joined the Pro-Bending cause, although memebers of the Neo-Equalists use specialized Chi Blocking, and other Non-Benders use martial arts.


    The Bloods


    The Bloods is an organization created after one of the leader's sons separated from the Equalists, finding that the conflict of Benders versus Non-Benders should be exploited for wealth, and that instead whichever side they choose to be on, should make the other side pay in Yuang in order to considered a citizen. The entire organization consist of Blood bender and they are affiliated with neither of the sides. Instead they are responsible for many of the murders, and crime that influence both sides of Republic City and certain parts of the World. They are currently being sought after by both sides as a solution to the problem before a full out war occurs.

    The Avatar will be primarily an Earth Bender, mainly because the cycle of the Avatar host goes from water, earth, fire, and air, Korra was a Waterbender which means that the next Avatar must be an Earthbender.

    This Earthbender will know only Earthbending and any of it Subsets (Sandbending/Mudbending), they are restricted due to the Bender versus Non-Bender controversy. They will either be looking for some teachers to instruct them in other elements or traveling around.

    Two questions: If we extrapolate upon the current Avatar timeline, the setting would be somewhere similar to our world's 1980s. That what you had in mind, or were you thinking of changing that up?

    And could you clarify what spiritual self means?

    1) I was thinking of changing that up a bit, a mix of retrofuturism like Fallout for example, how in the game they had lasers and advanced weapons all while keeping a very 50's atmosphere to it. As far technology goes, we do have improved bombs, not so much on the level of a nuclear weapon, guns exist but only belong to the wealthy for protection, high speed tanks, neon lights, but a very Asian atmosphere to it, sprawling metropolises, which mostly consist of the Newly formed Republic Nation, Cellphones, Televisions, Prosthetic limbs, things like that .

    2) In the show, the Avatar's spiritual self represented the connection they had to the past Avatar's, what I'm asking for is, how connected is your self-created Avatar to the spiritual side? Can you communicate with the past Avatar's? Can you, or have you gone into the Avatar state? or do you have a spiritual block like Avatar Korra did?

    Yeah. For example, on mine, he is very in tune with nature and sometimes has dreams or visions while meditating that he doesn't understand. Of course that'll change if he doesn't get chosen. I have an alternate CS for him that is very much different in some aspects.

    As far as character sheets go I want at least one character for each organization, and of course an Avatar before we officially start. If we can't we just need at least a Neo-Equalist and the Avatar.
