we also got lava bending,
Wait...
Is that fire bending or earth bending?
Earthbending.

There are earthbenders who can make lava, and Firebenders who can do the Sparky Sparky Boom Man thing, but they're both super, super rare. Only 2 of each in the entire franchise, counting both shows. Both lava benders were in Korra, there was 1 combustion bender in each show. I'll let players have those abilities, but probably only one of each.

Alright then.

So my character concept is a firebender who uses swords basically. Already talked with Hugo about it so we worked something out.

Sure. Needs full moon, though. I'll let one character be a rare bloodbender who can do it without the full moon if they really, really want, but they have to advance before they become able to do that, and it won't be as powerful as Amon.

For the record, I wholeheartedly approve. Given the time gap, though, you'll have to be a descendant or someone taking up the mantle.

So, for my character I'm probably going to go with stealth, extreme dodging/agility, chi blocking and herbalism.

Thinking of adding some gadgets onto that as well?

probably, depending on what we'll actually do. Is that another trait?

 I'm also going to get a platinum knife at some point, for reasons.

Been talking with KJ, perhaps ceramic instead of platinum since I'm not sure whether platinum should hold an edge very well.

Ceramic is fine. It honestly doesn't really matter what it's made of, platinum was just the non-bendable metal they used in the show. And the knife is something for in the future, so it isn't a problem yet.

Give me half a day or so and I'll have my Character Sheet, Reserved. Also are we using the Chunky Salsa Combat system?

Name:Gunther, Otherwise known as The Jolly Bandit or Fire-Quencher
Age:Late 30s-Early 40s
Alignment:Chaotic Neutral
Appearance:6'9 feet tall,weighs 300 pounds, He is wearing an eye-patch over his left eye. His face is pitted with scars and his nose has obviously been broken and poorly reset several times. His hair is unkempt and goes down to roughly an inch before it was chopped of with some kind of knife,His greasy beard goes down and covers his neck and lower face. He has  a green eye and his hair is dark brown. He has a very large beer gut and us somewhat chubby overall, However underneath he has the Muscles of a Gorilla. He is very calm and easy-going until he gets into a fight, In which case he almost instantly transforms into an insane Berserk Madman.

Back-story: He was raised by superstitious Farmers that were very kind to him, But when he was 15 his home village was burned and pillaged by an insane Fire-bender and a handful of hired thugs, He's vowed to hunt down Fire-Benders ever since then and he proudly wears a necklace holding a tooth of every Fire-Bender He's ever killed. He takes enjoyment in burning Fire-Bender corpses. He also disdains the Rich because of their wealth and utter refusal to aid the starving and the poor,As such he often takes it upon himself to liberate their funds and distribute them to the needy, It's not uncommon for him to kill a millionaire and then spend the contents of his wallet on drinks for random Tavern-goers and to then donate several 100,000 dollars to the Barkeep. He has a 100,000 dollar bounty on his head over several dozen accounts of murder and high treason, The bounty was set by several rich merchants and politicians who see him as a menace to society, A title which he wholeheartedly embraces as his own. He is quite infamous among local politicians and the Fire-Bending community.Likewise among the homeless community he is revered and they frequently hide him from law enforcement officers and aid him in fights, One bounty hunter stabbed him in the back and was killed almost immediately by no less than a dozen hobos and drunkards, Who then pooled their money to get him into a hospital.

Positive Traits: He Has The Strength Of A Gorilla, Alcohol only increases his Fighting Ability, He is able to go Berserk at a half a moment's notice,He is very street-smart,He is very charismatic, and He is respected and loved by the homeless community.

Negative Traits:He Has a 100,000 dollar bounty on his Head, He is hated by the Rich and Local Fire-Benders,He has an murderous hatred towards Fire-Benders,He has all of the stealth ability of a typical water buffalo,He also has all of the accumulated fine knowledge of a water buffalo,He is very bad at hanging on to large amounts of money,And is addicted to alcohol.
