If he's a novice firebender, then probably not. I'd say give him some room to grow in that respect.

Oh crap, I must have missed you. You wanted to be a driver, right?

EDIT: I know you posted one, but I can't seem to find it

Hugo, if I add training to the past for the lightning, and shorten/ lighten the airship will it be good?

Probably. Give me a ballpark on the cabin size (compared to a boat) and I'll give you a reasonable length.

See, how I imagined it was somewhat more modern, not a blimp but being held aloft by the propellers.

Something like this. It would be more compact and not as fancy.

Being held aloft by propellers takes a lot of energy, and thus wouldn't give the ship much range. That would be more like a very heavy helicopter. Looking at the pictures, they do seem to use a hybrid design: propellers to gain altitude and maneuver, balloons to maintain it.

You wanted a cabin capacity comparable to a sloop, right?

Correct, a sloop seemed to be about the right size.

In which case, that wouldn't need a 500 foot balloon. Something the size of one of those EE airships would probably be reasonable. Definitely room for 2-3 smaller vehicles (a small plane, a car, and maybe a MEC). Or, forgoing one of the vehicles, more cargo.

Oh yeah, could you give a figure on what carnivals are popular? Since this is in an analogue of the cold war.

As soon as I can sort out Gamerlord and Elfeater's characters.

Seriously, where did Gamerlord's sheet go?

What do carnivals have to do with the cold war?
