War, dissonance. Peace, harmony. Both are two sides of the same coin, as much as people may attempt to deny it, one cannot live without the other. Where there is peace, blood must be shed to obtain it. This is balance, this is what the Avatar; wielder of the four elements strives to keep amongst the four nations. However, even with the almighty power of the Avatar, there will always be someone who wishes to disrupt this balance and attempt to rule the four nations under one banner. Although no matter what obstacles stand in their way, in the end, the Avatar will always turn out victorious and bring back balance. This was the case until recently, usually every one hundred years or so, a new Avatar is born, and within a matter of a decade or two the knowledge of who the new Avatar is spread across the land. It's been nearly a hundred and fifty years since the previous Avatar passed away and there have been no signs of who or where the new Avatar is, all that is known is that the Avatar was born a member of the Water Tribe as the previous Avatar was an Air Nomad.

As expected, it wouldn't be long before the absence of the Avatar caused those with mischievous intentions to take action. One of these individuals just so happen to have been a rather well-respected nobleman that was part of the Fire Nation, not only that but he was a very skilled Firebender as well. At the time, the current Fire Lord had been none other than Iroh or otherwise known amongst many as The Dragon of the West. Under his rule, peace was established among the four nations. However, with this nobleman and his intentions of making the Fire Nation the ruling force throughout the land and with his respected name, he was able to rally the citizens of the Fire Nation to overthrow Iroh from his position. Rather than attack his own people and enforce his rule, Iroh decided to flee for both his own safety as well as the safety of his people. Going into exile from his own nation and hiding away, he found his way to Ba Sing Se where the Earth King had taken him in as a refugee due to their positive relationship with one another. Giving Iroh his own tea shop to run while he remains in hiding.

Meanwhile, under the new rule of the current Fire Lord, within a matter of months, the once nobleman now turned Fire Lord had commenced an invasion throughout the globe. Unlike many of the other Fire Lords prior to Iroh who had attempted to take rule over all the nations and failed due to the Avatar, this time due to the absence of the Avatar, it wasn't long before nearly every part of the globe was under Fire Nation rule. The only place to this day that still remains battling relentlessly against the Fire Nation is Ba Sing Se, with its massive walls protecting the city, any attempts at conquering the Earth Kingdom have always ended up failing for the Fire Nation. While the Earth King refuses to go to battle against the Fire Nation due to the overwhelming power that the Fire Nation holds, little does he know that within the walls of the city as well as many other parts of the globe, a rebellion had been forming, slowly battle against the Fire Nation itself. As many other civilians continue to pray til this day for the return of the Avatar, wherever they might be.

Faq:
Q: Will there be canon characters playable in the roleplay?
A: No, there will be no canon characters that will be playable. The only canon character that will be present in the roleplay is Iroh and even then, he will be considered an NPC. Not to be used by many as he will not make a big appearance in the roleplay.

Q: Are there roles that need to be filled?
A: Yes and no. There are no specific roles that need to be filled, however, if you wish to play a certain role you can think up as. Feel free to let me know and I shall add the role into the roleplay.

Q: Are there any roles that CANNOT be played?
A: Yes, the Firelord, Rebel Leader, Avatar, and Earth King CANNOT be played as actual characters and are meant to be NPCs that anyone can play as.

Q: What time period is the roleplay taking place?
A: The roleplay is taking place after the time period where ATLA takes place but a little bit before the time period in which Korra is in.

Hi there! Iโ€™m very interested. I have been feeling nostalgic about avatar very recently and this feeds that itch nicely.
 
Hi everyone! I've been part of the planning process with Nothingness Nothingness so if you read this back later and I made a mistake let me know but welcome to everyone else! Since right now he is feeling a bit under the weather I'm going to do my best to answer questions.

Hi, are there any age restrictions?
If you mean for characters, there are no strict restrictions to my knowledge as long as you make it work or make sense.
But if you mean as individual players, I am unsure but I do not believe there is an age restriction.
Hope that answers your question one way or another!

I'm interested in some ATLA action. What is the status of the air nomads?
I do believe in the conversations I've had with Nothingness then they are still alive and air benders are still around.


If there are any more questions please let me know and I'll do my best to answer until our gm feels better!

Hello!
No, there are no age restrictions. You may play any age range you wish, quite obviously it will need to make sense as 606 stated. So, clearly enough nothing crazy in age that is unrealistic in a fantasy setting like being hundreds of years old.

Heeyy! Thank you for your interest and welcome aboard!

Id be interested in this as a earth bender.
Awesome! Thank you for your interest!

Interested! :D
Nice! Thank you for your interest!

Sweet! Thank you for your interest and as 606 stated, they have spoken with me regarding plotting..and indeed the air nomads still exist in this world. Airbenders are still a thing, however, in this world it does not mean you HAVE to have been an air nomad to be an Airbender, you can make them learn the airbending from the nomads but they don't have to follow the route of being only a monk in the end for your character sheet.

Interested!
Awesome! Thank ye for your interest!

Already know I'm interested, but might as well throw this up!
But of course XD

It appears that since we've got quite the number of people interested, I am confident enough to start making the threads. I will get up all the different threads as soon as I possibly can. I am currently fighting through a cold right now, so hopefully the sooner that is dealt with, the sooner I'll get able to get the threads started.
Apologies for the late replies by the way everyone.
 
been rewatching atla so this is perfect! definitely interested :)
 
Always interested in anything ATLA. Like to join if there is still a space available.
Awesome! Thank you for your interest! There is almost always space for anyone to join!

been rewatching atla so this is perfect! definitely interested :)
Nice! Hah, I've recently re-watched all of ATLA..hence why this rp is made. XD

Ooo, if you're still accepting I'd be interested
Sweet! Thank you for your interest!
 
Hello hello, I am also interested! Out of curiousity, would the history of the Red Lotus pre-LOK, under Xai Bau, have changed in any manner for this?

Well...god damn, I made a complete mistake there! XD
Personally, I never finished LOK or got too far into LOK. Because of this, I was not fully aware that the Red Lotus was an actual group.

I personally preferred ATLA over LOK, and this roleplay is to take place a little while after ATLA but quite a bit before LOK in like timeline and technology.

The Red Lotus was meant to be the Rebellion group of this roleplay, but to avoid confusion to the actual source material of being canon. I have changed the Red Lotus name of the Rebellion group...now to 'The Blooming Lotus'.

Apologies for that!

EDIT:
I actually re-read through the interest check and noticed that I did not put Red Lotus anywhere. So I thought I had made that mistake...so just to clear things up..as stated earlier in this post. The roleplay will be played between the time spans of ATLA and LOK..there will be no canon characters in the roleplay, only Iroh is in the roleplay and that is per request only. Even with him around, he acts the same and such...but he is a nearly entirely different one compared to that of the show...meaning Zuko and such do not exist fully in this world whatseover.

interested :)

Certainly fair. I do feel it's worth mentioning thet Xai Bau formed the Red Lotus directly after the conclusion of the Hundred Years War, while Aang was still the Avatar. It's pretty interesting stuff., imo.

No worries! I totally understand, however, I did edit my previous post to your thought of the Red Lotus and Xai Bau being a canon character and all that. I will repost it here regarding this:

With the decision of not pulling Zuko into this, this means Aang was also not mentioned or around for this. This roleplay pretty much runs a completely original idea. The previous Avatar was an air nomad and all that, and all the actions that happened in ATLA did happen in this roleplay. Except, they were not with the actual canon characters from the show...the decision to do this was to avoid confusion throughout the rest of the roleplay as to how some characters would be alive and others are not...and to avoid having to be playing any canon characters.

As stated in the Faq, there will be no canon characters playable whatsoever as they do not exist.
 
For all of those that were waiting.
The character sheet thread is now up and running. Link is here --> [--x--]

Or it is also at the top of this page for the links.
 
Anyway, for those future interested. The link to the OOC thread and the Character Sheets thread is on the first post!
 
Any chance you've got room for one more? If not, that's totally cool as well. Just...uh let me know either way I guess.
