Description

So like many of the ideas I have, this one came from a random thought. "The next season should be set in modern times and the new Avatar should be twins. And what if bending was rare? Or illegal?" So I let the idea go and recently decided to pick it back up. So here it is.

Air…Water…Earth…Fire
It has been nearly 200 years since the last Avatar, Korra died and the last known Avatar the world has known. Towards the end of her life, laws were enacted to limit bending and over the years bending, now called Kinesis, has been outlawed and deemed illegal. Benders themselves have grown scarce and rare. With the world on the verge of ruin, the new Avatar, a pyrokinetic named Alaric must step up to the plate but before he can restore balance to the world, he must first restore balance in himself.

The new season is set in a world both foreign and familiar. Republic City is now the capital of the world and has grown quite large. In the 200 years the Avatar has been gone, the nations have all become completely intermingled to the point no one can claim allegiance to any one nation. Originally, I wanted a lot more than 200 years to have passed but any more and the setting wouldn’t make sense. Most of the show looks a lot like modern day but more advanced (seeing as the current season is behind in fashion but uses technology even we don’t have). I decided to change Bending to Kinesis because Kinesis sounds more futuristic and logically if you think about words that were used 200 years ago in our time, most people don't use them anymore. If you couldn't tell from my Sailor Moon redesign, I love futuristic worlds. The cast is now older and the show would take a darker, more mature turn. I also wanted the cast to be more racially diverse from the usual Asian culture the show is based on. (I’m aware it takes longer than 200 years to racially diversify an entire planet but I’m God to them and I say racial diversity!)

(From L to R): Sylvara, Caspar, Alaric, Kacela, ZhuLi S57821, Balthazar, and Jago

* I know the wheel of Kacela’s Satocycle is incomplete but I couldn’t get the 2 photos to match perfectly. I also never meant for Jago to be as skinny as he is because now his head seems really big and gives him a lollipop quality. Oh well.
