>Welcome to Avatar Quest. Here are the rules.

Decisions are made by vote. Each vote has a ten minute interval, after which, the option that receives the most votes it the one that is chosen.

There are no write-ins unless explicitly stated

Some options require rolls. In that event, rolls will be out of 100. Whether rolls succeed or fail is decided by the first three rolls. If one passes, then you succeed regardless of the other two. Rolls will really only occur during training, or when trying something new.
All decisions are final. If you regret voting for something, too bad. Think carefully before you make decisions.

Try to keep waifu bullshit to a minimum.

You decide to get your day started, and get up.

When you're greeted by the sight of your family and friends fighting for their lives against bandits, you know it's going to be an interesting day....

Your mother, Sonyo, Sena, and Ren are all trapped in nets. The others are busy facing off against a dozen bandits.

Bulo is using his Earthbending against a group of three men wielding swords. He is having little success against them, as his limited abilities are less effective with sand. However, he manages to knock one of his foes onto his back with a sand blast, but the other two are quickly closing in.

Felna and Galda fight side by side, each unarmed but still extremely dangerous. As you watch, Felna sweeps a bandit's legs out from under him, and Galda stomps on his throat when he hits the ground, crushing his windpipe. Their other two opponents back away slowly, looking fearful.

Lee skillfully evades the strikes of his foes, catching one man's arm and quickly breaking it before falling back into his evasive pattern.

Away from the others stands a man with a bald head and a dark mustache, observing the fight with a frown.

You figure that the bald man is the leader, and decide that the wisest course of action would be to take him out.

He sees you as you run towards him, and sends a blast of sand in your direction. You leap out of the way and counter with a sand blast of your own, which he dodges in a similar manner. Before he has the chance to counter, you fire a blast of fire at him.

His eyes widen in shock, and he barely manages to avoid the attack, leaping out of the way and landing on his side. He punches the ground, creating a wall between the two of you.

Glancing around, you see that Felna has been caught under a net, while Galda continues to fiercely battle with two opponents. Bulo has been captures as well, and Lee is desperately trying to evade the strikes of his foes.

Things are looking bad. With only three of you still fighting, the battle is looking impossible to win. With that in mind, you rush to free the others from their nets.

Turning your attention away from your foe proves to be a huge mistake.

As you make your way to the nearest netted person, Felna, you give Galda a little help by knocking one of her foes away with a sand blast. Galda continues fighting standing between the enemies and you as you move to free Felna. Before you can do much of anything, however, a large sandblast knocks both you and Galda to the ground. Before you can get up, a net is thrown on top of the two of you. It quickly tightens, squeezing you and Galda together and immobilizing you to the point where you can't Earthbend.

The bald man approaches, chuckling darkly.

"Well, we hit the jackpot today," he comments. "Some pretty women, some strong benders, and the Avatar."

He kneels in front of you. "Ming is going to be VERY happy with us. Of course, he'll be most happy if we don't have to kill any of you. I don't want to disappoint him, but if any of you cause trouble, you are going to die. And Avatar, you're too valuable a prize to kill. But, if you cause any trouble, I'll kill one of your friends, starting with the girl you were trying to free."

>D. "You've got a family of lordlings and relatives of the queen herself, along with the Avatar. Maybe you can barter with the queen for a rather nice ransom, but chances are more likely you'll all be crushed under sixty feet of solid rock. If we all suddenly disappear from this region, the queen will send an army to find you, and she will find you, and you'll all be hung before the month is out. And if you just let us go and walk away, we won't say a word.

Really, it's in your best interests to leave us be. We have little valuables with us, and we intend to set up a city. In exchange for our lives...I'm sure an understanding could be reached concerning your activities and trade routes to the capital. Things I won't talk about at sword-point."

For the record, my plan is to play hardball, and then when they get all mean, "Friends, friends, we can't expect negotiations with all of us angry like this. These are large matters, and negotiations may take a few days...instead of getting violent, lets take a night to mull over what was said, and take a fresh, calmer look in the morning." The idea is to delay until A) Their guard is let down, or B) until Daddy comes home.

Other ideas involve going to their camp as a hostage for negotiations, leaving everyone else here (to attack from without, we can also take Galda or Lee for protection), or launching them all into the lake at the first oppurtunity.

>>33523265

Yeah, I was expecting there to be at least a roll to avoid capture or counterattack or something.

That seems like the type of dialogue that Som would punish us for and rightfully so.

We have literally no leverage here, threatening victorious bandits is the dumbest thing we can do.

>>33523265
You didn't think turning your back on a person we just engaged in combat would be a bad idea to help our allies who were faltering due to us not helping them in the beginning?

>>33523366

Every other option than B would be better than the write-in.

>>33523347
>>33523315
On one hand this could get us a stay of execution in order to try & get shitloads of money, however we risk the queen giving zero fucks & getting killed anyway on the other they may enslave/rape/murder us anyway because they are brigands and give zero shits.

>>33523382
We A) Make it seem like killing or ransoming us is the worst thing we could do...then B) Offer up a large, LARGE amount of future profits, which we will negotiate over as a delay tactic.

>>33523315
No.
Just no.

If a person already has you captured, improving your value only gives them a reason to keep you captured.

If a person has gone so far as to attempt to harm, or even kill, there can hardly be reasoning with them, as that is likely their purpose.

Also, the queen would have no reason to suspect any foul play, let alone that this one shit was responsible.

>>33522970

"Who's Ming?" you ask.

The bald man throws back his head and laughs. "Who's Ming? Do you really not know? Ming the Bandit King, the mightiest criminal in the Northern Kingdom!"

Now you remember; you've heard stories of Ming. He rules over many bandits with whom he terrorizes the kingdom; robbing, kidnapping, murdering, and so on. Some say that even the Queen fears him.

"Well, he knows who you are," the bald man tells you. "That is to say, he knows who the Avatar is. He's going to be very glad to meet you."

Suddenly, he scowls. "Will you idiots stop messing around and catch that brat?"

Moving your head, you can see that Lee is still fighting, though clearly losing.

"We don't have time for this," the bald man grumbles, leaving you and going to help the other bandits defeat Lee.

"If they take us to Ming, we're pretty much done for," Galda tells you. "We'll be killed, sold as slaves, or forced to join him."

"AHHH!" you hear from the Bald man, drawing your attention away from Galda.

You see him fall to the ground, smoke rising from his back. Felna steps over him and regards the other bandits, who have knocked Lee to the ground and are preparing to net him.

Three of the bandits rush towards Felna, while the others finish netting Lee. As they approach, Felna takes a deep breath. Once they get a bit closer, she breaths out with what sounds like a roar as flames come pouring from her mouth, engulfing the bandits, who fall to the ground, screaming in agony.

The other nine bandits back away slowly, but Felna doesn't let them get far before she begins firing a barrage of small fire blasts at them, scorching the flesh of many while the others flee. One drops his sword close to Lee, who manages to grab it and cut himself free with it. He stands and prepares to fight any of the bandits who weren't smart enough to run.

Felna takes a deep breath, this time to calm herself, and turns towards you, smirking.

"I told you I ha-

Delaying for what?

>>33523469

-d a few more tricks," she says, setting to freeing you and Galda, who stares at her with a stunned expression.

Once the two of you are free, you get to your feet. Galda starts to speak, but Felna interrupts her.

"I'll explain everything later," she tells her sister. "For now, we need to free the others and decide what to do next."

Before anybody can respond, an arrow strikes the ground in front of your feet. Looking in the direction it came from, you see an archer in a nearby tree, already pulling back another arrow and aiming at Felna's head.

You quickly create a high wall of sand in front of Felna, yourself, and Galda.

This sudden obstacle causes the archer to hesitate, and gives Felna the chance to duck. When the arrow is fired, it flies harmlessly over her head and into the lake. The archer has no way of knowing whether or not he hit Felna, but it's likely that he'll turn his shots on the others, who are still visible to him.

Taking a little peak around the wall, you see the archer taking aim at Lee, who strolls slowly towards the tree, a look of quiet fury on his face. The archer fires, but Lee has already begun leaning to the side, and catches the arrow by its shaft. He stares up at the stunned archer and breaks the arrow in two.

The archer desperately knocks another arrow.

Let's examine this post for a moment, shall we?

All this wall of sand did was 'give Felna a chance to duck'. This shows that the wall - on its own - would not have been enough (in Som's estimation) to save our friend.

However, I suspect he didn't feel able to kill her at this point because he's determined not to show how his detractors are right about his ridiculous habit of antagonism toward his players. So she 'ducked'.

Nah. Water is about redirecting force. Lee's been avoiding it entirely. We haven't seen him do any throws or counters, just dodging attacks until he gets close enough to retaliate. That plus his utter calm suggests airbending to me rather than water.

You take a deep breath and bring your hands in, lowering them in front of you.

The archer fires another shot, which Lee dodges, getting closer to the tree.

As the archer prepares another shot, you thrust your fists towards him, unleashing a torrent of flame that strikes him directly, causing him to scream in pain and shock as the fire engulfs his body and he falls from the tree, the now burning branch falling on top of him.

Lee looks in your direction and gives you a nod of thanks before moving over to the fallen archer.

"Nice shot," Felna compliments.

Oh, that. I've heard of that. What does it have to do with this conversation? I'd rather know ahead of time before I start looking through the wiki for it.

>>33524249

Surely, it would be wiser to try to free the others and get our combat strength up instead of seeing whether this guy survived being engulfed by fire?

>>33524285
Lee will beat the shit out of him if he tries something.

>>33524280
You can summon the water spirit and go into a tranquil state allowing you to avoid ALL attacks

>>33524285
Lee (and Felna if my suggestion goes through) are taking care of the Archer, I think we're good

>>33524223
>B. Free the others

>>33524285

This is this and that is that. There's two action options since dialogue is not an action.

Why exactly would we go to the archer?

>>33524295
Wiser yes but curiosity has damned me to taking the latter option.

>>33524280
What you described in the post before you were told to play the game was basically what using the element of water was all about.

Air did the same thing, but used speed as the means rather than tapping into tranquility.

>>33524308
>>33524334
Ah. I see. Well, water in Avatar certainly isn't about calm. If anything it's the angriest of the elements. We have yet to meet a waterbender who didn't have some sort of anger issue.

>>33524325
also I may add >>33524285 has a tiny bit of merit to it, a tiny bit not a lot.

>>33524364
Water in Avatar is about change, though.
And you can do two things with regard to change. You can try to fight it: anger; or you can yield to it: calm.

Avatar is all about Chinese mythology. Yin and Yang only make sense.

"Thanks," you tell her. "Now, go help Lee, I'll free the others."

She nods and runs towards her brother and the fallen archer. Galda, on the other hand, stays behind, and helps you release the others from their nets.

"So...since when can Felna Firebend?" Sonyo asks.

"That's what I want to know," Galda tells him.

"We can discuss that later," Ren tells the pair. "First, we need to make sure we aren't going to be attacked again."

"Several of the bandits escaped," your mother points out. "In all likelihood, they'll get help and come back."

"True, but we should make sure we don't have to worry about an immediate attack before we decide what to do next," Ren says

"If that archer survived, he might be able to tell us some things," Sena suggests.

"Well, he didn't survive," Lee says ad he and Felna approach. "Between the fall and the fire, he died."

Galda sighs. "That figures."

"Then we must act under the assumption that this spot could be attacked at any time," Ren says. "We should pick up camp and leave."

>A. And go where?

>B. No, you should stay and fight

>C. You should bring the fight to Ming

>D. Dialogue writein

>E. Say nothing

>>33524445
Oh, I know, I was mostly making a joke. Water in Avatar is about change, and that's why it's not very good at avoiding attacks. It's much better at accepting the energy of the attack and redirecting it to transform defense into offense. You want to dodge attacks you go air, block attacks you go earth, redirect attacks you go water and preventing your enemy from getting a chance to attack is fire.

Alright guys, I'm not going to vote yet, but my current idea is that we stay, have the Earthbenders fortify the area, and fight

what do you think?

Everytime I see these threads, I get sad because Humble is gone and will never return.

Then I get angry because I remember all that's left is Somnius.

"What about my father? He's expecting us to be here when he returns. Should we send someone to catch up with him? It's only been a day, we can probably reach him if someone leaves now."

>>33524583
I like the idea. I expect we could build a veritable fortress in a day or so.

>>33524502
I'm not sure as to our course of action but the bandits likely know the area better than we do.

>>33524597
Actually, he will be back

>>33524502
>B. No, you should stay and fight
>D. Dialogue writein "We'll need to be better prepared, we should raise some earthwalls around the area and fortify ourselves"

>>33524615
I'm not sold on it. The bandits have earthbenders, too. Probably not many, but an earthen structure is potentially vulnerable. So is a wooden one, if they have firebenders. Though we have been joking that this place is the future site of Ba Sing Se, so if we could build a fortress and defend it we'd go a long way towards establishing it as the Impenetrable City.

>>33524583
>>33524615

We'll be heavily outnumbered. Our opponent is Ming the Bandit King.

>He rules over many bandits with whom he terrorizes the kingdom; robbing, kidnapping, murdering, and so on. Some say that even the Queen fears him.

He can easily overwhelm us in numbers and he knows we are an incredibly value target since he knows we are an Avatar.

Well, running will just get us ambushed or something and going directly to him is a complete dumbass move. Hell, if we get a lucky waterbend roll or something we can flood them while we're safe in our fort

>>33524502
>A.

If we don't like it...

>B

We cab bend the water nearby, we can solidify hard-to-bend sand into damned hard walls, and we have turtlesharkbro

>>33524824
We can barely waterbend, and we haven't yet learned how to fuse dirt or sand into stone. We have a ways to go before we can make a fortification that easily.

"And go where?" you ask.

"Back the way we came from," Ren tells you. "Towards the capital."

"They probably know the woods better than us," your mom tells him. "We wouldn't make it."

"And besides, my dad and the Earth Queen are expecting us here," you point out. "We could probably have someone reach him to warn him if we move fast."

Your mother shakes her head. "Going off alone right now would be suicide."

"Then let's stay and fight," you suggest.

"Yes! Let's kick some bandit butt!" Sonyo agrees gleefully.

"We barely managed to beat the last group," Ren points out.

"They attacked when most of us were asleep," Galda reminds him. "This time, they won't have that advantage."

"We'll need to be better prepared," you say. "We should raise some Earth walls around the area and fortify ourselves."

"Well, some of the bandits we took down had weapons we can use," Felna says.

"And some of the others dropped their weapons and fled," Lee adds.

Galda grins. "I'm gonna go see if I can find a pair of daggers."

She runs off to inspect the corpses, and both Ren and Sena go off to arm themselves as well. Your family gather around you.

"If we're going to fortify this place, we should do it fast," your mother tells you.

>A. Use your bending to fortify the base

>C. Dialogue writein

>>33524862
>>A. Use your bending to fortify the base

Let smart people think of a strategy. We have plenty of combat veterans, they should assume the command.

We are a strong bender, we need to fortify the base.

>A. Use your bending to fortify the base
We can have the adults plan things out

>>33524862

We are the Avatar after all. Maybe we can get lake guardian's help too

>>A. Use your bending to fortify the base

Sand+Water+Fire=quasi cement.

>>33524862
>>A. Use your bending to fortify the base
Not sure why that was even a question.
People have been clamoring to build with bending for several threads.

>>33524884
>We have plenty of combat veterans, they should assume the command.
Only our mother, that I know of.

>>33524862
>A. Use your bending to fortify the base

>>33524862
>A. Use your bending to fortify the base
A central fortress surrounded by staggered walls and trenches. The idea should be to make it slow going to get close enough to the walls to attack them. And see if we could make punji traps with earthbending. It should be within our capabilities.

We need to get Lee to train us at somepoint, I like the cut of his jib

>>33524962
And it turns out all of their children know some type of bending and that Galda's just repressed hers.

Can we also use our Lake pal to help us out?

She is right, time is of the essence. The attack could come within the hour for all you know. You set to work immediately.

Your mother, being a war veteran, is able to give you some direction. She tells Felna and Ren to run off and gather all of the large sticks and branches they can find, Galda to use her daggers to sharpen them all. She then instructs you to build large walls around the beach, which will at the very least keep any archers from getting a clear shot.

"If Mind gets word that you're the Avatar, he will certainly want to capture you, rather than kill you," she explains. "He won't just order his archers to fire blindly into the base; too much risk of you getting hit and killed."

You create a high wall of sand in front of the trees, and a high wall of sand on each end of the beach. You don't bother putting up a wall right at the lake. They most likely won't bother coming that way, and leaving it open gives you water to bend.

"Sand walls won't hold them well, but if there's an entrance, even a small one, their first instinct will be to go for that rather than to attack the walls," she tells you.

Taking her advise, you carve a small doorway out of the wall in front of the area that the bandits retreated in.

Galda, in the meantime, sets to sharpening everything that is brought to her, soon having a large pile of sharp sticks.

"Now, we want to make it as hard as possible for them to reach us," your mother tells you. "The less we have to actually fight, the better. Make some deep trenches around the base."

You do so, creating deep trenches all around the base, except in the lake, of course.

She then gets Galda, and the two of them soon come over with the sharp sticks.

"Rise the Earth at the bottom of the trenches," your mother instructs.

You do so, and both she and Galda begin planting the sharpened sticks in it before you lower it back do-

-wn, having successfully created spiked trenches around your base.

"In all likelihood, at least a few of them will make it through, so we'll create another pit right in the entrance," your mom tells you.

The two of you quickly create a small spiked pit.

"I'd say we're as prepared as we're going to be," your mother tells you. "Now we just wait for them to come."

>>33525321
>. Go talk to Felna

>>33525443
We don't know he's dead, don't say that yet. Unless we see a body, I'd say we give him at least three weeks before we make any assumptions. A week to get back, a week to talk with officials, a week to return. It would probably take shorter to get back, actually, since he's not being slowed down by bringing less seasoned travellers with him. But he'll have an even larger group when he returns, so I'm giving him the extra time.

this sounds like the beginning of Ba sing Se

The kind who knows that loved ones die right after you tell them you love them before the big battle.

Not wanting to stand around and do nothing, you decide to speak with Felna, who is standing on the far side of the base, going through the motions of Firebending without actually creating fire, just going through the techniques.

She stops when she sees you, giving you her full attention. You can see that she's afraid, but that she's as prepared as anyone else to see this thing through.

"Hey, Shin," she greets. "Do you need something?"

"I wanted to say that I'm sorry about earlier," you tell her. "I screwed up and made you reveal your secret."

She sighs. "I couldn't keep it a secret forever."

"Thank you for saving me," she tells you.

She smiles. "You're welcome. I'm happy to play the hero every now and again."

"So, I was wondering if you could teach me to breathe fire," you tell her.

She chuckles. "One final lesson before the big battle? Alright. Like I told you before, Firebending comes from the breath. You need to take a deep breath, and where you would normally let the fire it fuels within you escape through your hands, you instead unleash it through your mouth. In my experience, adding a roar helps."

You do exactly as she instructs, taking a deep breath. You focus the fire within you towards your mouth, rather than your hands. It builds in your chest, growing stronger and stronger until you release it with a roar, letting a torrent of flames shoot from your mouth and into the air.

Felna grins from ear to ear. "That was amazing! You got it on your first try! You're a natural at Firebending, you know that?"

You next walk over to Galda, who is practicing with the daggers she recovered from the bandit corpses earlier. She doesn't stop until it becomes perfectly clear that you have something you want to say to her.
