>Information

This quest takes place long before the events of The Last Airbender. Long before Aang, Roku, Kyoshi, Kuruk, or Yangchen. You play as a young Earthbender from a small village in one of the many Kingdoms scattered across the main continent. As a powerful villain strives to dominate the world, you will be forced to make choices that can stop it, aid it, or have no effect whatsoever.

>Rules

After each update I make, there will be a voting period of ten minutes. Once ten minutes have passed, whatever option has the most support will be the winner.

Write-ins are accepted, but only when specified If you see a write-in option, suggest whatever you like. If not, choose from the options I have provided.

Sometimes, rolls will be required. I will assign them, and they will operate under a d100 system. You will have three chances, and if one of the rolls succeeds, you pass. There are no crits, but I do take into account how much you succeed or fail by.

I reserve the right to veto certain write-ins, but will try to avoid doing so.

I hope you all have fun

What are the chances of us stumbling onto a new kind/rare type of bending?

Mauya's departure effectively leaves you alone to watch over Lantana until she wakes up.

You're far from alone, as many villagers stop to stare at the unconscious girl, whispering about the amazing things she did with her bending. Like Mauya, a few even stop to get confirmation that Lantana is, in fact, the Avatar. You're as polite as you can be, generally giving short, direct answers to their questions and getting them to leave as quickly as possible. Finally being left mostly alone, you think a bit on what Mauya had said.

"It looks like she's been keeping secrets from you."

Lantana did claim that she only knew how to Earthbend, yet she used Waterbending against that monster, and it looked as if she used Airbending as well. She couldn't have just learned to use that kind of bending out of nowhere, could she?

A groan pulls you from your thoughts, and you look down to see Lantana's eyes fluttering open. With a gasp, she bolts upright, looking around frantically. When she sees you standing over her, she calms down, but looks extremely confused.

"Sei?" she asks in a befuddled tone. "What happened?"

>A. She doesn't remember?

>B. She beat up the monster with Waterbending

>C. (Lie) You saved her from the monster

>D. You don't really know

>E. Something else

I'm not going to say no to all of those, you could theoretically pull an Iroh and develop some tricks by watching other benders, but it will not be easy.

"But how? You said you only knew earthbending, and i've never seen you use anything else before."

>>603614
With metalbending, you aren't actually bending the metal itself, you're just bending the impurities in the metal. You don't need some special powers to do it, you just have to be a really good earthbender and get lots of practice.

"You don't remember?" you ask Lantana, suddenly feeling just as confused as her.

She shakes her head. "No...I remember falling into the water, and then that thing coming at us, and then I woke up here."

Picking herself up, she gives you a curious look. "Did you beat the monster?"

Now, you're even more confused.

Nevertheless, you explain to her that she was the one who defeated the monster by using a mix of Earthbending and Waterbending. Lantana listens to your story, but you can tell she's having some serious trouble believing it, and unless she's a magnificent actress, her reaction tells you that Mauya was wrong about her keeping secrets from you.

"But, I don't know how to Waterbend," she reminds you. "And I've never done anything like that with Earthbending. How is that possible?"

You watch as she tries to come up with some sort of explanation, but it quickly becomes apparent that she isn't having any luck. In the end, she simply shrugs it off.

"Well, we're alive," she tells you optimistically. "I guess it doesn't really matter how it happened."

>A. You guess not

>B. You disagree, you'd really like to know how that happened

>C. Suggest changing clothes

>D. Suggest talking to Yun to get across the river

"Despite how widespread metalbending would become over the next 70 years, it is noted that only one out of a hundred earthbenders ever master the art, though metalbending master Suyin Beifong believes the only real limitation in learning the ability are the ones a person places on themselves. When Suyin first taught Korra metalbending, she got her to feel the fine pieces of earth inside a metal meteorite sculpture.[18]"

Lantana's trying to shrug this off as no big deal, but really only because she doesn't have any answers. You tell her that you'd like to know what's going on.

She sighs. "So would I, but I don't know how to figure it out. I mean, I think whatever happened happened because I'm the Avatar, so I don't really know who to ask about something like that."

That is a fair point. You doubt that you, or anybody else in the village would be able to tell her too much about what she did. The stories you've heard about the Avatar mentioned the ability to use all four elements, but Lantana says that she has to be taught to use the different kinds of bending. Maybe she's wrong, and she's known how to use all four all along, but you somehow doubt that's it. She seemed almost like another person at the end of that battle with the monster, and she claims not to be able to remember any of it.

"Sei?" she asks, drawing out out of your thoughts.

Lantana looks at you with a worried expression. "Are you okay?"

>A. Yeah, you're just thinking

>B. Tell her that if she needs to learn the other elements, there is a Waterbender in this village

>C. Suggest crossing the river now

"Yeah, I'm fine," you assure her. "I'm just thinking."

Lantana gives you a nod, and you decide to change the subject, telling her that, if she really needs to learn to use the other three elements, this village has a Waterbender.

Her face lights up with wonder, and the excitement in her voice sounds not unlike a child on their birthday. "Really? A Waterbender?"

"Yeah," you tell her. "Mauya."

"Mauya?" Lantana asks, sounding a bit surprised, but extremely excited. "Well, let's go find her, come on!"

She dashes past you, rushing through the village in search of the young Waterbender. You follow along as she makes her way from building to building, asking people if they've seen the other girl.

Eventually, you're directed to the river, where you see Mauya putting a fishing spear into a canoe.

"Mauya!" Lantana shouts, rushing toward the girl.

Mauya turns toward Lantana's voice, giving the other girl a confused look.

"Yeah?" she asks, curiosity in her voice.

"Is it true you're a Waterbender?" Lantana asks.

Mauya throws a look your way before nodding at your friend.

"Yeah," she answers.

Calming down a bit, Lantana asks if Mauya would be willing to teach her Waterbending.

Mauya fidgets a bit, looking somewhat uncomfortable. "Well, I'm not that great of a Waterbender. I only know the basic stuff."

"That's okay," Lantana assures her."I don't know any of it!"

"But, what about what you did to that monster?" Mauya counters.

"I don't really know how I did that," Lantana admits. "I don't even remember doing it."

>A. Tell Mauya she doesn't have to help

>B. Tell Mauya that Lantana has to start somewhere, and that even the basics could be useful

>C. Keep out of the conversation

>D. Something else

"Lantana has to start somewhere," you tell Mauya. "We won't force you or anything, but we'd be in your debt if you could even teach her the basics. It'd be really helpful if she could use Waterbending and still remember how she did it afterword."

Mauya looks less confused and nervous at the idea, more like she's mulling it over.

"Plus, you'd be the one who taught the Avatar to Waterbend," you add.

A large grin slowly appears on Mauya's face. Clearly, that suggestion pleases her quite a bit. Whether fame's a motivator to her or if there's something more to it than that, she seems to have been convinced to give it a go.

"Alright," she tells Lantana. "I'll teach you what I know. Like I said, though, it's not a whole lot."

Lantana is beaming once again. "Thank you so much."

Mauya can't resist smiling back. "Don't mention it."

While the girls begin their Waterbending Practice, you decide to go work on your Earthbending. You tell them that you'll see them in a bit, then go to find some place out of the way to do your training.

The question you consider as you find a spot is what kind of Earthbending you want to do. You could go over the moves you already know. Practicing them will allow you to use them more easily.

Then again, you could try and come up with a different technique. You aren't sure if you can make something up in the time you have, but it might be worth a try.

>A. Work on improving what you know (23)

>B. Stone Bullet: Hurl a tiny stone with the might you usually use on larger rocks, creating a surprising and painful attack (80)

>C. Stone Armor: Coat yourself in armor made of stone, making you more resistant to attacks (85)

>D. Stone fists: Coat your fists in stone, allowing you to use strong and painful melee attacks (74)

Note: pick only one

B-But if we leave the girls will bond without us

We can help with the training, provide targets and such with earthbending

There's really no way of knowing if you'll have enough time to actually teach yourself any new techniques, so you decide to simply practice what you know. What was it your dad used to say? "Don't fear the man who has practiced a thousand techniques once, fear the one who has practiced one technique a thousand times."

It's not quite a thousand times, but you do go through what you know multiple times, practicing everything from hurling rocks to making pits. How much time passes, you really aren't sure, but you figure sometime around an hour.

You work up a healthy sweat, and finally decide that you've done enough for now. It's been a long day already, and there's no telling what else waits for you. Calling it quits for the day, you make your way back to the spot where the two girls were practicing Waterbending.

Mauya and Lantana stand side by side, manipulating the water in front of them, pushing and pulling to create their own small tides. You somehow doubt that's all they've been doing for the past hour, and figure they must be ending their training with something simple.

"Alright, I think that's enough for today," Mauya says, turning to Lantana.

Your friend has a very disappointed tone when she next speaks. "Do we have to stop? This is great."

"Sorry, but I have work to do," Mauya tells her. "If you're still around tomorrow, we can practice some more."

"How did it go?" you ask, approaching the two girls.

"Not bad," Mauya answers. "Lantana's a fast learner."

Grinning at the compliment, Lantana tells Mauya that she was a good teacher, then proceeds to ask how your training went. You tell her that you just practiced the basics, but add that you think you've made some improvements.

"Good," she tells you with a smile. "Keep up the good work, okay? It's kind of nice having someone to watch my back."

"Likewise," you tell the Avatar.

Lantana smiles wider at this, and you decide to make a request of her. Your Earthbending has been improving, but she just seems to be at a different level altogether from where you are. With that in mind,you ask if she'd be willing to help you train in Earthbending.

Lantana seems taken aback. "You need my help? But you're already good at Earthbending. Remember how you killed Jungo?"

"You mean when he got lucky?" Mauya corrects. "Even he admits that."

"Well, if you really want some help, then sure, I can train with you," Lantana answers.

Speaking of training.

"Mauya, why don't you come with us?" you request of the Waterbender.

Now, it's her turn to be taken aback. "Me? Why?"

"To keep teaching Lantana Waterbending," you explain.

"So, you want me to just leave home and go Spirits-know-where with you?" Mauya asks. "And you know I'm not very good at Waterbending; I doubt I'd be much help."

>A. If she comes with the two of you, she could learn to be a better Waterbender (74)

>B. It'll be an adventure, much better than living here (80)

They're all good reasons.

"Haven't you ever wanted to see the world beyond your village? To know what's out there? And it's not like you'd be leaving forever, you could go home whenever you wanted to, if you really felt like it. It'd be a good chance to polish your own skills, and you'd be making a big difference in the world, changing it for the better. You don't have to answer right away, just think it over."

"It's a chance to go on an adventure with the Avatar and save the world," you tell the girl.

Mauya mulls it over for a moment. "Let me go talk to some of the others, I'll meet you back here soon. Don't go anywhere."

As Mauya walks away, Lantana looks over at you.

"So, is that why you're travelling with me?" she asks. "So you can say you helped the Avatar save the world?"

>A. Yes

>B. No, you want to stop that army

>C. Does it matter?

>D. You want to find out what happened to your dad, and keep your mother safe

"No," you answer. "I want to stop that army, find out what happened to my dad, and keep my mom safe. Besides, I don't know where the people from my village went, and it's nice to have someone around that laughs at my rock puns, even if they aren't marbelous."

Lantana laughs, and you can't help but smile. You've only known her for a day, but you get the feeling that the two of you have already become good friends.

When she stops laughing, she gives you a smile. "Thanks for being honest with me. So, why did you want to bring Mauya? She told us she can't teach me much more."

You answer that the two of you need all the help you can get, and that Mauya providing her with a little bit of training is better than no training at all.

"Good point," she agrees. "I just hope she knows what she's getting into. You and I both know this won't be easy; I hope she knows that, too."

"I'm ready to go!"

Looking over, you see Mauya approaching. A spear is clutched in her right hand, and a bag bulging with supplies hangs from her back. She seems to have packed all that she'll need.

"That was fast," Lantana comments, impressed.

"Not really," Mauya answers. "Anyway, are we leaving now?"

>A. Yeah, ask if she can get you across the river

>B. Yeah, head South and go through the Serpent's Pass

"Yeah," you answer. "Can you help us get across the river?"

"Sure," Mauya tells you, strolling past you and Lantana as she makes her way toward a canoe. "That thing swam off, so we should be fine."

She throws her things into the canoe, and the three of you climb aboard, setting out across the river. This time, no monsters attack you, and no fishermen get thrown from their canoes or bore you to death with long stories. It's a simple, peaceful trip, and when you reach the other side, the three of you grab your bags, staring out at the landscape ahead of you.

There's no forest, not really even any trees to speak of. All you see is an endless, grassy plain.

"Wow," Lantana gasps.

Mauya rolls her eyes. "Trust me, it's not that exciting."

"Have you been here before?" you ask Mauya.

"Sure, plenty of times," she answers. "When people from the village get tired of fish, we sometimes come hunting here. These plains stretch all the way to the next river in the East, and the mountains to the North."

"Wow, I've never seen anything like that," Lantana comments. "Most places I've been were covered in forest."

You nod in agreement, while Mauya shrugs. "Well, you'll get to see plenty of it. I haven't gone too far; like I said, these plains stretch on a long way."

The three of you start North, following the river toward the great mountains which house the Air Temple. Mauya may take the place for granted, but you find yourself greatly enjoying the sights as you make your way. Birds of many colors fly high above, an Ostrich Horse drinks from the river, ignoring the three of you as you approach.

Boar-q-pines growl and fight one another in the distance, and you spot a Catgator plunging into the river to find its dinner. Lantana seems enthralled by all of this, and even Mauya seems somewhat interested. As for yourself, you can't help but whistle.

The three of you are in for an adventure.

By the end of this quest i want us to be pushing around mountains, Also we might be able to invent magma bending as magma is just superheated Stone

>>609258
OP, pls nerf

>>609130
P-pls no bully
>>
>>609253
>>609258
Still not sure where you guys think all the magma is going to come from but if we get to do it just one time after am eruption or something I am all for it.
>>
>>609521
We shall see
>>
>>609521
Well we could try to create molten rock by stirring a sphere of rock around itself, the friction generating heat, If we do it with sand we should get molten glass.
>>
>>609687
Unless my physics classes have failed me I think it would take more pressure, speed, and friction then we could produce currently. Now I may be wrong since its been a little bit since then. We might be able to if we are able to produce enough heat but it could also backfire on us.

Now if we were somehow able to learn firebending, yes I know that we arnt the legendary one, we could do it safely to an extent.
>>
>>609687
>>609761
It's still possible to make an earthbending vibroblade/ thermal blade with that amount of molecule quickening.
>>
>>609761
That is the thing, it would take alot of effort but would be worth it,
>>
>>610156
>>609805
I have also noticed in alot of fights where we should be using lethal attacks we aren't Like the goat gorilla fight, If our aim is to kill we should show it, i doubt it would take much to make stone spears raise out of the ground. it would have helped while fishing too.
>>
>>610184
Instead of blundgeoning enemies to death, slash and stab. Or constrict.

Shouldn't be hard to bend, slice, knap or press our projectiles into more lethal instruments. We're not restrained like in an animated show for young demographics.
>>
>>610213
Exactly. When we fight it should be with the determination to kill,
>>
>>610184
Because we have zero combat earth bending experience, there is a huge difference between us a village boy being taught the basics by our father and somehow having the same abilities of a trained earth bending soldier.
The dice are going to be high since we never done things like that before.
>>
>>610354
The utilitary reasons for being able to produce an edge or a spike on command are innumerable.
>>
>>610238
>>610606
The quest hasn't even been running for a week, m8. The rolls to pull that stuff off are too high to risk in critical moments. I'm sure it'll get easier to pull off moves like spikes once we gain more experience.

Oh, I'm talking about before the quest, as a young earthbender in a self-sufficient village. Day-to-day chores need specific tools, and what better tool than one you don't have to bring along all the time? An edge to fell trees and cut firewood, a spike to affix rope/ nail wood structures, prickly soil for practical pranks towards the drunks.

With only two teenagers in a village, there's much time to learn about oneself and train.

Isn't the next step in the cycle Fire?

Air

Earth

Water
Earth + Fire
Air

We should be headed for a firebender next.

Yeah but she wanted to learn airbending. Hell with the rules. Maybe she can learn to fly and drop rocks on people

Look at him. Sei Fon is now the Captain.
