Hi all, here with a retry of a legend of Korra pitch, what can i say i love the world and i am glutton for punishment. Also i really need an last airbender itch. At least two decades since the events of the last season of Legends of Korra and the world once for fell from balance. This time not from a single place, each nation falling into its own chaos:
That is the current situation, new avatar, new team and a shit load of trouble for them to deal with. The world is currently im the avatar equivalents to the 1940s. Zepplins are becoming obsolete replaced by biplane and fixed wing aircraft, walkers are more akin to tanks of the era and so on. like this story to be a darker more cynical than normal, no single battle with a tyrant to sort out this mess if it can be sorted. We will varied cast of characters with representatives of all nations, benders and non benders but i would like to at least have one character of each nation who can help solve the issues but not always in the best fashion. E.g a character i will possibly play is the adopted child of korra and Asami, this parentage means he has a dubious claim to the chiefdom of both water tribes. This could be useful if he was forced to power by the avatar.

- In the young United Earth Democratic States, was still reeling from the damage caused by the was with Kouvira meaning poverty is still a widespread issue. The new elected officials that ran the new Earth States have been a accused of corruption and powermongering in political spectrum than helping the populace. As a result strikes and revolts are common place stretching the resources of the already thin governance. To make matters worse three factions have risen within the states: nobles who once profited out the royalty lost their rights and privileges, monarchist who believed the new democratic government to corrupt and inefficient and a return to the Earth kingdom. Finally the Traditionalist who fear the lost of old Earth kingdom traditions due to the rise of technology. One of the leaders of the traditionalist, Manik, a general of some renown, united the three factions to the Triumvirate against the divided government calling for change which led to a civil war. With the Triumvirate passed in Omashu and the Government based in Bi sing Se.
- The discover of the an island in the south western edge of the world by a Fire Nation ship caused a stir between them and the Southern Water Tribe over ownership of the island. The island was rich in mineral wealth but also show ruins of a water tribe lost during the time of the hundred years war. The United republic and the Air nomads tried to mediate and divide the island between the two but misunderstanding and boarder skirmishes between the two nations igniting into fall war over the island.
- In the Northern Water Tribe faced its own cold civil war as the twin rule of Desna and Eska ended with both passing mere months from each other childless. The only known claimants, Tonraq and Avatar Korra herself, both unable to take the throne with the former embroiled in his own war and the latter's disappearance trying to maintain order in the warring nations. Various people claimed the chiefdom and a council of elders were gathered to decide the next leader but the various claimants vying for favour of the elders mean no decision could be made any time soon. The claimants are therefore preparing for war.
- Avatar Korra tried to bring peace with the help of the United Republic and the Air nomads but faces little success especially with so many conflicts cropping up everywhere. She and a few prominent members of team avatar and air nomads eventually disappeared during the travel between the areas of conflict her fate unknown until a new avatar was found years later. It is believed that a claimant for the Northern Water tribe chiefdom was responsible. In any case with Korra gone and the new avatar too young to be of any effect, it was believed chaos was inevitable. However a new leader came to power among the Air nomad after Tenzin known as Tashi. She took a more aggressive methods, against air nomads teachings, of bringing peace to the land taking control of the United Republic and its armies and attacking each warring nation. She bested each nation and made them tributary states of the New Air Protectorate keeping the peace among the various nations by harsh means when necessary. Tashi was she considered a tyrant but no one denied her methods kept the peace. She claimed she would give up this power when the new avatar became fully realised but few believed she will give up the new power she holds.
That is the current situation, new avatar, new team and a shit load of trouble for them to deal with. The world is currently im the avatar equivalents to the 1940s.
