RPG
Introduction
As the peace and complacency in the world began to become more and more prominent, energy bending became less abundant. The world needed balance and the lack of flow of energy caused a chaos between this world and the spirit world. This ended in the transformation of a soul that did not bend energy but the sacred elements. Fire, air, water, and earth were manipulated at will by this individual. The girl traveled seeking answers and understanding of why she was chosen for this curse. Soon she became an outcast looked down upon and misunderstood by the rest of the world. Frustration sets in over the years and the now beautiful young lady realizes that she is not the monster the world sees her to be, and if they would not understand, she would make them. Wreaking havoc around the world upon village after village, the first avatar seeks the power and throne that she now "deserves"...

OOC Notes
I sit alone, contemplating the answers I seek. I know myself to be a demon, a tool of destruction. I can engulf anything I desire with flames. I never meant to have this curse placed upon me. Perhaps the evil deeds from my past life is what I'm atoning for by bringing this ability into the world. This leaf I hold so full of luscious life, and now, it burns.
The leaf suddenly turns to ashes from a flame starting at my fingertips.
I must admit. It is nice to have a fire here in the rain though
...Rain...
It still echoes in my mind. The day I found my parents ashes in our home. From then on I was no longer known as Takashi, but just Rain, like the tears that fell from my face for the seven days I mourned the loss of it all, my family, my happiness, my world...
I look into the fire, the wood crackles under the flames. The heat is getting low due to the rain. I hold my hands out and raise the fire back up again.
The night calls to me, and so does sleep. I lean my head against the tree that I'm sitting under and sleep until I hear the passing of a merchant cart the next morning. I rise and make a path towards the road. I think to myself,
That cart was either coming from or going to another town. Whichever way I decide, will determine what happens to me this day. Well if I follow him I know there will be food and supplies wherever he stops.
I turn to my right and walk down the road, thinking about my past and how I feared the terrible being I had become. Whatever this was, no one could had ever prepared me for the unholy powers I wielded. I clinch the hilt of my blade tightly as I walk, giving no concern to the sunrise over fields and a shanty little town. People here seemed to have a simple life, and simple minds. I stood at the gate of the town. The merchant cart had stopped, so I prepared the walk to find food. I has been a while since my flask had been refilled anyway.

As the dawn rose i opened my eyes and felt the warmth of the sun shining down apon me. The only sound i could hear was the stream infront of me, i had always stayed close to water it was one of the only places left i felt safe. I knelt down beside the river and cupped a handful of water, as i drank the water i felt refreshed and ready to move onwards. I looked through a small satchel i carryed around with me to find a small amount of food, barely enough to call a meal, i know i would have to visit a village soon to resupply. I gathered my belongings and threw my coat over my shoulders, i made my way down river and stayed off the roads.
Another day masquerading as a normal person in a curropt world, easier said than done in a time like this.
As i walked down the rivers edge i waved my hand at the water, as i did the waves in the water began to form and make patterns matching the movements of my hand. After a while i moved my hand back to my side as a village was now in sight. I crept my way through the treeline scanning the village, i felt skeptical about entering this place but the smell of fresh bread and meat filled the air. I moved out of the treeline and through the gates, i followed the smell towards the Inn.

I moved through the crowds to reach the merchant who was speaking hastily. I could smell the different aromas flowing out from his cart and noticed one familiar scent.
Mmm, sweet bread, like the monks used to let me have every once in a while and on special occasions growing up.
"Yea yea yea, what do ya want?"
"I would like two pieces of sweet bread please."
"That'll be six copper pieces."
I laid the money on the cart as he handed two pieces to me. He was so concerned with other customers, he didn't even look at me as I grabbed the pieces and took a bite from one.
Just as I remember them.
I look along the street and notice an inn.
Finally, a place to refill my flask with a bit of Baijiu.
Moving into the inn's doors, I open them softly and quietly. Turn my head to glare under my straw hat enough to see the bar and walk over. The barkeep was a young lady who had been working there since the night before it appeared.
"What'll ya have brotha?"
"Baijiu... please..."
I lay ten copper pieces on the bar and look down as to not draw any attention to my face or my presence in the bar. I would be leaving this town soon. Where to? I did not know. For how long? I could not tell. But I was after something I knew nothing about. I had a draw upon me as if fate herself were guiding, demanding, or commanding that I follow her will. This I obliged because the ignorance to destiny before, had led me to where I was now.

I stood infront of the Inn savouring the smell comming from the cart, i peered over the crowd to see what was avilable.
Sweet bread, its been too long since i've tasted real food.
I checked my satchel searching for any coins but with avail, i turned away from the cart and into the Inn and to the bar. The barmaid turned to me and spoke.
"What can i get ya?"
"Just water please."
She grabbed a small cup and filled it with water placing it on the bar infront of me.
"Thank you."
I took the cup and moved to a small table on my own, I sat with the cup in my hand swirling the water around thinking.
I need some coins if i am to eat, maybe there are some bountys out i wonder.
I took a sip from my cup and contiued to think of ways to obtain come coins. With not trade skills to speak of and my 'unique' ability being feared all i really had was combat abilitys. I continued to drink from my cup and scan the Inn, not looking for trouble but keeping my wits about me. Everyone looked like the usual kind you would find in a place like this, except one a monk looking person standing at the bar. Last time i checked monks are not the kind of people that drink Baijiu, suspicious....

I took out some of the sweet bread and began to eat as the barmaid helped another customer.
"Just water please." I heard him ask.
Who just drinks water at a bar, I thought. But I quickly shrugged it away. By the time I had received my flask I was full from the bread.
I must have bitten off more than I could chew today. Maybe the smell tricked me into thinking I was hungrier than I actually was.
I turned around and saw the only table that had an empty seat and sat opposite another man who seemed to be trying to stay out of the way.
That's my type.
I sat, pulled out the other piece of sweet bread with the intent to eat, but I wasn't sure of my capacity yet.
"I hope you don't mind if I sit here with you; I really don't like to drink alone, but who does? Care for a piece of bread? It's really good."
I was just attempting to make small talk since I really had nothing else to do with the time that I was preparing to get just a little buzz in front of the total stranger.

I raised my head as the monk sat at the table and spoke to me offer some of his food. A heistant smile lifted the corner of my lips as i spoke.
"I dont see why not, i could use some company as it is."
He seems friendly enough but somthing about him still seemed strange, not hostile but like he was out of place here. Much like myself i suppose.
"Thank you, nice to see some people are still capable of showing generosity at a time like this."
I placed my cup down and lent forward and tore a small slice of bread before sitting back and enjoying some decent food. As i swallowed the last bite i looked up at the monk.
"So, whats your name? At first glance i would have taken you for a traditional monk, but given your choice in drink i would have to guess otherwise."

I wandered from town to town. Always feeling different from everyone else but never knew why. Was I normal or was I dying? I knew nothing and neither did those who have tried to help me. The new smell from a new village hit me and drew me in, with what little coin I had I bought some food and drink from the local tavern. No one looked at me as I walked in.
"...your cheapest drink please?"
The bartender handed me the drink of what smelt like rat and asked for 2 coins, I handed the, over and walked to a empty table. In front of me were two men talking with one offering bread. Leaning over I tapped him on the shoulder.
"...Sir...I don't mean to intrude but...may I?" I hinted toward the bread even though I had bought some food.That wouldn't last long and I was running out of money.

Just as I was about to speak there was a tap on my shoulder. There was a man gesturing towards the sweetbread still left in front of me. That was sure not gonna take care of me for lunch or dinner, but by then I probably would want something more substantial anyway. I knew that it was hard times and held my hand out to offer the man a seat next to us. I turned around and continued,
"...My name is Rain, but no I am not a monk. I was, in a sense, raised by them so the clothes I have on is from the monastery. There's not much else to the story."
That, at least, was what my story had been for the past few years. Besides, these were just folks that I probably wouldn't see again anyway. There were not that many people who looked as out of the bunch as us and I could feel the eyes of some of the locals upon us now. Not seeing them might be sooner than I thought. I sit up in my chair to pick up my katana from my side and set it on my lap.
"...and the Baijiu... it's just a little bit of hair of the dog, you know? What about you? Neither of you strike me as one of the townsfolk here."
I let my voice drop lower at the end of the statement as I could tell that there was some tense attention being drawn our way. Whether it was hostile or not I could not tell, but I would be prepared. I caught glimpse of an open window just in case I needed to make a break for it.

As Rain pull his Katana to his lap my frist impression is that he is here for me, but after a second i could see the looks we were getting and the tension was building. I rested one hand apon the nunchuck at my side and took a sip of water before awnsering his question.
"I suppose im more of a taveller, wandering about untill i find my path. Not much more than that really."
As the townsfolk grew more suspicious i tightened my grip and kept it hidden under my coat. I moved my chair round the table to make room for the other stranger joining us, being that he was the only person here not staring at us i dident mind. I turned to the other man and spoke.
"So, whats your story?"

I moved to site next to one of the men. taking a small amount of the bread as i did so and chewed it. I finished chewing and answered the mans question. "Story? I don't know, i travel trying to make ends meat. I guess it hasnt worked out so well." i glanced around. "I think we should move. it looks as though its about to get messy here"
"ITS HIM!" on of the crowd shouted looking towards me "HE KILLED MY FAMILY"
"We should go now. My story is a little more interesting than i may have hinted at." I spoke as i stood quickly and darted for an open window. "It wasnt my i killed them. IT WASNT MY FAULT!" i screamed at the mob chased me.

I jumped from my seat almost at the same time as the man. The crowd rushed towards us and I held weapon with the sheathe still on. I held it at my side and turned towards the window behind the man. I darted between tables and chairs, rattling glasses and plates. The men still yelling behind us.
...ITS HIM... HE KILLED MY FAMILY...
I remember screaming those same words to myself years ago. I was just a boy, but I could still see it. The ashes, the look on their faces. The sounds and smells of what I was, what I am. Then, it was happening, my breathing became more full, my vision began to tint red, and my body began to feel warm again.
This happens every time I think of...
I sprinted for the window, ready to jump through. I lift my legs from over the chair and take one step. That sounded like the loudest stomp I had ever heard. Enough to wake the rest of this now chaotic town. The next step I took launched me forward with what seemed to be more of a grip on the floor. With all my might I pursue the man that had darted before me. I don't remember much of if, when, or how I made it in front of the the other guy. I can only recall the yells, jumping through the window and landing in a small creek just on the other side. The temperature from the water was enough to cool anyone off, which I was glad to feel on my body.
OOC Notes
As everyone started shouting and running i quickly stood up kicking my chair back and valting over the table and diving head first through the window the others had gone through. I landed in a crouching position in the creek just outside the window, i acted on instinct and threw both hands in the air manipulating the water in the stream and sending a powerful jet of water through the window forcing the people following to the ground. I quickly sprinted off and caught up with the other two men.
Typical i suppose, still this could prove to be entertaining.
After a few mintues of running we were deep in the woods, i shouted to the others.
"I THINK WE LOST THEM!"
I came to a slow hault and lent forward resting my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath.

Immediately, I cool off from the stream, only long enough do I stay there to realize that water was being lifted from under me and into the air; then shot through the window. As if controlled by the man that was behind me, the water shot with enough force as he simultaneously moved to knock our pursuers flat onto their backs.
Oh sh*t...
I get up, almost tripping over myself, and quickly head towards the forest.
What did I just see? There was no way that happened. It was like he just picked up the whole creek and through it at them.
I ran until I heard a distant voice
I took a few more steps before I decided to slow down and turn. I was much deeper in the forest than I thought I was and had to make my way way back, at least to say thank you for getting those guys off of our trail while we made a break for it. After a few minutes of walking, I wasn't out of breath and I walked up to the familiar faces from before.
"O.K. so I'll say it. What the hell was that?"

I could hear them. A shout from one of the men then footsteps. I followed them in disgust, not at them but at myself. Why didn't i see him at the bar? why didn't i recognize him?
As i finally approached the others i sat down. "I couldn't stop myself, i needed the money but i didn't want to hurt them. I didn't have control of what i was doing." i heard more footsteps in the distance, The pounding growing louder and louder as if more people were joining. "I was scared. So i killed them. First it started with small stones then became walls of stone and earth. It encased them.I don't know what was happening." I was slowly becoming more distraught. "IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR IT!" I cryed as i screamed. "I'm sorry i should have never got you into this? I heard what you did with the stream. You have this curse aswell?" I looked at them both.
Looking toward the man with the sword i recalled his name "Rain and...." i turned to the other man "My name is Shibuya."

After a few seconds i stood up straight and looked at Rain then to Shibuya before speaking.
"My name is Tbore, and i suppose you could call that my curse. Althoe i have never been able to do somthing like that, normally im confined to smaller feats."
I took off my coat and placed it on a rock beside me then sat and lent back on it.
"However i wouldent so much call is a curse, not as of late anyway. Why should somthing unique about one person be branded a curse? Why not call it a gift? or a blessing? Nothing is a curse or evil unless you make it so, yet somthing good or great is known from its start. I dont know when this started or who was the first, but for it to be 'evil' someone had to come first and make it so."
My glance moved to Rain.
"Since you havent made any threats towards us or ran away id have to say this isent your first contact with people like us, am i right?"

"Well..."
I started as I picked up a leaf,
"...I have never found anyone that could bend water the way that you do, or move the earth in the way you're describing, but I have found that I can do this..."
The leaf went up into flames. I was never really able to control the burns, just start them and let the fire do the rest itself. I was unsure of how their reaction would be.
"This has been a curse to me. Because of it, my entire family is dead and I have no one in the world to turn to that has not shut me out. The world is cold and lonely so the Gods, I feared, chose to let this demon possess me. I see now that there are others which means this is not a demon but some sort of strange ability. Let's try to figure this thing out, but first, we need to let each other know our stories. Our REAL stories."

OOC Notes
I sit up as Rain ignites the lead and thoughts begin to run through my head, meanings and symobls of which i do not yet know of. I quickly flicked myself onto my feet and paced a few feet before speaking.
"Earth...."
I pointed at Shibuya while still moving.
"Fire..."
My finger moved to Rain.
"Water."
I continued thinking to myself.
This cant be just coincidence.
I stopped pacing and turned to face them both.
"Gentlemen i have never been one that belived in fate, not having full control of my life and actions is not a concept i find appealing. However, destiny on the other hand is somthing that i might be prepared to belive in, given the right reason too. Three strangers meeting and running together all of which happen to be in possesion of somthing most would call evil or demonic. Coincidence? Not a story i would buy, even if it is the truth. Thoe in my mind there is somthing conciderably more disturbing than what people would find if they found out about us."
I crouched down balacing on my toes.
"That would be the absence of Air. Even the most undertrained monkeys know of the four elements yet i count only three here, and if it is destiny that we were to meet then what for? And where is our forth 'brother' of manipulation?"
I rocked back and sat back in my previous position against the rock.
"Then again maybe i am just reading too much into things. Wouldent be the first time my mouth has gotten me into trouble."
I closed my eyes and allowed my mind to wander.
The again maybe not....

"Gentlemen i have never been one that belived in fate, not having full control of my life and actions is not a concept i find appealing. However, destiny on the other hand is somthing that i might be prepared to belive in, given the right reason too. Three strangers meeting and running together all of which happen to be in possesion of somthing most would call evil or demonic. Coincidence? Not a story i would buy, even if it is the truth. Thoe in my mind there is somthing conciderably more disturbing than what people would find if they found out about us."
I crouched down balacing on my toes.
"That would be the absence of Air. Even the most undertrained monkeys know of the four elements yet i count only three here, and if it is destiny that we were to meet then what for? And where is our forth 'brother' of manipulation?"
I rocked back and sat back in my previous position against the rock.
"Then again maybe i am just reading too much into things. Wouldent be the first time my mouth has gotten me into trouble."
I closed my eyes and allowed my mind to wander.
The again maybe not....
OOC Notes
A gentle breeze blew threw the forest, making it howl softly but soon right above where everyone was branches started snapping and grunts of pain and short scream of surprise followed soon afterwards then a body plummet to the ground but before the body touched the ground it seem to have slowed, no float a bit, just feets from the ground then plop.
The old brown cape was over the person's head and all that could be seen was the dirty shoes, shirt and pant with holes and tears in it. "...Ouch..." The person pull the cape off from over their head to reveal the face of a girl. She look up at everyone and grin as she rub her rump. "Heh. Sorry. Um...I wasn't stealing or anything." She put her hands up, palms facing out and she stood up but then three coin bags fell down from her pocket. The coin bags belonged to the three guys standing before her. "Oh um...I-I found that somewhere else." she lied then she took a few steps back, grinned and took off running. "See ya!"

I quickly flicked myself onto my feet as i heard a branch snap pulling my nunchucks from my side and spinning it around my hand ready for combat. As i saw the body falling from the trees above us i took a step back and expected to hear a loud thump as it hit the ground. As it neared the ground and began to hover slightly i took another step back in shock. I dropped my guard and stood straight just staring at this person now standing infront of us.
Well that pretty much settles it, none of this is just coincidence.
I was still stunned by everything that the next thing i actually notice is the person running off, I slowly turned to the others.
"Call me crazy but i think we should probly get after her."
I quickly whipped my weapon back into its place on my hip and sprinted off after her.

I watched as Tbore pieced together everything or tried to. It made sense while i thought about it but my focus swayed as i heard a noise above us which then turned into a loud crack and scream. The girl that has fallen made off quickly and i seconded what tbore said and made chase after him.
"Tbore...she floated...you said we were missing an element and i think we just found them." it made me smile at how she managed to survive a fall like that and also how i didnt hear her. "Amazing..." I said out loud

OOC Notes
After everyone took off running I decided to go after her as well. I began running in her direction behind Tbore and Shibuya, but suddenly turned left when I remembered catching glance of a river on that side of the forest as we escaped the townsmen. I figured I would turn left here and circle around, that way we could catch her, and the rest of our money.
What are we supposed to be doing here and why would fate have brought the four of us together?

OOC Notes
I continue running as my eyes search for an escape, scared that the three guys chasing after me would throw me in jail or worst for attempting to steal their money. I made a sharp turn and head towards the river. Maybe I will lose them once I cross the water. Surely they arn't that angry enough with me to chase me across a river....right? I gave a slight shrug with my shoulders and continue running as hard and fast as I could, hoping that outrunning them would be enough to get me out of trouble. I glance back and two guys chasing after me and I turn my head and swallow hard. The guys chasing after me look pretty mean. Perhaps today is the day that I pickpocket the wrong group of people and actually have to pay the consequences for it.
OOC Notes
We started to gain on her as we continued to dart through the woods, I could see her hair waving behind her as she ran infront of us.
We have to stop her now!
As we came to a river i stopped and shot my arms up into the air, as i did the water infront of the women lifted out of the river bed. It was like a wall of water reaching to the top of the trees but only for a moment before the strain came apon me and i dropped to a knee breathing deeply. As my arms dropped the water came shooting back into the river bed, I placed a hand on my chest and tryed to slow my breathing.
I hope that was enough to stop her.

OOC Notes
I ran for the river as fast as I could.
Maybe she'll try to cross it, so I'd better try and cut her off.
I finally made it through the woods, when I reached a cliff. I figured I had run too far, but I could still hear the foot steps in the distance. I follow the river up. As I ran I noticed the water became shallow in the riverbed. I didn't think much of it at the time.
Must be the dry season.
Later, the river was more aggravated and deeper, but as my eyes followed forward I could see a bump then rise in the water beyond the banks. Then, the girl burst forth from the woods. I saw the wall rise up in front of her. I leaped for her and tackled her to the ground.
"Stop squirming..." I told her, "...we're not police, and we're not going to hurt you." I looked up at my new found band of friends, "I don't think we are, right?"

OOC Notes
I was closing on the river, if only I could jump over it. I gasped as the water shot up, creating a wall of water right in front of me. I skidded to a stop and look up at the wall of water in surprise then I tried to look around for another escape but I soon felt myself get tackled onto the ground. "Ouch! Hey let me go!" I yelled and I struggled to get out from under this monk-looking guy.
Upon hearing that, I struggled even more. "No! D-Don't hurt me!" I look at the young guy on this knees, obviously tired. "N-No, please don't hurt me! I beg of you!"I don't think we are, right?

Re: [OOC] The First Benders
I would really like for our benders to go through the story discovering their powers and what their powers are, but also just going with the flow as usual and eventually discovering their unique powers such as;
for fire, the lightning bending;
earth, the metal bending;
water, the blood bending;
and air, was a little tricky but I vote for whatever the airbender chooses that makes sense
remember these people have no idea what their powers are, all they know is that they are the only ones in the world that have them

Re: [OOC] The First Benders
Just wanna clear a couple of things up quickly. What is the extent of our powers? for Example since my charater is a waterbender, dose that mean later in the story when we learn what we are and gain a lot more control of it i can turn the water into ice and evaporate water and such? Or are we just gonna go with the flow and see what happens?
Re: [OOC] The First Benders
The character seems to be fine. I'm really wanting to get started on this so I guess we can have someone else jump in after the stories begin. Remember these characters don't even know what bending is starting off. they just know they have some weird powers
