there is a story older then the four nations about The Shadow General a person who heart had grown so dark and will was so strong then even the very shadows bend to The General will, a "shadow bend" if you will. The General conquered many kingdoms with an unstoppable army of benders of all kinds, but there true power was The General's bending crushing entire armies single handedly. all hope looked to be lost but that is when the Avatar roses to face the shadow army along with an army of benders and non benders not wanting to fall to the shadows. the battle rages for what seemed like days and it was becoming incredibly clear to the Avatar there was no end to the The General power. at the climax of the battle the Avatar had no choice but to use the last of his energy to seal away the General and whats left of the army of shadows in a tome the preventive all trap in side from bending.

the day was won, but not at a high price the Avatar and many other gave there lives to stop the the General and his army. those who survived soon forming Order of the White Lotus hoping they could keep General and his army locked away, but one as strong as the General would no simply die like a common man nor his army. they wait locked locked away from the world waiting for there return.
(i know its short >_> but it should give you an idea of whats going on)

Bending

Waterbending - one of the four elemental bending arts, is the hydrokinetic ability to control water, as well as its many forms. This type of bending is utilized by the people of the Water Tribes, who are divided into the Southern, the Northern, and the lesser known Foggy Swamp, as well as those of the United Republic, each with their own unique bending style. Water is the element of change. The moon is the source of power in waterbending, and the original waterbenders learned to bend by observing how the moon pushed and pulled the tides.The Water Tribes are the only people who did not learn bending from an animal, though the Moon and Ocean Spirits took the form of koi fish in the mortal world near the beginning of the Avatar World.
The fighting style of waterbending is mostly fluid and graceful, acting in concert with the environment. Foggy Swamp style waterbending, however, is more rigid and straight. Waterbenders deal with the flow of energy; they let their defense become their offense, turning their opponents' own forces against them.



Airbending - one of the four elemental bending arts, is the aerokinetic ability to control and manipulate currents of air. The peaceful Air Nomads utilized this type of bending in their everyday lives. Air is the element of freedom. The Air Nomads detached themselves from worldly problems and concerns; finding peace and freedom was the key to solving their difficulties in life. Airbenders continually sought spiritual enlightenment, and, as a result, all children born into the Air Nomads were benders. The first airbenders learned their art from the flying bison.
The key to airbending is flexibility and finding and following the path of least resistance. Airbending is notable for being almost purely defensive, as well as the most dynamic of the four bending arts. Airbenders can overwhelm many opponents at once with large and powerful attacks that could prove fatal; however, due to the pacifist nature of the Air Nomads, such attacks are rarely used. Due to aforementioned spirituality, they often adapt to the situation surround them and prefer to dodge an opponent instead of a direct attack


Firebending - one of the four elemental bending arts, is the pyrokinetic ability to control fire. It is unique among the bending arts, as it is the only one in which the performer can spontaneously generate the element. While the first human firebenders were the Sun Warriors, it has since spread to the people of the Fire Nation, and the United Republic. Fire is the element of power, consisting of overpowering force tempered by the unflinching will to accomplish tasks and desires. However, during the Hundred Year War, a militaristic Fire Nation twisted this into firebending being fueled by rage, hatred, and anger. Firebending draws its power from the sun, and the first human firebenders derived their firebending techniques from the dragons.
Firebending is notable for its intensive attacking style and general lack of adequate defense moves, although some notable firebenders utilize creative defensive techniques by creating large walls of fire, or shooting down incoming objects with precise attacks.



Earthbending - one of the four elemental bending arts, is the geokinetic ability to manipulate earth and rock in all their various forms. It is utilized by people of the Earth Kingdom and the United Republic. Earth is the element of substance, making earthbenders and their people diverse, strong, persistent, and enduring. The first earthbenders, Oma and Shu, learned the art from badgermoles. The key to earthbending is utilizing neutral jing, which involves waiting and listening for the right moment to strike and, when that moment comes, acting decisively. In other words, earthbenders generally endure their enemies' attacks until the right opportunity to counterattack reveals itself, then strike with unyielding force.




Shadowbending - not much is known about this art.

(now i feel i should say this the only Shadowbender will be the The Shadow General so the members of the dark army will have to be from one of the other 4 elemental bending arts and this is a non canon so there is no need to mention the canon )
