If I could bend, I think I’d choose the earth nation. Imagine how much cool shit you could build. Need an extension on your house? Here’s a brand new stone wall in 30 seconds.
I would take it upon myself to solve homelessness, if it existed. You need a house? Done. You need a house? How many rooms? Done.
I would build so. much. stuff. It would get weird.
Honestly, this right here is the main reason I don’t believe any real-world bending would end any way other than Earth Kingdom dominance. Peaceful dominance, hopefully.
You can’t wipe out their infrastructure as long as someone is alive who knows how it’s done.
Oh, fire nation bulldozed your house because they felt like it? Well boom. Stomp stomp punch. New identical house made of stone.
Bridge collapsed to cause chaos? Stomp stomp punch, it’s back.
Don’t feel safe living out in the open where fire nation scouts could murderhobo you harder than my last D&D group? Stomp stomp punch, now you have a vast mansion underground in which you can simply… Not go above ground until you need to.
Of course, underground living isn’t simple as “hole in ground, hide all day” but still… There is 0 reason the EK shouldn’t go full Vietnam War tactics.
Ha! I never thought about the underground mansion hideaway. Good stuff. You’re right, they’d be pretty much unstoppable and unbeatable.
Earth honestly looks like the only functional society. The water nation is living in exile in hidden pockets and you’re quite likely to get drafted in the fire nation.
Yeah I guess they are generally more… grounded
Air because 100% of them are benders. You don’t get that guarantee in the other nations. If bending wasn’t a factor, probably either water or air, as they both seem chill. As a vegetarian though, air would probably align more with my values anyway.
Oh I guess I never knew that 100% of the air nomads were benders. Is that cause they exile any non-bender children? Seems pretty unlike them…
That depends on whether or not I can be a Bender. Culturally I think I’d be better suited as an air nomad, it fits my wanderlust and passive lifestyle. Otherwise the earth Kingdom, especially if I could be an earth bender.
I didn’t see the second movie, but the one with the floating rocks seemed pretty cool.
That’s a fanmade movie… Right
It’s the one made by M. Night Shyamalan.
Christ
I think practically it’d have to be earth. Water nation might not be too bad cuz u like the cold but idk about being surrounded by snow everyday of the year. Air nomad would be nice to have a sky bison but I’m not vegetarian and I don’t like tattoos.
We livin as nomads or in the swamps. Bending or not doesn’t matter. Though if I can’t bend I’d rather be with the swamp people than air nomads.
Totally depends on timeline and if we’re also including TLoK as well. Anytime before the wars began, gotta agree with someone else who said fire nation. During the war? Probably still in the fire nation since you don’t really see them getting attacked in their nation much. The fascist kinda lifestyle wouldn’t be too cool, but would rather not live in constant fear of being attacked over accidentally saying something wrong. Especially since I’m fairly positive there’s no way I’d be a bender.
If we’re talking TLoK included, don’t remember which natition it’s in, but the metal city where they literally open it up like a blooming flower seems like a cool place to live.
The last personality test I took had me in
black bilethe Earth Nation.Either the water benders or earth benders. Water bender because of the environment but earth benders because it fits my personality and because being among the water benders would probably require me to be able to do watery stuff.
Probably the one inspired by pacific islanders, I’m more of a sea guy and the whales seem cool to gang out with
The what?
