Poison. She's canonically a herbalist which would make it likely for her to be in charge of Azulon's medicinal treatments, which gives her an avenue to poison him that otherwise makes no sense. Plus, a knife would make it obvious it was an assassination.
Depends on the toxin. I imagine poisons targetting the lungs would interfere with breathing and prevent a firebender from heating up properly for instance.
The vote is closed.[X] A lightning bolt. With Mai and Ty Lee there to keep Zuko's second in check, for the first time you may well be able to have a genuine Agni Kai. Just you, and Zuko, and the flame. The way it really was meant to be. And when you win—well, he'll probably have the waterbender there to heal him, and then you can talk, once your claim is so secure even the Avatar can't dislodge it.
I think this is the best choice. Let the girl have her one victory over zuzu and than Azula can tell him how she's the best
I mean, bloodbending makes sense by that logic, but the very fact that healing is a thing with the glowing and all makes it rather different than the baseline -kinesis that other forms of bending are. Like, waterbending allowing healing is definitely well beyond what could be done with just moving water around. Firebending allowing burning out diseases is equally unlikely, but it might work with breath of fire if that can safely raise body temperature to the point where bacteria might have trouble.
Sorry, my bad, used the wrong word, edited to specify I meant diseases being dealt with seems possible, if a pretty big stretch.
A lot of these secondary powers seem to fall into the category of "thing which are culturally considered associated with elements" rather than being only about the matter itself. Thus, healing would make sense with the general connotations of water being tied to life.
Oh of course, yeah. But healing is not really related in a meaningful sense to how much water is in the human body, it's purely about cultural associations as @Limabot mentioned. That's all I was trying to say.
That makes sense though lightning being associated with fire is a real oddity. Usually it's lightning and water or lightning and air. Lightning and fire are only connected in that if a bolt of lightning hits dry grass it can start a fire. Well that and "both fire and lightning can kill you real good."
Lightning is culturally associated with fire though
Is Astral projection an airbender thing or an avatar/spiritualism thing?
It's only used by airbenders. I'm not sure it's ever used by an Avatar as opposed to normal airbenders, actually.
LoK established astral projection as an airbending thing
Korra learned how to do it too
Correct. Rewatched Season 2 a couple months ago, and it's not aaaas bad as I remembered it being, but yeah, you're not missing out on too much. Jinora's definitely one of its redeeming qualities though.
There's a guy from the ATLA RPG with it as well, airbender.
According to creator commentary this is a different thing done through energybending, apparently! I'm as surprised as you.Korra learned how to do it too
God, energybending is so dumb, just completely undercut all of Aang's multi season tension over what to do about Ozai with a magic turtle out of nowhere.
Oh im not looking forward to that day
