Question about the whole gates thing, shouldn't it be impossible to do anything similar without chakra? (Please correct me if i'm wrong, by no means infallible,) but the gates, as far as I know, are the bodies REGULATION OF CHAKRA , making the person weaker than base potential, but keeping them from breaking/tearing themselves apart with their own chakra, releasing said gates removes the restriction, pushing the person past their limits, allowing the chakra to flow at a less safe level.The damage caused to the body, as well as the sharp increases in ability are from the chakra's release, without chakra, there wouldnt really be any gates to use,would there?... unless we go with chi I suppose, as we've seen there IS a circulation system for it,(otherwise chi blocking would likely prove a lot more inneficient than it was shown) though then i'm unsure as to the effect it would have.

*Sigh* Fine whatever. Might as well share what I now with the class if they're going to hold on to it like this.

The Chakra Gates actually have grounding in baseline biology. Our body is at any given time regulated to only be able to use 20% of our muscle mass. These limiters can be released, but it is both rare and damaging. You ever hear about a mother lifting a car off of her child? Look no further, here's your answer.
 
Ok, votes close, can someone give me a tally please.

Chi is a lot like Chakra, in how it moves throughout the body. There are Chi Networks, that look a lot like Chakra Networks, disabling said networks makes it almost impossible to move or do anything, AND there are particular nodes where most of the Chi/Chakra pass through.
The Chi Nexuses are semi-confusingly called Chakras and there are seven of them in the body.

They're based on the same RL meridians, after all.
 
Just found this so sorry if repeating but is it possible to replicate the Eight Gates using the 7 Chakra/Avatar State?

Would be awesome if we ended up as an Avatar that beat most enemies using purely our fighting skills in honor of Guy.

...I think I got a way to balance it, it will be weaker than the Naruto-verse version, and you will only be capable of learning it (there will be a story reason) when canon starts, so by the end of book 2 you may only have 2 gates, maybe.

Seems fair?

This turn consists of 6 months. That's a long time.
Yeah and we just got adopted by a big government organization, started learning Earthbending, and moved to the big city. We have shit to do. So long as we visit them next time it could easily be waved away as us needing to get settled in and to start MAXIMUM TRAINING as soon as possible.
 
100 Steps, 200 Punches and a lots of walking.

"Hmmm why I have to do this?"

You know, when I decide to follow Master Bao to learn to control the earth I didn't think I would end doing some weird slow movements while standing still.

"Usually we would begin your earthbending training by teaching you to have a strong balance and how to keep your feet firm on the ground, but some of the masters decide that a little of waterbending knowledge would help you a little," He explained while watching me move through the training ground.

"But is so sloooow~" I complained while doing another kata.

"For now, waterbending is about going with flow, using your opponent's strength against them, you must first learn the basic movements before augmenting the speed."

"But I'm not a waterbender," raise left hand, move right leg, lower right hand.

"…True, but learning about other styles can help you to have a better understanding of the earth."

"If you say so."

Respect to Elders: F
Waterbending Martial Knowledge: F+
Agility: F+
Counter-attack: F

----------
Of course after Master Bao training, I did some training of my own.

Luckily I learn some thinks from Master Bao talking, so I focused in my feet and my connection to the earth for now.

Earthbending: F++

Like with the waterbending training I move slowly but this time without rising my feet from the ground and trying to keep a firm grasp of it, and for a moment I think I could 'sense' the earth under me.

Seismic Sense: F

But just for a moment, I take that as a good sight, and keep with my training.

Earthbending: F+++
----------
Strong Fist, that's the name of the fighting style that the dream me use, and it was very devastating, it was all about pure strength and speed and I wanted to learn it.

Some days I spend a lot of time in front of the training dummies in the training grounds punching them no stop.

Strong Fist: F+

And other days I just run and run, sure some of guys look at my weird but isn't my fault that their Flames of Youth didn't burned as strong as my, thought it was weird how some of the girls looked at me like they were watching something adorable, some people are just strange.

Speed: F+
Charming: F

----------
All the constant training took a lot of my time, but from time to time I managed to visit the orphanage, with some White Lotus guards as escort.

It was all very tiring, but I made a promise and I will keep it.

Past Life Connection: E+++
Body of Steel: E+
Knowledge – South Pole Capital: F

----------

----------
Respect to Elders: F (You listen to your elders and take their advices in account, you have an easy time talking with older people)

Waterbending Martial Knowledge: F+ (This is your knowledge of the martial art part of waterbending)

Agility: F+ (The flexibility of your body)

Counter-attack: F (Your skill at using your opponents power against them)

Seismic Sense: F (The ability to sense trough rock, earth or metal, everything that is connected with it)

Knowledge – South Pole Capital: F (Your knowledge of the layout of the city)

Speed: F+ (How fast your body can move and attack)

Charming: F (Your ability to charm other people with your personality or actions, making you more likeable at their eyes)

AN: Yeah the slow dancing was Tai Chi aka waterbending, the bad thing about them thinking you're the avatar? They may try to teach you things that would matter much to you, but I promise that waterbending knowledge can become useful in the future, after all Iroh created the counter lighting technique from waterbending masters.

AN 2: Yeah Li keep his promise to orphanage, if the choice in the votes would have won then the event would be longer and with some other stats.

Since we are keeping our promise automatically, don't need to spend an action on it.
