[QUOTE="Kord's Boon, post: 4753657, member: 80939"] All the suggestions so far have been good, and the multiclassing idea is great. I'm thinking that each bending class should have its own write-up and features, but draw on the same pools of powers, with the stipulation that they cannot take powers with an elemental keyword other than their own. I'm also rather curious on how they should be broken down role wise. From what I saw during the show, all the benders had a substantial controller component: moving enemies around, forcing them to take inefficient actions, area denial, and area damage. In addition, should all the bender use the same primary stat, or can you lump them all into wisdom? Earth: Does anyone remember a specific example when an earthbender did something 'defenderish', they not only need to be tough, but has some way of making themselves a more attractive target (in other words, what is the mechanism of their requisite marking feature). Also, would strength or constitution be their secondary stat? Wisdom seems to be their primary. Fire: Striker for primary or secondary role obviously, however considering that it's later revealed the 'life-energy' can act as their power source in addition to aggressive feelings, you might be able to shoulder in the leader roll as well with a little hand waving.
