Ultra Death Battle and Screwattack blogs: November 2021

Background

The avatar born after Aang and whose job it is to maintain balance in the world. Unlike Aang Korra showed promise at utilizing multiple bending types as a toddler and as a result knew of her status as an avatar at an even younger age. She was almost kidnapped by an anarchist group called the red lotus, which was only fended off by the efforts of the original avatar gang. As a result she actually spent most of her childhood under heavy guard, before finally setting off on her own to learn airbending from Aang’s son Tenzin as a young adult.

S1ep1 1:49 Korra is discovered as the avatar #background

Most of the adventures Korra have taken place in republic city. A nation founded by Aang after the 100 year war with the fire nation, near the edge of the earth kingdom. She’s fought off an anti-government movement called the equalist led by a man called amon. Gotten involved in a civil war between the water nation tribes and fought an ancient spirit called Vaatu. Fought the red lotus that tried to capture her as a child, and a potential dictator named kuvira.

The main addition in Korra was an explanation of how the Avatar came to be. It being explained that the avatar was created when Wan merged with an ancient light spirit called Raava. This fusion is also what allowed the Avatar to use all 4 elements at once. In the second season Raava is extracted from Korra and destroyed. While Korra merges with a new version of Raava after, this severs her link to past avatars.
