Yeah. I'm a Avatar fan too. 🙂The 4 elements are Air, Fire, Water, and Earth. But I think this was a bad idea to do this character. I just wanted to add someone so they could talk to Ayaka.
But ignore this character if you don't want her. Sorry about that, jalek.
its not that we dont want her
we just want to know a little more of what her powers do
if the powers work just like avatar, then just say it (do im still not to sure how they work even after seeing that youtube video)
but im sure jalek knows, and thats all that matters

Alright then, lets talk Avatar:
Bending is the ability to generate and manipulate the elements. The basic fact of Avatar is that only one person can master all four elements. Otherwise, benders only bend specific elements. That is simply the basics and actually irrelevant to this character, even though it is inspired by the Avatar to master all four elements.
There are different degrees of bending, which can be of relevance. The Earthbender Toph advanced her Earthbending so that although she is blind, she see through Earthbending. By feeling vibrations in the earth, she can pinpoint any activities and counter them with extreme precision. Toph also invented Metalbending by discovering that all metal had trails of earth inside it.
Another example of different degrees is waterbending. The most basic ability is to turn water dense enough to protect you from projectiles, but some waterbenders branch out. One example is healing injuries, while another is manipulating ice. The most notorious move however, is Bloodbending. Bloodbending is a type of Waterbending, with which the bender take control of the fluids inside the body of the opponent, actually controling their actions. Mindcontrol but without the mind.
Airbenders can fly and Firebenders produce lightning and more. Those are just a few examples.
Although words are nowhere near as useful as pictures. I seeked out five videos that show just how bending works.
This first video shows Aang and his Airbending. Obviously the manipulation of the element Air.
YouTube video
This next is Waterbending. Needless to say, the manipulation of water. This is the only art of bending that can not regenerate its own element. Save for Airbending, but air is everywhere. Even under water.
YouTube video
Next up is Earthbending, an art that Toph almost rule unrivaled supreme in. Remember that Toph is blind. In this video you see among other things Aang using Earthbending to manipulate crystals, which is considered part of the Earth category.

Lastly Firebending. It is the art of mastering Fire to various extents. All from common fire, to lava, steam, heat and even lightning. It can be turned solid enough to be used as a weapon. Along with Earth, Fire is the element you can be most creative with:

In a sense. In the Avatar universe, it is plainly known as Firebending. Energybending is a completely different thing.
The capabilities of Energybending are not well understood, but what is known is that bending a person's life energy can impart them with knowledge or remove one's powers completely. This bending art is dissimilar to the others because it is so perilous to the user, which is why so few have ever used it.
In layman words, it is the ability to bend life energy.
Since her character master all four primary elements, the character to do her most justice is the Avatar himself. The Avatar is the one being on the planet that is linked to all elements.
Do note that this fight takes place during the passing of Sozin's Comet, a comet that empower Firebenders. He is in this battle fighting the Phoenix King Ozai, supposedly one of the most prominent Firebenders out there.
Because I doubt her character is Avatar-state level, I picked a shorter video that exclude the Avatar-state, which is a vast empowerment for the Avatar. In this video, he is in his standard state. When the arrow on his head and body, as well as his eyes glow bright, he is in Avatar-state.

See what the hell you guys started?
Darn it! I got everyone into this! 😮
But yeah. I'm sorry I'm not on most of the time. See, mostly it's school, family, life... and plus, my parents don't want me online 24/7. Says the Internet will brainwash me. 😂
But yeah, I'm sorry for sounding so glum. Can you guys ever forgive me? And... what do you guys think I should do with my new character?
I'm trying really hard to participate. But College and my grades in school has really gotten to me.
Can you guys help me on this? I'm really sorry on worrying a lot too. I just don't want you guys to think of me as a whining jerk or a dumb jack... "jack-in-the-box"...
Which I probably am...
