Talk:Air Nomads

Where does all that about 35 levels and inventing a new technique come from? I don't recall seeing that in the show. —Robotech Master 16:24, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

That came from those Lost Scrolls book things. 189.32.145.118

Non-benders
C'mon, they couldn't ALL be benders. Where did the rest live?

Mike and Bryan already said they were all Airbenders due to their increased spirituality. Omnibender 23:28, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

They all lived in monasteries high up in the mountains, so it's defintely possible that they were all Airbenders as there was little they could share with the world (trade, material things etc). If the likes of Guru Pathik (a non-airbender) hang out with them to learn spirituality, they must be pretty special indeed.

One also supposes that they were the smallest of all the Four Nations.PhantomS 15:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

thats all well and good but....
what happens now? Aang's the last one, right? What about the avatar cycle? What about Air bending? What nation will the avatar be born into after the next water earth and fire avatars? Obviously not the air nation, because IT DOESN'T EXIST!

You're forgetting that the Avatars before the next Air Nomad character will need to learn Airbending. Most likely, Aang will have lots of children to whom he can teach Airbending. Omnibender 16:33, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Since Aang survived the war and has hooked up with Katara, nothing is stopping him from replenishing the Air Nomad line

Please sign your posts with four tildes (~). And you practically repeated what I said. Omnibender 00:15, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

It might be possible for people with high spiritual levels to start learning Airbending, though the main worry is the Sky Bison, of whom Appa is still the last confirmed member. Bending need not be innate, at least in terms of Airbending and Firebending, which can be learnt from Sky Bison and Dragons. If Aang can somehow get Appa to teach or enlighten people it might just work.

Like the people above say, Aang might have children with Katara, which provides for one more generation of potential Airbenders. If they go round and mix with other people and so forth, by the time a new Air Nomad Avatar born (roughly about 200-300 years later, give or take) there will be more than enough airbenders.

What might change is that the Air Nomads might actually be proper nomads and move around the world like Aang did, on journeys of enlightenment; a frequent theme in Buddhist writing.

One strange way to revive the Air Nomads might be reincarnation, as Yangchen hints that some Monks have reached spiritual enlightenment- if the Air Nomads are like the Lama of Tibet then they might just reincarnate in other people, at least until they properly reach nirvana.PhantomS 15:34, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Patola Mountain Range
I was wondering if we should make a page for this. I realize that all we know about it is that it is located on the Southern Air Nomad islands and that the Southern temple is located here, but there are other places that have articles and we known even less.

Vegetarianism
I'm not sure if Air Nomads are realy vegetarian or is just one of Aang's caracteristics. If we analize carefuly the dialoge between Aang and Yangchen in The Old Masters, he mentioned "I'm even a vegetarian", and he's saying this to other air nomad. In the rest of the series, Aang always referes to his own talking of vegetarianism. Prbably you have a solid source, some kind of book or something to give this information, i dont know. If that's the case, i'm better shut up for once. --. 00:53, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
