So bloodbending is already the most OP form of bending (In my opinion) but I feel like it could go a lot further than it did. I feel like bloodbending could have been so much more powerful with one specific effect: Blindness. Take Amon or Tarrlok as an example. Neither of them wanted to kill Kora so just cutting off her bloodstream is off the table. But what about blinding her? They could have easily just forced her eyelids shut with bloodbending. That could have made it so much harder for Kora to fight back. And if you had the ability to immobilize, knock out, or blind someone at will? No wonder bloodbending's illegal. Anyway, is this just another overlooked ability or was it intentionaly left out so that bloodbenders were beatable?

I've always wondered how many equalists had benders in their families I mean with so many of them I couldn't help feeling that some of them could've had benders in their families

So its a fanmade bending, basically controlling molecules, but not create them. This would probably be almost impossible to master as anyone who masters it can basically be a psuedo-avatar. It might also allow bending of other materials, which is a bit op, might I add

This is where Korra begins to suspect that Hiroshi is working for the Equalists.

Ever since the two-part origin story of the Avatar back in The Legend of Korra Book 2, I've wondered what the world of Avatar was like before Vaatu and Raava ripped open the portals to the spirit world in the midst of their eternal struggle.

1. Did this occur before or after humans evolved to the state of sapience they possess now?

2. What really is the reason behind all the hybrid animals that combine the strangest of adaptations and parts of multiple species?

3. When did the Lion Turtles start acting as humanity's guardians and hosts?

4. What were the earliest days of the spirits in the physical world like?

5. How did the Lion Turtles come to be in the first place? And for that matter, how did they come to possess the ability to bestow the powers of the elements upon humans via energybending?

I have had so many questions about these things for over a decade now. But I'd also like to hear what other people think.

The only one of these questions that I have a reasonable theory for are the hybrid animals. My best guess is that spirits in their earliest days in the physical world possessed animals and mutated them into the common hybrid species that we see in the series. And as we all know, with the exceptions of Raava and Vaatu, spiritual possession of a human form will mutate it and transfer a patchwork of the spirit's inherent metaphysical qualities into them, such as with Yao, Tokuga, and the hunter from Avatar Wan's hometown. Spirits mixing up the bodies and DNA of animals seems a reasonable guess for why so many seemingly incompatible or impossible hybrids exist, such as spider-flies, sabretooth moose-lions, and snow leopard caribou. Out of all of Avatar's more bizarre fauna, the winged lemurs seem to be one of the more plausible results of a natural evolution.

I've always thought it bizarre just how many strange creatures inhabit the world of Avatar while being seemingly commonplace to the point where a basic brown bear such as Bosco would be considered anomalous while other hybrid bear species are considered the norm.

But this is just my rambling. Please, feel free to comment and share your takes on this. Just remember to keep the topic focused.

It's such a missed opportunity to not have Varrick be Sokka's son. Their both from the southern water tribe, Varrick's age wouldn't make it impossible (I think he's in his 30s compared to tenzin & Lin being 40s), both are geniuses & strategists...

Omg Varrick is sokka 2.0. Non bending, genius from the southern water tribe, who marries a non-bender earth kingdom woman. Said woman is stronger and/or smarter than their goofball husbands.
