The Daily Grind: SYOC
Avatar Korra is out there, with the new Team Avatar, fulfilling her Avatar duties. But what about the citizens as they go through every day life in Republic City, while Equalists are at large?
The Daily Grind focuses on fictional citizens of Republic City, both benders and non-benders, with or against the Avatar, good or bad. So here are the rules:
1) You must have an account to submit. And please leave your private messaging feature opened so it will be easier to contact you.
2) Please try to avoid creating Mary Sues and Gary Stus. Keep your characters believable.
3) Please fill in all the details in the submission form such as personality, description, etc. and try to follow the word count.
4) OCs cannot be related to any of the characters in the Legend of Korra. If you want them to be a metalbending officer or an Equalist, etc., they MIGHT interact with the characters (Chief Bei Fong, Amon, etc.)
5) Characters can be all of all ages, including students.
6) Characters NOT allowed: Airbenders (it has been clearly stated that Aang and his descendants are the last airbenders), characters with the ability to energybend (a task performed only by the Avatar himself).
7) Bloodbenders are allowed, for antagonists. Protagonists who can bloodbend will not display their ability because bloodbending is illegal in Republic City.
8) Firebenders with blue flames are not allowed as Azula and dragons were the only ones with access to that.
9) Sub-elements must correspond with main elements. Please don't create a character who is a waterbender but is able to metalbend.
10) Please do not create probenders at this stage. Later on in the story there will be a chance for your characters to be probenders.
11) All characters must be citizens (not royalty, councilmen, etc.). They may be rich, but not like Hiroshi Sato.
12) If your characters drive Satomobiles or like to dine at Kuang's Cuisine, do state it in the personality section.
13) Married/engaged/in a relationship characters are allowed, but their spouse/fiancé/fiancée/boyfriend/girlfriend's names are to be stated, and that's all. They will be rarely mentioned.
