Congrats on finishing the review! Though I am now curious as to what might come of Embers in the future.

Also, due to joining a ATLA-inspired RP that's set just after the war with Fire Lord Ozai, I now have an OC who might not do well in the Embersverse.

Mainly because she's a Waterbender born in the Fire Nation. Though, that's more because one of her ancestors got tangled up with a member of that Swampbending tribe, and the water bending didn't show up until Lu Xia was born. Her family ran an inn at the colony she grew up in, and she usually helped out by tending to the hot spring that made that inn a local landmark.

Well, until an incident happened late one night involving a Fire Nation Soldier, a patch of ice she accidentally made, and a very pissed off spirit that happened to just be there enjoying the hot spring. That incident led to Lu Xia leaving home in a gray outfit (which was considered a sign of grieving in that Colony as she was seen as being garbed in "Ashes left behind by a lost fire"), and wandered the world and decided to start making art to get by.

And also use that art to practice her bending, leading to her creating "Inkbending" as a result.

Anywho, she *also* has a bit of bad luck as she tends to get mistaken for a spirit in her travels. Either due to the ink smudges she has on her skin and clothes, or the fact her giant backpack she carries around ended up getting covered in moss at one point.

...With that bit of OC gushing aside, I just realized that I don't think the Swampbenders were ever brought up in Embers, were they? If they were, I probably forgot about how they were portrayed there.
