    So this is my therory.

    Does anyone remember the spirit kho in the North Pole part 2? well remember how a previous Avatar got all angry at this spirit for steeling the face of the woman he loved? well I don't think that the Avatar is ever supposed to marry a woman and procreate. think about it. the avatar must die to ensure that he is reincarnated into the next tribe. So that means he cannot have any children or Marry anyone for that matter because if he were to have children or a child with a person he loves then the child would or may have the avatar spirit enstilled within him. Hence why Kho or the Face-stealer stole the face of a woman a previous avatar loved. Plus this spirit did say that they will be meeting again...so yeah....not to crush the spirits of all those Aang and Katara couple fans but i think this is what may happen. But who knows maybe it won't just a theory.

    yeah it actually is kinda wierd.. Because the avatar will be reincarnated.. but that means Aang has to die and then somebody else will become The Avatar (Waterbender if I'm correct), but that person will never be able to learn Airbending if Aang won't have kids,.. right?

    Hello,

    I'm a big fan of the show and I find it's stor very interesting to follow. I was just wondering if there are any posts on hereor from any websites that give a detailed backstory. Like the attacks of the Air Temples or even stuff about Avatar Roku. It seems like the way the shows going there doesn't seem to be much room for story after Aangs fight with Ozi. (I've alrdy seen such topics questioning how the next avatar would learn air bending or how aang would repopulate the Air tribes.

    I also read something from wikipedia explaining how one monk actually was jealous about Aang and how he was the one who gave away their whereabouts to the Fire Nation. Also How old do flying Bisson usually live to? I would imagie that being 100+ years old would make him tired a lot. lol.

    I guess he doesnt die and breaks the cycle. I mean the show is "In a lost age." so who is to say it isnt Earth a million years ago and when Aang breaks the cycle then the idea of bending or people who can bend start to fade away over the years.

    One tiny detail however is that the human race only started to develop around 10.000 years ago also iron wasn't yet invented that many years ago...
    So in theory you can't say this is earth, but to have a real feeling of this avatar world we might as well say this was earth, cuz people reenact better with there own species then with some look-a-like aliens.

    *imagines avatar world filled with squid like creatures instead of humans*

    Woooow, that would be werid. I once made up a civilization and planet index for avatar, best peice of crap I ever pulled out!

    Ok here are the states on the avatar's world to end any debates, strait from Carl Sagan's encyclopedia galactica:

    Civilization type: 0.9C
    Society Code: 20H1
    ???Water, Earth, Fire, Air???
    Star: G0, high metallicity, high exotic particle levels from neighboring Quark star.
    Planet: fifth, average diameter = ~7,950 km, Surface Gravity = ~71%, Surface Atmospheric Pressure = ~3.16 atm, Atmospheric constituents = 89% N, 9% O2, ~1% others Rotation period = ~28hr, Axial tilt = 2.8 degrees, Orbital properties= ~479.33 rotational periods and seasonally elliptical orbit. Tectonic activity= 3 major tectonic plates, 1 major continent, 1 minor continent, extensive sub-continent island chains along major plate tectonics. Extraplanetary colonies: none, though likely seed race type hominoid genetically reengineered.
    Extraterrestrial contacts: None Galactic nest code: None
    Biology: Common carbon based oxygenating life. Lipids, L-proteins, D-sugars, D-Ribose based Nucleic Acids. Chlorophyll operating photosynthetic plant autotrophies feed on by mobile animal heterotrophs. Common circular DNA structure and sexual reproductive mechanism makes cross breeding of animal life unusually common and difficult to classify as individual species. High levels of telekinetic abilities manifested, higher dimensional organisms and states present. Sentient Humanoid mongoloid type life form.
    Technology: cycles in pre-singularity early-industrial technologies before returning to iron age technologies after massive wars. Telekinetic abilities and access to higher dimensional space cause unusual dynamics in social and population structure.
    Culture: 4 nation states of different kleptocratic structures. Oriental traditions, telekinetic fixations. Probability of survival (in 10,000 years): 0.001% The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy only states: Only kids and anime freaks go there.

    LOL
    you just got to much spare time
    but i said Look-a-like so squid like creatures wouldn't match up to what i see in my mirror,
    but then again maybe we are all mind controlled by a bunch of pigs who let us think that we are monkeys instead of being squid like creatures

    I don't think the avatar spirit could reincarnated into a child of a Avatar, surely not when the Avatar is still alive. Cause as far as I know you have to die to be reincarnated, don't you?

    exactly, so that means that Aang can have kids who will learn Airbending from him so that his kid(s) can learn it to the next avatar

    That's exactly what I thought too, it makes sense

    But if this were to happen, depending on who his wife is. For examlpe lets say he and Katara do get married and such. then that open up the question of Hybrids. =O

    I believe that the element is, but the ability to bend is not.

    I'm not sure how to look at this. In one case i think yes, bending can be inherited but if it skips a generation or sticks to a certain gender depending on the family i'm not sure. On the other hand i don't think it can be. it's the element that chooses you depending on your tribe. So i really don't know

    He might be able to teach those at the northern water tribe, or maybe there are survivors. It's hard to believe THAT ALL of them were wiped out.
