| Name: Feng Valley Appearance:Winding around the base of the east region air nation mountains. The valley maps a long area. It follows the flow of a wide river for many miles, the water of which feeds the flora of the area. Trees grow in a sparce woodland around the valley. With enough open area between trees to grow smaller plants there are an assortment of small meadows between the thicker sections of wood, which of course draw an assortment of large and small mammals and birds to the area. Though the river runs wide, it doesn't flow fast. The calmer waters provide ideal watering holes for animals, and an assortment of creatures can be found drinking near it. The flowers and grass of the meadows are kept trimmed by the presence of larger mammals, such as the air nations signature animal, the sky bison, grazing on the lush grass and flowers and drinking in the river. Other large creatures such as wild deer, the occasional woodland lion, and the lower grazing mountain goats. Nation:Air Extra: I intended for the area to be a simple open area woodland with an agacent river. Larger mammals are required in most places to keep grass from becoming overgrown, so I'd assume it would be pretty full of those. Smaller creatures would be restricted to the shade of the trees, or a little further away from the river. I'd assume the area would be full of birdsong. Description: The air nations are known for being mountainous, and where there are mountains there are valleys. Feng Valley is a long winding one of these. Following the path of a wide river it contains mainly open woodland. With trees everywhere in sight, but sparce enough for the open meadows to be enjoyed. - concept pics:

| Name: Shīqù Depths - Lost Land Appearance:Shīqù Depths is an ancient city burrowed deep below the Earth, filled with glowing mushrooms and large earthen structures. They say the Earth is so much more dense and pure in the depths that Earthbenders are more empowered when within its bowels [Can bend at one rank above]. There are two entrances to these underground lands, and each of them are found in the Swamp Forest of the Earth Kingdom. Earthbenders who can read the terrain through vibrations can find the hidden openings easily. Both entrances are hidden deep in the roots of the massive tree in the center of the swamp. The cavern spreads across the majority of the Earth Kingdom and stretches beneath the outskirts of Ba Sing Se. The Glowing Mushrooms here are enormous compared to other fungi, the ceiling of the entire cave system glows with blue lights, and massive glowing vines that hang down. There is a teal fog that makes grasping the size of the Depths difficult, and mushroom spores that float throughout the air. Massive geode stones and geode veins also dot the ground, and the pools of water found within are an almost entirely opaque teal. The actual homes where the Shiqu people reside can be found within a large forest of giant glowing fungi. The first one will notice is a castle like structure with walls that are three stories high, made of solid rock. Only an Earthbender can create an opening. Within the walls are a series of large earthen homes and structures that house the Shiqu people and holds their entire civilization and knowledge. There are many statues and structures built in honor of the current Shiqu leader during their reign. These statues can be found in a large earthen temple towards the center of the underground city. Nation: Earth Kingdom Extra: - Creatures:
All creatures within the Lost Lands are Blind. However, they still can get around by sensing vibrations through the Earth. Cannibeetle Cannibeetles are insectoid creatures that live far beneath the surface of the Earth Kingdom. The Cannbeetles resemble massive earwigs [4 feet tall and 6 feet long] and attack with razor pincers when close. Cannibeetles have characteristic pincers on their abdomen, and membranous wings folded underneath short forewings. These creatures rarely use their flying ability, seeing how they can only leave the ground level by 15 ft and can only fly about 10mph. Their pincers are strong enough to pierce the earth and allow burrowing up to 15mph. These beetles locate their pray through sound and vibrations, as their eyesight is lacking. Cannibeetles are the biggest pests the Shīqù People have a problem with, as they lay their eggs within the fungi the people eat. This causes the people to usually hunt and kill these beetles when ever needed. Spiders These spiders are 10 feet large and 10 feet wide. They hold two massive pincers to bite into their prey with a deadly toxin that can cause paralyzing effects. They are usually found in groups in the deepest caverns of the depths, creating massive webs looking to collect an unlucky man who wanders into their nest. Webs taken straight from the spider's sack fetch a high price in the Shīqù Depths. It may even earn someone a heap of respect.
- Shīqù People:
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D0bi7L8kR-Q/Tqm6SDJ9byI/AAAAAAAABm0/COy2ULeq-ls/s1600/wallpaper-standard-anime-claymore-seven-ghosts-124339-canimedes-preview-027fd2c5.jpgEvery being that lives within the Depths are blind Earthbenders [Captain Level] that sense vibrations through the Earth itself [20m radius]. Rumors say the fungi they were eating from below was the cause of the sudden mutation that caused them to lose their eyesight and change their overall appearance. The Shīqù's skin is pale and glossy, from lack of sunlight, and their hair seems to be very grey, if not white. Contrary to popular belief, the People who dwell within the underground caverns are not lacking intelligence. Infact, their sense of government and social standard is far above our own to the point that there is no crime or strife within their small civilization. The technology used by the underground Earthbenders involve a series of clockworks and gears to help shape their defense against the outside threats such as the massive Cannibeetles and Spiders. They keep themselves isolated from the above world, and do not take kindly to strangers who venture into their territory. Their current leader is a 30 year old woman by the name of Qai Lin. Though her appearance contradicts her true age, she shows her strength when it comes to protecting her home land. It will take much work for an outsider to get on her "good side". Description:The City of Shīqù was a large expansion of colonies organized by Earth Benders that would spread across the Earth Kingdom. Though it was not an actual city, the colonies were so tightly bound that it was seen as one large expansive unit under one name. No one knows exactly what happened to cause the colonies to suddenly wish to move underground, but one can guess it had to do with the current nature of the world. Being tired of needless violence and broken nations, the people supposedly warped the world around them; burying themselves deep beneath the bedrock of the lands, creating a series of underground caverns to home their isolated lives. As years passed, a massive swamp formed over their previous place of residence, hiding their underworld caverns from the modern societies. The people, being away from the sun for so long, would begin to change their living styles to survive in their new home. Eating the fungi that grew deep beneath the soil may have sped up their mutation, but in hundreds of years, the entire civilization would mutate to pale skinned, blind Earthbenders that lived off the deepest crevices of the land. Their abnormal appearance may be frightening to others, but they take pride in this, as it keeps them out of their home. There have been few people to travel to the depths and make it back alive, but one were to somehow earn the respect of the Shīqù people they may leave with treasures unknown to current mankind.

| Name: Crimson Cavern Appearance:Nation: Fire Nation Extra: This is the home of a red-scaled dragon, named Vol, a full adult dragon with a avatar's level of mastery in firebending. Not only that, but it's scales and hide are as strong as thick steel, while it has the power to plow through thick solid concrete walls without so much as a headache. It is a good thing that this dragon sleeps often, waking only to leave the cave and hunt. Vol's personality is egotistical and retired... he thinks extremely highly of himself, yet does not wished to be bothered about it. He dislikes relatively everyone who disturbs his slumber with too much chaos in the caverns. His life force is somehow connected to the ruby formation in this cave, and the rubies give off an eerie light to reflect his life force and proximity. If Vol is away the rubies will not glow, but if the dragon is slumbering within his cave the glow will be there. If the dragon is awake in the cave, then the rubies will shine very brightly and shimmer with energy. Description: https://avatarp.rpg-board.net/t64-crimson-cavern-training-flashbackI'm currently already using this place as a landmark for flashback training, so I have a topic (above) where some roleplaying in it can be seen. It's a spiritual cave with one entrance at the side of the mountain, and is extremely extremely deep and vast. One of the notable details of this place is the very large amount of ruby formations littered throughout the entire cave, that have an eerie red glow within them. Another, of course, is the red-scaled dragon that lives here, who's life force powers the strange eerie light, waxing and waning as the dragon's life does. The deeper one goes into the cave, the more erratic the architecture of the cavern becomes, which is actually formed by the dragon and its fire breath, shaping the rock to its own design. Last to note is the nest of the dragon at the very deepest part of the cave—a cave made entirely of the strange ruby. Firebending is twice as strong in this area, and some firebenders may be drawn here for training. | |

| I can't be the only person that has thought about this, but I see no one has purposed it in any avatar sites. Remember at the Invasion of Black Sun, our heroes using their submarines. Well since that day. And being that we are a creative avatar site. My question is why hasn't the water nation made a WATER CITYName: Nureta City/Islands Appearance: - Spoiler:
Nation: Water Nation, But has been built along with the help of the air nations. (Just a tad) Extra: Like i said, Water Nation Water City, but has been built along with the air nation's help explains the Wind Turbines, that will produce the energy, along with hyrdo-power as well. (Only if this is built during Pre or Post Korra Era, If not never mind) The weather would be depending on the seasons, as well as where it is placed. But mostly it would be calm, breezy, sunny, cloudy days. Simple. But during storms, any bad weather. They can power up they cities/islands to close the "glass" around them as seen at the far behind picture of one. And are sunk into the oceans, to protect them by the tides, storms etc. This also can be used as a protection against like if a war happened, they can easily hide down inside the waves with a supply of o2 that would last them about 2-3 years until they have to resurface. Animals- Would be well as i could see, anything type of animal inside of the cites that are used as pets. But for wild it would be seals, whales, those type of animals. Description: Near the Southern Water Tribe and the Eastern Air Temple, lays a group of artificial islands. These islands or so called Nureta Cities, are the wonderful idea of the air nomads and the water benders. That have created a city that is able to live under the tides and over them. They are secluded and at a peaceful point that keeps them from any damages. (Description can be rearranged, in detail, I'm just not sure exactly what you are really looking for.) Thank you for taking your time to read through this idea. Hope this is picked as a new place, and if not. Congratulations to the winner. -Terein. | |

| Name: Spirits forest. Appearance & Description: This enchanted area lies within the most linked area to the spirit world in the Swamps. This part of the swamp is where the spirits once played when they were young. They frolicked and passed on to the spirit world and back and one day they got older and they became guardians of certain places they were not needed to protect the balance of the spirit and real world. They set off leaving behind their mystical garden and playground to other young spirits who one day might become guardians themselves. There are many mysteries in this forest, such as the rumors of there being a guardian of the forest named by humans "The night walker" This creature is said to have the face of a feline and the body of an elk or deer, followed by the feet of what seems to be some type of three toed animal. The forest is very dangerous at night mostly because of wild animals and young pranking spirits. There is also a rumor that The night walker has the ability to grant and steal death. During the night is when it changes into a large monster and walks over the forest itself taking and giving life. This forest is easily accessible through the spirit world, so finding avatars here is not rare. As for regular people they would have to go through a deep forest and more unusual animals then they are used to. The animals found in this part of the forest are only located in this part of the world making many poachers and rare beast captivators come to this forest uninvited by the spirits. The results are always the same, Those who go into the Spirits woods without their consult never come back. The truth behind that statement is people who venture too far into these woods enter the spirit word and are unable to return. They will remain there for the rest of there days unless a kind spirit or an Avatar were to let them out. There are not many major spirits who dwell in these forest but the minor ones that do are powerful yet harmless. They like to play pranks and make the scene seem more complex than it is. Over all these woods are thick and rather large so large they spread far enough to have a part of itself in every nation except meaning this mysterious forest is even found on other lands such as fire nation. The average forest would stop at its limit of land but this forest will simply start to grow on the other side of the body of water and start to grow another forest there. The forest itself has many mysteries one of such is how all or the forest is linked if it transcends large bodies of water. There are several different species of animal and spirits that live in these forest but they are separated by how deep into the forest you go. The first three miles into the forest are inhabited by rare species of animals this layer is where most people disappear, this is also the most dangerous part of the forested area. Afterwards you will reach the playground of the spirits there is no change in the scenery but here or there little crackling spirits can be heard or seen out of the corner of the viewers eyes. Nation:All, and Spirit world. Extra: Animals in the first layer of forest: - Animals:
Horned Lizard SnakeThe Horned Lizard Snake is usually hunted for its scales which are meltable but indestructable by regular means. This material is good for making weapons and can be used for a building material to substitute for any strong metal. The Lizard itself can grow to be 15 feet tall. It is born with a desire to kill and a five row set of sharp teeth to back it up. This monstrosity of an animal is rare even in the forest but it is possible to fun into one. They can run at speeds up to 40 miles per hour and they can jump about ten feet off the ground. They are apex predators with one flaw,they cannot swim. Also the creature isn't very much on the bright side. You can gain a specially made weapon from killing this beast but it must be NPCed and the weapon must still be trained. The only thing is you get to make it out of The scales of a Lizard Snake. Ground ThievesThe Ground Thief stays true to its name it is known to locate people with its ability to sense vibrations while underground. Once located it would wander about under that person making the ground him/her thin and unable to hold the travelers weight as a result they fall into one of the tunnels the monstrous worm has created and is approached by the monster and eaten. The worm itself is 35 feet long but on surface can only lift half of its body into the air. This is one of the more common creatures in the first layer of the forest it lives underground and only surfaces to eat a prey who didn't fall into one of its tunnels. The creature has two 6 foot long pincers on the left and right sides of its face and a mouth in the middle. The mouth is filled with teeth and a ejection pouch. The ejection pouch leads to why this creature is so wanted by anyone who is a poacher or rare animal collector, the worms body fluids are very acidic to everything metal based or rock based. This allows them to dig through earth and can be used by humans in various different ways. If you kill this beast you will gain a gallon of the acid carried in its body. This acid can be bended by a water bender and can melt hard objects like steel metal or any type of earth. The monster must be NPCed to gain this reward and the acid has to be trained as a captain ranked weapon. Any rank can use this acid but it still must be trained at Captain rank. You get one gallon of acid per worm you kill. Various other animalsI left this slot just in case this does get approved if anyone wants to create a creature for this section of the forest they can.
Then there are the spirits in the next layer of forest: - Spirits:

Name: Island of the Gods Appearance:The islands start off on a long strip of land that extends out over the ocean and circles around to connect back to the mainland. Within this circle of extended land is about six or seven large earth structures that resemble towers. The earth is hollowed out and used as different buildings for different reasons. Most are used as meeting places for other people, here they can site see over the ocean, meet with friends from other nations or just enjoy the beauty of the land. Nation:Earth Extra: No animals live here seeing how it is man made and extends over the ocean. people from all over come here to see the sites so many people from all different nations. You may see the random bird or fish in the sea, but nothing out of the normal. Description: A large expansion of of islands that extend out on the sea. Jutting out like large earth towers they are a site to see and attract people from all nations. | |

| Name: Tiānkōng Dǎo Appearance: An island that floats hundreds of feet above the surface of the land, Tiānkōng Dǎo is a massive city, held aloft by both old machinery far beyond understanding, and ancient bending, performed by said machines. The city itself has recently become inhabited by people from all four nations, the reason being that the island moves around the world, on a seemingly predetermined path, which is uncontrollable by people. It is made up of one large island surrounded by seven small surrounding ones. Nation: All, A different nation every week. Extra: - Creatures:
Cǎi NiǎoThe Cǎi Niǎo aren't a native species to Tiānkōng Dǎo, in fact, no one knows where they're from, but they only show up around the island, never venturing away from it, mainly because their nests are found on the seven orbiting islands. They are typically a friendly bird, unless their nest is endangered, but if you manage to sneak to one of the nests and take an egg, and care for it, the Cǎi Niǎo hatched will be loyal only to you, and protect you as best it can. These birds are found to have feathers that come in any color, with no two colors being exactly the same. Generally these birds can grow to have a wingspan of up to 25 feet, categorizing them as a very large bird. They can fire a water-like substance from their mouth at high pressure to hit a target as small as a baby Saber-Tooth moose Lion from up to 10 meters away. They can also forcefully buffet an enemy with their large wings, or knock them over simply from the current they can blast with their wings. Because of the their large size, Cǎi Niǎo have a large appetite, which they fill with bill fulls of shellfish when they can find them, and smaller land creatures when they can't. They have been known to carry off Platypus-Bears when desperate for food. Lóng Xī-Baby and Juvenile -Adult While smaller than the fellow flying creatures that live on the islands around Tiānkōng Dǎo, the Lóng Xī are much quicker, and attack with powerful bite. The leathery flaps between their front and back legs allow them to glide for long distances without wearing themselves out. Their mean's of getting into the sky, is quite unique. Rather than flapping to achieve lift, the Lóng Xī literally run on air. Between each of their toes is a thick flap, similar to those on their sides, and by moving their legs at a pace untraceable by the naked eye, they compress the air under their feet to a level where it acts as a solid, and allows them to run on air. This however, tires them out quite a bit, so they glide most of the time. The nests of Lóng Xī are found underneath the island, and are large holes in the solid rock, which have traces of being made by them chewing through the rock to burrow into it. Inside, their eggs are found, and although hard to get to, they are less often guarded than those of the Cǎi Niǎo, for that reason. At their largest, Lóng Xī are 12 feet long from head to the base of their tail, and their tails, which they use to steer while flying, are often 6 to 8 feet long when fully grown. On land, they can run at around 45 mph when fully grown, and fly at speeds of up to 60 mph, they can also climb near vertical walls even if there is only the slightest of handholds on the wall. While they are not natural enemies to the Cǎi Niǎo, they will fight them for prey if they come upon the same meal at the same time. Aside from their dangerous bite, they also employ the use of a harsh, loud shriek to incapacitate their prey. While they are related to Dragons, tehy cannot breathe fire, but they are just as intelligent and deadly. Winged Winter FerretThe smallest of Tiānkōng Dǎo's flying species, the Winged Winter Ferret is somewhat of a rarity due to it's shyness and habit of only traveling on the ground of the island when snow has fallen. The rest of the time, these elusive creatures get around the island by jumping from roof to roof or by using a series of miniature tunnels that run around the entire island. While not typically fighters, Winged Winter Ferrets have very sharp teeth, and are very intelligent, which shows in their ability to mostly understand human speech. They are also very observant, and come in useful when looking for something hidden. The main reason why they are rarely seen is because they live in the spires of the temple on the Island, and are hard to spot when they leave their hiding place. Red Bat FoxAnother of the smaller creatures living on the island, the Red Bat Fox is just as elusive as the Winged Winter Ferret, but is more easily tracked because of the fact that there is only one place ont eh island where they live. In the temple's lower floors, many of these cuddly creatures live, but because of the fact that they are very good at hiding and keeping quiet, they are difficult to spot even if they are in the same room as you. They have highly advanced hearing and can hear a pin drop from 150 meters away,a s such, they are highly regarded as good guard and tracking animals. Though not as intelligent as Winged Winter Ferrets, they are just as good of a companion if you manage to befriend one. The best way to make one like you is to offer it it's favorite food, but this is difficult, as each one has a particular taste, however, it will always be something found commonly in the world, as they try to find plenty of it when the island lands in each nation.
- People:
People from each of the four nations have taken up residence on the island, creating a thriving new city. There are benders and non-benders alike living there, as well as researchers that are there to investigate the unique life forms there. Most people have taken to cultivating the plants the grow on the island naturally, but there are some who have gone to restoring the temple to it's former glory, and even more who have taken up trading, and use teh fact that the island travels between each of the nations to their advantage. Those who are traders often have goods which are only found in a single nation, and as such, are worth visiting if you are trying to find something rare. Weapon's, foods, and other items are all for sale on the island. Description:Tiānkōng Dǎo is literally where all four styles of bending combine. In the lowest hall on the island, lie the machines which keep the island afloat, moving, and inhabitable. One bending the currents around the island to move it with Airbending, another heating the air around the island to combat the cold temperatures found high in the sky with Firebending, one holding the earthen isle together and keeping the seven surrounding isles in orbit with Earthbending, and one growing the plants and condensing and purifying the water in the clouds in the island's way to keep a constant supply of fresh drinking water. This ancient city originated as a place for the teaching of the most advanced bending forms. It is here where the Guru's of each element resided and taught those who had learned all they could of the four regular elements, and sought a greater challenge and greater power. The machinery held in the bottom of the island was originally built in the bottom of a large rock formation with the purpose of levitating it to create the Island. However, after some time of flying around the four nations, the Island's power source, the presence of Chi itself, was disrupted with the extermination of the Air Nomads at the beginning of the 100 year war, and thus, the island fell to the earth, and was buried for some time by sand. However, recently was discovered in the desert, it had been turned into a giant Buzzard Wasp nest over the years, but it's rediscovery led to the extermination of the nest and the reactivation of the Island's machines, which levitated it once again. Now, it floats around the world once more, and it is now inhabited by people from every nation, as it can sustain a mass amount of people easily. Animals who had seemingly been extinct have returned at the reappearance of the island, most of them being flying animals, and if one it lucky, they might be able to befriend one into becoming their pet. The island itself lands in each nation for a week at a time, then, on it's own accord, rises at noon on the 7th day to fly to the next country in the cycle. Benders can come here to visit the temple at the center of the Island, where they can find the ancient writing of benders past, and form them learn the Advanced forms of their bending. Metal-bending, Crystal-bending, Lightning-bending, Lava-bending, Plant-bending, Blood-bending, Sound-bending, and Void can all be found here, but for one ot enter the chamber where they are held, they must unleash a blast of their high level bending before the doors will open.

Name: The Swamp of Natures Prophets Appearance: The Swamp of Natures Prophets is a swamp almost out of a story book. The swamp's plantlife has grown out of proportion which caused trees to reach hundreds of feet and small flowers growing to ten feet tall. The water covers most land but what it doesnt cover is a thick moss that grows on most everything. One of the most prominent things that are not covered in moss is the village of swamp benders, known as Nature's Prophets. Nation: Earth Nation Extra: Natures Prophets: Nature's Prophets or more commonly known as swamp benders, use their ability to plant and water bend to form the swamp into their own way. They are commonly only captain in rank except for their leader who is General in rank. They use their ability to plant bend to cause their swamp to grow to huge proportions and also increase the area the swamp spans. They are commonly tricksters and despise anyone destroying their swamp. Their are excited to see another water bender and are friendly to most earth benders. They are neutral to Air and Fire but play the most tricks on those from those nations. They are cunning and are able to use the swamp as both a quick means of travel and as a weapon to their enemies.

| Name: Tian Guang Ye – The Frozen Fortress Appearance:- Image:
- Description:
On the far north of the Earth Kingdom, directly south from the northern part of the Water nation lie the great frozen mountains. They got their name from the everlasting snow that is present around them. On the edge of the tallest of them, made of strong black stone and covered with layers of thick ice, lies a fortress. It’s walls are built into the frozen stone of the mountain itself, with only several turrets being on the outside. The only entrance into the fortress itself is trough giant black gates. Only one path leads to the said entrance and it is marked with flags with the fortress symbol on them.
On the inside of the mountain lies a whole city. All of the buildings are made of rocks and connected with various staircases and bridges that tie together different levels of the area. It is full of wide tunnels that are connected in strange ways, so it is almost impossible for a newcomer to navigate on his own. Many parts of the fortress are connected with lifts and a well developed mining cart trains that go through several times a day. The area spreads widely underground, making for a spacious living space.
The entire place is ruled by the Fortress Master, appointed by the Earth King himself. His building is located in the center of the mountain, not too far away from the black gates.
The place itself is known as the mining center of the world, as the mining if very well developed here. Many mining entrances are scattered around the area, but the entry is only allowed to the miners or people with special permission. Leaving the fortress is regulated by the law. Constant exiting of the area is only allowed to the people who are trading the mined goods and transporting them to other parts of the Kingdom. Everyone else must stay at fortress at all times, unless for critical situations. For every day that a person works in the mines, he or she gets a certain number of hours (1 for males, 2 for females) added to their “hour-count”. The people can spend those hours at any time they wish, and they allow them to spend some time outside of the fortress, on fresh air. For someone to have their day qualify for this reward, he or she must work for 12 consecutive hours, and they are entitled to 1 hour lunch-break. This fortress is also know for mining gold and various kinds of diamonds.
This place is often visited by people who want to earn some quick cash. Because of the value of metals and stone found in here, the payment is rather good. The only problem is that once someone is contracted as a miner, he must spend at least 5 years in the place, and during that time he obliges to all the laws or the area like any other citizen born here. The only time when the fortress admits everyone into its lairs is at times of war. It is known as the “Unconquerable Fortress” as it has always stood strong before enemy lines and had never fallen into conquerors hands.
The fortress is the place where some of the best Earthbenders and Icebenders come to train and transfer their knowledge to people willing to learn. This is why this place is often filled with people seeking masters to teach them how to improve their skills.
Nation: Earth Description: Tian Guang Ye is a large fortress located on the northernmost part of the Earth Kingdom. Its walls are built into the frozen mountains. The place itself is known as the mining center of the Kingdom, and is full of crooked corridors that are hard to get trough without a guide. Extra: - Animal Species:
Tremor Worm: http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs50/f/2009/282/6/f/Storm_Slayer__Tremor_Worm_by_zeo_x.jpgOne of the most dangerous creatures. Unlike other worms this one has a firm body, rock strong and a set of huge teeth. It is known for attacking the miners that accidentally stumble upon one of their nests. They can reach 7m in length. Snow Mole: http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/009/f/4/snow_mole_by_fetherhd-d36tu2o.jpgBlind creatures that were tamed by the citizens of the fortress and now help them in digging and extracting materials. They mostly travel solo so they are easy to capture. The size varies between 2-3m. Giant Scorpion: http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/082/3/8/scorpion_like_thing_____by_fictionalme-d3c7pq1.jpgThese creatures use their color and body texture to hide around mining sites and grab less careful miners. Their pincers don’t contain poison but are still a fearsome weapon. They can reach the size of 3m.

| I feel I need to post my reasons why I didn't or did vote for a place:
I did not vote for Riri's, for her place was too boring and too lacking of uniqueness. It's a beautiful place, but sounds just like an average place.
Raizo's place came in second for me, for it wasn't too fantastical, yet it wasn't too bland. i was only a little irked by the choice of creatures in the place, yet it was still a very good choice. I would have voted for it if I hadn't preferred another so much. So, I did not vote for it.
I did not vote for Terein's because of the technology involved. The reason waterbender probably haven't built island cities is because they didn't have the capability nor supplies to randomly bring into the ocean. Wrong era, too futuristic.
I did not vote for Mori's because though it was a good place, it was simply too close to the Foggy Swamp we already have here.
I did not vote for Soul's because of how overly fantastical it was. I looked at that incredibly thin strip of land that's supposed to extend over the ocean stably without a single column supporting it... and I ask how. Plus, those towers simply look too futuristic that you gotta wonder how you build such tall towers of metal, even with metalbenders. So again, wrong era, too futuristic.
I did not vote for BlackJacket's for the same reason I did not vote for Mori's... it's even closer to the Foggy Swamp, just enlarged.
I did not vote for Turles because I believe his place is... boring. A fancy inn is what it is. And it seems that if you go there, you'll be alone.
That leaves one; I voted for Fruity's. It's not overly fantastical, yet it's such a unique and amazing place. The species are believable for an Avatar setting, the fortress itself is believable to create. And she did a good job describing the place. | |

| Voting is now closed! thank you everyone for submitting ideas and voting for us. Everyone is a winner, we will be adding each entry that fits the rules. so each of you will have your creation posted on the site. However someone came out on top as the overall winner, with the most popular location. And our winner is....Fruity!!! *Claps* Your gift will be posted below. Winters BlessingA bottle that can be stored in a bag, tired to a belt or worn as a necklace. Inside of this bottle is a snowflake that never melts, it floats and swirls around inside of the bottle as if by magic. This is said to be a mysterious snowflake, that as long as the owner has it on their body, their ice can not be melted by anything but lava. This includes normal heat, fire, water or such. Other water benders can not take control of their ice or make it turn into water. So everyone give her some love! ^.^ thank you all for participating. And remember the festival begins at midnight tonight! So everyone get your topics ready, and have a wonderful time! | |
