Avatar: Bending World
by soso380
Avatar: Bending World brings the bending arts from the Avatar: The Last Airbender series into Minecraft, with four elements that each open through a skill tree.
What it does
Players open the bending abilities through a skill tree that appears with the P key, which is the default binding. Skill points are needed to do this, and each element has its own requirements to obtain them, tied to that element's activities. Once an element is chosen, it comes with a passive ability that applies from the start.
The mod is still in early development, and its mechanics may change. Airbenders must jump to build their power, Waterbenders must spend time underwater, Earthbenders must break earthbendable blocks, and Firebenders must defeat hostile mobs. Air benders take no fall damage, water benders swim faster, earth benders take less damage while standing on earthbendable blocks, and fire benders are not immune to fire or lava damage.
The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.21.1, with 1.21 also listed among the game versions that have files. It needs both the client and the server. Its files are released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Four elements
Air, water, earth and fire each carry their own abilities, items and creatures, drawn from the television show.
Skill tree
A skill tree opens from the P key and holds the bending abilities a player has gained.
Element passives
Each element grants a passive ability once chosen, and each one has its own conditions for gaining skill points.
Command-based progression
Server operators can give skill points or bend all four elements at once through commands.
