Introduction:
Welcome to The Last Airbender Factions: the Continual War! This role playing experience takes place within the confines of the Avatar:the Last Airbender universe and uses the same premise and lore that was established in the show. This RP also has the distinction of being my first fantasy/medieval style experience, so this will be a learning experience for all of us. I am sure that,especially during the beginning, that it will be rough around the edges. But I am sure that if we put enough dedication into it, we can ensure that it goes as neatly as possible. In this role play experience you will be the ruler of a city or many of them, and now it is up to you to create the Empire you desire. From political maneuvering to military invasions, how you achieve your destiny is all up to you.
Scenario:
The Year 100 AG. A year, like every in the past century, that was to start off in bloodshed.
With the disappearance of the Avatar, the Fire Nation continued it's campaign to bring the other remaining nations to heel. For decades, they continued an endless onslaught on the Earth Kingdom, and nearly eliminated the Southern Waterbenders. Now, with Sozin's Comet returning once more, and the Avatar still missing, Firelord Ozai put his master plans into motion.
But even without the Avatar, there were many who moved to stop him. The secretive Order of the White Lotus worked long and hard to gain influence within the upper ring of Fire Nation society, for they had knowledge that would change the fate of the world. On the first day of the eight month, the moon would eclipse the sun and all Firebenders would be rendered powerless. In was within that eight minute timespan that the order chose to strike. And thus, Firelord Ozai and many of his high ranking officials were betrayed by Lotus agents and killed.
The year had not been going completely well for the Fire Nation. For one, their assault on Omashu failed, and the kingdom used the turmoil to cement it's position in the west. Likewise, the attempt to destroy the Northern Water Tribe was also met with disaster. A rogue low-tier commander by the name of Zhao botched the assault to fulfill his "destiny" and without adequate support was cut down by the enemy. What this destiny was or why this Zhao risked the assault is unknown, but the results were devastating and the Northern Campaign was defeated. In Ba Sing Se, the Fire Nation Army was able to breach the outer wall of the city, but was met with heavy resistance and required reinforcements by the time Ozai was killed.
Still, Despite the success of the White Lotus, they were unable to install a Firelord that met their interests and Ozai's daughter Azula ascended the throne on account that her elder brother and uncle were still banished and searching for the avatar.
Azula was at first determined to continue her father's plans and crush the Earth Kingdom, however, Lotus members still sprinkled her command and she risked meeting the same fate as Ozai. Thus, War Minister Qin convinced her that a cease fire would allow a reconstruction of both the military and the civilian bureaucracy.
Now two years later, the world stands at an uneasy peace. Azula managed to purge her ranks and now holds complete control of her administration. Armies across the world are rebuilding and rearming and all the destruction caused by the war is being fixed. The Southern Water Tribe has centralized, and even the desolate wilderness of Air Nomad territory is being settled upon by refugees from all nations. But it will not last.
In Ba Sing Se, the Dai Li have the Earth King by a golden noose and their control over the city is finalized. The former Fire Nation colony of Garzai has rose in mass rebellion and broken from Azula's control, while reports of the Firelord's erratic behavior become more common place in backroom talks.
The Avatar has still not returned, and the clock is nearing the return of war.

Infrastructure: The Foundation of any worthwhile city or glorious Empire, be wise on what you buy and what you plan to do. Things you should know:
1. GPs mean Gold Pieces. This has been simplified to more manageable numbers to help you guys out, they don't really mean only one gold piece.
2. You pay up front and wait for the building or unit to build.
3. To simplify things and prevent rapid expansion, buying only occurs every two months. Every in-between month we still have random events. It takes time to collect taxes here!
4. Your amount of production is tied to your cities Gold production. Lets say my city produces 100 GPs and I want to buy units that are worth 150 GPs all together. You can't. That 100 GP represents how theoretically big your city is and that shows it isn't a major player in the world stage.
