Lavabending
Skill Name: Lavabending
Parent Skill: Earthbending
Description: Lavabending is the ability of an Earthbender to create molten lava from solid rock and manipulate it's current. This ability is quite hard for most earthbenders to even learn, let alone master, though benders with mixed Fire nation and Earth kingdom heritage have a closer affinity to this style. Lava bending has historically been practiced by avatars, but had very rarely been seen in common benders. The motions and techniques used for this type of bending are very similar to that of sandbending. Increasing your rank with this skill costs double what it normally would. Taking a direct lavabending attack from an Experienced or Veteran bender will usually result in death or a near death experience. Lavabending Attacks have a one post cooldown after use.
Skill Ranks:
- Rank 1 (Rookie). A rookie lavabender can bend large amounts of lava that is present in an area. They can push and pull decent sized clumps of lava, and even create orbs of lava which can be launched. (Considered to be a Rank 3 attack)
- Rank 2 (Experienced). An experienced lavabender can use their ability to unearth lava deep underground, and bring it to the surface for bending purposes. They can manipulate even larger amounts of lava, and produce waves large enough to fossilize entire buildings. (Considered to be a Rank 4 attack)
- Rank 3 (Veteran). A veteran lavabender is considered to be elite among all other earthbenders. They can turn stone to lava without needing any pre-existing lava to bend, and can cause volcanos to erupt single-handedly. (Considered to be a Rank 5 attack)
Strong against: Earth and Plant
