Denied CloudBending

Janny · Jan 16, 2015

Element: Air and/or Water (Choose in the comments)
Description: In the show, it showed us some moments where Aang and Katara have been CloudBending. Like that time at the beginning of season 3 where Aang was surrounding Appa in a sphere of clouds because Sokka wanted to cloak themselves from any trouble when entering the fire nation.(Sorry, i couldn't find a GIF for this example.)
How to CloudBend: I know that clouds are like 150 blocks high from the ground, but the CloudBender should still be able to use the cloud to bend it from the ground. This is how the suggestion for CloudBending moves should go: you simply look at a cloud from above, they shift and left click to bring a bit of the cloud towards you and then let go of shift and the cloud will stay on the ground, then with the moves that are suggested will do the rest.

I'm not exactly sure how you'd bend minecraft clouds... They aren't entities that you can direct or even particles.. They're just there!

Oh my goodness, flight isn't as rare as we think it is!!! Just nobody was smart enough to use it like the old airbenders!!!

It may be old fashion airbending, but its still airbending.

I did NOT say CloudBending was for flight. Im just suggesting a sub-element for Air and/or Water. It will be nicer for Airbenders because Airbending still doesn't have a sub-element. And NO, suffocation is NOT a sub-element.

Airbending has Spiritual Projection, Flight, and Breathbending...That's three subelements

Your right, suffocation isn't. Breathbending is.

I was talking about in the ProjectKorra plugin. Spiritual Projection isn't something you can bend, flight isn't even bending, and Breathbending IS Airbending saying Breathbending isn't Airbending is like saying Firebreath is a sub-element to Firebending. ProjectKorra (Spirit) isn't even out so why are you talking about Airbenders already having Spiritual Projection, and there are no moves in the plugin for Airbending that have to do with your breath.

Nope. It's bending different gases so therefore not the same. It is airbending because it is a subelement.

Because the permission node is already there.

Suffocate.

MistPhizzle made a thread about "What a Sub Element Is"
http://projectkorra.com/forum/threads/the-official-projectkorra-set-of-subelements.1800/
Air has Flight and Spiritual Projection

That is All

Simplicitee · Jan 17, 2015

Well I consider Breathbending a subelement

DanStryder · Jan 17, 2015

I wasn't saying that your suggestion was for flight, I was just clearing up technicalities. Also I wouldn't say breath bending is a sub as it's still just air that's being bent, flight is different to generic air bending, like fire is different to lightning generation.

Doesn't matter if we have three subelements, gotta remember that projectkorra didn't make the show.
It doesn't choose what is canon and what is not, and from the looks of this, it is canon which gives a higher probability of it happening.

And i don't think it matters what you consider to be a subelement @White_Knight28

As for the idea, I don't think it's really needed considering you haven't stated any use for it what so ever, just that we should have it which is a bit unnecessary unless what your aiming towards is it creating a AOE of particles to blind your opponents which i think would be cool to look at, but would it really be needed?
I mean, The air particles as is already blind players enough :3
