A set of four props designed to appear like relics for the show "Avatar: The Last Airbender". They consist of Aang's Airbending Staff, Roku's Headpiece, Kyoshi's Fans, and Kuruk's Polar Bear Skin.
Origin[]
Avatar: The Last Airbender, aired from 2005 to 2008, is an animated television series that aired for three seasons on Nickelodeon. The series was created and produced by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. Avatar's setting is in an Asian-influenced world of martial arts and elemental manipulation. Avatar: The Last Airbender was popular with both audiences and critics, even outside its 6–11-year-old demographic. Avatar has been nominated for and won several awards, including the Annual Annie Awards, the Genesis Awards and the primetime Emmy Awards, among others. It also led to a live-action movie as well as a sequel series, The Legend of Korra.
The series follows the adventures of the main protagonist Aang and his friends, who must save the world by defeating Fire Lord Ozai and ending the destructive war with the Fire Nation. As the last Airbender and the Avatar, Aang had to master the remaining three elements before summer's end. The entire series takes place in the span of nine months.
Effects[]
Each artifact allows the user to bend a different element. The element the user can bend is based on the chosen object's owner's natural element. Aang's Staff allows Airbending abilities, Roku's Headpiece allows Firebending, Kyoshi's Fans allow Earthbending, and Kuruk's Polar Bear Skin allows Waterbending. The artifacts work while being held and for five minutes after letting go.
When all four artifacts are in close proximity to each other (approximately within 5 yards), use of one of the artifacts allows the user to unlock that element's second stage of bending. Use of Aang's Staff allows the ability to fly without the need for any tools, Roku's Headpiece allow the user to bend lightning, Kyoshi's Fans allow the user to bend metal, and Kuruk's Polar Bear Skin allows the user to bend the blood inside of people.
Use of all four artifacts at one time is not recommended, as the strain of attempting to use all of them results in death.
Status[]
In late October 2016, Agents Megan Wilcoxson and Garrett Scott went to Atlanta, Georgia after reports of people at a convention being able to bend the elements. However, they ran into the Sailor Moon Fans, who attacked the pair. Despite the trouble, they managed to snag Aang's Staff and Kuruk's Polar Bear Skin, while they lost Roku's Headpiece and Kyoshi's Fans.
Roku's Headpiece and Kyoshi's Fans are still unaccounted for.
