About This Quiz

"The Legend of Korra" has given us so much: a strong female lead who's also a woman of color, fight scenes that are thrillingly choreographed and animated, amazing stories about the human spirit's capacity to change and grow and, of course, Korrasami (Korra + Asami 😍😍😍!) .

But there's more to "The Legend of Korra" than dope characters or beautiful animation. There's also the complex mythology of element bending, which is as fascinating as anything served up by the "Harry Potter" or "His Dark Materials" series. In this world, certain people are able to manipulate the elements of air, fire, water and earth. Known as "airbenders," "waterbenders," "firebenders" and "earthbenders," these warriors blend their bending abilities with killer martial arts skills, using their powers for both good and evil (as you do 😜).

So, what kind of bender would YOU be? That depends on your personality. When there's a sudden change of plans, do you go with the flow or throw a snit fit? Are you good at asking for what you want, or do you tend to beat around the bush? Do your ideas come in flashes of brilliance, or do you succeed because you work hard AF? If you want to find out what kind of bender you are fr, your only choice is to take this quiz!
