Minecraft: The Last Airbender is a Minecraft plugin for a Bukkit server. It is designed for Survival Multiplayer, and allows players to choose an element to bend as the benders do in the world of Avatar (the stage of Avatar: The Last Airbender and its sequel The Legend of Korra).
Some quick notes: I will warn you that you will not be able to do everything they do in the show. There are limitations both in Minecraft and in Bukkit that prevent such extravagance. In the details of each discipline you can see exactly what you can do. As such, the description of the bending disciplines is a little altered to reflect their role in the world of Minecraft: The Last Airbender.
Features
- Play as a bender and choose which type you would like to be.
- Battle other users and see who is the best of the best.
- Compatible with WorldGuard, Factions, PreciousStones, GriefPrevention, and CreeperHeal. (Many more plugins will be added to this list)
- Nothing is required client-side
- Permissions support!
Bending
Users may bend water, earth, fire, air, or can go with being a chiblocker.. You may pick which type of bender you would like to be with the command: /bending choose [water/air/earth/fire/chi]. You may only choose one, with the exception of the Avatar, and you may never change it so be careful in your decision.
Waterbending
- Specializes in maneuverability in and on the water.
- Oceans are perfect for water benders.
- Techniques range from shooting water that do damage, freezing lakes, or even pushing enemies back with powerful waves.
- This bending style is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Water bending opens up many options in bodies of water that are otherwise closed to the other disciplines.
Earthbending
- Specializes in manipulating the earth around them.
- Any area which contains land is perfect for earth benders.
- They have the abilities to pull columns straight up from the earth, drill their way through any mountain and launch themselves through the air.
- This bending style, like water bending, is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Earth benders do not take fall damage as long as they land on the ground.
Firebending
- Specializes on destruction and incineration.
- Any environment, besides on any bodies of water, is perfect for them.
- They may create rings of fire on the ground, shoot lines of fire, and even create exploding fireballs.
- This bending style is pure offensive, and very little mobility/defense.
- Fireball is the only ability they may use that does not require any solid ground beneath them.
Airbending
- Specializes in mobility & defense.
- The land is the ideal place for airbenders, although they may also bend over the water.
- Bending air allows you to use wind to blast things away, forming a shield of air around you, or using a tornado to lift you, or your opponent, off of their feet.
- This bending style is perfect for pacifists and explorers for they lack any raw damage output, but make up for it with their utility and speed.
- Choosing air as your element increases your overall speed, decreases the rate of hunger and disables fall damage.
Chi Blocking
- Specializes in bare handed combat.
- Move faster, jump higher, take less fall damage.
- Can block someones chi, stopping them from Bending for a short period of time.
- Abilities range from Higher Jumps, Faster Punches, and Paralysis of enemies.
HELP! It's not working!
This is a Bukkit plugin, not a single player mod. It will never be a single player mod. Go to the Bukkit Wiki to set up your own server. You can play on it just like you would single player, and it requires nothing more than setting it up.
If anything is not working, look around for a development build of Bending.
Development progress
School has picked back up, so plugin development will be very intermittent at best. I've done away with the ordered releases, and will most likely be keeping 1.0.7 the "official" version until I release it as 1.1.0. It's a jump, I know, but if I were forced to stick to a schedule, the plugin would never get done. This is because there are things I like coding and want to code now, and I shouldn't have to wait just because I have something else planned for the version.
As such, there is no ETA on the release. The dev build will of course be updated as I add features, but 1.1.0 will only be officially released when everything is completed, and that could take a very long time.

Some FAQs: Will there be bloodbending? -No. That would be OP in any fashion that's in line with the series, and worthless in any other fashion.
Will there be metalbending? -Earthbenders can already bend ores. If you're talking about metal blocks, if someone built an iron block there's no way you're bending that - way too abusable. If you're talking about controlling someone with metal armor on, that's far too OP. So, no.
Where's the air scooter?!?! -Replaced with the functionality of the airbender's passive, Tornado and/or AirBubble
Firebenders need lightning! -Yes, they do. But Minecraft makes it come from the sky, and I don't know how I feel about that. Also, lightning in Minecraft is a bit on the OP side.
I'm working on a waterbender passive right now, too.
@yannkwb
That's not my plugin doing that.
@np98765
Thanks!
@yannkwb
Since v1.0.2, fireball has a 1 second cooldown. It's also compatible with creeperheal.
@Rock2243
I will not be adding bloodbending. There's no way I can make it true to the series and not OP. I'm not sure how I feel about earthquake. I'd love to give firebenders lightning, but lightning only comes from the sky and that would be too weird. I didn't forget about air scooter - tell me it's functionality over the other airbending abilities. Between airbubble, tornado and the airbender's passive, it has no use :P A lot of work for something purely aesthetic.
@machado197328
Permission support is technically there for v1.0.3, but I was running into problems with getting permissions to work (not with my plugin, just permissions to work in general). Expect full permission support in v1.0.4. I don't know that I'll add a cooldown to abilities, that way too against the nature of the series. v1.0.3 does have worldguard support with the PvP flag. Just make your regions 20 bigger than needed to ensure outside bending doesn't get in. I'm fully aware of PatchTheEarth's issue, I'll be rewriting it soon.
@ThePraetorian
Wave hitting yourself is a feature, not a bug. Use it to surf. EarthBlast should hit yourself, if you're not careful you should get smacked with your hunk of rock. EarthBlast takes some finesse, it needs a straight line from its source to its target. If it hits anything, it breaks. That's normal. Try raising an EarthColumn and pulling from there. Tornado will not pick up other players, that would be OP. It will knock them back in a similar fashion to AirShield, though. It does work very well on mobs though.
@wafffllesss
No. You gotta just stick with Tornado :P
Bug: Erm there seems to be some sort of bug that the first word i say for example: "Hi",it will keep repeating whenever i try to say something else like Yo wazzup it will b changed to "Hi".
This looks like an amazing plugin. :)
Good job, and kudos to you orion!
Suggestions: Fire bending is abit overpowered considering that the fireballs can be spammed and used to wreck places....maybe you could add a cooldown or a config that toggles stuff.
Suggestions water blood bending- levitate people and mobs for health cost/ earth earthquake- random height pillars shoot up in the direction the bender is facing in maybe 3 wide path/ fire lightning/ air air scooter-HOW U FORGET/
THIS PLUGIN IS FREAKING AWESOME
i think i love you D:
looking forward for start using it in my server, once it have permissions on it, the theme of my server has always been Avatar, even make some skills with magicspells, some very similar to those. it was strange that took so long to we see a bending plugin in here, but i did not expect PERFECTION.
even so.. if you're already taking suggestions, i'd like to make a few
- one permission for each skill ( if possible the system of MagicSpells, ''the spells copies'' that you can configurate a new skill (just with other name and cooldown in case) from the current skills.
- configurable cooldown
-didn't really tested, but i think that it's not compatible with protection plugins( firebending and earthbending skills)
- the earthbending skills, the ones who make collumns, i know that you tried to reduce that map damage with that skill that reverts it, but it isn't really working, there's always players who want to fuck it all, if you could set up some sort of cooldown for these too would be nice ( a long one, lets say 2 or 3 minutes) after that time it could vanish or go back to normal.
thxx for reading :D and renember that i love you '='
Found this, and after about an hour of testing out every ability possible, love it.
Just a couple comments :P - Water AND Earth Benders have a chance of hitting themselves when they use either Wave, or Earth Blast. I found EarthBlast VERY buggy, sometimes breaking without moving (and WaterManipulation sometimes doesn't work at all. There WAS smoke, I swear.) - Fire Benders and they're fireballs is a WAY too OPed, and it be nice if they have to, 'focus' like Water Benders (or have some form of 'source' like torches/fires...) - I tried using the Airbending Tornado, on one of my friends while he was AFK. Nothing happened, except that he move about one block invontarily.
Sorry for the criticism, but I honestly love the plugin. Waterbending is my favorite :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
-Bacon
EDIT: Is there anyway to congifure ANY of this?
What about a "double jump" to launch the air bender? =]
A bunch of replies. Again, permissions and worldguard support will be coming eventually. I've been handling bugs and other important things first in the beta.
v1.0.2 is up on my site. I'll be uploading it here sometime today, too.
Thanks for the feedback!
@nhoclesnar
AirBlasts do put out fire, and as of v1.0.1 Wave puts out fire. In v1.0.2, WaterWall also puts out fire.
The other bug with not removing abilities will be fixed soon too.
@SyTeck
v1.0.2 has a 1 second cooldown to fireballs now. And all classes already have a damaging ability - EarthBlast, WaterManipulation and AirSwipe.
@yannkwb
I'm working on a fix. v1.0.2 has the sand earthbenders create upon landing reverted back after 3 seconds.
@Valcorb
That's because "/bending" by itself isn't a command. Download the latest version, it's more forgiving.
Getting error when using /bending:

This is the very first time i comment in a bukkit plugin page. But, oh my god, you did an excelent job in here my friend, amazing plugin!
Could u make the earthbenders skills temporary as it can be used to grief...other than that its a awesome plugin and the passive skill of earthbender tempo too :D
Haha, nice plugin! I love it, but it is kinda difficult to use sometimes, but its still awsome, keep on the good work! :D
A little suggestion, could you make a skill that takes direct damage to all the classes except fire benders? Because fire benders can do direct damage with fireball, that makes them kinda overpowered. And maybe add a 1 second cooldown for fireballs.
@nhoclesnar
Are you op on the server you are testing this on b/c in the description it said
Each and every one of these disciplines is available to players, though you can only choose one, and you can never change it - so give it careful consideration!
so you shouldn't be able to change your bending normally
Yes I would love permission too, and using skills consumes exp or hunger would be really great. I prefer exp tho.
@nhoclesnar
Air benders can put out first using air blast/swipe although water i'm not too sure about.
Permissions? this and i will get and love
I found a bug where you can use do multiple bending. If you choose fire bending and bind manipulate fire into your 1st slot, then you choose air bending and put tornado into your second slot, you can use both of them. Btw why can't fire be put out by air and water? That's a big advantage for fire benders.
I just went on your server, it was a fantastic experience. I would like to suggest though, that there be an auto-regeneration system for the environment after a set amount of ticks to prevent earthbenders from making random pillars and having waterbenders take away chunks of the water. Also if scrolls could be added (maybe a piece of paper, just renamed) that would be great so a new comer doesn't already have something as hard as waterwall. But over all this is a great plugin and once I get my server up and running I'll probably run it :)
its really nice, and with an world editing plugin its possible to make a arena and fight eachother..
