Elemental Benders in Pathfinder?


Homebrew and House Rules


So I'm a fan of Avitar: The Last Air Bender and Legend of Kora, and I was wondering how easy it would be to make elemental benders from those shows in Pathfinder. This question has probably been asked before, but I'm asking now. Would it be easier to make a whole new class or an archetype? Either way, I was thinking it should be based off the monk, since in the shows the style used for each element mimic martial arts styles. Any thoughts on this subject would help.


Qinggong Monk is probably the closest you'll get to my understanding. Just choose appropriate abilities based on which element you bend.

Though if you wanted a powerful bender with more widespread effects - I'd guess a Sorcerer or Oracle would fit.

By the way, I'm a GM in case anyone was wondering if I was a player or not.

I'm looking at it right now, thank you.


So you can run a whole campaine of benders!?!?
Where do you live and can I join? (1/2 joking)

Search the Conversions board, I think there's been some work done on that idea.

I also remember seeing a fan made D20 Avatar, lesse... here. See if it helps.

I quote this from a similar thread I posted awhile back when Nickelodeon released the Legend of Korra sneak peak.

Haha! Only one of my players wants to play one. He got the idea when I was talking about the oriental nation of my setting. After giving it some thought, I think it would fit well with my setting. And if you live anywhere close to Huntington, WV then you can join.

It won't let me view the document.


Ok, I looked at the Element Master, and the Chakra Level Kata or what ever has me a little confused. More accurately, I just don't understand it. Also, it seems like it is set up like an alternate Monk class, like the Ninja and samurai, than an archetype.
