how do you think the avatar state works because it's only activated subconsciously when the avatar is in life-threatening danger/under extreme emotional duress. is raava in there weighing the odds on whether a deadly combat encounter will result in fatality or enriching character development? was she also super pissed when appa was muzzled and couldnt help but make her anger known? or are the ghosts of avatars past holding council on whether or not to intervene?

I mean they explain in the show that controlling the avatar state is about being able to open all seven of your chakras and that the avatar state can be activated without being able to be fully controlled by the avatars themselves when their energy is unbalanced. like I honestly don’t really have anything to say regarding this topic that isn’t already stated in the show so I guess you could just rewatch “the guru”?

still thinking about max both inflicting & receiving violence through an empire in order to become someone who can command respect within it

[max-nolastname]

black sails characters and the dnd classes they would be:

flint: fighter/sorcerer (draconic bloodline) with high wisdom and charisma. able to pass as human in "civilized" society, but has latent magical powers from an ancient dragon ancestor that manifests in the strangest things...eyes that see through the dark...summoning storms...enchanting the minds of others to do his bidding...

madi: paladin with an oath of devotion, but she doesn't answer to a higher power, or a crown or some nebulous greater good. she answers to a chorus of voices...multitudes...of men, women and children bound by chains across the world....she is devoted to them she answers to them

anne: barbarian. when she channels her rage into fights, she deals serious critical damage to her ops. able to take an insane amount of damage to protect the ones she loves and still be up standing and fighting.

jack: bard (college of valor), through and through. hoards the stories of legendary pirates. obsessed with putting himself up there among the greats. loves to Perform. silvery barbs. iykyk

max: mastermind rogue. the tenants of a rogue is to evade and hide, remain unseen, gather information on enemies and allies in order to figure out how they tick and exploit their weaknesses. she is not fighting on the frontlines she is the shadows she is in the walls of your house waiting to strike

charles: human fighter

billy: human fighter

silver: an npc with no special powers or talents or backstory, his name randomly generated using an NPC fantasy name table. He was created by the DM for no other purpose than to bring the party together and deliver the Inciting Incident/Call to Adventure in the form of a complicated treasure map. quite literally sidelined (see: shackled to a chair) in the first couple sessions, and is only brought back by the DM to add mischief and complications to the plot. but there is something so charming and endearing about this npc that the party can't help but have him tag along on their adventures. John Silver soon becomes integral to the campaign because the player characters want him to be. John Silver the NPC is a reflection of what different players want him to be. He is a trusted partner, co-conspirator, love interest, damsel in distress...a Pirate King to inspire their allies and strike fear in the hearts of their enemies. He is fleshed out and made real by the real human players around him. The players are extremely fearful of john silver dying, but what they don't know is that the DM has no plans on killing off John Silver! The DM has already written john silver into the finale of the campaign, and the story doesn't work without him, so.....

[manabombs]

this is how it happened trust me

[gaysails]

we used to have max nolastname on television.....

[blacksailspolls]

i've seen discussions about ""john silver"" 's name & flint's borrowed one & max having nolastname (though less frequently than the prev two) but not a lot about madi's. sometimes i see tags that include "scott" as her last name. so. to you, what is her name? thoughts in the notes welcome!

[celeste-i]

max nolastname and John silver (fake name) are twins of not caring about the wider world beyond their own survival (and of their loves) because the world has kicked them far too many times for them to think they can change it. max being a slave and the daughter of her master, then subjected to the brutal life of a sex worker serving pirates. silver being [REDACTED]. they both believe there will always be a boot on the necks of the weak, that it's simply how the world is. destroying England will only allow for a boot of a different color to take its place. they will keep their heads down and nod and make a show of obeying so they are trusted and liked by the boot, while plotting for their own survival in secret. the devil you know, etc. they are both incredibly cynical and misanthropic. they detest bloodshed not for its cruelty but for how it stirs people up and unsettles what could be a peaceful (in their worldview) existence.

max, once she experienced having every ounce of control taken away from her, entrenched herself in a position where she was in complete control of her own fate, one where she ruled from the shadows but still appears to obey the boot. even if it eats away at her, even if it takes everything personal from her. unfortunately for silver, his rise to power (and in opposition to the boot) was not his own doing and is a prison for him as much as it is his lifeline. as a disabled man, he would have no option of survival under the boot, so he has to live in this undead prison Billy has crafted for him which stands in direct opposition to how he believes the world to be. and in many ways he views flint as the new boot, or at least allows him to take that position in his mind. silver obeys him most of the time, nods and keeps his head down until he plots for his (and madi's) survival

and they're both so good at this trickery that you forget who they are. you're told in the first episode what type of people they are -- opportunists, through and through. but they're likable. you want to believe them to be different. but they arent. max doesn't oppose her former allies being hanged; she just thinks it's bad for morale and thus ruins her business interests. silver doesn't care about the war; he suggested it only so the maroons wouldn't kill them and then ended the war once he realised the danger inherent to him and Madi. the rest of Nassau and the rest of the slaves toiling in the new world are of little concern to either one of them. what fascinating characters

[max-nolastname]

max no last name and louis de pointe du lac and their white blond bombshell exes ... that had a heavy hand in "creating" them ... that they can't seem to get out of their system ... that they are still so deeply in love with despite the pain and betrayal
