![]() ![]() With the rise of the Avatar, lion turtles denounced their roles as the protectors of mankind and bestowers of bending with energybending. In the era before the Avatar, the lion turtles were the only known practitioners of energybending, using it to bestow upon humans the ability to bend one of the four elements as a means to protect themselves while they hunted in the Spirit Wilds and withdrew it after they returned to the settlements on their backs, as bending was not permitted there. In addition, even though mastering the four elements is a necessity for the Avatar, learning energybending is optional. This bending art can be perilous to the user, which is why so few have ever used it. The capabilities of energybending are not well understood what is known is that bending a person's life energy can impart them with knowledge instantly, remove their bending completely, or restore it. Later, Korra used it to return Lin Beifong's ability to earthbend, to restore the bending of Amon's non-Triad victims, and to stop Kuvira's spirit energy cannon. After the Equalists' leader, Amon, severed Korra's bending, save for her airbending, Aang's spirit used energybending to restore her ability to bend all elements and passed on the knowledge to her. By 100 AG, there was only one lion turtle left with the ability to energybend who later passed down the ability to Avatar Aang, who used it to remove Phoenix King Ozai's firebending and, twenty-eight years later, Yakone's ability to waterbend. ![]() However, after the lion turtles renounced their roles as protectors of mankind, energybending was no longer used to grant people bending, and the knowledge of energybending was almost completely lost. īefore the Avatar came into existence and the separation of the four nations, the lion turtles bent the energy within humans and themselves in order to grant them the ability to bend one of the four elements. It predates the four main bending arts, the formation of the four nations, as well as the creation of the Avatar. Energybending is the ability to bend another person's life energy. ![]()
