Avatars

The Avatars are the overarching protagonists of the Avatar: The Last Airbender franchise, with the individual Avatars, Aang and Korra, serving as the main protagonists of their respective series, and .
In the early days of humanity, a human by the name of Wan fused with the great light spirit Raava, thus turning Wan into the first Avatar, and becoming the only individual in the world capable of being able to bend all four elements. After Wan's death, Raava's light spirit continued to reincarnate into another person, with the ongoing mission to bring balance to the world.
==Powers & Abilities==
The Avatar is the only being which can master the four elements and can energybend as well. It first came to existence 10,000 years before the main story, as the result of a permanent fusion between Wan - the first man to not only possess the power of more than one element, but the first human bender as well - and Raava, the spirit of light and peace. The Avatar is a reincarnation of Wan throughout the millennia, starting a cycle that began the moment Wan died.
The Avatar is able to access the power of Raava and his or her previous incarnations in what is called the Avatar State, giving them unlimited power for as long as they are in said state. However, any given incarnation of the Avatar is not immortal, and if he or she is killed in the Avatar State, the Avatar Spirit will die and the cycle will end (though Raava herself will survive the death of the Avatar Spirit, and will eventually reform elsewhere).
==Goals==
The Avatar's mission in life, a task set forth by Wan himself, is to maintain balance of the world, as well as between the mortal and spirit realms. This job includes bringing peace between groups in conflict, or defeating threats to world peace such as imperialist tyrants bent on conquest. The Avatar is also the spiritual leader of the world; due to being half spirit, the Avatar is most powerful in the Spirit World, as opposed to other humans who normally are powerless in comparison. The Avatar must master the four elements and attain a certain degree of balance within themselves; they are then referred to as a "fully realized Avatar".
