The Legend of Niche: (Avatar Challenge)

(I MESSED UP THE LIFESPAN SETTINGS LEMME TRY RESTARTING AGAIN)

The founders in this timeline of Avatar are, from left to right, Distant, Satyr, Risk, Brilliant, and Flower.
1600571344_ScreenShot2019-12-20at5_00_15PM.png.6091c3355a3e771391c687e49da76313.png
Distant is the founder of the Earthbenders in the tribe. Like his name suggests, he is a reserved old soul, not often giving his opinion on things unless asked. 
The Avatar this time is a Firebender named Satyr. Her bold personality is typical of that of a Firebender. She is extremely self-confident to the point where she might be considered cocky. Even though she is older, she has the partying habits of a young nicheling.
Third is Risk, the Firebender leader of the tribe. Despite being the leader of the Firebenders, he is very gentle. He is often at odds with Satyr, thinking she needs to be more respectful and kind if she is to be the Avatar.
Next is the Airbending leader, Brilliant. She is gentle, too, trying to make peace whenever there is an argument in the tribe. She has little tolerance for Satyr, though, often sympathizing with Risk.
Finally is Flower, the leader of the Waterbenders. The only member of the tribe not considered in older age, Flower is a reserved, lonely nicheling. She gets along well with Brilliant, who often keeps her company. However, she often bickers with Satyr.

The tribe starts gathering material. A few days in, a bearyena busts into the clan, killing Brilliant and Risk before being taken down. The deaths leave the tribe to mourn, especially Flower, who loved Brilliant. Flower grows up into a full member of the tribe.

Not long after the attack, a new nicheling joins the tribe- a young male named Warthog. Warthog is blind, but this doesn't stop him from being a great Earthbender. He is rather soft-sspoken and sweet, and to the suprise of the tribe, he becomes fast friends with Satyr, who is impressed by his skill.
"You're the avatar? That's pretty amazing," says Warthog.
"Nah, not as amazing as you," says Satyr, showing unexpected compassion. "You can bend so well, without seeing."
"It's no magic," says Warthog.
"My father was blind," says Satyr. "It's nice that you show others that you can still be a successful bender, no matter your challenges."

Distant dies of old age, and upon his death, he passes on the role of leader of the Earthbenders to Warthog.

Another new male joins the tribe- Phantom, a Waterbender with a serious, dark personality. This disappoints Flower, who was hoping for a friend when she saw a new Waterbender joining the tribe.

Satyr dies of old age, leaving Warthog to mourn and the others to wonder who the next Avatar will be.

A new male joins the tribe, named Rider. he is an earthbender, and has a sweet, modest personality. He often bickers with the other males in the tribe, though, feeling like he might be inadequate.

Another bearyena comes after the tribe and kills Warthog, leaving Rider to take over.

CHAPTER TWO, DAY 32
WATER: Flower (Leader), Phantom
EARTH: Rider

A new female joins the tribe, named Rebel. Despite her name, she is comedically naive- she comes from a rough-and-tumble birth clan, and was too docile to stay with their lifestyle so she left looking for a peaceful place to be. She is a waterbender.
620239153_ScreenShot2019-12-20at5_54_24PM.png.3db9f30d4cb303c07efe32d512907753.png
Flower distances herself from the new member, so instead, Phantom welcomes her. He is amused by Rebel's naive personality, and the two become friends before he asks her to become his mate. She agrees, and eventually, they announce they will be having a child. They have Croc, an impulsive, rambunctious son. He is rather argumentative and hard to deal with, even for his parents. The only member who really has patience for him is Flower, who finds his quick wit charming.
1438703793_ScreenShot2019-12-20at6_12_11PM.png.ded9fe809adc112226e7a6dab81ebda0.png

At the same time, the tribe befriends Moth, a childish, sweet Airbender. She becomes good friends with Flower.

The island is getting barren, and it is decided that the tribe should move on to the next place. They call together a meeting. Since Flower has been in the tribe the longest, she facilitates the meeting. 
"First, We'll start with the Airbenders. What's your vote?" She smiles at Moth.
Moth thinks a moment. "How about South? It looks beautiful."
"Fair," says Flower. She looks at her Waterbenders. "Water faction?"
"We think south, too," purrs Rebel.
"And finally, earth," says Flower. "Rider?"
Rider shrugs. "I preferred east, but south is fine."

BOOK TWO CHAPTER THREE, DAY 63
AIR: Moth
WATER: (Leader) Flower, Rebel, Phantom, Croc
EARTH: Rider

The tribe arrives on the new island- a varied grassland. 

Rebel dies of old age, and Phantom dies soon after.
A bearyena comes into the tribe and kills Croc. Luckily, a new young female joins the tribe- Blossom is impulsive and energetic, and becomes leader of the Fire faction. She befriends flower, who has just gone through a loss with Croc's death.

The tribe also befriends Soulstealer. A careful airbender, he has an intimidating prophecy over him. He is very insecure and unsure of himself, so it takes some time to crack open his thoughts, but finally, he confides in Flower about it. 
"I was told I'd be a gamechanger for a tribe by mastering all four elements," he mumbles. "But I'm still not done training with this one!"
"Then.." Flower's eyes light up. "You must be the Avatar!" She hugs the young male, to his shock. "I remember when our last Avatar was alive, but it's been many years. Once you finish Airbending, you can learn firebending from Blossom."
"Sounds great," purrs Soulstealer.

Flower finally dies of old age peacefully. Soulstealer begins his training with Blossom.
Moth dies of old age, leaving the Avatar the leader of the Airbenders.

The tribe befriends a new female- Carnivore- who takes over when the Avatar and Blossom die. She is an impulsive, energetic Earthbender.

Carnivore befriends Primalcall, a tough Firebender. They become close friends.

DAY 197
FIRE: Primalcall

Primalcall befriends Passis, a blind Airbender. She is jolly and energetic, but dislikes Primalcall because she thinks him too serious.
1907851893_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_46_46AM.png.3cc4b08b4f5394d93d12d83ef8a13e28.png

Soon after, the tribe befriends a young teenager named Maverick. Maverick is a bold waterbender, and apparently is revealed to be the Avatar. Despite his brash personality, he earns respect from Jolly due to his skill and from Primalcall due to the stories he'd heard of the Avatar from old tribe members.

Primalcall dies of old age.

The tribe is then joined by a young adult male named Cannonball. Like his name suggests, Cannonball is daring and a bit reckless. He is an earthbender, and he imusively joins the tribe out of curiosity. He secretly harbors insecurity but tells no one.
264229405_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_59_20AM.png.0d5bf06adfa07dbd85be0c6a37149fdb.png
The tribe also finds a young teenager named Throttle. Throttle is a relaxed but tough airbender. He doesn't like the Avatar much, feeling intrnally jealous of him. This makes Passis dislike the new nicheling, considering his jealousy something petty.
855351845_ScreenShot2019-12-21at3_03_51AM.png.d8a88d75a83d6364a651df813e965f8a.png

Meanwhile, Maverick fully masters Waterbending and is ready to move on to his next element. Passis volunteers to teach him Airbending next, and he agrees.

DAY 234 BOOK 3, CHAPTER FIVE

WATER: Maverick (Avatar)
EARTH: Cannonball (Leader), Throttle

Maverick finishes his Airbending training with Passis and she dies soon after. He then begins Earthbending training under Cannonball.

A bearyena attacks the tribe and Maverick goes after it- the creature attacks Maverick, giving him a scarring wound to his lower front right leg.  This hinders training a bit, but still, Maverick finishes Earthbending and is now ready for Firebending. The one problem? Not a firebender in sight.

"Why not move islands and look for one?" Suggests Cannonball. "We can talk about where we'll go."
The three decide to head South, where it seems to be warm. They arrive on yet another island that looks slightly like the one from before.
666449727_ScreenShot2019-12-21at12_52_38PM.png.02ce6617ee80f1e66a1f9be2116e5cab.png

"Who knows? Maybe we'll find some bachelorettes here," jokes Throttle.
And Throttle is right- soon after their arrival, a little female joins the tribe. Her name is Agent, and she is a serious, poised Airbender.
907917508_ScreenShot2019-12-21at1_05_25PM.png.6e824b3d8201f71e2669ef264f156676.png

"Have you seen any Firebenders?" Maverick asks, flicking his tail.
"No, but you could try getting up on the calling stump," suggests Agent. "It's over there."

The tribe calls, and in comes Lost. She is not a firebender- no, she's an earthbender- but she has an easygoing, calm personality.
800741149_ScreenShot2019-12-21at1_27_04PM.png.b7f7b3c2efd83e7240c0cf0d97ce0ce8.png
Lost takes a liking to Cannonball, and they become mates. It's not long before they announce that they will be having a child.

However, before this happens, Maverick dies. The tribe respectfully buries their Avatar.
Agent announces that she, too, is pregnant with a half-bearyena. However, with half of the tribe expecting a child, this leaves it severely less guarded when an unfriendly bearyena comes in. The creature kills both males in the tribe, leaving Lost alone when she gives birth to her daughter, Alien. She is a serious, determined little earthbender, but she holds something special about her...
1129439200_ScreenShot2019-12-21at1_44_36PM.png.4bee647956465fdec505ded722cc4539.png
The fact that a bearyena killed the males in the tribe causes a damper in Agent and Lost's relationship. Lost thinks that Agent is untrustworthy due to the fact that she mated with the same species of creature that killed Alien's father. It makes her even angrier that Alien doesn't seem to hold this fact against Agent. Agent, meanwhile, says that she knew the bearyena that she mated with before anything bad happened, so she is not to blame.

Another male joins the tribe. His name is Snakes. Snakes is brash and awkward, but harbors a loneliness inside him. He is also an airbender, like Agent. The two of them get rather close, and he even helps Agent throughout her pregnancy.
776308788_ScreenShot2019-12-21at1_54_05PM.png.d31d155d7f489cc1cdb410230503905c.png
Even with this assistance, the kit dies in the birthing process. Heartbroken, Agent confides in Snakes, and Snakes is sure to be there for her.
"Maybe try finding love with another nicheling?" Snakes asks awkwardly, putting his paw on hers.
"Yeah, I can do that," says Agent, leaning on him.

DAY 274, BOOK 4, CHAPTER SIX
AIR: Agent (Leader), Snakes
EARTH: Lost (Leader), Alien (Avatar)

A short amount of time passes, and Agent announces she will be having another child- this time with Snakes.

Another male joins the tribe- his name is Officer. He is a firebender, and has a bold, commanding personality. He tends to argue a lot with Agent, who thinks him annoying and bossy.
1585285539_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_06_18PM.png.c90875221e12afe82c356da6e2e7e7fb.png

Agent finally gives birth to she and Snakes' son- she names him Ascension. Ascension is a gentle, humble kit.
889866072_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_10_07PM.png.b79f98a0d598626558f72e5f03a6e5e1.png

Alien finishes her Airbender training. However, one day, she is out playing with young Ascension that there is more to her power. The two of them are playing with their bending elements, sparring with each other when Ascension makes an attack with a strong gust of wind. However, just when it's about to hit Alien, she reflexively deflects the gust of wind with a gust of... her own?
"Woah! How'd that happen?" asks Ascension. Dumbfounded, Alien stares at her paws.
"I.. I don't know...!"
"Here, let's go ask my mom!" says Ascension, and Alien bounds after him.
Agent doesn't believe what they're saying and takes it as a joke. "Very funny, you two," she says, grinning.
"No, really! Do it again, Alien!" says Ascension. Alien takes a deep breath, and after a few attempts, proves her story true- she sends a powerful  gust of wind, knocking over Agent.
"It can't be!" Gasps Agent. "Oh, your mother will be so proud!" She hugs the teenager. "Come on, we have to tell her! You're the Avatar- the first one to be naturally born to our tribe!"

Alien, Agent, and Ascension approach Lost's den and show her what Alien can do.
"My daughter... the avatar!" Laughs Lost in joy, grabbing Alien and holding her tight. "I'm.. so proud of you."
"I know you and I don't have the best history, Lost," starts Agent, "But I'd be happy to instruct Alien in Airbending as a start. It would be an honor to help instruct the Avatar."
"I can allow it," says Lost, still smiling,

A young new male joins the tribe. His name is Castle. He's a bit impulsive and cocky, but means well. He is an earthbender. He finds himself attracted to Lost, and the two begin to court each other.
1703656119_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_34_53PM.png.6c65d092df113fddaf28a6345ecb51c3.png

Lost announces that she and Castle are now mates and will be having a child together.
Lost gives birth to a son- Goat, named for his impressive horns. But she feels terror as she nearly loses him- a bearyena comes at her nest and attacks her. Thankfully, Alien comes and saves them both.
1495699445_ScreenShot2019-12-21at2_49_11PM.png.3e4244b616ce5aeafa4d7c736acc4600.png

Speaking of, Alien finishes her Airbender training and can now move on. She trains to learn Firebending under Officer.

Snakes dies of old age. Meanwhile, Ascension grows into full maturity and finishes his training as an Airbender.

FIRE: Officer
AIR: Agent (Leader), Ascension
EARTH: Lost (Leader), Alien (Avatar), Castle, Goat

The tribe is joined by an all-black male named Stars. He is a firebender- but an easygoing, sweet one- and is considered rather attractive.
1396895269_ScreenShot2019-12-21at3_00_07PM.png.63b6ece78d83cbfbf24bc25d5293a5a0.png

Lost announces that she will be having another child.

A young teenager named Forest joins the tribe. He is a polite Waterbender who befriends Castle.

DAY 330, BOOK FIVE, CHAPTER EIGHT
FIRE: Officer (Leader), Stars
WATER: Forest
EARTH: Castle (Leader), Goat, Tiger

Agent dies of old age, and Goat dies of an illness.

A bearyena comes into the tribe and kills Forest.

Stars dies.

The tribe befriends a female named Felicite. She is a bossy, independent Firebender and often rebels against Officer. She feels as if she can rebel because she has special powers- that of an Avatar. She already knows both Firebending and Airbending, and therefore elects to begin Earthbending from Castle.

1868945567_ScreenShot2019-12-21at11_37_34PM.png.6fc9d6ad1436e9ba343f3e735a4aaa4f.png
"She's nothing like Alien," complains Officer.

The tribe also finds an orphaned kit and takes her in. They name her Lissa. She looks like an airbender or firebender,, but as she grows, she shows potential of being a Waterbender. She is taken in to be fathered by Castle.

247412585_ScreenShot2019-12-21at11_44_27PM.png.14b7bc4b662c6a12865dd952eca89800.png

The tribe also befriends a strange, all-white male named Chronos. He is a Timid earthbender. He makes quick friends with Castle and Lissa.
"I think it very honorable you're raising her as your own," he compliments Castle.
"She reminds me of my first child," purrs Castle. "His name was Goat." He flicks a tail to Tiger. "That over there's my second son. I promised I'd keep her safe like I kept Tiger safe."
553265441_ScreenShot2019-12-21at11_51_50PM.png.f6fa5f35a9999c41059f3958bd9f7a94.png

A bearyena attacks the tribe. Tiger is killed by it, and though Felicite helps defeat it, it bites off her front right paw. Thanks to the help of Lissa's healing, she lives, but not without walking with a limp for the rest of her life. She falls into a deep depression. However, while healing and retraining herself without her paw, she befriends Chronos, who offers to help her recover.

A bearyena comes, killing Chronos and Castle. In a fit of grief and rage, Felicite and Lissa manage to effortlessly take it down together. However, a friendly bearyena is left behind, and the two spare it. Felicite also begins to learn Waterbending from Lissa, and completes her training.

Time passes, and together, the two explore the remainder of the island together and decide it's time to move on. The two bicker for a while, and finally decide after a few weeks to head East.

On the way, they meet a teenager named Hank. Hank is pretty immature, but he's useful, so they take him in. He's an Airbender. Felicite befriends him, since he reminds her of herself when she was his age.

A storm comes, and Felicite and Lissa drown, leaving Hank alone. Hank is soon killed by a bearyena.
