What Season 1 of The Legend of Korra
Korra, 17 years old and from the Southern Water Tribe, is the new Avatar, the only person capable of mastering all four elements. Seventy years after the Hundred Year War, she moves to Republic City to learn airbending from Tenzin. In this modern metropolis, benders and non-benders live side by side, and the tension between the two groups shapes every step of the story. Korra gets hooked on pro-bending alongside Mako and Bolin, two brothers who need money to compete. Meanwhile, the Equalists, led by Amon, oppose benders, and councilman Tarrlok creates a task force to wipe them out.
