About
Avatar DnD is a homebrew tabletop role-playing system that adapts the four elements of bending into a structured form-based magic system.
How Forms Work
Every bending technique is represented as a form. Each form belongs to one of the four elements and to a specific discipline within that element. Forms have a mastery level that gates when a character can learn them.
Elements
- Air
- Water
- Fire
- Earth
Mastery Levels
- Novice
- Intermediate
- Advanced
- Master
Form Properties
Each form is described by a set of properties that determine how it behaves in play:
- Type
- Whether the form targets the self, another creature, or an area.
- Casting Time
- How long it takes to perform the form (action, bonus action, reaction, etc.).
- Duration
- How long the effect lasts.
- Range
- The maximum distance at which the form can affect a target.
- Components
- What the bender uses to perform the form — typically Body or Mind.
- Concentration
- Whether the form requires sustained focus to keep active.
- Damage
- The damage dealt by the form, if any.
- Saving Throw
- The ability score check a target makes to resist or reduce the form's effect.
- Cost
- What the bender spends to use the form — typically a slot.
Project
This is a personal homebrew project. The form data is served from a Django REST API; this site is the Flask frontend that consumes it.
