History WMG / KorraTheEqualistsAndOtherVillains

** The Momo character will be small and cute (like Jack the Monkey from PiratesOfTheCaribbean) but also mischievous and a thief.

Seeing as Kuvira was designed as a ShadowArchetype to Korra, it seems highly likely.
* Additionally, Korra will not immediately retaliate with a ShutUpHannibal or TalkToTheFist, but listen and perhaps even agree.
* Bolin's already done this.
** Inverted. It's Korra that does this to Kuvira to help talk her down.

* [[spoiler:Jossed. Zaheer just [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath murders her]] after a HannibalLecture.]]

* So Azula basically becomes a VideoGame/SilentHill boss? ...That's okay, [[NightmareFuel I wasn't planning on sleeping this week anyway]].

** Mai's counterpart...will be a ninja. Because [[InstantAwesomeJustAddNinja ninja's are cool]]. She will be silent and stoic, but a ruthless [[TheChessmaster chess master]] in opposition to Mai's original personality. She will be the one closest to Amon personally and the only one completely aware of his plans and will manipulate the rest of her team, and the new Team Avatar to her will. She would be based on actual historical kunoichi (alluring seductresses and assassins) instead of the popular myth.

** (note: not the OP) On the one hand Zaheer would still has his wind/flight powers since Korra couldn't take them away and he would be a good match for Kuvira; on the other he probably was executed since I can't think of any safe way isolate him from air (coma maybe? Help me out, SCPFoundation people!).

She created a city encased in domes dedicated to the advancement of science and art without government oversight and populated with former criminals. [[Franchise/BioShock Sound familiar?]]

Unalaq was a once kinder water bender healer who had a very close connection with the Spirit World. Unfortunately, because the North Pole is very close to one of the Spirit portals where Vaatu was imprisoned, Vaatu used his influence to slowly corrupt Unalaw over the span of many years. Playing on his emotions and deep connection with the spirits, he convinced him that the Avatar made a mistake in sealing the portals between the Spirit and mortal world (as is expected since the Avatar contains Raava, his eternal enemy). And being the spirit of darkness and chaos, Vaatu also fed on Unalaq's inner insecurities, while masking them by making him believe that his indirect involvement in the rampage of the spirits to usurp power from his brother, deception of his neice Korra, and ill treatment of his children, Desna and Eska, was justification for bringing justice to the world by allowing humans and spirits to live together in harmony. Furthermore, Vaatu exploited Unalaq's empathy towards spirits by subtly manipulating him into believing that he was a poor, suffering spirit condemned into eternal imprisonement simply for doing something that was simply part of his nature, and which were an integral part of the Ying-Yang balance of light and dark. Rather than being a self-righteous prick, Unalaq is a poor deluded victim with good intentions twisted by the words of Vaatu.

* RealityEnsues hard when the new Airbenders shown no interest on becoming part of the new nation. But because of the previous seasons' {{Big Bad}}s WhatTheHellHero speeches to the people (Amon towards the Pro-bending spectators and Unalaq towards the South Pole), perhaps instead of a WhatTheHellHeroSpeech the [[VillainHasAPoint previous villains did]], Zaheer thanked the new Airbenders for not [[JumpedAtTheCall jumping to the call]] and letting the world devolve into chaos. [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame Zaheer's Approval Fills Them With Shame]].

* Vaatu was also killed by the spirit-calming technique. Does [[ReviveKillsZombie spirit-calming kill the original dark spirit]]?

As [[http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:1306932 this post]] postulates, Hundun met the Red Lotus founder Xai Bau in the Spirit World and convinces her that the current order and the Avatar were not good for the world so that there would be an organization to oppose the current incarnation of his eternal enemy. The biggest piece of evidence is the symbol on the front of the Hunden's NiceHat, it's almost identical to the Red Lotus symbol. When he was freed after the portals were left open, the top members of his organization were imprisoned or in hiding, so he used the Triads and Equalists instead.

The first series' Fire Nation during the hundred-year war clearly represents old-school imperialism. First season ''Korra'''s Equalists are communist-like stand-ins. The Red Lotus (possibly minus Unalaq) are pretty obvious anarchists, and finally, Kuvira's Earth Empire is blatantly a totalitarian pseudo-fascist analog.
* Unalaq is more among the lines religious fundamentalism.

* Everything Zaheer told Korra in Xai Bau's Grove was a lie. Zaheer and his crew aren't part of a larger organization. Zaheer just told Korra that they were to stall for time so his allies could snatch her body while she was listening to his story. Aiwei was simply a corrupt official that Zaheer bribed into letting him into Zaofu. The Red Lotus sentries in "Venom of the Red Lotus" were simply mercenaries that Zaheer payed off with gold he stole from the Earth Queen's palace. Xai Bau is not the order's founder, nor even a real person who was ever in the White Lotus -- rather, he's a LineOfSightName based on the grove they were in that Zaheer just name-dropped to beef up his story. Why did the Red Lotus not appear in season four, you ask? Because they're not real, aside from Zaheer and his gang.
