The "Avatar State" is a powerful condition that the Avatar can enter, allowing them to access the knowledge and abilities of all previous Avatars. In this state, the Avatar's physical and spiritual powers are greatly enhanced, making them capable of bending all four elements: water, earth, fire, and air. This transformation often occurs in moments of extreme emotional stress or danger. While in the Avatar State, the Avatar becomes a formidable force, but they also risk losing control. If the Avatar is defeated while in this state, it can lead to the permanent death of the Avatar cycle, which would have significant consequences for the balance of the world.
