Firebending is a fictional martial art from the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. It allows practitioners, known as firebenders, to create and control fire using their chi, or life energy. This bending style is characterized by its aggressive and dynamic techniques, often reflecting the personality of the bender. In the series, firebending is one of the four elemental bending arts, alongside waterbending, earthbending, and airbending. Each bending style is associated with a specific nation, with firebenders primarily hailing from the Fire Nation. Mastery of firebending requires discipline, focus, and a strong connection to one's emotions.
