Firebending, one of the four elemental bending arts, is the pyrokinetic ability to control fire and is unique among the bending arts, as it is the only one in which the user can create their element. Firebending is practiced by the people of the Fire Nation, as well as the lesser known Sun Warriors. Fire is the element of power, consisting of overpowering force tempered by the unflinching will to accomplish tasks and desires. However, the recently militaristic Fire Nation twisted this into firebending being fueled by rage, hate, and anger. Firebending draws its power from the sun, and the first human firebenders derived their firebending techniques from the dragons. Firebending is notable for its intensive attacking style and general lack of adequate defense moves, although some notable firebenders utilize creative defensive moves; for example, Jeong Jeong could create walls of fire, and Zuko was able to simultaneously block and shoot down incoming objects.
