We will see a flashback to 5 young Korra in the first episode, with Cora Baker doing the voice.

  • Aang and Katara have 3 kids, Tenzin is the youngest and the only Airbender
  • They live on an island of the coast of republic City, Air Temple Island (I think)

His henchmen are Chi Blockers, all masked

 
  • There are Metalbender Cops who were trained by Toph (who travels around teaching elite Earthbenders the ability, a Metalbender Swat team), they have spools on their backs that have metal chains in them, so they can Zip around teh city
  • Toph has a daughter who is Chief of Police
  • There is Professional Bending fights between Teams of 3 benders (one of each bending discipline, I presume Airbenders are not yet high in numbers) in arenas, Epic fights
  • Josh Middleton who drew the poster of Korra on Naga has come on board for the second season of Korra, as is Lauren Montgomery

And there is a parkour/freerunning aspect in the fights to with Jake Huang and Steve Terada helping out there.
  • On the music side of things, The style they are going for is if China invented Jazz in the 20′s, also Western and Ethical music
  • The panelists urged fans to contact Nickelodeon about the need for an ATLA soundtrack and mentioned multiple times how dedicated Avatar fans are.
