I will try and update fire nation tonight. I just worked on a long reply, that got deleted right before I could post it.

Okay, I'm gonna throw a little math on the fire nation thread. But before I do, let me just note that Eragon was able to punch through a man's chestplate with his fist, though whether it was iron or steel, not sure. Most likely it was steel, considering the technology of the era in the Inheritance cycle. Athletes can throw baseballs at speeds approaching 100 mph. For estimates sake, let's say 100 mph approximately. Now, Katrina is a 5 ton lifter, making her at least about 6 times stronger than said theoretical athlete. That doesn't necessarily mean the sword is flying at 600 mph, because her sword is heavier than the baseball, but considering spears can be thrown at speeds approaching the baseball under the right conditions, I would place Uden's flight speed at around 350-475 mph. It should be noted that her spell does nothing to increase the sword speed, merely maintain that speed. It should also be noted that it would take a special kind of fire bender to physical catch that sword in his helmet, as even at a modest 300 mph, the blade should have traveled a bit over the length of a football field in approximately one second. Lastly, with that kind of force, his helmet would not be able to withstand the impact site of the point of the sword, although the energy required to maintain the speed of the sword would momentarily spike.

I can edit out the helmet move however, even of I don't, if we can just go with a "this is the fastest firebender in the nation" explination, as strenuous as it is given what I now about to speed of the sword, I wrote it in a way that allows for failure. It was a way to break up the pist, giving me an end point, and allowing you in your next post to address weather it would stop the sword or not.

Sorry, didn't mean to vanish so suddenly. My dog died on the 6th and I haven't felt like doing much. Going to try and get back in the swing of things here over the next few days.

That's so sad, animals are amazing creatures, both canine and human. I hope you can overcome this hump.

Sorry to hear that Tom. Losing a loved one sucks. When I lost my Mom in September it basically derailed my Star Wars RP and I still haven't gotten back into the full swing of it yet so I how you must be feeling.
