Hey I was just thinking, remember when Aang was killed when he was in the avatar state? What if the physical avatar state was somehow separated from the spiritual side?
This could explain Amon's power as he is not able to bend elements, but he could have got his current power by communicating with spirits like Aang did with the lion turtle; this could possible if he was born with the spiritual side of an avatar.
This could also explain Korra; she has not/can not contact the spirit world or go into avatar state, but has the ability to bend earth, water, fire and air.
What do you think?
