I had forgotten about transmutation. That'd be a good way to handle the waterbenders' ability to chance water into ice/mist/etc. I guess for earth that'd let you compress dirt into rock or break it into sand.

For the martial arts, I wouldn't really suggest using the existing styles without some slight modification. Philosophy (Buddhism) doesn't really seem appropriate, though some other Philosophy might be.

I kinda agree, everything else about the style seems to fit. I'd probably just drop that.

And yeah, that's pretty much why I'd give waterbenders and earthbenders the transmutation only version of create. Because earthbenders always seem able to pull a heavy rock to chuck at someone out of any kind of ground, other than sand.

Keep in mind too that lots of people on these boards will happily help you stat out any individual effect, just describe what you want it to do and you'll often get a couple of suggestions.

The more descriptive, the more likely different people will make helpful suggestions.
