I had an idea a while back for an underwater fire nation. Basically it would revolve around what amounts to sentient tube worms, like the ones that chill underwater around deep sea volcanic vents. They'd be sacred, comparatively cheap, and crazy powerful fire/water mages but they'd be aquatic and immobile. To round them out they'd be supported by their worshipers, sentient (but dumb) eel creatures (based on a real life pacific volcano known as "eel city" in which tons of eels hang out way deeper than they should be) that use their earth magic as an act of worship, to delve for new volcanic vents and allow new colonies of worms to establish themselves. Toss in a few deep sea creatures as summons and I think it'd be a pretty interesting nation. Shame I'm busy, haven't got the focus to mod, and haven't got the artistic ability to make sprites.

Ultimately I thought it'd be kind of awesome to make a nation that, once it'd solved the problem of surfacing, could just hose the battlefield down with acid and lava. Also I thought it'd be sort of nice to see an underwater nation that wasn't either an astral/water or nature/water combo, and didn't use the stereotypical "ice blast" powers in battle with their water mages.
