Okay, hear me out: Lightbenders
It's a subset of firebending that outputs energy as a more concentrated light (still hot though, don't touch!). Skilled lightbenders can change the color of that light, and they can work as beacons or flares from afar.
I can imagine there being a lot of culture around the stars lighting the way in the absence of the sun, and combat methods that involve distracting your opponent or burning them with laser focus.
