LoK happens in a twenties-ian era, but for some reason Lisbeth Salander just won't get out of my head, and I'm trying to find a good balance between her and Hairdostuck Rose Lalonde appearance-wise, but the punk movement didn't show up 'till the seventies, and even the greasers didn't happen until the fifties.
So what I'm asking is, how punk rock can my character's clothing style be?

Um... not at all? As you said, LoK's influences are 1920's (between late 1800's - 1920's, really), so '70's punk rock style wouldn't be appropriate at all. Hope this helps! :]
EDIT; That's not to say dark clothing / short hair / piercings aren't allowed — they just have to be appropriate for the setting - so miniskirts, for instance, would not be appropriate. If you're having trouble making a 1920's punk-esque style, then it's probably best if you don't use it. :]

You underestimate my power.
Good to know. Another question: Can D&D be a thing in-setting?

Hm... Given what Kami said, I'd go with a no. That was also around in the 70s. That's not to say there aren't board games. Some may be of role-playing sort, but it would probably feature benders and may not have different races. Yeah. I'd honestly say no.

Confirming what Yuriko said. That wasn't created until the 1970's. That said, it really sounds like you're trying to make a modern-day character fit into Korra. I'm going to have to ask you not to do that. :] Even if you take inspiration from a character, remember your characters need to be 'native' to Korra — rather than trying to bring modern-day elements into an already-themed series.

No trying to put together a playgroup for a rousing game of Bats & Benders. Got it.
Question three: Does this site have any kind of chatbox?

I already did. I must have missed the part where it said No Chatbox.
EDIT: Thanks for clearing that up, Kami.
EDIT EDIT: Another question occurs to me. We've seen Equalists bomb civilian places now, so I was wondering if at any point y'all are gonna have room for an Equalist bomb-maker/deliverer. *thinking ahead*

Perhaps in the future, yes! :] We currently are not that far into the plot, but once the Equalists become more active that will definitely be a possibility :]
