Each Avatara deals with a different situation, but, as Bhagavaan says:
<b>Paritranaaya Sadhunaam, Vinaashaya cha Dushkruthaam
Dharma Sansthaapanaarthaya, Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge.</b> <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
A Purna Avatara seems to be God manifesting. An Amsa Avatara is a human being who has been given special powers by God. I would not call an Amsa Avatara an Avatara. This must be Vaishnava theology.
