Elementals are sentient personifications of the arcane elements. If mana is the fuel for spells, elementals are the engines. Elementals exist as pure energy, and are normally invisible to the naked eye, but they can be materialized or summoned into physical form.
There are five tiers of elementals: Least, Lesser, Greater, Major, Arch. Elementals of the lowest tier are small and quirky. They like to appear as roughly humanoid. Elementals of the highest tier are enormous, majestic, and often manifest as wingless, bearded, serpantine dragons. nurturing
- Air
- Sylphs. Nimble and graceful. All sylphs are airborne. They either bear insect-like wings or can float. Smaller sylphs can alight, but never on the ground.
- Dark
- Infernals. Diabolical and avaricious. Many infernals are adorned with a set of membranous bat-like wings. Many also bear horns of varying sizes and shapes and some have a reptilian tail.
- Earth
- Gnomes. Stubborn and tough. Gnomes are jovial and keep busy. They might appear as burrowing creatures or small fellows with pointed hats.
- Electricity
- Sprites. Energetic and speedy. They speak fast and think faster. Arch-elemental sprites are thought to incite thunderstorms.
- Fire
- Salamanders. Rash and passionate. The salamanders are hot to the touch and short-tempered. Most of them have amphibian fingers and tails, like a newt.
- Ice
- Nix. Aloof and callous. The nix are cold to the touch; nearly always blue or white.
- Light
- Supernals. Righteous and brave. Many supernals appear as physically strong humanoids and adorned with a pair of majestic, feathery wings. Very often they have long, flowing hair.
- Metal
- Gremlins. Clever and ornery. They're likely to either fix something metal that's broken, or take apart something that's whole just to see how it works.
- Ruin
- Boggles. Mischievous and destructive. Messes, disorder, and chaos are their stock-in-trade.
- Slime
- Blobs. Distasteful and lazy. The slimes ooze their way around with repulsive comments and a corrosive touch.
- Verdance
- Dryads. Uplifting and nurturing. Dryads are ageless and associated with lush forests.
- Water
- Undines. Playful and enchanting. The undines prefer to be near bodies of water.
