There are some who are gifted with the powers of the very elements that make up practicably everything speck of matter in this universe. A brief of each known type is listed below.

Each Element is supported by a god of immense power, and more about the gods, as well as extensive explanations, will appear in later chapters.
Fire elementals' powers tend to be destructive. Their personality usually revolves around anger or bravery.
