Elements List

"Natural Elements"

Your basic magic spells and such. Each person must control at least one of these elements to be considered a mage.

Fire: Raging infernos and powerful fireballs. More physical and destructive. It's more for the outright attackers than anything else

Water: Controlled streams of water and the ability to breath underwater. Still powerful (like the uncontrollable tide) but in a quieter way. Mages with the water element are stealthy, and can be a bit manipulative too.

Earth: Tangling vines and shields of earth. The defenders mostly. They can hold their own in a fight, and won't give any ground. They can be seen as stubborn even outside of battle.

Air: Tornadoes and the like. Those who control air aren't typically as strong as the others. They would be overpowered quickly in a fight, if they could be caught. Naturally, those who control air are capable of using it to slow their opponent, blind them, or use the wind to knock them to the ground (or keep themselves from falling) Like the relentless gales they control, these mages have a lot of stamina and speed to them. They are also very quick thinkers.

Storms: Spells speak for themselves. The storm mages can summon lightning and thunder, and are more than a match in strength to the fire mages. Their powers, however, take a good deal more skill to control, and take longer to fully understand. As such, the younger mages are prone to making mistakes, and the older ones rather...arrogant.

Beasts: A bit of a supporter to the earth mages. Some hardly consider beast mages to be mages at all. They possess a strong connection to animals, and can summon nearby ones to attack, or if they are skilled enough, create one of their own. They're by far the most loyal and friendly of the mages, and prefer to travel with one or two companions.

Ice: Dagger-like icicles and shields of ice. The ice mages are a balance between all others. Not as strong as fire, not as fast as air, not as sturdy as earth, but somewhere in the middle. The ice they control can take shape into almost anything, meaning that they have to be quick on their feet. They are the strategists above all else. In general, they are friendly, although somewhat detached from others.

Other Elements:
If you can think up other elements, feel free to use them, and be creative! But the rule is, YOU HAVE TO HAVE one of the Natural Elements too. For instance, you can be only a fire mage, or a fire/darkness mage, but NOT only a darkness mage.
Why? So that the world here conforms to some general rules- like ours must follow the Laws of Physics- even if we don't like it. Plus, it makes it a little easier for the rest of us to understand your mage's full power.

Examples:
Light
Darkness
Twilight
etc.

I have some elements to add in, if I am allowed.

Light: Is more of an illusionist element. Light mages can manipulate light, creating mirages of things to misguide others. In battle, this is quite useful to an inexperienced warrior, however, can be very tricky to pull of if facing a serious foe. They will have to be creative and intelligent to make this element truly bend to their advantage. Light mages can also form rays of light into weapons just by grabbing it right out of the air! They are friendly and outgoing. Basically optimists.

Darkness: Those who control darkness can stretch shadows to engulf their prey into a world of suffering. Dark mages can manipulate shadows right in the palm of their hand. They are equally strong to light mages but have a different form of fighting. Dark mages can blind theiur enemies using the shadows they cast as they form an orb of concentrated darkness to cast them awaqy to the shadow realm. Whomever wields these powers are very distant, mysterious and at times aggressive. Definitely the antagonists of the mages.

Spiritual: These mages are very... spiritual. They can contact the dead and use the spirits of both bad and good to rid of their foes. These mages are very mysterious with their ways of battling and can certainly bring surprises. Spiritual mages can be evil or good depending on their lifestyle or personality. But what is certain is that these types of spirit callers are usually calm and understanding or decietful and sneaky.

Lol, oh yeah! Btw, here's a few more elements.

Combat: Combat Mages aren't too familiar with long range attacks. They like to get up close and personal at all times. Their magic only enhances their bodies and the bodies of others. Some spells even act as steroids for a certain amount of time where the Combat Mages can form huge muscles and gain trmendous speed! They can be egotistical and sometimes blunt but when it comes to kindness they can certainly show it.

Twilight Mages: Stuck between light and dark, twilight mages can control a little of light and a little of darkness. Their attack power is slightly lower than those who wield pure darkness or pure light but they are witty and stealthy and can certainly use their small amount of power to their advantage. Creating small illusions and using the shadows to hide away from others, these mages need to train harder than the others to truly grasp hold of their unique powers and perhaps become stronger than light or darkness. These mages are neutral with everything. They can't really decide what to do or what to pick sometimes and can be naive because of this. However, Twilight Mages can be a little bit darker or lighter if they choose to be.

I have some epic ones.

Animal: They can change into any animal at will. They hate being confined to one space. They normally keep away from other people and are dark and lonely. They are great in battle because they can change to aviode being hit. They can also hear and sense other animals around them. And if they need they can have one part of an animal at a time. But this is a harder task. Ex: Being as fast as a cheetah without being one

Blood: They can controll the blood in any creature and use them like a puppet. It's harder for them to controll other mages, but the ones that can are hard to beat. People stay as far away from them as they can. Normaly they are lonely and easy to trick. But some have an inner sence that tells them who to stay away from. They can also feel the pump of someone's blood and tell where they are.

I gots one


Necromancer: Can reanimate dead bodies to be their undead soldiers, can also summon demons, how strong the undead are all depends on how creative they can get and how much of their magic they put into the bodies, and how strong the demons they summon are depends on how powerful they, the necromancer, themselves are, they are usually weaker than the necromancer to keep them from betraying the necromancer. They're usually cold and sadistic, preferring to keep to themselves.
