Elementals

Elementals were one of the ancient races. Appearing suddenly from the Center of Elements in 2,870 B.E.E., they quickly destroyed the Elders. None were able to stand against their sheer strength since these mythological creatures were made purely of the Elements. Some historians and scientists dispute the existence of Elementals, refusing to believe that creatures made of the Elements could exist, but ancient texts seem to say otherwise.

Physical Characteristics
Like most of the ancient races, Elementals were giants by Human standards, the smallest being eight feet in height. Apart from that, very few united them commonly. Some like Wind and Heat Elementals were incorporeal, but others like Ground Elementals were physically solid. All surviving records say looking into the face of an Elemental is the most terrifying thing, as it swirls around constantly, threateningly. Their eyes are said to be soulless black pits, and apart from that they have no true discernible facial features.

Their upper bodies retained a marvelously Elder-like appearance, with two arms, hands, and a torso that tapered down to an ambiguous waist. That was as far as they resembled any other race though. The metaphysical Elementals had no truly defined muscles, while the solid ones had the semblance of them. In either case nothing physical was ever found that could combat either form of Elemental.

As for their lower body, there was again a distinction between those made of Energy Elements and those made of Material Elements. The latter tended to have legs while the former did not. Thus, while the physically solid Elementals were able to walk, the ethereal ones floated.

Another interesting distinction between types of Elementals was that most of the ones made from Energy Elements were smaller than the ones made from Material Elements.
