The Elemental Realms

The Elemental Realms, or Elemental Planes, are ten special planes of energy that exist within our universe. They each represent one of the Ten Elements.
==History==
They have existed far before anyone can remember, possibly having existed even before space and time began to crawl forward. These Realms are responsible for the presence of the ten Elements in our universe; Fire, Ice, Water, Electricity, Wind, Earth, Light, Darkness, Nature, and Poison. All of them are natural concepts that have existed long before Mobius was even formed.
==Description==
The Realms are not physical; it is impossible to step foot into these places of purest energy. However, there are still rumors that creatures beyond our comprehension exist in these Realms; quite fittingly, they are known as Elementals, and exist in a few different forms.
The Elementals that are most well-known overall primarily manifest as alien and abstract beings of pure energy that represent the element they are tied to; they are often referred to as 'Pure Elementals', but are more officially known as 'Katharo-Elementals'.
In very rare instances, a single Pure Elemental can fuse with a physical living body that can be found on any terrestrial planet, creating what is functionally a hybrid, better known as a 'Quasi-Elemental'. This process is almost never known to occur naturally, and is typically done through artificial means.
Although still an incredibly rare process, it is possible for Elemental energy to coalesce within a single area on a terrestrial planet (typically Mobius, due to it being positively rich with Elemental energies) rather than within one of the ten Realms, and take on a quasi-physical form. These rare forms of Elementals can range from Mobianoid to something more beastly, although the beastlike entities are often ancient in age. These types of Elementals are often called 'Xeno-Elementals', due to not being born within any of the ten Elemental Realms. Despite possessing solid bodies, they seem to lack biological components such as blood and organs. Other information on both Quasi-Elementals and Xeno-Elementals is sparse, simply because of their incredible rarity.
There exist fairly frequently across the planet Mobius, species of Mobians that are aligned with any of the ten Elements. While they could be confused for Quasi-Elementals at a glance, they are not the same; any visibly physical attributes tied to their Element, such as Water-aligned species bearing webbing between their fingers and toes, subtle traces of gills, and translucent membranes over their eyes, and Wind-aligned species often being lithe in form with hints of feathery growths, are significantly less extreme than those the Quasi-Elementals bear. It can often difficult to tell that a particular individual is even of an Elemental subspecies, as visual traits are sometimes barely visible, if not at all.
==Deities==
The Realms are not without their representatives, primarily in the form of ancient deities that have walked the planet for eons. Chief among these are The Elemental Gods; the children of Ka, the Great Wheel of Being. The Ancient Elemental Beasts were created by Ka and the Elemental Gods to help keep the Elemental Realms in balance with each other, and to keep their influence in check; one Realm should never become stronger than the others, after all.
==Known Entities==
===Known Katharo-Elementals===
===Known Quasi-Elementals===
*Crytus the Fox - The only known Quasi-Elemental, who had been fused to a host body by scientists back in Moebius before his escape. Formerly a mercenary, he seeks a true purpose.
===Known Xeno-Elementals===
*Pyrhus the Gecko - "Born" from the lava cascades of Red Mountain, Pyrhus assumes his form as a gecko. His entire body is encased with molten lava and is often isolated from others, except those who are resistance to his nature.
*Grizelle the Doe - "Born" from the meadow flowers deep within the Soumerca forest. Her body are covered in flowers, with sharp vines surrounding her arms and legs, all of which they act as her additional "fur".
*Nihil the ??? - "Born" within the deep, pitch-black darkness within the caverns. It is genderless and its Mobian form is unknown and it rarely ever emerges from surfaces and never dares to go near harsh illuminations, such as sunlight. Unlike its other members, however, Nihil does not speak and can only be understood by others with spectral abilities.
*Syanyde the Mouse - It was rumored that Syanide existed deep within the sewage system and had ventured far deeper within the systems, including an old, abandoned canal. Despite being only two feet in size, she can prove lethal if provoked and cannot be normally approached due to her appearance looking seriously decayed, and is not only a carrier with poison in her, but also diseases unless if approached by those with resistances. Like Pyrhus, she is often isolated from the outside world. 
*Friedl the Eagle - Having been created from the strong winds from the outskirts of Windy Valley, Friedl's body is never seen, except from the form from gusts of winds with leaves blowing, giving off the form of a female harpy eagle. Despite the high winds, her physical body is real and feels solid.
*Aquos the Shark - He was "created" by forces unknown from far below sea level. Does not bode well on land unless he has a specialized breathing equipment that allows him to breathe water, even when not in the ocean. Is very vulnerable against hot weather.
*Elektra the Porcupine - Random lightning strikes resulted in the creation of a Mobian porcupine, with her quills being covered by electrical sparks that can be exceptionally painful when touched.
*Quartz the Armadillo - Said to be surfaced after a mudslide incident, his Mobian form is shaped that of an armadillo, being completely covered in mud. His body is not solid and is often covered with viscous mud, said to have Earth/Water abilities that conjures into Mud. If used with Light abilities, his body becomes a solid Diamond.
*Ignis the Sparrow - It was rumored to be formed from the brightest sun, assuming his form of a sparrow. His entire body is made of shining light and cannot handle the darkness unless an adequate light source is found.
*Rasvelgar - An ancient Xeno-Elemental of Wind that takes on the form of a four-winged, bird-like creature with an elongated body. He is said to keep a nest atop a tall mountain in southern Tralius, one that is always surrounded by a howling gale.
*Zygoren - An ancient Xeno-Elemental of Electricity that takes the form of a massive Tatzelwurm wreathed in electricity and storm clouds.
*Grimalkin - An ancient Xeno-Elemental of Darkness that takes on the form of a Schwarkatze of monstrous size. Grimalkin is known to be highly intelligent but also something of a trickster; they will intentionally lie and mislead those they believe to deserve it.
