Elemental Bois

Elemental Bois, also known as Element Bois, are a rare species of boi closely related to the Kair Boi and Aether Boi. Despite what their species name may suggest, they are not any more connected to the SpinnyBoi Elements then the average boi.
==Appearance ==
All Elemental Boiz are boiz with who wear Head Flowers, Leis, and a pair of Wings. However, Elemental Boiz come in one of four variants depending on their habitat, each with a different color palette.
Earth Elemental Boiz have green main fur, a light green undercoat, a white and yellow or RIM Head Flower, a white or green Lei, and green Wings. Sometimes, but not always, they will have leaf patterns in any shade of green.
Water Elemental Boiz have dark blue main fur , a bright blue undercoat, a white and yellow or a blue Head Flower, a white or RIM Lei, and blue Wings. Occasionally, they have splatter patterns in any shade of blue.
Air Elemental Boiz, also occasionally called Wind Elemental Boiz, have white main fur, a silver undercoat, a white and yellow or black Head Flower, a white Lei, and white Wings. Some Air Elemental Boiz have a swirl pattern in any shade of grey on their fur.
Last but not least, Fire Elemental Boiz have dark red fur, the color of charred red wood, a bright red undercoat, a white and yellow, red, or orange Head Flower, a white or tan Lei, and red Wings. Sometimes, they'll have a flame pattern in any shade of red, orange, or yellow.
==Habitat ==
While it's believed that, once upon a time, all Elemental Boiz lived in the same habitat, their habitats have long since diverged, and each species of Elemental Boi can be found in different areas.
Earth Elemental Boiz are found in lush, forested areas. Most commonly, they're seen in Sarepia Forest, but they can also be seen in the Lost Temple of Zios.
Naturally, Water Elemental Boiz live in areas that are watery, although interestingly, unlike most aquatic species, they don't have a particular preference for freshwater or saltwater. They are generally found in Crystal Sands and Balloosh.
Air Elemental Boiz live in high altitude areas where they have plenty of space to stretch their wings, such as the peaks of Mt. Shiveer and Coral Canyons. One has to wonder how the same subspecies can live in two environments with such shockingly different temperatures.
Finally, in sharp contrast to the Air Elemental Boi's notable lack of a temperature preference, Fire Elemental Boiz strongly gravitate towards hot environments, such as Kimbara Outback and Appondale.
==Traits==
While it was once believed that the powers possessed by the Elemental Boiz were connected to the Spinny Boi Elements, this has since been proven false. The unique magic each species possesses is completely unrelated to their inherent element, and may even contradict it; for instance, there have been reports of Fire Elemental Boiz possessing the Water spinny element, for instance.
Each Elemental Boi subspecies possesses the ability to control a certain substance with magic; Earth Elemental Boiz can manipulate plant life, Water Elemental Boiz can control water, Air Elemental Boiz can control air and wind, and Fire Elemental Boiz can control fire and heat.
Unlike "true" Spinny Boi Elements, Elemental Boiz cannot directly create their element. A Water Elemental Boi couldn't create water like a boi with the Water element could, for instance. However, they can create the illusion of doing so; Air Elemental Boiz can control air to create winds, Fire Elemental Boiz can enhance natural heat to start fires, and Earth Elemental Boiz can rapidly enhance the growth of seeds and saplings. 
In addition, Elemental Boiz can also change the properties of the substance they're manipulating. Water Elemental Boiz can turn freshwater to saltwater and vice versa, as well as cool water to the point of freezing, for instance.
==Diet==
Like most species of boi, all Elemental Boi varieties primarily eat beans, although they will supplement their diet with other plants, meats, and certain inorganic materials to help bolster magic production depending on the variety. 
Earth Elemental Boiz eat pretty much any leaf that isn't poisonous or won't make you break out in hives, flowers, mosses, non-poisonous mushrooms, as well as woodland creatures such as deer. In addition, they also eat wood found unappetizing to other Elemental Boiz varieties and even dirt for the natural magic.
Water Elemental Boiz eat underwater flora, such as sea plants or swamp plants depending on their environment and even algae, do to the point they are sometimes employed to help with red tides. In addition, they also eat fish, seabirds, and both aquatic and semi-aquatic mammals. Water Elemental Boiz also eat coral, anemones, seashells, and ice to help create water magic.
Air Elemental Boiz eat flora and fauna that can be found at high altitudes, such as mountain-dwelling plants, certain vegetables that can be farmed at high altitudes, and high flying birds of prey. They also eat feathers and snow, and, oddly enough, breathing in fog seems to help them generate air and wind magic.
Fire Elemental Boiz basically just eat whatever plants and animals can live in hot temperatures, such as cacti, tumbleweeds, shrub plants, and various savannah and desert animals. They'll also eat spicy peppers. Primarily, to get their magic fix, Fire Elemental Boiz eat coal, ashes, and burnt fire wood, but volcanic rocks are a rare treat for them.
==History==
Compared to the crazy backstories some boiz possess, the backstory behind the Elemental Boiz is short and sweet, and doesn't even involve any magical rituals, spontaneous transformations, or inanimate objects turning into boiz.
It's believed the four Elemental Boi subspecies all descended from a single common ancestor, likely also a boi with Wings and some form of magical power, even if it was latent. It is unknown where this "predecessor" species may have lived originally, but at some point, pockets showed in various points all over Jamaa; some in lush environments, some in watery environments, some in high altitude environments, and some in hot environments. These boiz slowly adapted to their respective habitats, eventually gaining unique magical powers because of it, likely to fight off threats from predators such as Cheese Tigers, becoming the four distinct Elemental Boiz clades we know today.
Whatever was the original Elemental Boi species was, and whether or not it still exists or if it could even be considered an Elemental Boi subspecies, is a matter of scholarly debate, resulting in many closely related species, such as Aether Boiz and Kair Boiz, being proposed as the "fifth Elemental Boi" and the originator of the species. Ultimately, however, none of these theories have ever been proven.
==Trivia==
*A group of Elemental Boiz is an Alchemy. In addition, each subtype of Elemental Boi has it's own group name; a group of Earth Elemental Boiz is a Growth, a group of Water Elemental Boiz is a Puddle, a group of Air Elemental Boiz is a Storm, and a group of Fire Elemental Boiz is a Blaze.
*The Elemental Boiz were the very first species Butterflyunicorn ever created on this wiki, and as a result, aged quite poorly, prompting her to revamp the species in 2023.
**Originally, the species' four variants were Fire, Water, Ice, and Chaos Elemental Boiz, with Chaos Elemental Boiz being an artificially created variant from an attempt to recreate "the original Elemental Boi" and having the power to control fire, water, and ice. The rewrite replaced Ice and Chaos with Air and Earth to better align with the classical elements.
**The design and habitats of the Air Elemental Boiz is based off the scrapped Ice Elemental Boi variant.
**The Ice and Chaos Elemental Boiz may eventually make a return, likely as a separate but related species.
