Elementals

Elemental Incarnates (Or simply Elementals) are a group of magical creatures which originate on the Elemental Realms, and occasionally cross over into the Mortal realm.
On the Elemental Realms, Elementals appear to be creatures of flesh and blood, with only slight resemblances to their element. There is a large variety of creatures on these realms, in all different shapes and sizes. However, when they manifest on the Mortal Realm, they appear to be made entirely from their respective element. Additionally, when Elementals manifest in such a way, they are created from already existing materials in the Mortal Realm. For example, a water elemental may form from a pond. Because of this, Elementals cannot appear in a place that has none of its respective element.
Most Elementals are mindless beasts. Such creatures can easily be summoned and controlled by elemental magic users.
=== Higher Elementals ===
Higher Elementals are more intelligent creatures, able to freely move between the Realms, and able to command vast elemental power. Such creatures often consider themselves the rulers of all other Elementals. Before the creation of the Dragon Sovereigns, a group of "Elemental Lords" ruled over elemental magic, and made pacts with mortals to grant magical power. After the dragons arrived, they quickly subdued the Elemental Lords and ended their tyranny.
The Elemental Lord still exist, and have a fierce rivalry with the dragons. They still occasionally make pacts with mortals, but have to be more subtle lest they attract the ire of the Dragon Sovereigns.
Higher Elementals are only able to be summoned and commanded by the most powerful magic users.
