Primordials

Primordials are ancient beings, similar to Gods and Omnigods in many ways with a few key differences. They were created in the Great Creation by Crunky itself, and they are theorized to be an accident among the Great Creation. This stems from the fact that they were eventually destroyed by the Omnigods, and that they each embody an Element, and are considered to be the master of their own Element. Currently, there are 6 primordials still in existence, excluding the Divine Beasts. Records suggest there were as many as 56 at the Great Creation, and 342 by the time they were slain.

Primordials are each in control of one single Element, whether it be a Major or Minor Element. It is proven that there can be more than one primordial for a given Element, and normally a Major Element could have as many as 8 different primordials that embody that Element. The only exceptions to this rule are the Librarian and the Lord of Hell, making it possible that these entities are should not be classified as primordials

## Origin

During the Great Creation, Crunky created the Elements as one of the multiverse's main sources of both chaos and order. However, due to unknown circumstances, the Elements created eventually gained sentience and became the beings known as primordials. Unable to admit his faults, Crunky let them live for a short while and allowed them to govern and shape the prototypes of the Crunkiverses.

As the Beginning Times went on, the Primordials began to grow more chaotic, and balance was beginning to be lost among the Crunkiverses. Furthermore, the amount of Element was out of balance, with an extreme overabundance of Dirt, and almost a complete lack of Light. Due to this, Crunky and the Soulsmith created the Omnigods in secret. Eventually, Crunky tasked the new Omnigod Zek with the goal of killing all the Primordials, and got pretty far too, starting a period of time many deem the end of the beginning times. When Zek faced the Beast Primordial, however, it was deemed that he needed a new weapon. The Time Engineer would be the one to create this legendary weapon, known as the Omniblade. Unfortuantely for Zek, though, by the time it was finished Ifrit began leading the campaign to protect the Primordials, and Zek simply wasn't powerful enough to defeat Ifrit even with the Omniblade. Outraged by this, Crunky created a new Omnigod, Z'or'aq'ith, to weild the Omniblade and defeat both Ifrit and the Beast Primordial, the latter of which lead to the creation of the seven Divine Beasts. After the defeat of the beast primordial, Zek went back to killing the primordials and used the Omniblade to kill all but 9 of them. This would eventually lead to the Grand Vortex and the War of Gods.

## Powers and Abilities

Primordials were a supremely powerful race of beings, although due to the massive differences from each instance of a primordial, it is difficult to consider them a cohesive race. They possessed a potentially infinite knowledge, and an incredible attack power and endurance. The only beings stronger than them were the Omnigods, as well as higher dimensional beings such as the Time Engineer, the Soulsmith, and Crunky.

The ability that likely caused their destruction was their ability to create Elements. This ability created the remaining primordials not present at Great Creation and is the origin of all Minor Elements. An extremely powerful Major Elemental primordial could, given enough time, create a new Element and thus creating the new primordial. For example, the great Dirt primordial Rodon was responsible for the creation of the Minor Element Dust.
