Elementals
Elementals, better known as Ath'runai in their native tongue, are a race of near-human creatures native to the lands surrounding the region of Adewald. They are of similar build to humans, with the exception being those with earth characteristics. Those embodying the aspect of earth are capable of growing to a size and build more comparable to orcs.
From the time they are young, an elemental is taught how to better attune themselves with the element they embody. Years of meditation and strict mental discipline are a common staple among those seeking to truly master their latent abilities.
Due to an elemental's nature, it is not uncommon for most to bare little resemblance to others of their kind. This holds true even for those who share a corresponding element. An elemental may appear wreathed in flames, possess bark or stone skin, at times mistaken for elemental spirits or even resemble creatures like dryads and nymphs. Or, they may appear almost entirely human, baring little indication of what they truly are. Regardless of appearance, should one of these people call upon their gifts there will be no denying what they truly are.
While it is most common to find members of this people living among one another, it is not uncommon for those bold or curious few to venture out into the world of men. Due to their training, most elementals make for highly capable mages and spell casters.
