Elemental Kin




Legend has it that the cataclysm  that sundered the Darrani, cursing all of humanity to live as monsters, struck Fenorra with such  force that it shattered the land it struck into  five shards. It is from the cursed shards of Fenorra its self that the Earth, Wind, Fire, Water and a mysterious fifth Kin are said to be born. If the legend is true no one knows what became of the fifth Kin, though tales are told of Kin that were so changed by the curse of Fenorra that they do not embody an element, rather they embody the curse itself.

Mentality

All Elemental kin feel a close bond with Fenorra though the general demeanor of each type of kin is closely related to the element that they are kin to.
  • Stone Kin tend to be very stubborn not swaying easily from their stance on any subject.
  • Wind Kin are easily taken to flights of fancy. Their attention never stays on one thing for too long.
  • Fire kin are very passionate in their lives. Taking on tasks with fierce passion and determination.
  • Water Kin tend to be very adaptable and willing to go with the flow.

Society

As long as anyone can remember the Kin have had a very turbulent existence. Though the open wars of the past have ceased in the face of the onslaught of the Twilight Elves, The Elemental Kin still battle amongst themselves. Because of the feud between the opposing elements the Elemental Kin have never been able to unite under one banner and have lived amongst the societies of the other races of Fenorra for generations.

Needless to say the Kin oppose each other as the natural elements do.  Fire hates Water, and Air hates Stone.  However, they seem to very much “out of sight out of mind” types of beings.  They will only go after a Kin of an opposing element if they see one.  Sometimes the grudge gets too thick and they will fight until there is nothing left, hunting each other out.  Surely if they are in the same room. It would take some extreme self control for them not to destroy each other.

Generally how Elemental Kin may feel towards other races:

    Caementum:   Like us they are pieces of Fenorra torn from the land.
    Calicantars:   Drunkards and brutes. That being said there is no one better to have at your side in battle.
    Dracons:   A bit hard headed at times but all in all a honorable people.
    Dúrla:  Seen as living breathing trees, they are an interesting breed.
    Elves:   These are our kindred.
    Humans:   Some how they resisted the curse. Much can be learned from them.
    Kobolds:  Always watch your back around these ones.
    Night Walkers:  They may look human by day but don’t be fooled.
    Patchworks:   Though a strange and cursed people, they have never bothered our cause.
    Pixies:   Friendly enough
    Shing Guai:   Heard that they are different than Vampires, though we are unsure of this.
    Werewolves:  Best to keep a distance from these people. They’re far to unpredictable to be safe.
