Homebrew Elementalist Species Details

Molded by their passions, Elementalist blood is a sacred type of race. Elementalists can mold the world around them with their passions of natures power, harnessing it to their advantage. Elementalists often aren’t social or all that friendly, they have a tendency to either be stone cold or be ruthless dictators in their search for power.

Lone wolf

Elementalists often are cast away from their homes for being narcissistic, believing that their gods gift to the world for their special abilities to influence nature to do their bidding. Standing at 6ft, they can strike terror in those who appose them, along with their ability to use nature to attack those who appose them, it will make the enemy rethink their choices.

while they are often powerful, they don’t start out at that power, it takes months if not years to gain control of their powers, some Elementalists get so power hungry that they become ruthless dictators. Some Elementalists  Never get powerful enough to use they passion to their advantage and become an outcast until they become smart enough to use their abilities for good or for worse.

Hunger for power

While not being the nicest race, Elementalists do have one thing in common with all others, their hunger for power. Even the most trained Elementalists to ever walk this mortal plane have trouble controlling their power lust. There are two ways for an Elementalist to increase their power, their soul and their passion. If they are in a hairy situation and their soul is losing it’s connection with its vessel, their soul can connect with their passion to create more powerful and faster attacks, by the point where their soul is no longer connected to their vessel, the soul will fuse with the passion causing the passion to come alive.

an alive passion is very dangerous, it has no memory of the vessel or anything from the vessel’s life. Alive passions are known as passionists. As a passionist starts living as a functional vessel for the soul, the passionist will slowly start forming a new body for the soul to inhabit, allowing for the soul to live once more, without knowing its origins. The passionist defuses with the soul, in which the soul attaches to a new Elementalist body, and the passion becomes immortalized as a rune on the new Elementalist’s skin. The newer an Elementalist is, the more runes they will have.

passionists

passionists are strange to say the least. Passionists, as we have talked about, are what’s left after an Elementalist dies. Passionists can’t speak to most being, the only way that can speak is if someone knows their language. Passionists can speak to those who know their language even though they dont make sound. Passionists make noises that are too low pitch for anyone to listen to unless you know how to listen to the sounds that are that low.

passionists are some of the most calm creatures imaginable. They don’t attack unless provoked and they act much more defensively then any other creatures. When they form a bond, they act much like a house cat or dog, you can even train them. After some time, however they do form a new vessel for the soul to inhabit again. Once in the Elementalist form again, they will leave behind a small rune that, if written on a piece of paper, will summon the passionist again and will stay in this form forever until the paper is destroyed or the one who wrote the rune dies.
