Elemental Genie

The genies are born of the elementals themselves and normally they are found on the elemental plane. When they do find themselves in the material plane they are seen as powerful entities and sometimes even worshipped. On rare occasions they choose to sire a child with a mortal and in even rarer cases this child is imbued with the Genies innate magical abilities and elemental connection. These rare cases create sorcerers that not only have innate magical ability but also some innate martial ability. The kind of Genie they are sired from, dictates the elemental affinity they have.
