Radiant Smile
The physical form of an element is usually indistinguishable because they radiate a bright aura of elemental energy at all times. The color and characteristics of this aura are based on personal preference but are also influenced by their most recent meal as well as their current mood. They produce this barrier to protect themselves since while their magical prowess is great, their physical bodies are rather frail. If you were to gain the trust of an element however and be allowed the honor of speaking with them face to face then you would note that they look totally identical to the average human.Whimsical Wanderers
The element race is by far the most elusive and mysterious of the half celestials due in part to their nomadic nature. The blood of the god of freedom flows through their veins and indulging in their natural wanderlust is an important part of their life cycle. A young element will not mature into an adult with time but rather when they have accumulated enough pure elemental essence from Etheria. The energy must be of a sufficient purity and a single element must absorb multiple types of energy in order to grow. Because of this most elements are constantly travelling from place to place searching for their next meal.Friendly Disposition
While elements are typically solitary creatures in the long run, most adore making friends as they travel around. One fortunate enough to befriend a wandering element will find them to be a charming addition to any caravan. They are very agreeable and energetic, always excited to see new things and meet new people, even when their curious nature lands them into trouble it is hard not to be endeared by their mischievous behavior and quick wit. The true worth of an element travelling companion however lays in their capacity to entertain. Almost all elements have an innate gift for story telling and are always waiting for someone to ask them to regale one of their harrowing tales of an adventure that they may or may not have been a part of. Many also have a talent for music and it is well known that some of the best bards in the land use their magical aura to set the mood and to dazzle their crowds.Age
Elements don't really come with an expiration date per say because their development is tied to the quantity and quality of energy that they absorb but they cannot live forever either. As they age they require energy with a higher purity and there are only so many sources. Because of this elements usually are considered mature at around 20 years old and live anywhere from about 100 to 300 years, though there have been documented cases of one living far beyond that.Aura of Protection
You maintain an elemental aura of your choosing around your body at all times granting you resistance to that type of damage. The element the aura is made up of may change but only if a magical item or location with a high affinity for the desired element is found. In the case that an item is used, the energy is absorbed and the item is no longer magical. You may use a bonus action to empower your elemental aura with energy bringing it into a battle ready state. This state lasts for 1 minute and does 1d4 damage of the type of your aura to any creature that targets you for a melee attack regardless of whether they hit you or not. Additionally this aura enhances any spells or weapon attacks of the same damage type as your aura allowing you to add your proficiency bonus to your damage roll. After you charge your aura in this way you may not do so again until you take a short or long rest.Languages. Common(humanoid), Celestial
