Elementals

There are supposedly many different types of Elementals in the world of the Elementals trilogy, on Vallen and other islands. As of Battle Born, we have only seen or heard mention of four: Ice Wolves, Scorch Dragons, Thunder Lions, and Stone Bears.

Elementals are creatures in the Elementals trilogy that have power over specific elements and can turn into creatures associated with those elements. For example, Ice Wolves can attack with ice spears when in wolf form, and Scorch Dragons can breathe dragonsfire when in dragon form. Thunder Lions and Stone Bears are stated to have control over wind and rocks, respectively.

If two different Elementals who actually transform have children, the child will have extraordinary powers, such as Anders and Rayna's Icefire.

It should be noted that you need some type of ancestral link to an Elemental in order to become one, meaning that if you are an Ice Wolf, you need to have had an ancestor that was or is an Ice Wolf.

Many Elementals, especially Ice Wolves, consider themselves separate from humans, acting as their defenders.
