=How do I know what am I?=
So, what made me want to write a story and make a comic out of it, was a symbol that I made while bored at school one day and decided to do more and well, here we are.
There are so far 7(8 counting the non-elementals) elements that I want to be part of that story, āwater,fire,earth,wind,light and darkā each has a backstory as to why they appeared on the world. And also each element gets like um an upgrade? Not precisely an upgrade, is more like, they understand more their element and their ability grows and so they can use make more with it.
Since when I started to write the backstory of each symbol, it was actual gods, of each element, but I changed that as to special people who were the first beings that could control elements, and to know which element each had, I use the symbols to represent that, but the symbols are also part of their body, like a tattoo,Ā but people before them didnāt have tattooās, so the tattoo that represented ānormalā people started appearing cause there were beings that came, well, normal.
Anyway, here are some backstory of the elements that Iāll use.
Water: Mostly, people with this element are calm and serene,Ā pacifist between them and others includingĀ ānormal'sā. Some of their origins say they used to live near rivers,lakes, and ocean shores. Just in rare and extreme cases they would enter in conflicts. Though they will help without a doubt just to keep peace.
Fire: Theyāre mostly hard to talk with, but once trust is made, is easier to talk with them, though always respectful towards others. They have/had a lot of conflicts with the ānormalāsā, mostly cause back in the beginning of their culture they used to sacrifice ānormalāsā for being like that. Though after the wars and their āgodā disappeared/died their relation has gotten better.
Earth: This is people that often had floods, so they were to live on the mountains and establish settlements. The āearth godā found this and got really impressed by what they accomplished by themselves so he asked to live here and thought them how they could control it and just use it to protect their village. They are really over protective people, women raised to be tender; men to be more aggressive but both specialized in heavy duty.
Wind: They are even more aggressive than earth people, though they were pacifist but betrayal, destruction, and killing of their people, they rarely let any other race to visit their palace unless they have contacts inside. Fire people helped them on the reconstruction and invented a floating city. This city those have a special reserved place on the ground but rarely used, only certain festivals or in case special repairs needed. They control the post service of the continent.
Light: Some scouters found a cave filled with scribbles on the walls, and the a person there, almost at the verge of dying, so for saving him/her, he/she taught them how to use magic, but this magic was as to help others and not completely benefit you. Itās best attribute is defense This magic works better with the cooperation of a darkness user.
Darkness: The āgoddessā of darkness is sisterās with ālightāās āgodā and when she went back to look for her sister in the cave, and didnāt fine her, went on the search for her, months passed but she couldnāt find her, then she saw on a road someone getting mugged, saved him, and turns out was the king of a kingdom near by, but his soldiers died trying to protect him. She got him back to his kingdom and became the right hand of the king and got asked to teach darkness magic but to only soldiers of high caliber or people that were competent enough. Itās best attribute is the offensive. If used with the helped of light user, works better.
Spiritual/Soul: This is a āgodā by mistake. Created from darkness and light āgoddessesā but since both went missing, he thought he was āfreeā to do what he wanted(he wasnāt bind to anyone anyway) and found a small village to live in. With his help, the village grew to be know as āghost townā and they control the biggest graveyard(cause of the wars), also because the can summon spirits, that either passed away or from another dimension. This latter became to be know as āfamiliarsā but only can be used by lightĀ and darkness users. This familiars can only be summon by gathering special ingredients and a jewel fabricated by the light/darkness magic, or the spirit/soul of a living, but this is not used, as it has a small chance of ever working, this is know cause in the last war, ānormalāsā tried to use this method but always resulting and failures and a lot of dead people.
āNormalā: People who started to appear after the arrival of the āgodsā though the only difference from them and the people that was before the āgodsā arrival, is the tattooās on their bodies. Huge discomforts come from this people cause a few of them we either exiled or abandon their elemental villages to found their own, so they have the most diverse of cultures, but their beginnings were a little rough, though they helped the most on the civil war between light and darkness kingdoms but since they betrayed the wind people, and caused mayor destruction when since they were the mastermind behind the latest war between all the kingdoms. They got spared since without them, technology wouldnāt be as it is and not all of them were completely bad. So a deal came to be and one of them, selected by the water āgodā itself before itās disappearance, the biggest and multi cultural kingdom was born. Itās name āPulis Ibaā.
