=Elemental-Bodied=
 <onlyinclude>Elemental-bodied are [[Summary::Humanoids humanoid creatures composed of the primal elements]], that form naturally on the elemental planes composed . They are closely related to elementals, and are intended to be a playable form of the primal elementsbasic elemental species.]]<noinclude>
==Personality==
 
Elemental-bodied have a wide range of personality, as varied as the primal forces and building blocks of creation that they represent. Many elemental-bodied, however, fall to one of two extremes of either stoicism or emotionality, and a few can be caused to switch between them. A stoic elemental-bodied feels and expresses nearly no emotion, while an emotional elemental-bodied feels their emotions strongly and suddenly, changing at the slightest cause.
==Physical Description==
 
Elemental-bodied are formed of the primal stuff of the elements, although even Air and Fire are somewhat more solid than one might expect. They vaguely resemble androgyne, genderless humans, with no secondary sex characteristics of any kind. They average about 6' tall. Further, they have an internal structure of different forms of elements with vital organs and similar.
==Relations==
 
Elemental-bodied distrust efreet and dao, as the latter often enslave the former. Even djinn and marid are looked on with some suspicion. They get along well with [[SRD:Elemental Type|elementals]], who they perceive as kin. Nearly every elemental-bodied on the Material Plane is a stranger to the land, with little preconceived notions other than those it might have heard from friends and siblings who had been summoned.
==Alignment==
 
Elemental-bodied tend toward neutrality, although they can be found in any alignment.
==Lands==
 
Elemental-bodied live in their appropriate elemental planes. Sometimes they carve out kingdoms of themselves and like-minded elementals. Other times they're enslaved by genies. Still other times they live solitary lives among their appropriate element.
==Religion==
 
As planar creatures, elemental-bodied are not noted for their piety to any religion. A few worship appropriate elemental gods or the essences of the plane itself. Fewer worship mortals' gods.
==Language==
 
Elemental-bodied are born with an innate knowledge of the appropriate elemental language: Aquan, Auran, Ignan, or Terran.
==Names==
 
Elemental-Bodied are given names by those near them. They have a very practical view of names, taking them only as unique identifiers; they do not name themselves unless necessary, and will shed an old name when the people who use it are gone. They are, however, canny enough to recognize and rebel against derogatory names.
