Hey so here's a bit of prologue:
THIS IS NOT AN ADVERT FOR A SERVER and any comments suggesting otherwise will be eliminated with extreme prejudice. This is me putting on the forums an idea I've had to share with you. Please respect that.
So for a long while I've wanted to take on the challenge of creating my own fictional universe. In my personal notebook, nestled between pages chock-full of science, lies an island of fantasy that is 17 pages long. In the next few posts I'll be showing you what those pages contain.

Elemental system of Khaordum:
In this universe, similar to Mesalia there are six elements of aether, nether, fire, water, air, and earth. That's where that similarity ends. Here's how things work in Khaordum:
Lumial elements:
- Aether
- Fire
- Air
Umbrial elements:
- Nether
- Water
- Earth
Aether and Nether are known together as the Celestial elements.
Fire and Air are known together as the Aerial elements.
Water and Earth are known together as the Terrestial elements.
Each element has a standard form and an enhanced form that is far more difficult to manipulate.
Element : Standard form | Enhanced form
Aether : Energy | Light
Fire : Fire | Lava
Air : Air | Lightning
Nether : Dark Energy | Shadow
Water : Water | Ice
Earth : Earth | Crystal
