In the world of Elkan, genasi are rare except in regions with an active portal to one of the elemental planes. Each of the elemental planes has one major gateway that allows travelers to move between planes. Each of these portals are either remote, guarded, or difficult to reach.
Air Genasi
Air genasi are usually the descendants of mortals and djinni. They can bound through the air effortlessly, and often bear other signs of their elemental lineage, such as a slight aura of fog, pale blue skin, or hair that stands on end.
Cantrips: Floating Disk
Damage Resistance: Sonic
Language: You can read and write Primordial and speak its Auran dialect.
Bounding Leap
Your jump height and distance are doubled. Thus, your running long jump distance is 2 x your strength score, and your jump height is 2 x (3 + your strength modifier).
In Elkan, air genasi are most common in the small maritime towns near the Blasted Steppes. There, a massive portal to the Plane of Air in the sky is used by djinni and elementals to exile their criminals to the Material Plane in Elkan. There, they often terrorize the settlers, but many come to live among mortals and accept their new lives there. Their descendants are usually Genasi.
Earth Genasi
Earth genasi are usually the descendants of mortals and dao. They are dense and strong as stone, and often bear other signs of their elemental lineage, such as earthen brown-grey skin, a wide build, or rocky protrusions from their body.
Cantrips: Mending
Damage Resistance: Electric
Language: You can read and write Primordial and speak its Terran dialect.
Sturdy
You have advantage on any saving throw against an effect that would knock you prone or push you.
In Elkan, earth genasi rarely congregate in groups. The Plane of Earth itself is so hostile that the tunnel cities there are constantly shifting, and mortals almost never live there. On the Material Plane, it's said that the portal to the Plane of Earth is deep below the Ashen Mountains on the Morventry border, but the tunnels of the underworld in the region are extremely hostile. There is a rumored secret organization of earth genasi on the pirate island of Lennington, but most genasi don't have a sense of community or connection to their home.
Fire Genasi
Fire genasi are usually the descendants of mortals and efreeti. They can harmlessly ignite their hair, eyes, or other body parts, and often bear other signs of their elemental lineage, such as a burnt smell, red skin, or flame-like hair.
Cantrips: Produce Flame
Damage Resistance: Fire
Language: You can read and write Primordial and speak its Ignan dialect.
Living Lantern
You harmlessly ignite a part of your body: your hair, your eyes, or even your skin, shedding light for all to see.
Bonus Action - Self - Magical
You shed bright light in a 30 ft. radius and dim light for another 30 ft. beyond that (60 ft. total). If you become unconscious or use this ability again, the light goes out.
Fire genasi in Elkan are rare. The main entrance to the Elemental Plane of Fire, the Solar portal platform known as Sol, is the planet's source of sunlight, and angels control traffic through that portal strictly. Genasi are often the children of summoned elementals, or mortal planar travelers who had affairs while in the Plane of Fire.
Water Genasi
Water genasi are usually the descendants of mortals and marids. They glide through water with ease and can easily adapt to being underwater. They often bear other signs of their elemental lineage, such as rippling blue skin, translucent or morphing hair, or appearing as if perpetually soaked.
Cantrips: Rain
Damage Resistance: Acid
Language: You can read and write Primordial and speak its Aquan dialect.
Swim Speed: Equal to walking speed.
Amphibious
You can breath underwater in addition to breathing air like other humanoids.
Water genasi in Elkan mostly live in underwater communities, but a fair number come to live with humans and elves in the Isle of Takat. Nearby, a portal in a deep underwater trench to the Plane of Water allows many abyssal creatures to cross over. Over time, cults worshipping these abyssal leviathans have summoned elementals into Takat, and now a fair portion of the population are genasi.
