Primordian - Background in Dromaria | World Anvil

Primordian - Background


You are a primordian, a being born of the world itself, embodying the essence of the elements you grew up in. Whether you are a dragon, an ember, or something entirely unique, you possess the innate ability to manipulate the elements, seamlessly integrating them into your being.   Your role as a primordian imbues you with a deep sense of responsibility to maintain the balance of nature and the elements. Because you have a connection to the forces that shape the world, your actions reflect your dedication to ensuring the safety of both Dromaria and the god of balance, Groman.   Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Nature
Tool Proficiencies: Choose one from Glassblower's Tools, Painter's Supplies, or Weaver's Tools
Equipment: Select one set of tools or supplies, a container holding a sample of your associated element, a set of common clothes, and a trophy from a kill
Feature: Elemental Insight
As a primordian, your connection to the elements grants you an innate understanding of their presence and behavior. With your Elemental Insight, you possess the ability to tap into this understanding and offer assistance to others. Your insight encompasses recalling pertinent knowledge about element-related subjects, detecting the presence of nearby elemental phenomena or disturbances, and occasionally predicting natural disasters before they occur.   Feature: Elemental Intrigue
Your presence captures the attention of those around you, drawing curious glances wherever you go. Your distinct aura, infused with the essence of the elements, sets you apart as an intriguing figure. This attention can be both a nuisance and an opportunity, as it opens doors to unique encounters and advantageous connections.   People are naturally fascinated by your elemental connection, and they are eager to learn more about your origins and the powers you possess. Scholars, noble lords, and influential individuals, as well as everyday folk, are intrigued by your presence and eager to hear stories of your heritage.   You can leverage this interest to your advantage, gaining access to people and places that might otherwise be closed off. Your reputation as a primordian grants you a certain level of prestige and intrigue, allowing you and your traveling companions to forge connections with notable figures in society. Whether seeking advice, requesting assistance, or simply sharing tales of your affinity, you have the ability to captivate and engage those around you.
Suggested Characteristics
As a primordian you are born of the world and possess elemental connections that change your identity. Who you are and how you act is likely linked to the elements you are connected to. Many times flaws come from a bit too much of a good thing, and for those connected to raw power it is doubly so.  
Ember Society
  If you are a primordian there is a very high chance you are an ember. Here are a list of places you were likely to have grown up depending on your elemental affinity.   Lava Ember
Lava embers predominantly hail from Purut in Erimata and Soot on Pathriam. They are the rarest type of ember and are known for their incredible strength coupled with a short temper. While embers are generally well-received on Dromaria, people exercise caution when dealing with an angered lava ember.   Stone Ember
Stone embers are the most commonly seen, and regarded as the most closely connected to their element. They are renowned for their unwavering resolve and protective nature. Stone embers are commonly found on the continent of Pathriam in the city of Stonehome, or the towns of Burrow and Rubbleslab.   Forest Ember
Forest embers are reclusive, often shrouded in mystery. It is rumored that they possess an uncanny ability to move effortlessly among trees and plants, becoming one with nature itself. While the true motives of forest embers remain unknown, they are said to have substantial populations originating from the Dragon's Nest on Pathriam and the Su Forest on Erimata.   Sand Ember
Proud and somewhat prickly, sand embers are the second least populous among the ember types. Fearless and stronger than they appear, they overwhelm unsuspecting opponents much like the sands they control. Sand embers can be found traversing the dunes of The Hush in Erimata or burrowed within the sands of the Umber Desert on Pathriam.   Swamp Ember
The term "swamp" may not fully encompass the diversity of embers with water manipulation abilities, as they can be found in oceans, lakes, and various water-rich environments. Swamp embers, known for their mastery, are highly sought-after companions for adventurers seeking aquatic expertise. They can be found thriving in locations such as Viscino Swamp on Pathriam, the Bastard's Bog on Zan'deil, and maintain a significant presence in the triton city of Flotsodom.
