Elemental Magic

Elemental Magic is magic relating to the planet.

There are five subset affinities

• Air Magic 
• Earth Magic 
• Fire Magic 
• Water Magic 
• Plant Magic 

It is more common for the Gifted to have one element, but it is possible to be Gifted with more- even all five. Mastering multiple affinities of this branch, excluding Plant, can then be combined to create additional techniques:

• Air + Water = Ice
• Air + Fire = Lightning
• Earth + Fire = Lava
• Earth + Water = Mud
• Water + Fire = Mist
• Fire + Earth + Air = Glass* & Mirrors
• Fire + Earth + Water = Smithing*

*With enough skill and practice a caster could craft with just the gift alone. It would be more exhausting than doing so by conventional means, but it allows for more flexibility with special imbuements, for example the javelin handed down to Cadmus or the Mage Glass at The Garden.
Air, Earth, Fire, and Water and also be combined externally (unison raid), but it is extremely difficult and usually requires practice and trust.
