The World is composed of the four Elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water, each of which has its own Elemental God. These Gods are concerned with the maintenance and running of the World, and have numerous Elementals under Them, who aid Them in the performance of Their tasks. Certain other Gods Who also have Elementals to assist Them are sometimes also classified as Elemental (and are shown as such in the list of Gods).
Elementals are very shy, and are invisible to human eyes. They are therefore rarely encountered by people. The Elemental's task is Lawfully defined, and He is rigidly obliged to perform it, but His true nature is Chaotic. Hence the unpredictability of the weather, for example.
