Drakkari are an elementally aligned race, with each Drakkar having one and only one element. They are born with this alignment and retain it throughout their life until their death.
There are nineteen elements, split into six different tiers, all with their own specific coloration, powers, and breath weapon. For tiers above Base, there is a notation beside the level - ie. "Secondary (Fire x Water)" - that tells what type of cross is most likely to produce the given element.
