What do y'all think about elemental characters based on water & ice? Aestheticslly it makes sense for ice and water to be separate characters but scientifically they are the same element in different temperatures. Should I make my water-based elemental character able to control ice as well? Or should I make another character based on ice?Dec 11, 2020

I think its fun to have like main water category but then the elementals could be more towards one aspect of it. Using water as the example it is still a water element but could be any of the states of water! Though really there is no way to do elementals wrong since they are so fun and cool 😄
Just an idea, but what you can do is a character with an élément and a sub element
Like water/ice and water/vapor can be two different character because they are at different ends of the water spectrum X3
It can apply to earth, with earth/crystal and earth/lava
With fire it would be fire/thunder, fire/light
And air, air/pression and air/gas

But that's just an idea ^^`
Do what you want! If you want to separate ice and water as different elements you can do that. If you want to make one element stronger, (or be scientifically accurate) you can make both into one. Your headworld, your rules!
