The requested review (mainly trait focused):

  • The image is nice. The caption should be an image source if you can find it. Or in this case, the photographer I guess. (couldn't find either)
  • For the Elemental Body, I'd say just put the resistance under their respective subraces. Like the genasi, who are very similar. Languages can also be split among the subraces as a trait. (Ok, thanks.)
  • Generally, there is no absolute advantage in a skill. It is usually situational. Like advantage in perception but only using X senses, or advantage in stealth in X environment. (I have some unarmed attacks, so I'm just trying to balance that out between the five.)
  • Wind nature does not make any sense, as PCs do not have DCs (difficulty for saving throws and checks, usually). They have Armor Class (AC). I believe the nature of it to be unamrored defense, in which case, it should be modeled after the unarmored defense trait of the tortle or something similar rather than a flat bonus. (That's on me, I fixed it.)

Overall, not too many egregious problems. Spells need to be italicized and linked to their source (had a bit of trouble finding Xenae's spell myself because it's homebrew). There are some capitalization errors here and there (Elemental Earth? You mean the Elemental Plane of Earth?).--Yanied (talk) 15:47, 20 January 2020 (MST) (--Flamestarter (talk) 06:48, 21 January 2020 (MST))



Perhaps use Storm instead of lightning. --AriaVehemente (talk) 00:22, 21 January 2020 (MST)

But storm elemental really isn't a thing. Lightning elemental on the other hand is a homebrew DnD monster that someone has made on here, so I kind of have a template for it. Although, I understand where you're coming from. --Flamestarter (talk) 06:36, 21 January 2020 (MST)
