Elemental
An elemental is a mythic supernatural being that is described in occult and alchemy, alchemical works from around the time of the European Renaissance, and particularly elaborated in the 16th century works of Paracelsus. According to Paracelsus and his subsequent followers, there are four categories of elementals, which are gnomes, undine (alchemy), undines, sylphs, and salamanders in folklore and legend, salamanders. These correspond to the four Empedoclean elements of antiquity: earth (classical element), earth, water (classical element), water, air (classical element), air, and fire (classical element), fire, respectively. Terms employed for beings associated with alchemical elements vary by source and gloss. History The Paracelsian concept of elementals draws from several much older traditions in mythology and religion. Common threads can be found in folklore, animism, and anthropomorphism.
