Water [i]
“In the beginning, without the Pourers, civilization couldn’t have existed in the deserts, out in the open seas, on small salt bound islands. Technologies sprout up as the Pourers’ diminished in number. Filtration systems, deep wells leading to drilled aquifers. As for the city of Vaia, the aqueducts and The Twin River coming off the snowcaps of the northern mountains provided enough. The largest employer of Pourers is the Nutricia Conglomerate.”
First Flow of Water
These elementals will almost always follow the path of least resistance. Emotion is the only force drives them outside of their comfort zones of going with the flow. Joy and sadness. They live for the humors of irony.
Note: Elemental Magic may also be considered Arcane Arts. Feel free to eschew the elemental angle for other reasoning that suits the character.
Core Effect Trees: Elemental
Root Effect Tree: 10 xps.

The Fountain inside you is followed by Five Bubble Sprites. They generally remain about the size of a bead (1 cubic centimeter) and let out a single raindrop every thirty seconds or so.

The Pourer
Ulm Ella Aqua, Mother of the Pourers in the Southern Wastes is a stoic statue in the Meza Bazaar. She stands as example to those blessed with elementalism. Slowly turned stone mineralizing drinking water for hundreds of thousand Mezans. Where she stands at the center of the aqueducts of the city her life-giving and preserving Bubble Sprites still pour.
Some say they hear her soft song coming from the statue, the song an omen heralding the coming of most violent storms.
