# Characters.AGameOfChance: The Promethians are an ancient magical race known for attaining absolute mastery over [[PlayingWithFire fire]] and [[ShockAndAwe lightning]]-based magics. Not so normal now, huh?
# Characters.AGeeksGuideCorporationOfOccultResearchAndExtermination: Mainly attacks using magic circles that blast opponents with fire, ice, or lightning.
# Characters.BloodstainedRitualOfTheNight (1/3): Her sub-weapons allow her to use a variety of elemental abilities, such as lightning orbs that cling to the ceiling, and wind funnels that shoot forward and then climb up. She can also fire seeds that sprout from the ground to give health powerups.
# Characters.{{Encantadia}}: FourElementEnsemble: The four of them are the keepers of the Gems of Air, Fire, Water and Earth, and have '''[[ElementalPowers powers related to their respective element]]'''.



# Characters.HecksingUlumateCrconikals: It can shoot fire, electricity, poison, and... ''[[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking water]]''. It later adds explosives after merging itself with Alucard's tank.
# Characters.MakenKiProtagonists: Kagezuchi (her [[PlayingWithFire fire elemental]]) and Igazuchi ([[ShockAndAwe lightning elemental]]) are the two she most relies on in battle. But, if need be, she can also summon Nozuchi (her earth elemental) who has power over trees, plants, and has the ability to heal her. Himegami is so adept with them that she's rarely ever had to use her Maken.



# Characters.PokemonTheSeriesTeamRocketTrio: Among the many Pokémon he has owned, his three most common types are Grass, Poison and Psychic.



# GranblueFantasy.TropesDToH: Characters come in one of six elements, [[PlayingWithFire Fire]], [[BlowYouAway Wind]], [[DishingOutDirt Earth]], [[MakingASplash Water]], [[LightEmUp Light]] and [[CastingAShadow Dark]].
# Literature.IronWidow: The mecha each have specialties based on the five Chinese elements: fire, earth, metal, water, and wood. Wood types are the most conductive of qi and have the highest transformation potential, fire types can channel qi into powerful blasts, etc. Different pilots have different specialties too, with Zetian specializing in metal (control and precision), and Shimin in fire (power and destruction).



# Myth.BetiPahuinMythology: Nkoum Akok Ndong Bibang of the thorn tribe fought against Engouang Ondo with sunlight, rain, and fire as weapons.



# Recap.CharmedS1E15IsThereAWoogyInTheHouse: (re: EarlyInstallmentWeirdness) The Nexus is revealed to be equidistant from five elements, but they use the five Taoist elements (water, fire, wood, metal and earth). Any time ElementalPowers show up in the series, it's the four classical ones (earth, air, fire and water).



# Series.{{Eastwick}}: So far, Kat has electrocuted her husband with a lightning strike and frozen a swimming pool solid. She then also almost kills her ex's date with a gust of wind.

# Manga.AngelSanctuary



# VideoGame.{{Disciples}}: All factions tend to focus on 1 or 2 of the following: Air, Earth, Fire, Water, Death, Life, Mind and Weapon (the last is less an Element than it is the absence of an element, it is used for most Unit's melee/archery attacks). '''The following subbullets do not rely on trope wicks.'''

# BodyHorror.Webcomics: In ''Webcomic/{{Pacificators}}'', this is [[LadyOfWar Nozomi's]] preferred method of attacks. She uses her '''[[ElementalPowers powers]]''' to do things such as: [[spoiler: tearing a man's heart ''in half,'' sucking the air out of another man's lungs, and her special favorite, ''bursting'' a man's [[GroinAttack testicles]].]] '''Does not explain what powers'''



# Characters.FinalFantasy1: See AllYourPowersCombined. '''"See X" ZCE'''
# Characters.FriendshipIsMagicTwilightSparkle: She has several of them thanks to her status as a [[TheRedMage Red Mage]] but most of them are non-weaponized spell versions. '''Does not explain what powers'''
# Characters.ILeftTheARankParty: As an elementor, she wields element based magic. '''Does not explain what powers'''
# Characters.NamcoXCapcom: '''None of them have adequate context.'''
## Both cover almost the entire spectrum.
## She can use magic on foes too far off for Gil to hit.
## Both cover almost the entire spectrum.

# Literature.TheCrocodileGod: InsistentTerminology: Haik is adamant on this, implied to be because [[WordsCanBreakMyBones gods are sensitive to what things mean.]] He notes that while some sources call him "sea-god" and "god of the sea" as if it's the same thing, he insists that there is only one "god of the sea" as the AnthropomorphicPersonification of the Pacific Ocean. He emphasizes that he's a "sea-god," which means he's one of many deities with sea-based ElementalPowers. Likewise, he can't "see the future," but thanks to his and Mirasol's ReincarnationRomance, he [[RetroactivePrecognition "sees patterns."]]

Similarly, the three of the four Rude Noise members each represent the elements: Cannonball Battery (Bonkaa) represents fire, Ronnie Geissmuller (Wokkaa) represent water, and Mojo Rojo (Rekkaa) represents wind.

# Literature.RollOverAndDie: Most people in this world are born with an affinity for magic of one of the six elements: water, fire, earth, air, light and darkness. Some people, however, [[SuperpowerLottery are born with rare affinities that grant them different kinds of magic]].
# Manga.OmamoriHimari: Besides [[MakingASplash Shizuku]], there's also [[PillarOfLight Yuuto]] and [[CastingAShadow Kuesu]], and some (though not all) other demon slayer clans have elemental powers as well.
# NoodleIncident.{{Webcomics}}: ''Webcomic/SleeplessDomain'': The members of Team Alchemical can all use their respective ElementalPowers to achieve [[NotQuiteFlight something close enough to flight]] -- with the exception of [[PlayingWithFire Alchemical Fire]]. The alt text at one point notes that she had once tried using her fire abilities as a jetboot, but "never again."

## Like Robin, Leo is able to use many spells of different elements, be they [[PlayingWithFire fire]], [[ShockAndAwe thunder]], [[BlowYouAway wind]], [[LightEmUp light]], or [[CastingAShadow darkness]].
## The tome he carries for this game allows him to use more than one element this time around, [[ShockAndAwe Thunder]], [[KillItWithFire Fire]], [[BlowYouAway Wind]], [[CastingAShadow Darkness]], and [[LightEmUp Light]], and he can even combine them together to form a giant ball in his Pair Up Special. He still favors Thunder Magic, however.
## Linde can use light, wind, ice, lightning, and fire in her attacks.
## In her special attacks, where she tends to use more elements than just light, including fire, thunder, and wind.
## Like every magic user confirmed to use a tome, Validar has access to any element and spell that he could possibly want.
