[QUOTE="Aelryinth, post: 938424, member: 10515"] From an elemental standpoint, I can just look at the human body and see a large amount of elemental affiliation. Fire is Charisma...its about force of personality, not skill, not strength, not intellect...it's all about emotion and raw power. Death is certainly intellect. Intelligence is about rationality, lack of emotion, knowledge, memory, logic. None of those are Active, ALive traits. The Dead have no life...they make their force of personalty their life force. They have no empathy...it is not wisdom. Yet you can almost certainly rank the power of the undead by their Intellect. Constitution is all about Life. The undead don't have it is completely Justifying this association. Look at your digestive system...you make Life out of Death. Undead don't digest the dead...they try to feed on the living. I'd actually make Water associate with Strength. It's fluidity and control as well as power. Fluidity of movement..think of muscle. Muscle is NOT solid. Muscle and strength DESTROY solidity. Earth and Wisdom actually makes good sense. Sensory awareness, stubborness...senses are all about how your environment interacts with you...it's about MATTER and your perception of it. Earth represents stubborness better then water. and your senses are you interacting with the material world. It also represents resistance on the mental level. remember we are talking LIVING ELEMENTS....dead matter sitting there doesn't represent anything. Air and Dex are best. Absolute flexibility. Speed and control while still being solid and having force. Lightning reflexes...moves and runs like the wind...fire has no business with Dex. You could Swap Water and earth easily...both work in both stats...power vs solidity, sensitivity vs resistance of will. ==Aelryinth [/QUOTE]
