Species of Marked.
Civilized .
Elementals . Elementals are the type of Marked that are closest to being human. They retain all human features, aside from their Marks (which vary on the kind of element they personify and which division they eventually join.) As first years, they often display little - and sometimes no - talent for any one element. As second and third years, they begin to practice and hone the element they were drawn to. As fourth years, they choose their division and then graduate to the college. As fifth graduates, they simply hone their division. Sixth graduates become masters and then graduate for good. The only death risk elementals face is losing control of their respective element.
- Fire . Fire Elementals are the most violent and aggressive of the civilized Marked. They hold the power over fire and heat at the most basic levels. Their facial Marks tend to be somewhere between jagged and smooth and are often centered around their eyebrows. When they pick a division, their Marks will become more defined and elaborate.

Their eyes will often turn orange or red, depending on their own personality. They are of average aggression compared to the other divisions of Fire. Often, their Marks feature a Phoenix, dragon or some other type of lizard.
