Primordial Alignment: Neutral Law Tiers: Common - Supreme

Nature spirits or deities of the earth. As solid as their domain would imply, Primordials tend to either have incredibly tough defenses or the ability to heal, weaknesses aside.

Kodama Tier: Common Resist: Force Weak: Fire Affinity: Force Start: Dia	A spirit from Japanese folklore, which is believed to live in certain trees. Cutting down a tree which houses a kodama is thought to bring misfortune, and such trees are often marked with shimenawa rope.
Hua Po Tier: Common Immune: Fire Weak: Ice Affinity: Fire, Healing	A tree spirit of Chinese folklore who dwells in trees used for hangings. She is smaller than a human and cannot speak, but her voice is said to be as clear as a bird's song.
Knocker Tier: Common Resist: Ailments Weak: Force Affinity: Healing	The Welsh and Cornish equivalent of Irish leprechauns and English and Scottish brownies. About two feet tall and grizzled, but not misshapen, they live beneath the ground. Here they wear tiny versions of standard miner's garb and commit random mischief, such as stealing miners' unattended tools and food.
Sudama Tier: Common Immune: Force Weak: Fire Affinity: Force, Mind Start: Makakaja	Earth spirit in Japanese mythology. They are born from ancient trees and boulders. They are not evil, but will transform into humans or monsters to warn people not to infiltrate their mountains.
Bucca-Boo Tier: Grand Immune: Ice Weak: Force Affinity: Ice	Originally the name of a Cornish fertility deity who was transformed by the post-pagan people into a nature spirit. In their later form they appeared as a kind of goblin that was associated with the wind blowing in from the southwest. It was believed that their voices carried the wind and sailors would refer to it as "Bucca calling".
Dwarf Tier: Grand Immune: Lightning Weak: Mind Affinity: Physical	A creature from Germanic mythologies and fairy tales. It usually has magical talents, often involving metallurgy.
Tsuchigumo Tier: Grand Resist: Lightning, Physical Weak: Expel Affinity: Ailments	A race of people from ancient Japan that lived around Mt. Katsuragi and were said to have rebelled against the Empire. After being driven back deeper into the mountains by the Imperial Army, the Tsuchigumo were called bandits and thieves. Eventuality stories of them were embellished so much as to call them huge spider people that lived deep underground in caves, and could take human form.
Ubelluris Tier: Grand Immune: Physical, Force Weak: Ailments Affinity: Physical, Support	A strong and tall mountain god that carried the western edge of the sky on his shoulders. The most notable appearance of him within legend is when the Irsirra deities (Maidens of Heaven) placed the stone giant Ulikummis on his right shoulder so that he could grow tall and strong. Ulkummis grew so big that he touched the heavens, but Ubelluris was so strong that he didn't even notice his presence until it was pointed out by the god Ea.
Gogmagog Tier: Exalted Drain: Physical, Ice Weak: Fire Affinity: Force	Gog and Magog were two giants and said to be the protectors of London. Their likenesses are still used in The Lord Manor Show in England.
Hecatonchires Tier: Exalted Immune: Death Resist: Physical Weak: Curse Affinity: Physical	Hideous creatures that were the children of Gaia and Uranus and thus among the first beings to exist in creation. Their name literally means "hundred-handed" and they were depicted as gargantuan figures with a hundred hands, fifty heads, and incredible strength that was superior to even that of the Titans.
Albion Tier: Exalted Drain: Physical Immune: Expel Affinity: Physical	The primeval giant whose death and division results in the creation of the four Zoas: Tharmas, Luvah, Urizen, and Urthona. His name is also that of the British Isles in antiquity.
Noah Tier: Exalted Reflect: Physical Immune: Destroy, Ailments Resist: Almighty Start: Beast Eye, Dominion, Prominence, Absolute Zero, Tornado, Bolt Storm	A drifting god that has forgotten its own name.

Yggdrasil Tier: Supreme Drain: Destroy Immune: Expel, Death, Ailments Resist: Magic Start: Dragon Eye, Call God, Megidolaon, Debilitate, Dekaja, Dekunda	A gigantic ash tree, thought to connect all the nine worlds of Norse cosmology.

The trunk was the world-axis piercing through the center of Miðgarðr, around which Jötunheimr was situated, and below which lay Nidavellir or Svartálfheim. The three roots stretched down to Hel, Niflheim, and Muspelheim.
