Creature Type
Your creature type is both humanoid and elemental. Size
Genasi come in all the same varieties of shape and size as their mortal kin, but they often have a build befitting their element. Those of earth or water descent tend to be heavier, while those of air or fire tend to be lighter. You are Medium or Small. Darkvision
You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light Manifest Element
You are able to briefly manifest the power of the elemental plane from which your lineage derives. The action cost and effects of your manifestation is determined by your genasi element. If your manifestation allows you to cast spells, Constitution is your spellcasting ability for them. These spells require no material components, but they still require their normal casting time. If your manifestation otherwise imposes a saving throw, the DC is equal to 8 + your Constitution modifier + your Proficiency bonus. Once you manifest your element, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.
