Elements named as such due to their being representations of the four classical elements in Greek philosophy: earth, fire, wind and water. Several titles divide them between high-level and low-level elementals. They belong to the Elementals species and are Light-Neutral, or Neutral-Neutral in some games.
Elements are usually created by fusing two demons of the same race (except for some "high tier" races, Element or Mitama). Fusing two different Elements will give a Mitama instead, or simply be impossible to do in some early installments.
Element demons generally do not stand out as combatants. They are more often used in demon fusion, wherein the other demon fused with it will always result in the next higher or lower-leveled demon of the same race. This helps the player to complete the Demonic Compendium more quickly without fiddling with the fusion chart, but the tradeoff being a demon with lackluster skills compared to normal fusion combinations.
Demons of this race can be made either by mixing two demons of the same race or by trading in goods at the Rag Shop, which will give an Element based on the goods.
Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon[]
Element Order is a classification of Demon. They appear in 4 different Training Halls in different parts of the capital but cannot be recruited, instead Raidou must fuse them. Like other games fusing Elements together create Mitamas. They tend to drop gemstones or give them as gifts. Elements have no skills that can be used on the field.
Persona 2: Innocent Sin/Persona 2: Eternal Punishment[]
Elementals in these games are neither enemies or Personae, but rather Fusion Spells accesed with Summon Spirits. In Innocent Sin, they are performed through any elemental spell followed by Summon Spirits. Eternal Punishment is more restrictive, as they can only be performed by one of 8 Rumour Spells (which are available only to specific Personae) followed by Summon Spirits.
"Elementals who form the building blocks of existence. They are omnipresent in the living world, supporting it. Weaker Elements lack personalities and display clearly visible patterns and symbols. Stronger nature Elements have basic personalities tailored to their attributes."
