Tracing their ancestry to the genies of the Elemental  Planes, each genasi can tap into the power of one of the elements. Air,  earth, fire, and water — these are the four pillars of the Material  Plane and the four types of genasi. Some genasi are direct descendants  of a genie, while others were born to non-genasi parents who lived near a  place suffused by a genie’s magic.

A typical genasi has a life span of 120 years

Descended from efreet, the genies of the Elemental Plane of Fire, fire genasi channel the flamboyant and often destructive nature of flame. They show their heritage in their skin tones, which can range from deep charcoal to shades of red and orange. Some bear skin tones common to humanity but with fiery marks, such as slowly swirling lights under their skin that resemble embers or glowing red lines tracing over their bodies like cracks. Fire genasi hair can resemble threads of fire or sooty smoke.

As a fire genasi, inherited the volatile mood and keen mind of the efreet. Tend toward impatience and making snap judgments. Rather than hide distinctive appearance, they exult in it.

Nearly all fire genasi are feverishly hot as if burning inside, an impression reinforced by flaming red, coal- black, or ash-gray skin tones. The more human-looking have fiery red hair that writhes under extreme emotion, while more exotic specimens sport actual  flames dancing on their heads. Fire genasi voices might sound like crackling flames, and their eyes flare when angered. Some are accompanied by the faint scent of brimstone.

Genasi rarely lack confidence, seeing themselves as equal to almost any challenge in their path. This certainty might manifest as graceful self-assurance in one genasi and as arrogance in another. Such self- confidence can sometimes blind genasi to risk, and their great plans often get them and others into trouble.

Too much failure can chip away at even a genasi’s sense of self, so they constantly push themselves to improve, honing their talents and perfecting their craft.

Most air and fire genasi in the Realms are descendants of the djinn  and efreet who once ruled Calimshan. When those rulers were overthrown,  their planetouched children were scattered. Over thousands of years, the  bloodlines of those genasi have spread into other lands. Though far  from common, air and fire genasi are more likely to be found in the  western regions of Faerûn, along the coast from Calimshan north up to  the Sword Coast, and into the Western Heartlands to the east. Some  remain in their ancient homeland.

In contrast, water and earth genasi have no common history.  Individuals have difficulty tracing their own lineage, and bloodlines  occasionally skip a generation or two. Many earth genasi originated in  the North and spread out from there. Water genasi come from coastal  areas, the largest concentration of them hailing from the regions  surrounding the Sea of Fallen Stars.

The distant land of Zakhara is known only in legends to most  inhabitants of Faerûn. There, genies and spellcasters enter into  bargains, and genasi can result from such pacts. Those genasi have been  sources of great weal and woe in the history of that land.

Genasi Background
Each Genasi subrace has its own temperament, which might make some backgrounds more suitable than others.

Air Genasi are proud of their heritage, sometimes to  the point of haughtiness. They can be flamboyant, and are keen to have  an audience. They rarely stay in one place for long, always looking for a  new sky to see and breathe. Air genasi who don’t live in cities favor  open lands such as plains, deserts, and high mountains. Fitting  backgrounds include charlatan, entertainer, and noble.

Earth Genasi are more withdrawn, and their connection  to the earth keeps them from being comfortable in most cities. Their uncommon size and strength makes them natural soldiers, though, and with  their stoic demeanor, they can encourage others and become great  leaders. Many earth genasi live underground, where they can be in their  favored element. When they emerge from their caves, they might roam the  hills and mountains or lay claim to old ruins.

Appropriate backgrounds for earth genasi include hermit, outlander, and soldier.

Fire Genasi often get themselves into difficulty with their fiery tempers. Like their air genasi cousins, they sometimes flaunt their perceived superiority over common folk. But they also want others to share their high opinion of themselves, so they constantly seek to enhance their reputations.

Likely backgrounds for a fire genasi include criminal, folk hero, and noble.

Water genasi almost all have some experience aboard or around sea vessels. They make excellent mariners and fishers.  Like earth genasi, though, water genasi prefer quiet and solitude; the wide shores are their natural homes. They go where they want, do what  they want, and rarely feel bound to anything. Good backgrounds for water  genasi include hermit and sailor.
