-==History==
-===Creation===
-During the battle where the [[titan]]s defeated the [[Old Gods]] and brought order to the [[Azeroth (world)|world]], the [[Elemental Lords]] fell and their forces dispersed.<ref name=Historyoldgods/> One of the first acts of the titans was to banish the Elemental Lords and their servants to a prison within the [[Twisting Nether]]. These agents of chaos could not be allowed to roam freely, or they would disrupt the new order the titans sought to create. Thus, the titans fashioned a separate<ref name="S&L136">''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 136</ref> abyssal<ref name=Historyoldgods/> plane to hold their old foes;<ref name="S&L136"/> it was called the Elemental Plane.<ref name=WRPG216/> Over the course of a short period, they cast all the elementals they could find into this hastily crafted "jail."<ref name="S&L136"/> There, they would contend with one another for all eternity.<ref name=Historyoldgods/> The greatest of their battles was the [[Elemental Sundering]].<ref name=demitrian/> With the elementals' departure, nature calmed, and the world settled into a peaceful harmony.<ref name=Historyoldgods/>
-===Aftermath===
+==Patch changes==
+{{Patched|date=2010-12-02|note=Reduced [[Armor]], [[Stamina]] and [[Spirit]] to match no level requirement.  Sell price reduced.}}
-During the several millennia the elementals grew attached to their adopted home.<ref name=WRPG216/> Then, the summoners of Quel'thalas and the human magocracy learned to command the elementals, inadvertently opening momentary pinholes between Azeroth and the Elemental Plane.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 128</ref> Elementals are sometimes called back to [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] for short periods of time, but most are eager to return to their world when the spell that summoned them ends.<ref name=WRPG216/>

-[[Ragnaros]] the Firelord once commanded the [[Firelands|Fire domain]] in the plane, but 300 years ago [[Dark Iron]] dwarves in the [[Redridge Mountains]] summoned him to battle their enemies. The catastrophic summoning blasted the land and immolated the Dark Irons, and Ragnaros sunk into the depths of [[Blackrock Spire]] to prepare his return.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> Currently, Ragnaros seeks to return to the Elemental Plane.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 99</ref><ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 105</ref>

-Now the elementals have learned to open portals to start [[Elemental Invasions]]. At the beginning of an elemental invasion, portals will open to the elemental planes and invaders will begin to pass through. Thus, during an invasion you will find two to three times as many elementals in the area, usually slightly higher in level than the standard ones found there.

-After [[Deathwing]] breaks through the ceiling of Deepholm, the entire elemental plane is brought up (or down, in the case of Skywall), and can be reached through various means by the mortal races of Azeroth. The Firelands and Skywall will both become raids, Abyssal Maw will become two dungeons, and Deepholm will become the central hub zone of the expansion and will also contain a dungeon.
-== Geography ==
-The Elemental Plane is a three-tiered realm.<ref name="S&L136"/> This plane created by the titans is spherical and comparatively small — about the size of a single world.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-It would look like any other world to an outsider — at least, when looked upon from above or on the ground:<ref name="S&L136"/> one large continent surrounded by water, with a yellow sun burning above.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> A casual visitor, arriving on the surface, might even believe he is on an ordinary — if somewhat violent — planet.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-A glowing yellow orb, casting forth light and heat, hovers near the top point of the globe, acting as the "sun" for the entire plane.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-The sphere of the plane itself is curved in a curious way that tends to baffle creatures of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]'s reality. As befits the plane's prison function, escaping through ordinary movement is impossible. A creature attempting to move out of the sphere simply curves inexorably around, moving toward the other side. Thus, if one were to sail across the ocean in a boat, he would eventually arrive on the exact opposite side of the plane's sole continent. The land itself is slightly larger than [[Kalimdor]], while the seas are about the same width in all directions.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-===Regions===
-Each kind of elemental has claimed a portion of the world as they do not tolerate each other, in total there are four distinct realms:<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-*The domain of Air is called [[Skywall|The Skywall]].<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> It is a layer<ref name="S&L136"/> located in the air,<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> and sits atop the middle layer.<ref name="S&L136"/> It is home of [[Al'Akir]] the Windlord and his [[air elemental]] servants.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-*The middle layer supports both, the Water and Earth domains.<ref name="S&L136"/> The surface of the realm is divided almost equally between deep ocean and a gigantic continent dotted with active volcanoes.<ref name=WRPG216/>
-**The domain of Water is called [[Abyssal Maw|The Abyssal Maw]]. [[Neptulon]] the Tidehunter controls the oceans or Water domain.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-***At the point farthest from [[Deepholm|Therazane's domain]] floats a mile-wide shelf of solid ice known as the [[Frostland]].<ref name=S&L139>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 139</ref>
-**The domain of Earth is called [[Deepholm]]. It is the soil and stone of the plane's single continent, and the ground beneath the sea. It is riddled with tunnels and under the rule of [[Therazane]] the Stonemother.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-***The surface of the Elemental Plane's ocean is dotted with a few small islands of rock that yet resist Neptulon's endless assault on the land.<ref name=S&L139/>
-:''A thick layer of permanent, tunnel-ridden stone supports the earth and water on the surface.''<ref name="S&L136"/>
-*The domain of Fire is called [[Firelands|The Firelands]]. It is a third layer of Fire,<ref name="S&L136"/> located beneath the [[Abyssal Maw]] and [[Deepholm]].<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> It is a realm of ﬂame, lava and molten rock that constantly struggles to break free of its bonds. This domain was once ruled by [[Ragnaros]], who was later freed by [[Dark Iron]] dwarves, as explained [[#Currently|above]].<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-Note: There are also rumors that a forge similar to the [[Black Forge]] in Blackrock Mountain exists in the heart of the Elemental Plane, where dark iron is much more common. A journey to this site would not be for the faint of heart.<ref>''[[More Magic and Mayhem]]'', 154</ref>
-=== Traits ===
-Communicating with elementals is difficult, and they have provided little information about the nature of their ream.<ref name=WRPG216/>
-But it is known, that lava flows, earthquakes, windstorms, and tsunami are common, making the Elemental Plane a very dangerous place to visit.<ref name="S&L136"/> Normal levels of gravity pull physical objects toward the bottom of the sphere, where the realm of fire lies.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-The four elements that make up the plane are constantly in opposition and tend to shift and tear at each other, sometimes violently. Volcanoes rip through the solid mantle, assaulting both the land and sea realms wherever they can. The air swirls in unpredictable storms, producing whirlwinds and hurricanes that rake the surface.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-The elemental beings can alter the plane with a thought. The landscape shifts on its own from time to time.<ref>''[[Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]]'', pg. 217</ref> Spells and spell-like abilities with the air, earth, fire and/or water descriptor are empowered and enlarged in all regions of the Elemental Plane.<ref>''[[World of Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]]'', pg. 23</ref>
-==Access==
-Azeroth's denizens have few dealings with the Elemental Plane, though they can access it with magic.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/> It can also be accesed with "transit nodes", which are specific locations in Azeroth that connect with the Elemental Plane; these transit nodes exist only in specific elemental-based locations, such as within a volcano, underneath deep oceans or lakes, and the like.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-==Inhabitants==
-===Current rulers===
-*[[Al'Akir]] the Windlord rules the skies over the Elemental Plane.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 100</ref>
-*[[Neptulon]] the Tidehunter.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 102</ref>
-*[[Therazane]] the Stonemother.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 106</ref>
-===Creatures===
-:''For creatures in each realm of the plane, see [[Abyssal Maw#Creatures of the Abyssal Maw|Creatures of the Abyssal Maw]], [[Deepholm#Creatures of Deepholm|Creatures of Deepholm]], [[Firelands#Creatures of the Firelands|Creatures of the Firelands]] and [[Skywall#Creatures of the Skywall|Creatures of the Skywall]].
-Life exists, filling the skies and lands with creatures similar to those on Azeroth, as well as those as yet unknown to sages.<ref name="S&L136"/>
-Each of the realms is filled with life of various types, although the Abyssal Maw is mostly populated by elementals.<ref name=S&L141>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 141</ref> The native creatures are just as dangerous, as the world plays home to angry elemental creatures of all types. A few natural animals can also be found, including some creatures never seen on [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. These creatures have adapted to survive in the environment, and the [[Elemental Lord]]s take special care to protect them.<ref name="WoWRPG22"/>
-The basic [[elemental]] types can be found in the plane, and there are examples of [[elemental conglomerate]]s as well.<ref name=S&L141/> But beside them, the following creatures are known to exist:
-*A wide variety of natural creatures, from birds and mammals to reptiles, amphibians and insects can be found scattered throughout the realms.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*Azer<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Belker]]<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Djinni]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*Efreeti<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Kraken]]<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', pg. 140</ref>
-*Magnim<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Mephit]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Phoenix]] is a natural predator of the Elemental Plane.<ref>''[[Manual of Monsters]]'', pg. 81</ref>
-*[[Revenant]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Salamander#Salamander (Elemental)|Salamander]].<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Sprite]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Tojanida]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
-*[[Xorn]], various types.<ref name=S&L141/>
