[@Anon-1 last thing to add to all those edits I made: 'Niddhog' is the personal name of the dragon, as opposed to being an actual Niddhog. Your 'Niddhog' is a phase dragon.

Now, seeing as this RP in general has rather stalled...
An unremarkable Amargio slowly paced along his patrol at the edge of the Gravity Basin. The energy surge he had noted, but it didn't seem to affect him. After a quick check, he made a mental note of it, and would include it in his report.
Assuming the Gravity elemental that just leaned over right into his face didn't make him forget.
It wasn't that Iredia Irei meant to be an exasperating person, but she had a definate tendancy to leap before she looked, as she would put it. It didn't help that sheseemed to have a tendancy to focus on the oddest things. Right now, that focus, was on getting Redelgus, the Amargio she was riding on, to laugh. So far, she had done nothing but exasperate him, and this latest break in his chain of thought looked like it would be another of the multiple annoyances she accidentally inflicted.
Iredia: Hey! What do you call a Life elemental cornered by a Otyugh?
Redelgus:  ::) I don't know, what.
Iredia:DEVOURED!
Redelgus: ?_?
Iredia: :-[ I thought it was funny...
Redelgus: Perhaps you should just stick to keeping an eye out for trouble, instead of trying to find my sense of humor.
Iredia: :( Fine fine...

Land of Water
Description: While many Water Elementals reside underwater, the city of Atlantis and, to a lesser extent, the Frozen North, are home to these Elementals. Atlantis boasts extraordinary architecture and a unique fusion of water and solid surfaces. Water Elementals cannot stand being on land for long periods of time (pun maybe intended), but some have gotten used to living on dry earth. Water Elementals are smart, chatty, and active, but are also stubborn and physically weak.
Population: Medium
Government: Representative Democracy
Known for: Architecture, ability to live underwater
Abilities:
Ice Bolt - Water magicians can cast this spell, which hurls a large ball of ice at a target area, exploding into water and sharp shards of ice that can drown or pierce.
Freeze - Residents of the Frozen North have developed the ability to freeze at will. Many can freeze small objects, while more proficient users can solidify entire Elementals in ice.
Trident - This weapon is crafted to destroy structures; it can generate tremors in the ground which causes Elemental and building alike to fall to the ground.

[Well...Let's go more in depth? Representative Democracy-That's more or less the system of X people get 1 person to represent their interests in government right? So that means instead of a simple 'King' or 'Queen' we have a council of X members...How many members as well as how many people they represent can be found simply enough.
Election process-IDK? I kinda wanna say it's a vote based election like in america...But a nice twist I like is the idea of 'nobility representatives', basically, there are 'noble houses' as it were, and each house has a seat in the council or whatever it's called. It might tie into your character as well-Aquaris seems to me like someone who doesn't let go of past grudges or family feuds, so I could see him being related to one of these houses, possibly a villianious one considering the whole 'nymph heritage' thing he's got going.
As for strong vs. struggling...I figured that if nothing else, each element has it's own native weapon and shield(s) as imports/exports, and they also have whatever trade their power lends itself to as well. So,  :air has merchants/travel, cause they can fly and get around quickly... :water has alchemy, what with using Nymph Tears to create nymphs as needed, as well as cryogenics...I think  :water is pretty prosperous, their power is versatile and interacts with many elements, allowing for more than a few synergic combinations, and unique processes that require a water elemental.
That said, this is just me brainstorming here, it doesn't have to be cannonical :P]

Seen it.

How would we fit this in with the current map? (Fortunately, water gets a bit of leeway when it comes to Kingdom since it surrounds the entire continent, but with that being said I'm not sure how and where you map would be placed in relation to vrt's.)

Since the map is only for water (west), it could fit in. But if you don't want to its perfectly fine. I still need to work on the contrast and texture as vrt suggested, but it is quite difficult for me to do.

[Time to kick this thing back into gear/test to see who's still in this thing.]
*Aquarius's Tower field*
From between the towers Aquarius owned stepped a nymph unlike anything he'd ever seen before. Her body was gray, and ever so slightly translucent, and she had an eerie smile on her face. She held out her arms, as if to hug him, and stepped forward slowly.
???Nymph: :-* Come, I'm the only one you'll ever need. That wet wanna-be's the reason the others are dead anyhow...
*Somewhere near the edge of the Forest of Life, near the Hexacross...*
Fercio was racing along, when suddenly his charge was interrupted by what felt like getting hit in the face with a wave of water. Much to his surprise, the 'water' seemed to catch his feet, causing him to crash to the ground face-first. He saw two more water-globs in front of him, one in the shape of a humanoid, the other appearing as a winged serpent. As for what he was stuck in, he looked and saw a water glob that seemed to be in the shape of a mushroom, albeit with crystals on top of it.
*Somewhere in the Time desert...*
A large, turquise dragon stepped out of a grey portal that closed behind it. It looked about, and then roared loudly, as if daring an opponent to come and face it in battle...

The Water Elemental shudders for a moment, before taking a nervous step backward. Something is clearly wrong with this nymph.

The Prince of Life roars in anger, quickly jumping at the blobs of water that attacked him out of nowhere. The blobs respond angrily, twisting out of the way and changing their shapes into that of winged serpents.

The dragon, sensing prey, turns to see a tanned figure in a linen cloak. It licks its lips, seemingly unfazed by the swirling sands of the desert.

How do each of you respond to your situation?

(Aquarius keeps his random towers with alchemy potions in a storeroom, but I'll try to follow along.)

Aquarius was about to carry a load of towers and nymph's tears when he heard the unfamiliar voice. After hearing what she had to say, Aquarius stepped to the right, grabbed her hand, and walked her over to Hydrona. Hydrona knew from his looks what to do.

Hydrona knew well that at creation, nymphs were started with a certain set of skills and knowledge different from that the nymph would get if she were born, and she could tell where a nymph came from by interrogating her, even if the nymph in question was trying to keep her origin a secret.

"What happened yesterday?" Hydrona started.
