So far all the cities have the same descriptions. Can I try to write a new description for each capital city?

Sure, go for it. But I cannot give any guarantees that they will be used in the final version.

Frigid Mountains for Water? I won't go into detail for this one, but we do need a place for Arctic Dragons/Squids, and making an Arctic on this map may be a bad idea.

I finally finished the description for all cities. Took me quite a while to imagine all those special events for each element and stuff.

Achromaticon

The capital city of Aether. Built on vast plains, it is known of its supernatural
calm and serenity, which creatures can feel from a large distance. It is also
well-guarded by immortals and phase dragons.

Cloud City

The capital city of Air. The city is guarded by whirlwinds generated by itself. It
is well known for its yearly Aerial Ballet. Its revenues mostly come from trading
with other cities.

Moord

The capital city of Darkness. Surrounded by a large forest, little is known about it.
The city emits a mysterious, dark aura which will slowly drain the life of
any non-darkness creature. A never-ending night reigns this obscure place.

Necropolis

The capital city of Death. The city itself is the ruins of an ancient town built by
unknown origins. A toxic fume around poisons non-death creatures and kills them
before they can see it.

Rokk

The capital city of Earth. This large city is built with sand and stone, fortified
over countless generations. Circled by mountains, it is heavily guarded by golems and
only Gravity creatures are allowed to visit them.

Anarchia

The capital city of Entrophy. Built on a vast desert, the city is protected by
entrophic teleportation gates which randomly send invaders to another location.
It is well known and also despised for its yearly sacrifices for their god,
Chaos Lord.

Burning City

The capital city of Fire. It is one of the only cities who have an offensive army.
Built near volcanoes, the city uses fire to run most structures. It is known for
its Phoenix festival which attracts visitors from everywhere.

Graviton City

The capital city of Gravity. It is a massive city built in order to honor the god
Graviton. It has one of the largest armies and is also very advanced technologically.
It is well known for its Gravity Wrestling tournament.

Nature's heart

The capital city of Life. Guarded by various creatures, the city is very friendly toward
other cities, but is ready to defend itself when needed. It is said that even the
energy near this city can heal your wounds. Its revenue comes from its own people.

Solarus

The capital city of Light. This beautiful place was built long ago by elementals and
grows in size each year. It is known for its excellent schools. The city is protected
by a immense flash of light that desorients most non-light creatures.

Shifting Sands

The capital city of Time. The ability control time has prevented countless invasions
from their enemies. The city is surrounded by deserts, and only earth creatures
are allowed to visit them. It is well-known for its yearly future-seeing contest.

Poseidon's Gate

The capital city of Water. Built with ice in the center of a large sea, it is
unreachable by normal beings. Also protected by marine creatures, the city is one
of the most well-defended ones. Its revenue mostly comes from fishing.

Gah.  I HATE the life capital's name.  With a passion.  I realize I can't actually choose anything, but I guess if I were a dictator I'd make these picks.  I like most of the cities, but if I had more time I'd think of something better for Alfheimr.....

:lifebig LIFE
Capital City

Alfheimr
This large, well-populated city built entirely in the tree tops.  A feat of engineering, this tree-house city is defended by it's high ground and difficulty to find.  The area below the town is trap ridden, and if attacked, the city may raise the ladders leading to it at a moments notice.  Several enchantments also protect it's walls, and legend says the creatures of the forest defend it like they defend their children.  The city has a strange natural healing property, and it has some of the best doctors in the land.
City

Eden's Altar
Eden was the old capital of the kingdom of life, but after a great fire, it burned to the ground.  Eden's Alter is all that remains, a small merchant down more designed as a waypoint in the forest.  The town is extremely impoverished and is struggling, but it makes some of the best crops in the world.  These are difficult to purchase, as the city is in demand of the forest's rapid regrowth, but the adrenaline-sap from Eden was once a commodity enjoyed by kings.
City

Cocoon
This moderate-sized city is crowded.  It started as a farming town in a large fertile plain, but quickly the crops started overlapping each other, much to the townspeople's dismay.  But, because they're cramped for space, the farmers of cocoon revolutionized animal growing, and it's farming techniques have gained it small amounts of fame.  It's meat and livestock exports fund the entire town.[size]
City

Kelpwood
This "town" is more of a nomadic group of loggers, going where the wood is good.  Some of the toughest people around live here, and their wood sure is quality.  They don't get a whole lot of tourists, so tools are normally on short supply.  You can't cut down a tree with a wooden axe, after all, so the town has one of the most lopsided bartering systems ever conceived.  A good trader keeps it on his map.
Wonder

The Great Tree
The people of life have a legend.  Once, a great Hero attempted to save his lover from a cruel man, another suitor of the woman.  The woman chose the hero as her bride, and in vengeance, the cruel man murdered her.  Horrorstruck, the hero brought the woman to a spot in the forest where no tree had grown before.  As part of an old burial ritual, he buried a seed by her and set her down to be given back to nature.  But, miraculously, the woman returned to life.  News of the tree of resurrection spread, but none could understand the ways of the Great Tree, whom gives life to those who are deserving.
Fast Travel

The Caravan
While the lands of life are largely self sufficient, they lack the minerals or modern comforts that have been learned by other lands.  As such, life is constantly trading it's wood, livestock, seeds, and other products in exchange for stone, tools, and electrum, none of which are naturally occurring in the woods.  To transport these goods, a large caravan is constantly flowing to and from the woods.  With the help of adrenaline, travelers on the path can get to and from the woods almost instantly.
Resource

Lumber
There is no better lumber than that from the tree of life.  Although the lava forges of the firelands may disagree, when burned, the wood of life burns cleaner and more controlled than any other.  The wood is also sturdy, durable, and mysteriously devoid of pests like termites.  It is speculated the trees in the land of life do a better job of staying alive than in other places.  Either way,  the wood from the land of life is the only lumber for carpenters world wide.
Special

Ambush!
Because of life's natural foliage, it's quite easy to hide even the largest force.  As long as your army isn't moving, it's invisible to your opponents.

I'm going to try my hand at this as well

 :entropy Derolies
A once large city, now scarecly populated, but likely to change. The population is never constant, with inhabitants coming and going as they please, with large groups of people arriving or leaving for no particular reason. It relies on it's crops to keep it alive, and they have a large harvest of only one crop, however this is rarely ever the same next year. Due to the great surplus of it's one exported good, it is relatively poor, and it's inhabitants are likely to go through mood swings and strange ilnesses due to malnutrition. There are rumors of abominations and chaos seeds under the farmland, which the inhabitants say explain the crop cycle and side effects.


 :earth Stone Town
A medium sized town, having a very distinct feature among the land of Elementia. It is entirely underground. As a result, they often find many jewels, and do not understand their true worth, with many inhabitants crafting them and using them as everyday goods such as coffee mugs and levers. They export haematite and steel to the outside world, and it is speculated that they have golems guiding them through the tunnels and using their incredible force to help them. Stone Town is a popular destination for tourists to escape the 'above ground' way of life, and get their hands on cheap gemstones.

 :death Hypogeum
A once closed scociety, ruled by a cruel dictator is now the most welcoming city in the "land of death" (please fix when name is known). It generates many tourists, as it is the home to the one great Mummy of the enslaver, who came from a land unknown to them. There is a rumor that he may one day rise when brought back to his time, and bring back his vast army, but this is now treated as a myth. Another tourist attraction is the huge bone wall, which for a small fee of electrums, can be be attacked in hope to destroy it. It is said the bonewall was placed when the ruler was at his prime, and his army was massive and unstoppable, however this is unconfirmed.

Capital City

Graviton City
A city heavily defended by Armagios, towers, and floating bombs, ready to be dropped. Once threatened by the great god, Graviton, the kind master, Jumbalumba, agreed to name the city after him, as tribute, to save his beloved city from the flames. Holds the mighty Gravity Fortress, home of Queen GirlsGeneration and her close advisors. The city is heavily populated by Graviton Gaurds, Fire Eaters, Chargers, and wizards. In the center of the city, lies the Orb of Gravity, which if taken from the pedistal it rests, it is rumored that gravity will cease to exist.
City

Core
A city that is at a unison with itself. This city tends to rise and fall, depending on how many mages are near the Orb of Gravity. The city will alse float around the Gravity Basin, once crashing into the Great Floating Mountians. The chunks of rock are now floating above the city, once helping ward off arrows from a Region of Air in one of the earliest attacks of the first Great War. 
City

Urias
A city near the north-west parts of the Gravity Basin. Otyughs live in the desert regions around the city, coming for feed ocasionally. The elementals here are very religious, and do not welcome any outsider. It is said thar unwanted visitors are killed and fed to the Otyughs.
City

Levity
This moderate-sized city is sprawling. It stands on a major trade route and is mainly constructed of brick. Cargo is sent by putting a Gravity quantum icon, enchanted by mages. It is then covoered in the strongest steel in all of elementalmania. Afterwards, a charger rams full speed intoit, flinging it to the next city.
Wonder

Name
The Great Floating Mountains
The Great Floating Mountians were risen by the original Master of Gravity, Jumbalumba. These mountians constantly shift up and down, as brave Gravity elementals would reduse gravity and jump, rising to the next mountian. There are races to see who can find their way to the top of The Great Floating Mountians. They art at the highest elevation, but the Earth Kingdom proclamed we were cheating, and gave the title to Mt. Bassalt. It is rumored that Graviton lurks here.

Fast Travel

Name
Rocket
The Rocket was a great invention, was the greatest, until Aether invented the cloning macine named Fractal. Gravity elementals reduce gravity and off-duty Armagios hurled it into the air. The gravity elementals would rise, farther than the Region of Air, and would fall back down again, landing in a whole different place in the elemental's world.

Resource

Gravity
Gravity is produced by the legendary Orb of Gravity. It is placed on a pedistal, and if lifted from it, it is rumored gravity will cease to exist, until it is put back onto the pedistal. This orb is constantly guarded by the strongest Elite Chargers, Massive Dragons, and Elite Armagios in the city of Graviton. Art done by Kuross
