There are two interesting cards, which I feel combine their elements well:

They call to consider: what would be good cards for :entropy :gravity, :earth :air, :light :darkness, :death :life
Current obvious synergies between these opposites:
:entropy :gravity DBH, chaos chargers
:light :darkness Vader sader, Drain life sanct stall
:death :life Empathic malignancy
:earth :air ?

This is me opening discussion on what would be neat creatures in the spirit of Anubis and Steam Machine. No comment from myself at this time

Mushrooms are a fine medium. More important is the mechanic: some kind of aflatoxin/mitosis effect is what first comes to mind. This would line up even more with Anubis (having a nymph ability), though I'm unsure if that'd be best and it may be seen as optimal to keep Anubis as unique in being the only non nymph alchemy on a stick

this for :earth :air
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/card-ideas-and-art/flagbearer-flagwaver/

Currently being submitted to the Crucible, seems like a good bridge between the 2 elements.

For a :earth :air deck, possibly flying EE + stoneskin + fog/diamond shield as a control stall

I cannot image a creature which would combine  :light and  :darkness. They are moral elements which are total opposites. I personally don't like the idea of crusader wielding vampire dagger, but well... Corrupted light soldiers :P

Is the misconception of :light being inherently good and :darkness being evil the reason for this view?

I think the discussion is over now when you have already said it is misconception :P but seriously, yes, i think I view it in similar way...
