The Intryon universe has 19 distinct elemental types which can be used anywhere that a type chart/table is required. They can be used to group different types of creatures as well as weapons or attacks.
Each elemental type has 3 strengths, 3 weaknesses, and one immunity, both when dealing and receiving damage. The only exception is Untyped, which does not have any strengths or weaknesses.
