Light is the sixth element in Aserra, which could be considered, at its most basic, sunlight. While it is represented by the sun or sunlight, in Aserra it is equally associated with purity and the color white. While Idraen, the Elemental God of Light represents this element, Orran’sulani was also considered to be “of the Light”, and his son Idraen is noted to be much like him in personality and appearance; basically, Orran’sulani’s “spitting image”. This is what made him the most worthy successor to Orran’sulani after his death.

The Elemental “plane” of light exists within Zephaer, the City of the Gods, on the second of seven levels. This second level is where the light spirits reside. These light spirits are also the souls of the Idayn race, which was created by Idraen. The Idayn are Light Elementalists, though they have broken off into a number of sub-races, none of which, except for certain tribes of Eain’Idayn still use Light Elementalism. White dragons are also associated with the element of Light and are descended of Idraen’s dragon Nyusha. Angels are also aligned with Light.

Those who are aligned with the Light element walk a line between positive and negative aspects of the element. At their worst, Light elementals can be extremely righteous and convinced of their own moral superiority, looking down on all those who do not share the same views. At best, they are ethical, peace-loving, and enlightened. Many light elementals fall between these two extremes. White is the main color associated with the Light element, but gold is acceptable as well.
