Elemental

The Elementals are the first race created by the Golden Goddesses. They were powerful near God-like beings that led the Trilith in wars against the demonic Druthulidi. The First Sages are the only Elementals known by the people of Hyrule, though other such beings might exist.

Physical Characteristics
Elementals all appear as huge beings vaguely similar in appearance to a Hylian, often composed of the base elements of which their Sagehood represents, such as Malkorbagia, Maphaeus, Kovaloo and Solahrasin. Others have an appearance distantly more similar to a Hylian, such as Sulkaris and Evaleen, who are the representations of mortal life and death respectively.

Powers
The Elementals have incredible powers, in that each one was given a specific task by the Goddesses and they had the powers to accompany that task. These powers range from:
 * controlling the flow of time
 * manipulating light
 * the ability to give life and control it's growth
 * control fire and earth
 * control water in it's different forms e.g. ice
 * the ability to create plagues and give death to any living being
 * the ability to guide spirits to the afterlife, as well as conjure powerful winds
 * Immortality and Invulnerability- The Elementals, like their Sage sucessors, are immune to disease, aging, and the elements, and for the most part unharmed by conventional weaponry such as swords, arrows, and most forms of magic, usually only being slowed down by trauma. They can, however, be killed by completely destroying their form.

Dawn of Time
According to the Book of Mudora, the Druthulidi Majora tells others of his kind about Hyrule they begin to flock there, they then wage wars against each other to dominate the land, which lead to great death and destruction across Hyrule. In response to this the Golden Goddesses created the First Sages to enact their purging of the planet. The First Sages led the Trilith into many battles against the numerous Demonic armies, resulting in the death of all but five Druthulidi. Once the wars ended the First Sages left Hyrule to enter the Sacred Realm, so that they could guard the Triforce, a holy treasure left by the Goddesses.

In truth, the First Sages warred with each other as well as the Druthulidi, forsaking their duty in attempts to control the Triforce and destiny of the mortals of Hyrule. Realizing that they were indeed mortal, the Sages eventually ceased their wars with one another, exiling Sulkaris while telling her that they could not kill her, in order to preserve the myth of their immortality. They would retain a tenuous truce, lording over the races of Hyrule as demigods, and constructing a false religious narrative to control the mortal populations.

Ancient Age
Within the Sacred Realm, Sulkaris attempted to steal the Triforce for her own ends but is cast out by Solahrasin. After her fall, the remaining First Sages, with the exception of Demoko and Solahrasin, passed their titles to a chosen mortal and settled into anonymity among the people of Hyrule.

Malkorbagia isolated herself in Greshou Library.

Maphaeus settled deep under the caverns of Death Mountain.

Evaleen lived among the Ancient Hylians of Kakariko Village.

Kovaloo departed west with the wind, supposedly to guide the spirits of the dead to the afterlife.

Solahrasin returned to the Sacred Realm with his armies, creating a plane of existence known as the Silent Realm in which to wait until he was again needed.

Demoko ascended to the heavens and tasked the Oocca with guiding the Kingdom of Hyrule in their development.

The Return of Sulkaris
In 127 AG, Sulkaris leads her Gohma in a warpath across Hyrule, killing the rest of the First Sages until she herself is destroyed by Link wielding the Master Sword.
