Story

Canon(ish) information so far. Please make sure only to add info that has been generally agreed upon, and do not put ideas that have not been discussed yet.

Setting

 * The world is nearing apocalypse, and a lack of resources has forced a government facility to turn to human experimentation.

Elements

 * Most elements do not recall the current state of the planet, or who they were before they became elements, although there are exceptions.
 * Elements cannot be destroyed (and by extension, die). If parts of them are removed or otherwise injured, it will regenerate.
