AIR (The TAIKI): Aloof and Independent, these Kai Lin are tall and slender standing 6'0 tall. They look as if they can be blown over by a stiff wind. They have slightly blue skin. Their white and light bluish hair blows as if carried by a breeze. They have white or blue eyes. They favor tattoos that are blue that are circular. They are jovial and have a good sense of humor but can be prone to stormy emotions when provoked. They set up temples on the highest mountains above the clouds and are generally very isolated.
As one of the five noble clans (Air, Earth, Fire, Water, and Void) the Taiki are leaders of lesser elemetal clans that borrow from Air such as Lightning (Fire and Air) clan Cloud (Air and Water), and Dust (Air and Earth). In the rigid lines of clan warfare, the so-called noble elements of Kai-Lin have ancestral ties to these clans.
