There are five traits that all Earth Nephilim possess to varying degrees.
You must choose one of these as a dominant trait in a game session, meaning
that is the behaviour you will focus for that particular game. What this entails
is that you can focus your acting energy on a particular personality aspect,
and it will help guide you when you are playing so that you can maintain a
reasonably consistent portrayal of a character. You are encouraged to change
traits for sessions, so that you explore different aspects of the elemental
personality.
Propriety
The Earth Nephilim show propriety. They are conventional, proper and fitting.
They follow what is socially acceptable in conduct, behaviour and speech.
They have excellent manners and are very polite. They are prudent and have
a deep regard for conventional rules of behaviour.
Merchants
The Earth Nephilim by nature are merchants. They are the storekeepers, barterers
and traders. They are at their best when buying or selling material or tangible
commodities. Most are very business oriented.
Physical
The Earth Nephilim have a physical nature. They have a characteristic love
for the material, tangible things. They derive pleasure from sensory stimulation
such as taste, smell and feel. They surround themselves with tangible items
such as fine furniture, art, and jewellery, and most have a nice home that
is expertly decorated. They have good taste in clothing and most are connoisseurs
of food and drink.
Sensory Stimulation
The Earth Nephilim emotions are aroused by sensory stimulation. Each of the
five senses can produce an emotional response. Sight, sound, touch, smell
and taste bring joy or depression. Nice surroundings, good music, the feel
of quality materials, the smell and taste of good foods and financial security
are the conditions required for an emotionally happy Earth Nephilim.
Fraud
The Earth Nephilim are normally not prone to physical violence, but as in
any situation, there are exceptions. They are mildly revengeful. Their attitude
is 'my time will come” and they do hold a grudge. They will eventually
get their revenge one way or another, more often by hitting a person in his
pocketbook. When angered, Earth Nephilim, similar to the Fire and Air Nephilim,
are quick to express that anger verbally though most likely not physically
unless as a last resort.
