Anyone looking for a good example of a wood elemental should check out
Chinese/Asian mythology.
The elements are quite different in that mythos.
Hermetically, we have the water vs. fire, air vs. earth conflict.
In the asian myths, it's more of a circle. water vs. earth vs. fire, vs.
wood, vs. air (I think)
Games Worshop has done some work on this stuff in their Warhammer game as
well, check any Nippon references therin.
Also, the asian elements are much more competitive. Each tries to outdo the
other in magic and power.
