I like your idea of where they get their power, Cheyenne
very interesting. In my stories, a portion of the human race was set apart and given the inherited ability to control any element, like I said, from the time of conception, but they ALSO get the ability to control all the other elements, just not nearly as well. Say, in a situation where twins are forming in a woman's womb. They'd both already have their power, but of course they wouldn't know how to use it, or else (since this actually happens in my story) the power over fire would be very uncomfortable for the mother! Anyway, this happens in my story-twins in a womb, one dies before birth and unwittingly transfers his power to the other. This power in the instance it happens in my story was Healing, while the other child had the power of Fire. So this made him very powerful. And having his twin's power as well also made his other powers stronger. so it is a God-given power, although God isn't directly mentioned. The evil creatures gain their power through the devil; black magic and witchcraft. These are NOT specifically described in my story, don't worry, they're just hinted at. To describe them, I'd need to research them, and I don't want to do that!
