Elementalism is a specialty of magic focused on manipulation of raw material forces. Imagine a conference of modern engineers, and one of the people in attendance is a blacksmith who works with a hammer and anvil.

It's hilarious that THIS is just glossed over.

Damn right! The classics are classic for a reason. If you think it's a waste then you just haven't gotten into enough conceptual bullshit with it. I mean, hell depending on what counts as elements then all of the lantern corps pull on the elemental nature of their emotions.

Which means, at bare minimum, that said person is a knowledgeable metallurgist, and that having a person who has a deep understanding of the strength, malleability, and cost of base materials quite useful.
I mean, I'm only a trained welder myself. What do I know about flight? Not much...but I can build an airplane piece by piece.

I'm reminded of that scene in the Fantastic Mr Fox film with George Clooney, the part where Mr. Fox is psyching up all the animals and asking for their specialities while addrssing them by their latin names.
I will also laugh my arse off if the elementalist becomes vital to either this or another plotline.
Anyone: We need a specialist in elementalism.
Everyone looks at Paul.
Paul: huh... funny enough I do know a guy.

I know that the Animorph Atlanteans are kind of disadvantaged in various ways including racism, but being a mildly anthropomorphic octopus would be really cool. Can't go on land, but being able to consciously change what your skin looks like and having eight limbs would be pretty cool. Also the whole not having a skeleton. And if I'm remembering right, their eyes don't have that dumb thing that humans do where the blood vessels are in front of their retina. Or something was special about their eyes anyways.
Oh you could also give like really great hugs, to multiple people.
Sex would also be freaky. Four times as many manipulating limbs as humans, and no need to bother with that gravity shit.

Sure, "I wanna take a demon and graft some severed angel wings to her to make her a member of the Justice League, and my first choice for implementing this was a 17 year old military recruit." is perfectly sensible, but the guy laughing at it has to be drunk?

Considering that the only difference between the two is whether or not those in attendance are nerds...
I'm pretty sure that should be "stripe".
(also "thaumaturgist" might need to be pluralized)
Maybe that should be "towards".

The Atlantean spellcasting tradition frowns on invoking the power of others, like gods or spirits. They focus instead on using magic directly, harnessing the power of their own souls. This guy is about as popular as a creationist at a biology conference.

The group ends up attacked and it turns out the Elementalist is the only combat effective magic user there.
I laughed so hard at this one!

Huh really? I figured elementalism was what Kaldur and other soldiers used - directanipulation of the elements around them. Not channelling the power of a powerful entity.
