Background: Derrel's world is broken into four tribes: Air, Fire, Water, and Earth. The Fire Tribe resides along the equator of the world, among deserts, volcanoes, and other hot climates. Derrel lives in one of the largest deserts in the world, surrounded on three sides by a mountain range, with the sea on the far side.

Derrel is a Liutenant in the Fire Tribe military, and helps train the trrops fresh out of the academy. He gives assignments out to squads, and holds down the main base that protects the desert he lives in from Earth Tribe soldiers. While he uses both magic and weapons, he's partial to weapons. He began training in unarmed combat when he was seven, and upgraded to armed combat over the years. He has recently been training in spellcasting to become more balanced.

The tribes have long been at war with each other for territory and resources. One is never able to conquer the other because each capital is guarded by a powerful Dragon of each respective element. These Dragons never attack each other because a fight between just two could drain oceans, and sink continents. So a delicate balance has been kept for centuries.

The Earth Tribe poses the greatest threat to the Fire Tribe, because they fight over similar territories. While the Air Tribe doesn't pose as great a threat, battles in the sky are waged for the Air cities that the Fire Tribe desires. They could use the Air cities to enhance thier magic and attack the Earth Tribe from above. The Earth Tribe also poses the greatest threat to the Water Tribe because they want to mine the sea floor. The Air and Water Tribes are reletively isolated, so they don't pose a threat to anyone. They just deal with their respective enemies.

Can you expand on strengths and weaknesses, and maybe his childhood?

There you go.

I added a few lines in the second chapter of his background.

...okay...approved. *stamps*
