User blog:Xabidar/A sixth natural element

My Singing Monsters currently has five "natural" elements, plant, cold, air, water, and earth. Currently, with only four of those five elements on one island, that breaks down to this:

It all works rather nicely, there is only one element missing from each island. If a sixth natural element was added to the game, however, that means there is actually two elements missing from each island listed above, the one in the chart above and whatever the sixth element is.

Let say that, hypothetically, the sixth element was something like fire. If you follow the same pattern of only four elements per island, there would be a whopping total of potentially 10 new islands available, that would look something like this:

What does all this mean? Nothing really, but with so many potential islands, I highly doubt we're going to be seeing a new base element added to the game. I think we're much more likely to continue to get special islands, like Gold, Ethereal, and Shugabush, where the "rules" about natural elements don't really apply.
