Fictional biography
The Elementals are four extradimensional humanoids who became immortals with power over natural forces and who ruled a kingdom on Earth before the rise of the original Atlantis. They are Hydron, lord of the waters; Magnum, master of the earth; Hellfire, wielder of flame; and Zephyr, mistress of the winds.
The Elementals used N'Kantu, the Living Mummy, making him a slave, using him as a pawn against the Living Pharaoh to obtain the Ruby Scarab from them. Zephyr betrayed the other Elementals and allied with the Living Mummy. The Elementals attacked Zephyr, the Living Mummy, and their allies and gained the Scarab from them. When the Elementals tried to release their energies through the Scarab, they were blasted off Earth.
The Elementals were later returned to Earth and pursued Zephyr and the Scarab. Ms. Marvel arrived and fought the Elementals, defeating them one by one.
