Grounders possess a unique genetic connection with planets, allowing them to harness abilities derived from the planet’s elemental constituents. These abilities are called evobilities. Grounder DNA mutated with Cynder’s chemical periodic elements, producing adaptations that enable survival on the planet’s harsh and arid environment. Children inherit one or two evobilities from their parents, and each evobility is assigned a distinct name. Evobilities are charged through physical contact with their home planet or Earth, such as walking barefoot on grass or sand. This connection synchronizes the body with the planet’s natural electrical charge. If a Grounder does not regularly charge their evobility, it will gradually die, and they will eventually become fully human.
