Boron

5

Boro

At first sight boron seems like an unimpressive half metal. But actually it has quite a kick, after all it is the (second) hardest element after diamond. It can be found in rocket fuels, bullet-proof vests and in detergents. Boro the monster always keeps its cool. Some think he’s arrogant some call him „boring boron“. But as is generally known still waters run deep...

Sulfur

16

Sulfus

Sulfur used to be considered as the element from hell because of its odor. However, it is very useful for example in fertilizers or black powder.

Sulfus the monster is a little stinker that nobody wants to play with. He farts often and loves to crack dirty jokes. Therefore his true qualities are often underestimated.

Potassium

19

Kali

Potassium is an ambivalent element: highly reactive on the one hand – it explodes on contact with water – on the other hand every living being needs it for survival. Kali the monster is a manic creature. Quarrelsome and vengeful it finds a fly in every ointment and can drive othe monsters up the wall. But whoever is in real need can count on her.

Krypton

36

Krypto

Krypton is a very rare noble gas. It can be found in lamps, flashes and lazers.

Krypto the monster likes to keep hidden and spy on other monsters. Is he just a crazy stalker or does he have a secret mission? Like the other noble gases he doesn’t have arms, instead he can move things by pure mindpower.

Fluorine

9

Flurax

Fluorine is the most agressive of all Elements. It reacts with everything and everybody. Like a predator it permanently wants to steal another element’s electron.

Flurax the monster is a real bandit – wild and dangerous, impetuous and greedy. Always on the hunt it looks out for new victims. But whoever manages to tame the beast, can make good use of it.

Calcium

20

Calcius

The soft metal calcium is in our bones as well as in chalk, marble and lime. Calcius the monster is a moody but hard-working builder. Once work-mania has laid hold of him, one better doesn’t get in his way.

Carbon

6

Carbo

Without carbon there would be no life. There are more than 16 million known carbon compounds. It can be dirty like coal or precious like diamond. Carbo the monster is a real party animal. Knows everybody and everything and always has the latest gossip to tell. She is very creative and has good ideas, which fail quite often, unfortunately.

Lead

82

Plumbo

Lead is a very heavy metal, which is soft and easy to work with. Therefore it was used for plumbing and printing types – until its toxicity was discovered. Plumbo is a strong Monster with low intelligence. A willing henchman who does all the dirty work for the royals. Too dumb for complicated tasks but a good protector.

Copper

29

Cuperina

Copper was the first metal discovered by mankind. 10,000 years ago man made tools and jewelry out of it. Because of its beauty it was associated with planet venus, the goddess of beauty. Nowadays it is still being used in multiple applications. Cuperina is a lively lady and the damsel of the castle. She’s a bit vain, has many admirers and loves to dress up. But her „heart of gold“ and her sense for practicality seperates her from the other more aloof inhabitants of the castle.

Silicon

14

Silizius

The name of our first monster is Silizius. Silicon is the second most common element on earth (after oxygen). It is everywhere around us: in sand, in pebble stone, in concrete, glass, clay etc. It is necessary for computer chips and solar cells.

Silicius the Monster is computer-nerd of the Elemonsters. As a mentor of the group he knows a lot and likes to hold lectures – a real busybody.
