As recently accepted, we now split the Source Dragon profile into...every single individual 7 Source Dragon. WoG was banned for the verse (except for canonity of official material stuff), and we also had a thread to replace the WoG scans. But now that leads to an new issue: What the hell do we do about the Source Dragons elements, and should we really ignore a huge part of the lore?
Use point 1 and 2: @TheOrangeGuy09 @ByArrow @AigerTheKing @JustSomeWeirdo @Vietthai96 (Seemingly agrees with both points but thinks abilities of point 1/2 should be under 1 profile)
Use Point 1 and ignore point 2: @Mr. Bambu

Quick history:
All Elemental Powers comes from the Source Dragons. This excludes the elements from Chaos (as they are from Thunderfang, who isn't part of that group), and Darkness due to Overlord being the source/embodiment of evil and Darkness (which Darkness litterally is from). This means that each Source Dragons represent a source to a group certain elemental power

Before I start, this is NOT a propositon to unban WoG
The problem? Since we can't use WoG anymore, we technically cannot use statements like this one which are confirmation of which SD is the source of what elemental power, which kinda means ignoring the lore and dunking on the entire reason why we split them into multiple character profiles to begin with
The solution? Here's essentially what I propose:
1. Every single Elemental Master Ninjas (here, here and here) with the exception of Jay, Sora and Frak (due to not having a Ninja suit like the Ninjas) have the insigna the Source Dragon to which their powers belong from imprinted on their suits. This shouldn't be considered random as Lloyd, who has the symbol of the SD of Life printed on his suit, has been confirmed to belong to the Source of Life by the Dragon himself. This should solve a small bit of the problem, but what about all the other EMs? This is where we go to Point 2
2. Doc Wyatt, the current writer of DR, has revealed a few months that there is an official chart where all of those elements belonging to what Sources, a chart he said is meant for official material (book) too, are listed. Glen, a lead writer for the show, has decided to reveal some of the elements from that chart. He later kept his promise and did multiple posts like this (also confirming that everything from Point 1 was indeed the canon status of the insigna on the suits).
Since we are technically using information from official material that has been revealed by a writer, and not just a random Q&A post, are we allowed to use those specific posts/descriptions for their abilities, OR just ignore that part of the lore and rely on Point 1 only and prayers that the list will be released one day for their profiles?
