Plasma deals with fire, lava, magma and electricity.

Blitz the Storm Striker is a Plasma Ravager from the planet Cryos, in the upcoming game Darkspore. He has mainly Lightning-based abilities, and has a slightly reptilian appearance. In a hero squad, he pairs particularly well with Magnos, due to his 'Plasma Wreath' ability, as pointed out in the 'Squads and Abilities' video from Maxis.
Krel the Living Firestorm is a canine-like Plasma Ravager from the game Darkspore.He shares his genesis type and class with Blitz.
Lumin: The Lightning Provoker is a Plasma Tempest from Darkspore. He is from the planet Cryos.His attacks are lightning-based, so to even out the plasmagenesis type, Char was given all fire-based abilities.

Unlike most Sentinels, which fight using only their bare hands, Goliath uses a weapon called the Protonic Sword, which he uses to defend refugees and exiles.
Meditron the Repair-Bot is a Cyber Tempest from the game Darkspore. He was a retired medic who inhabited Infinity, but a pack of Darkspore mutants hunted him down when he returned from an event.

Titan the Impenetrable is a Cyber Sentinel from the game Darkspore. He uses mainly heavy weaponry to defeat his enemies. Titan was the very first Living Weapon revealed to share the same class and Genesis type with another Darkspore hero.

After accidentally falling and plummeting several stories to his death, Suzu had pitty on him and brought his body back to life as a Cyborg.
SRS-42 the Missile Commander is a Cyber Tempest in Darkspore who uses ranged explosive weapons as his primary means of attack.

Of all the Female characters, she is the most feminine looking.

His abilities, although shared by most members of his species, are unique because of a natural mutation he possesses that makes him more powerful than any other fighter in his clan.

He use to be Zelem's prime test subject in his lab, and after testing out a nearly-lethal mutation experiment, Vex was not only left with the ability to teleport at will and manipulate localized time, but also gained his trademark neon blue glowing colors, a strange side-effect of the experiment.
