Elementals for the Whole Periodic Table?

Cartoonist Kaycie D. has been comping up with characters to represent each of the elements of the periodic table since her high school Chemistry class. Many years later, she's come up with characters personifying each of the 112 elements of the periodic table. She's illustrated each with a brief description of the element, which usually explains why she chose to draw the character the way she did.
