A spirit drawn from the elemental plane of air. It exists in this world as a swirling vortex of air, often dissipating and reforming.

Useful Info

Air elementals are animated beings of wind, fast and evasive and capable of dealing moderate physical damage. They occasionally dissipate, effectively submerging in any tile, only to reappear a few turns later. They are almost never found naturally except in the Abyss, the Cloud Mages' Chambers, and certain vaults, but they can be summoned either through the Summon Elemental or Summon Air Elementals spells, or by evoking a fan of gales.

Tips & Tricks

• Air elementals are immune to all Air Magic. As such, even though Airstrike and Tornado seem perfectly suited for taking down hard-to-hit flying enemies, these just won't work.
