Version 0.13: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.


Type Miscellaneous item
Name fan of gales
Icon Fan of gales.png
An enchanted fan inhabited by benevolent air spirits. Swinging the fan unleashes a blast of wind around the bearer and sets the spirits free to sweep away the bearer's enemies. Once released, the spirits within this device will dissipate, leaving it inert, though new ones may be attracted as its bearer battle through the dungeon and grows in wisdom and power.

A fan of gales is an evocable item which summons one to three air elementals, as well as calling forth a wind blast. The higher your Evocations skill, the more elementals are likely to be summoned.

Strategy

The wind blast is very useful for pushing back enemies that have gotten too close. In addition, air elementals are powerful allies. They always summon friendly, so feel free to use this when in trouble or before a big fight.

History

In 0.13 this item replaced the air elemental fan.
