Air Elemental

An air elemental is a funneling cloud of whirling air with a vague semblance of a face. Although it likes to race across the ground, picking up dust and debris as it goes, it can also fly and attack from above.
An air elemental can turn itself into a screaming cyclone, creating a whirlwind that batters creatures even as it flings them away.
Air elemental myrmidons are air elementals conjured and bound by magic into ritually created suits of plate armor. In this form, they possess no recollection of their former existence as free elementals. They exist only to follow the commands of their creators.
