Traits

Air Form

The Air Elemental can enter a hostile creature's space and stop there. It can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide without expending extra movement to do so.

The elemental is living air—it seeps through keyholes, engulfs enemies where they stand, and moves unhindered by walls or barriers.

Actions

The Air Elemental makes 2 Thunderous Slam attacks.

Melee Attack Roll: +5, reach 10 ft.
