COMBAT
They rarely engage in combat, using a shearing blast
of intensely focused wind to pummel their opponents when they do so and using their slam attack if
pressed.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the
aerial servant must hit an opponent of up to Large
size with its slam attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.
Constrict (Ex): An aerial servant deals
2d8+12 points of damage with a successful grapple
check against Large or smaller creatures. Because it
seizes victims by the neck, a creature in the aerial
servants grasp cannot speak or cast spells with verbal components.
Wind Blast (Su): Line 5 feet wide, 5 feet high,
and 80 feet long, once ever 1d4 rounds; 4d8 points
of damage and creatures of Large or smaller size are
knocked down and back 1d4x10 feet. A successful
Reflex save (DC 26) halves the damage and negates
the knockdown.
Natural Invisibility (Su): This ability is constant, allowing the aerial servant to remain invisible
even when attacking. This ability is inherent and is
not subject to the invisibility purge spell.
Find Target (Sp): When ordered to locate a
creature or an object, an aerial servant does so unerringly, as though guided by discern location. The
caster must know the designated creature.
Empathic Link (Ex): When summoned, the
aerial servant creates a mental link between itself
and the caster who summoned it. Should the aerial
servant fail the mission it has been assigned, it will
return to the caster and attack. The aerial servant
can find the caster as long as they are on the same

A chamrol is an elemental creature that seems to
blend qualities of a plant, animal, and mineral. It is
COMBAT
Chamrols attack with their tentacles, slapping and
attempting to grapple opponents.
Energy Burst (Su): Once per day, the chamrol can generate a cone of energy to a range of 100
feet. A creature caught in the area takes 1d4+5
points of damage unless it makes a successful Reflex
save (DC 14). A chamrol deals +1 point of damage

Speed: 30 ft
COMBAT
Cryonax attacks with his tentacles and spell-like
abilities in combat. A frozen character (one hit by
his tentacle attack that fails a save) is shattered at
the first opportunity.
Freezing Touch (Ex): A creature hit by Cryonaxs tentacle attack must succeed at a Fortitude
save (DC 18) or be frozen in place for 1d6+4 minutes

are considered helpless, and have a hardness of 0. A
frozen character brought to 0 hit points, shatters
into pieces. If unfrozen, the being has similar damage and deformities.
Cold Aura (Ex): Cryonaxs body generates
intense cold dealing 1d6 points of cold damage to all
creatures within 10 feet of him. Creatures attacking
Cryonax unarmed or with natural weapons take 1d6
points of additional cold damage each time their

Crystalle is the self-proclaimed ruler of the mineral
elementals. He would, in fact, love to be the ruler of
the whole plane of Earth, if there weren't so many
other beings more powerful than he. He serves as a
powerful overlord to his subjects, making proclamations to the masses from his gem-laden throne,
made from the rarest of minerals.
Crystalle appears as a crystalline giant of 22 feet tall,
wielding a great scepter made from rare gemstones.
He is surrounded by a veritable cloud of ioun stones
at all times, and has access to rare types of ioun
stones not known on the Material plane. Some of
COMBAT
Crystalle is the most powerful of the mineral elementals, and is a truly formidable opponent due in
large part to his high intelligence and cunning. Crystalle is feared for his massive collection of ioun
stones, which includes types so rare that only he and
some of his minions know where they can be found.
Spells: Crystalle replicates arcane spells as a
14th-level sorcerer (save DC 14 + spell level).
Prismatic Sphere (Sp): Once per day, Crystalle can use this ability as a 20th-level caster (Will
save DC 23). It is otherwise similar to the spell of the
same name.
Scepter: Crystalle's scepter functions as a staff
of the magi and a rod of absorption. It has unlimited charges and functions only in the hands of Crystalle or a greater earth elemental god (if such a being
exists).
Ioun Stones: Crystalle is never without at least
20 functional ioun stones (never any dull gray dead
stones). These powerful gems amplify his abilities,
even beyond what is listed above.
Crystalle has access to ioun stones that are so rare
and powerful, that they are only usable a few times
before they shatter from the immense positive energies stored within. Each of these stones is unique,
and here are a few examples of such stones:
Fossilizer: (Indigo blue trapezohedron) Generates a fossilization pulse to a range of 30 feet. A
creature struck must succeed at a Fortitude save
(DC 20) or be turned to stone (80%) or be turned
into a crystal, gold-veined statue embedded with
gemstones (20%). Only a miracle of wish spell can
reverse this last effect. After 1d6 uses, this stone
burns out and turns dull gray.
Wish Stone: (Frosty white octahedron) Contains
1d3 wishes. Once all the wishes are gone, this stone
burns out and turns dull gray.
Transmuter: (Blood red orthorhomboid) Converts nonliving minerals in a 10-foot cube into energy.
Energy drainer: (Black pyritohedron) Drains all
magical energy from a nonliving item, or inflicts one

COMBAT
An earth weird is a very hostile creature and will
attack as soon as a living creature comes within
range. It attacks by wrapping itself around an opponent and suffocating it. Earth weirds will attack until
it or its prey is dead.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the
earth weird must hit a Medium-size or smaller creature with its slam attack. If it gets a hold it attempts
to smother the opponent.
Smother (Ex): An earth weird automatically
deals slam damage with a successful grapple check
against an opponent of up to Medium-size. A grappled opponent also takes suffocation damage (see
Suffocation, page 88 in the DMG) each round the
hold is maintained.
Earth Mastery (Ex): An earth weird gains a
+1 attack and damage bonus if both it and its foe
touch the ground. If an opponent is airborne or waterborne, the elemental suffers a 4 penalty to attack and damage. (These modifiers are not included
in the statistics block.)
Natural State (Ex): An earth weirds natural
form is that of a pile of earth or dirt. In this form it is
effectively invisible until it assumes its serpent form
and attacks.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits. Earth
weirds have darkvision with a range of 60 feet.
Immune to Piercing Weapons (Ex): An
earth weird is able to flow around any piercing attacks, thus suffering no damage from piercing
weapons.
Tremorsense (Ex): An earth weird can automatically sense the location of anything within 20
feet that enters its mud pool.
Vulnerabilities (Ex): An earth weird that is
drenched with at least one gallon of water acts as if
slowed (as the slow spell) for 3 rounds. An earth
weird that is completely immersed in water takes
1d6 points of damage per round.
Control winds, whirlwind, or wind wall cast on an
earth weird deals 1d10 points of damage and causes
a 2 on the earth weirds attack rolls for 2 rounds. A
move earth or passwall spell deals 1d6 points of
damage per caster level to an earth weird.

The energy pod is another bizarre form of elemental
that lives in the border areas between the Positive
Energy plane and the Elemental planes. This creature is a sphere 8 feet in diameter, with eight tentacles emerging from its body. At the end of each of
these stubby tentacles is a small cluster of glowing
nodules, with 6-24 nodules per cluster. The energy
pod absorbs positive energy and stores it in these
nodules.
Energy pods are only very rarely seen on the Material plane, and then almost always guarding magical
treasures or locations. Conjecture among sages is
that the energy pod is a distant relative of the energons, thus opening speculation that there is a negative counterpart to the energy pod.
COMBAT
The energy pod flails at opponents with its eight tentacles, but can only attack any given opponent with
two of these, and can only attack two opponents to-
tal at a time. The tentacles themselves do no damage, but cause the nodules on the end to burst and
release their power. Once all of the nodules on a
tentacle are broken, that appendage is effectively
useless, and once all of an energy pod's nodules are
used up the creature flees.
Energy Burst (Su): On a successful melee hit
with one of its tentacles, 2d4 of the nodules on a
given cluster burst open and release a powerful blast
of positive energy. Each nodule deals 2d4 points of
energy damage. When all nodules on a given tentacle have burst, that tentacle is useless in combat,
until the energy pod recharges it (by absorbing
magic, see below).
Absorb Magic (Su): The energy pod feeds on
power, and can absorb the energy of spells and
spell-like abilities. The creature automatically absorbs any spells, spell-like abilities, and similar effects from magic items used to directly attack the
energy pod. It cannot absorb area effect magic. This
energy is used to immediately create additional
nodules on a random appendage, one new nodule
for every level of the spell or power absorbed.
Acid Vulnerability (Ex): Energy pods suffer
double damage from acid.
Burrow (Ex): A mineral elemental can glide
through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth
as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A move earth spell
cast on an area containing a burrowing mineral elemental flings the elemental back 30 feet, stunning
the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.

The frigidarch is a very powerful form of paraelemental, also known as a "Frost King". There are only
six of them known to exist, and they serve as generals in the armies of Cryonax.
This creature has a short but wide, pyramid-shaped,
six-sided body which is about four feet high and
eight feet in diameter. They scuttle about on their
twelve short spike-legs set on the underside of their
bodies. They have six long, slender, flexible jointed
tentacles set around the rim of their body that end
in a jagged icicle tip. The creature's head rests at the
top of its body, at the apex of its geometric form.
The only features of this head are six gleaming eyes
spaced equally around the head, which allows it to
see in all directions at once.
COMBAT
These icy arch elementals attack with all six of their
tentacles each round, and can attack the same opponent with all of them, or attack multiple targets.
A frigidarch can use up to three of its tentacles to
cast its spell-like abilities, and can still make melee
attacks with the other three.
Spell-Like Abilities: 3/daycone of cold and
ice storm; 1/weekcontrol weather (only used to
make temperature colder).
Once every 4 rounds, the frigidarch can use the following: chill metal, control winds, snow cloud (as
an iceling with a duration of 12 rounds), and wall of
ice.
These abilities are as the spells cast by a 12th-level
sorcerer (save DC 13 + spell level).
Cold (Ex): Frigidarchs bodies generate intense
cold, dealing 1d6 points of damage with their touch
and to those within 10 feet of its body. Creatures
attacking a frigidarch unarmed or with natural
COMBAT
The galeb duhr shuns combat if at all possible. It
will use its transmute rock to mud ability to sink
into the ground and disappear. If pressed, though a
galeb duhr will not hesitate to fight using its spelllike abilities and animating boulders to attack its
foes.
Spell-Like Abilities: 1/daymove earth,
passwall, stone shape, transmute rock to mud, and
wall of stone. These abilities are as the spells cast by
a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 11 + spell level).
Animate Boulders (Sp): A galeb duhr can
animate rocks within 180 feet at will, controlling up
to two rocks at a time. The boulder has a move
speed of 10 and fights as a galeb duhr in all respects.
Animated boulders lose their ability to move if the
galeb duhr who animated them is incapacitated or
moves out of range.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits. Elementals have darkvision 60 feet.
GALEB DUHR
Cold Vulnerability (Ex): The galeb duhr suffers double damage from all cold-based effects, except on a successful save.
Skills: Galeb duhrs receive a +8 racial bonus to
Hide checks when in rocky terrain. If they stand
completely motionless, the bonus increases to +12
GLOMUS
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
The glomus is a crystalline mineral elemental creature that floats about the inner planes. It spends
most of its time on the plane of Earth, but it may
leave its home plane on the rarest of occasions. The
glomus appears as a compact mass of individual
crystals, arranged in a roughly spherical shape one
(or more) foot in diameter. The crystals are held
together, rigidly in place by a force similar to magnetism. The glomus has many sharp edges, with
crystalline spires that protrude outward at various
angles.
COMBAT
A glomus attacks by slamming its body into its opponent's, jabbing its pointed surface into the enemy.
Shatter Weapons (Ex): Any non-magical
weapon that strikes a glomus must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 20) or shatter into pieces.
Death Throes (Ex): At 0 hit points, a glomus
explodes in a violent spray of crystalline shards
dealing 1d4 points of damage to all creatures within
20 feet. A successful Reflex save halves the damage.
For each HD of the glomus above 1, it deals 1d4 additional points of damage.
One hour after the glomus explodes, its body reforms and heals all damage it has suffered. To truly
slay a glomus, it must be brought to 10 hit points.
GREATER GLOMUS
The greater glomus appears as the standard glomus,
only larger. It ranges in HD from 4 to 10 (4-5 HD
are Small, 6-8 HD are Medium-size, and 9-10 HD
glomus are Large). Use the chart in the front of the

Icelings are paraelementals from the Plane of Ice.
An iceling appears as a humanoid with three arms,
three legs, and a long, slender, hexagonal body
made of ice. The iceling has a six-sided head that
rises to a blunt point. There is a single bright, rubylike eye on each side of the icelings head.
COMBAT
Icelings are not offensive creatures, and usually
leave other creatures alone if not disturbed. Icelings
stab with their three spear-like arms and attack with
their ice storm and snow cloud abilities. On occasion, a mischievous iceling, hides in a snow bank,
throwing snow clouds at passing travelers.
Chill (Su): Icelings radiate cold from their
bodies, dealing 1d2 points of cold damage on a successful hit.
Snow Cloud (Sp): Twice per hour, an iceling
can create a snow cloud, 20-feet high with a 30-foot
radius. Creatures caught in the cloud must succeed
at a Fortitude save (DC 14) or be blinded (as the
spell) for 1d4+1 rounds from the swirling, biting
snow. A successful save negates the temporary
blindness, but still requires the creature to spend
one round clearing the snow from its eyes.
Ice Storm (Sp): Once per day, three icelings
can combine their magical energies to create an ice
storm. This effect is as the spell cast by a 6th-level
sorcerer.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
All-Around Vision (Ex): The icelings six
eyes allow them to look in any direction, bestowing a

COMBAT
A lightning quasi-elemental attacks by arcing itself
into an opponent (if the opponent is wearing metal
armor) or by releasing small globes of electricity.
Electricity (Ex): A lightning quasi-elemental
is composed completely of electricity; therefore any

Mihstu are free-willed mist creatures of a malign
nature from the Elemental Plane of Air. They like
cool, damp places that are well hidden from sunlight.
Mihtsu are not entirely solid and can shape their
bodies at will, but they usually appear as clouds of
swirling mists and vapors. They can seep through
small cracks and openings, and can spread themselves out over larger areas.
Mihstu are strictly solitary and only abide the company of those who can give them things, such as wizards who can reward them with powerful magic
items for performing a task. If intruders dont appear
to be beneficial to the mihstu, it will assume a
ghostly shape in an attempt to scare them away.
COMBAT
Mihstu form four razor-tipped tentacles from their
bodies when they enter combat. It engages another

Many a male has thrown his life away for the fleeting embrace of the "honeyed ones," the beautiful
nereids from the Elemental Plane of Water. Playful

COMBAT
Nereids have few physical attacks, but if forced into
combat, they will attack using their poison spittle
and shape water attacks.
Beguilement (Su): A creature of the opposite
sex seeing a nereid must make a Will save (DC 17) or
be instantly smitten and beguiled. A beguiled creature will seek to kiss the nereid, seemingly at all

Challenge Rating: 17
Treasure: Double standard
Alignment: Always neutral evil
Advancement:
Olhydra appears as a 35-foot tall humanoid composed of water. She has no discernable features
(eyes, nose, etc.). She dwells in a great undersea castle on the Elemental Plane of Water.
COMBAT
Olhydra attacks with her slam attack and spell-like
abilities in combat. If she becomes bored with combat or combat goes against her, she uses her summoning ability to call water creatures to her aid.
Spell-Like Abilities: 3/dayacid fog, control
water, ice storm and transmute rock to mud. These
abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 14 + spell level).
Water Mastery (Ex): Olhydra gains a +1 attack and damage bonus if both her and her opponent touch water. If she or her opponent is land
bound, she suffers a 4 penalty to attack and damage. (These modifiers are not included in the statistics block).
Drench (Ex): Olhydras touch puts out
torches, campfires, exposed lanterns, and other
open flames of nonmagical origin if these are of
Huge size or smaller. She can dispel magical fire she
touches as dispel magic cast by a 36th-level sorcerer.
Vortex (Su): Olhydra can transform herself
into a whirlpool once ever 10 minutes provided she
is underwater, and remain in that form for up to 18
rounds. In vortex form, she can move through the
water or along the bottom at her swim speed.
The vortex is 5 feet wide at the base, up to 30 feet
wide at the top, and 80 feet tall. She controls the
exact height, but it must be at least 10 feet tall.
Creatures of Huge or smaller size take damage when
caught in the vortex and might be swept up by it. An
affected creature must succeed at a Reflex save (DC
33) when it comes in contact with the vortex or take
2d8 points of damage. It must also succeed at a second Reflex save (same DC) or be picked up bodily
14
and held suspended in the powerful currents, automatically taking damage each round. A creature that
can swim is allowed a Reflex save each round to escape the vortex. The creature still takes damage, but
can leave if the save is successful.
Olhydra can eject any carried creatures whenever
she wishes, depositing them wherever the vortex
happens to be.
If the vortexs base touches the bottom, it creates a
swirling cloud of debris. This cloud is centered on
Olhydra and has a diameter equal to half the vortexs height. The cloud obscures all vision, including
darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Creatures 5 feet away
have one-half concealment, while those further away
have total concealment (see Concealment page 133
in the PHB). Those caught in the cloud must succeed at a Concentration check to cast a spell (DC
33).
Capsize (Ex): Olhydra can surface under a
boat or ship less than 20 feet long capsizes the vessel
100% of the time. She has a 75% chance to capsize a
vessel from 20 to 60 feet long, and a 50% chance to
capsize a vessel over 60 feet long.
Summon Water Creatures (Sp): Once per
day, Olhydra can automatically summon 1d3 Large
or Huge water elementals, 3d4 sea hags, 2d4 water
weirds, or 20-200 sahuagin.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
Cold Vulnerability (Ex): If Olhydra takes
damage from a cold-based attack (i.e., it bypasses
her cold resistance) she is slowed for a number of
rounds equal to the casters level.

sorcerer (save DC 13). In some cases (as long as it
does not harm the one who summoned the stalker)
the stalker will explode the fireball on itself in order
to damage all those around it.
Fire Subtype (Ex): Fire immunity, double
damage from cold, except on a successful save.

Sandlings are creatures from the Elemental Plane of
Earth. A sandling in its natural form resembles a

Sandlings are not aggressive, but will attack if provoked. A sandling attacks by slashing with a pseudopod it forms from its body. A favored tactic of the
sandling is to lie dormant against the ground and
lash out when an opponent passes over it.

cannot be flanked. Elementals have darkvision with
a range of 60 feet.

A native of either the Elemental Plane of Earth or
the Quasi-Elemental Plane of Dust (scholars are not
sure which), the sandman appears as a human constructed entirely of sand.
They hate all humans and attack them on sight because they believe humans purposefully slay sandmen to use their bodies in magical experiments.
When a sandman is slain its body crumbles to dust.
COMBAT
A sandman avoids combat if possible, preferring to
attack at night, where it can slip away from combat
if things are going against it.
A sandman attacks using its fists if pressed, but almost always relies on its sleep ability to affect those
within range. Once a creature goes to sleep, the
sandman will not attack it.
Sleep (Su): 20-foot radius or by touch, Will
save (DC 13) or sleep for 30 minutes. For the first 30
minutes of sleep, nothing short of dispel magic (or
more powerful magic) will awaken a sleeping creature.
Each 1 minute thereafter, the victim must succeed at
a Will save (DC 13) to wake up. For each minute that
passes, the DC decreases by 1. Violent shaking or
attacking a sleeping creature will wake it at this
time. Constructs, undead, and any other creature
immune to sleep effects are immune to this ability.
Protection From Arrows (Ex): A sandman
is protected by a permanent protection from arrows
as cast by a 4th-level sorcerer. This ability is inherent and cannot be dispelled.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits. Sandmen have darkvision 60 feet.

Challenge Rating: 7
Treasure: None

COMBAT
The shard attacks by slashing opponents with its
razor-sharp edges.
Keen (Ex): The edges of a shard are considered keen. Therefore, the shard scores a critical
threat on a roll of 19-20.
Color Burst (Su): Once per day, a shard can
spin rapidly and emit a paralyzing burst of multicolored light in a 30-foot radius, similar to the color
spray spell. All creatures within the area of effect
that see the shard must succeed at a Will save (DC
16) or become paralyzed for 2d4 rounds.
Shatter Weapons (Ex): Any weapon that
strikes a shard must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC
15) or shatter into pieces.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
Burrow (Ex): A mineral elemental can glide
through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth
as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A move earth spell
cast on an area containing a burrowing mineral elemental flings the elemental back 30 feet, stunning
the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save.

but are easily annoyed. Stepping on a shiverbug
hidden in the snow will rile the whole pack into action.

rounds. Damage from multiple bites does stack.

Cold Subtype (Ex): Cold immunity, double
damage from fire except on a successful save.
Skills: *Shiverbugs receive a +4 bonus to Hide

Damage: Tentacle 1d6+2 and 1d4 cold
Face/Reach: 5 ft by 5 ft/10 ft
18
COMBAT
A snowfury is a peaceful creature and only initiates
combat if it senses a fire. It becomes immediately
enraged as it rushes to put out the fire and attack
any nearby creatures it assumes is connected to the
fire. On many occasions, a snowfury gives up combat once the fire has been extinguished. High winds
have been known to infuriate a snowfury, causing it
to attack nearby creatures at random.
Chill (Ex): Snowfuries radiate cold from their
bodies, dealing 1d4 points of cold damage on a successful hit.
Engulf (Ex): An snowfury can try to envelope a
Medium-size or smaller creature in its body as a
standard action. The snowfury attempts a grapple
check that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. If it gets a hold, it envelops the victim and deals
1d6 points of damage each round it maintains the
hold.
Attacks that hit an engulfing snowfury deal half
their damage to the monster and half to the trapped
victim.
Cold Absorption (Su): A cold-base attack
cures 1 point of damage for each die it would otherwise deal.
Fast Healing (Ex): A snowfury heals only if it
is touching a piece of ice of at least Medium-size or
if the ambient temperature is freezing or below.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.

The spined shard is an elemental creature that
spends all of its time feeding off positive energy,
buried deep in the elemental plane of Earth. This
creature can travel the whole plane, but prefers to be
buried deep within the earth in areas that border on
the Positive energy plane, where it is the most dangerous and feared predator. Thankfully, these malign creatures do not often visit the Material plane.
The spined shard is shaped like a long rod about 12
feet long, with four spines jutting out from it near
the top. It also has two sets of slim tentacles, four
smaller ones at its top above the spines, and two
double-whip stingers near the bottom.
COMBAT
The spined shard uses its four small tentacles to attack, attempting to use them to bring an opponent
close enough to use its stingers. The spined shard is
a vindictive predator, and kills for no reason.
Limited Antimagic Field (Sp): The spined
shard constantly generates a fiend of magical interference similar to a limited antimagic field in a 5foot radius around its body. This field has a 75%
Stingers (Ex): A spined shard attacks a grappled opponent with its two stingers (+8 melee) dealing 2d6 points of energy damage with each stinger.
Energy Burst (Su): Four times per day, a
spined shard can emit a line of energy 5 feet wide, 5
feet high, and 70 feet long that deals 8d6 points of
energy damage. A Reflex save (DC 16) halves the
damage.
A victim struck retains a portion of the energy in its
body. For the next 10 rounds, energy arcs from the
victims body striking all within a 5-foot radius for
4d6 points of damage. A successful Fortitude save
halves the damage. Victims of the arc do not retain
the energy in their body.
Melt Weapons (Ex): Any weapon that strikes
the spined shard melts into slag if it fails a Fortitude
save (DC 16).
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
Burrow (Ex): A mineral elemental can glide
through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth
as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A move earth spell
cast on an area containing a burrowing mineral elemental flings the elemental back 30 feet, stunning
the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save.

The trilling crysmal is a close relative of the crysmal,
although it looks very different from its cousin elemental. On the Elemental plane of Earth the trilling
crysmal is quite common, where they live in great
numbers and hunt along the boundary with the
Positive energy plane.
The trilling crysmal has six long, segmented legs
that radiate from a central crystal mass. Central to
the creature's insect-like body is a huge silvery sixsided crystal that is almost 4 feet in height, making
the creature 7 feet tall in all.
COMBAT
The trilling crysmal attacks either with its razoredged legs, or with its crystalline darts.
Crystal Darts (Ex): A trilling crysmal can
loose up to six darts per day to a range of 80 feet
with no range increment. Each dart, after striking an
opponent, splinters into many smaller, razor-sharp
shards that deal 1 point of temporary Strength damage and 1d4 points of temporary Dexterity damage
to the victim. In addition, the victim suffers a 1
circumstance penalty to attacks, saves, and checks
until the splinters are removed (full round action).
Removing the splinters deals 1d6 additional points
of damage.
Shatter Weapons (Ex): Any non-magical
weapon that strikes a trilling crysmal must succeed
at a Fortitude save (DC 15) or shatter into pieces.
Spell Reflection (Su): The large crystal in the
center of the trilling crysmal has a 75% chance of
reflecting any spell cast directly on the crysmal. Area
spells are not affected. A reflected spell bounces in a
random direction and has full effect on any creature
in the area. This ability functions similar to spell
turning.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.

The vortex is a small elemental that looks like a living whirlwind. The creatures actual body is a tiny
sphere that bobs and floats within the center of its
rapidly spinning air mass. A typical vortex appears
within a whirlwind that is about 4 inches high and 1
inch in diameter, though larger specimens are
thought to exist on the Elemental Plane of Air.
A vortex is free-willed and cannot be summoned to
the material world by any known spell, although
they are sometimes drawn through rifts torn in the
world by intense storms.
COMBAT
When threatened, a vortex whips the atmosphere
around itself into a powerful whirlwind. It moves
rapidly in a circular pattern, thereby becoming effectively invisible inside the cone of air. At full effect,
the vortex is surrounded by a whirlwind that extends around it in a 5-foot radius and is about 20
feet high.
Whirlwind (Ex): When the vortex is in full
effect (1 full round action to reach full effect), it attempts to snare foes within its whirlwind. An opponent hit by the vortexs touch attack is pulled into
the whirlwind and takes bludgeoning damage each
round thereafter until the victim is slain, or the vortex is slain or flees.
The spinning deals no damage the first round, but
each round thereafter the incredible force of the
wind batters a victim senseless and deals 1d4 points
of bludgeoning damage. This effect is so violent that
each round the victim takes damage, it must succeed
at a Fortitude save (DC 12) or die from the violent
air current.
A vortex only affects Medium-size or smaller creatures. The whirlwind can only hold one Mediumsize, two Small, eight Tiny, or sixteen Diminutive or
smaller creatures at one time.

The water weird is a life form that has its origins on
the Elemental Plane of Water. They attack all living
things, draining their lifes essence as the victim lay
dying.
The water weird takes but two rounds to form from
the body of water it inhabits. It appears as a large
serpent constructed entirely of water.

The water weird lashes out, attempting to wrap itself
around its prey, dragging it into the water where the

Organization: Solitary or troupe (Yan-C-Bin plus

and 1-2 invisible stalkers)
Challenge Rating: 17
Treasure: Double standard
Alignment: Always neutral evil
Advancement:
Yan-C-Bin appears as a 35-foot tall air elemental
and makes his home in a large airy palace on the
Plane of Air.
COMBAT
Yan-C-Bin attacks with his slam attack and spell-like
abilities in combat. If he becomes bored with combat or combat goes against him, he uses his summoning ability to call air creatures to his aid.
Spell-Like Abilities: 3/daycontrol winds,
chain lightning, obscuring mist, and wind wall;
1/daycontrol weather. These abilities are as the
spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 14 +
spell level).
Air Mastery (Ex): Airborne creatures suffer a
1 penalty to attack and damage rolls against an air
elemental.
Whirlwind (Su): Yan-C-Bin can transform
himself into a whirlwind once ever 10 minutes provided he is and remain in that form for up to 18
rounds. In whirlwind form, he can move through the
air or along a surface at his fly speed.
The whirlwind is 5 feet wide at the base, up to 30
feet wide at the top, and 80 feet tall. He controls the
exact height, but it must be at least 10 feet.
Creatures of Huge or smaller size take damage when
caught in the whirlwind and might be lifted into the
air. An affected creature must succeed at a Reflex
save (DC 33) when it comes in contact with the
whirlwind or take 2d8 points of damage. It must
also succeed at a second Reflex save (same DC) or be
22
picked up bodily and held suspended in the powerful winds, automatically taking damage each round.
A creature that can fly is allowed a Reflex save each
round to escape the whirlwind. The creature still
takes damage, but can leave if the save is successful.
Yan-C-Bin can eject any carried creatures whenever
he wishes, depositing them wherever the whirlwind
happens to be.
If the whirlwinds base touches the ground, it creates a swirling cloud of debris. This cloud is centered
on Yan-C-Bin and has a diameter equal to half the
whirlwinds height. The cloud obscures all vision,
including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. Creatures 5 feet
away have one-half concealment, while those further
away have total concealment (see Concealment page
133 in the PHB). Those caught in the cloud must
succeed at a Concentration check to cast a spell (DC
33).
Summon Air Creatures (Sp): Once per day,
Yan-C-Bin can automatically summon 1d3 Large or
Huge air elementals, 1d4 invisible stalkers, 1d4
cloud giants, or 1d3 wind walkers.
Immune to Air Attacks (Ex): Yan-C-Bin is
immune to any object cast into the air (thrown objects, missile weapons, etc.). This immunity does not
extend to spells.
Elemental: Immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, and stunning. Not subject to critical hits.
Immunities (Ex): Yan-C-Bin is immune to
electricity effects and petrification.
