Air Elemental Whirlwind is an innate ability available to Air Elementals in the game saga. The ability is initiated via script by the AI. The effect is centered on the Air Elemental and will expose all enemy creatures in the area of effect to the potential 2d8 Crushing damage. A Saving throw versus spells will negate.
In addition to the potential crushing damage, creatures with 3 Hit Dice or less will be instantly killed, with a Crushing Death animation. The instant Kill target effect has no saving throw.
The whirlwind effect will bypass Magic resistance and cannot be blocked by spell protections such as Globe of Invulnerability or Spell Trap.
