Description
A Blighted Ash Elemental is a sinister entity formed when blighted plants are burned, their corrupted remains fusing into a shifting mass of dark ash and embers. These creatures drift through the air, spreading choking ash and blighted energy wherever they go. Their forms are barely stable, constantly reshaping as they attempt to hold themselves together through sheer malice.
