Homebrew Flower Elemental Species Details

Flower Elemental

When summoned to the Prime Material plane, air elementals typically appeared as an amorphous, ever-shifting cloud. Whenever they made the rare attempt to speak, it resembled either the high-pitched shriek of a tornado or the low rumbling moan of a thunder storm. However there are rare times where, if summoned by a powerful enough being, they have an infant like sentience, that if nurtured, like that of a child, can blossom into full sentience.

Air elementals were capable of altering their bodies in the form of a small whirlwind. Over the ages, the height and diameters of these whirlwinds varied significantly, especially depending upon how powerful an air elemental was. Some were reported to be as small as 8‒16 ft (2.4‒4.9 m) tall, while others were reported being as tall as 40‒80 ft (12‒24 m) tall.

Free-willed air elementals dwelling on desolate moons in wildspace, known as moon devils, contained swirling dust and frost and had cold attacks.

Though they all roughly shared the same abilities, those in the Elemental Plane of Air that were incapable of being summoned were known to possess even greater powers.

Flower elementals are a variant of air elementals. They are almost always summoned in the Feywild, and they find it easier or prefer to show form through the petals of flowers.

Ability Score Increases

When determining your character’s ability scores, increase one score by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1. Follow this rule regardless of the method you use to determine the scores, such as rolling or point buy.
