Air (element)
- "I hear people talk of whether the rainy season or the sunny season is preferable. Me, I am partial to the subtle beauty of the windy season—the waving grass, the whispering trees, the invisible but very real caress of Mother Nature…"
Air (scientific notation: Ae) is third of the six Base elements of the Dwaian realm. It is marked by low density, flexibility, compressibility, and the tendency to scatter everywhere, as well as a nice minty taste. It is essential in animal biology, where it serves as a catalyst for bodily reactions. Air has its own class of Magics, sometimes called the Aeromancies, though the scientific literature calls it "blowing really hard".
The following is a table of the six elemental Aspects, and how they congregate with Air to form new elements:
| Aspect | Air Ae |
|---|---|
| Death | Zyklon 🅱 Ae† |
| Life | Breath Ae∲ |
| Regression | Braps Ae↓ |
| Progression | The Cloud Ae↑ |
| Ascension | Pomf Ae⧺ |
| Ultimate | Succ Ae♯ |
These elements that are based on Air all exhibit similar physical properties, especially in their gaseousness.
Air traditionally carries with it the association of Wisdom, as well as that of all things that are fleeting.
