[QUOTE="graydoom, post: 316713, member: 164"] As a flavor thing, I would have its Fort save be poor (that would move it down to +5, I think). I don't think it would really matter all that much (there isn't much that requires a Fort save that isn't covered by either elemental immunities or magic immunity), and IMO it fits to give the Magic Elemental the strong save that none of the 4 normal elementals get, as useless as it may be. As for the appearance, I'd tend to think of a magic elemental as just a cloud of magic energy that can manipulate itself by forming appendages when needed (such as tentacles/arms for smacking the poor PCs :)). CR looks about right, but don't take my word for it, I'm never good at estimating CR when it gets above 10 or so. Seems like a normal fighter or two would kill it pertty quickly, though. [Edit] Oh, and I think it should float :). I just picture it that way -- floating a few feet above the ground as it moves :D. [/QUOTE]
