Recently, as a DM, I assaulted my adventuring party with an Air Elemental. Something I should learn not do because everytime I do I significiantly damage them (if not wipe some members out)! <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> Any hoo, I digress. At one point, the party's mage, casted Stinking Cloud on the Elemental. According to the MM, Elementals don't suffer from poison and don't breathe. So I said it had no effect.The mage said "Nay! Nowhere in the spell description does it say the spell is either a poison or require the individual be breathing."I countered with the arguement that while the spell may not specifically say those things it does hint at them (ex. spell components include rotten egg & skunk cabbage).Of course my decsion was final, much to the dismay of the mage.So, who was right in this scenario, the DM or the Player?</blockquote>
