The wind wraith is a miniature windstorm all unto itself. Heavy air currents swirl around the wind wraith, obscuring its form and making it much more difficult to hit the elusive creature. The wind wraith bobs and weaves within the gusting air streams, directing them to maximum effect against its foes. The only part of the wind wraith that seems easy to see is its crimson, glowing eyes, which appear to float steadily despite the thunderous winds around it.

==Hunting strategies==

There is no effective non-magical method for hunting wind wraiths other than tanking DS and/or TD into invulnerability. If you have sufficient DS to be untouchable when prone and stunned, you can cut some slack on the TD, and if they can't ward you even with their pushdown you can cut some slack on the DS. Disruption is useful for the effect on the wraith's CS if you are borderline on the TD tanking.

Wind wraiths have a spirit draining ability on a successful hit. The target's TD gets pushed down according to the damage taken. e.g. a character with a spirit TD of 245 who is hit for 12 points of damage will only have a TD of 233 against the the spirit drain effect. Each successful drain gives a boost of 25 to the wraith's AS.

<pre{{log2|margin-right=325px}}>
A wind wraith claws at you!
AS: +348 vs DS: +196 with AvD: +25 + d100 roll: +1 = +178
... and hits for 12 points of damage!
Blow raises a welt on your right arm.
CS: +290 - TD: +233 + CvA: +15 + d100: +45 == +117
Warding failed!
The wraith swells with power as it consumes a little of your soul!
</pre>

Wind wraiths have a direct magical attack ability (against sorcerer TD):

<pre{{log2|margin-right=325px}}>
A wind wraith suddenly lashes outward with gale force blasts of wind and waves of magic!
CS: +297 - TD: +235 + CvA: +15 + d100: +88 - +15 == +150
Warding failed!
You scream in pain and fall to the floor as the discordant screeching pierces your ears!
You are stunned!
</pre>

Wind wraiths may also avoid attacks by turning [[invisible]] right before the attack:

<pre{{log2|margin-right=325px}}>
You chant a reverent litany, clasping your hands while focusing upon the Smite spell...
Your spell is ready.
You channel at a wind wraith.
A wind wraith is enraged by your attack!
As you complete your motions toward the wraith, it suddenly vanishes from view, leaving you casting at nothing but thin air!
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
</pre>

==Other information==
Killing a number of wind wraiths generates [[small glowing vial]]s.

The fire mage isn't tall, standing no more than five feet, but her harrowing image is more than intimidating. Blackened skin of her face is framed with a wild mane of silvery hair, which lifts in the smoke and flames rising from the mage's robes like writhing serpents. Twin pits of fire glare out of the apparition's eye sockets, constantly sweeping her surroundings with maleficent intent.

A fire mage retrieves a small, smoky crystal globe from within her robes. With a thoughtful look on her face, the mage gazes into the globe for several seconds. A dark look passes over her as she returns the globe to the depths of her robes, and she is obviously disturbed.

At first glance, the fire sprite looks like nothing more than a ball of whirling flame, spitting smoke and ricocheting about the rocks like a dervish. Gradually, her form coalesces, extending elongated arms and fingers, and short gnarled legs from the sphere of fire. The fire sprite's hideous features are pulled into a grimace of hate, and her eyes are like two glowing coals, which spout sparks as the creature wavers in and out of her tenuous configuration.

Elemental bow

That's the most definitive information on the elemental bows that I've seen to date. I wanted to compile a list of what they look like and possibly the current owners. I remember hearing about an elemental crossbow too. Was it one of the originals? Have any of them been lost to invasions, lockouts or anything? I remember seeing one of the originals on someone in Illistim but I'll be darned if I can remember who that was.
Note: If anyone wants off this list or be known as an alias, please just let me know.

*One of the original Banthis bows was lost shortly after the auction. There are most likely only 4 bows remaining in circulation.

==Banthis's Original Five Elemental Bows:==

Banthis bows are, in their original state, 5x/5x bows that flare their particular element on every shot and are permablessed.

{|
| '''Bow''' || '''Element''' || '''Current Owner'''
|-
| an elemental bow of [[Fire critical table|fire]] || Fire - longbow class || NA
|-
| an elemental bow of [[Cold critical table|ice]] || Ice || NA
|-
| an elemental bow of [[Acid critical table|acid]] || Acid || NA
|-
| an elemental bow of [[Lightning critical table|electricity]] || Electricity - short bow class || NA
|-
| an elemental bow of [[Impact critical table|impact]] || Earth - composite bow class|| NA
|}

==Uska's Six New Style Elemental Bows:==

{|
| '''Bow''' || '''Element''' || '''Current Owner'''
|-
| a weathered long bow inlaid with tiny bloodstones || Acid || NA
|-
| a weathered long bow with the elemental rune of acid burned into the front || Acid.(Is this the same one as the above but got altered?) || NA
|-
| a blue frost-flecked bow || Cold || NA
|-
| a vaalorn-bound modwir bow inlaid with brilliant white diamond stars || [[Vacuum critical table|Air]] (Void) || NA
|}

''Loresong:'' The noise and light fades around you. Blinking your eyes you find yourself among an armed and armored group of Sylvankind, many sporting wounds and bandages. All around the sounds of heavy fighting filters in from among the trees. Screams and cries of things only dreamt of in nightmares can be heard coming from the edges of the encircled position the Sylvans hold. The leader of the band, an arrow protruding from the shoulder, gives an unheard command and her retainers begin stripping off the most powerful of their artifacts. Once shorn of the items they wrap them in cloth and place them in a chest. The chest is then lowered into a hole dug beneath a massive oak's roots and covered with loamy earth. The sole remaining cleric in the group blesses the ground to hide the cache from the unholy. The leader of the band gives a curt nod and the group with you among them draw their remaining weapons and charge one last time into the forest. Suddenly feeling a sharp pain, you see a feathered shaft has sprouted from your chest. With a final scream you collapse and everything around you goes black.

==Khaladon's Nine WaveDancer Style Elemental Bows:==

{|
| '''Bow''' || '''Element''' || '''Current Owner'''
|-
| a deringo composite bow || Unaligned || Odysia
|-
| a deringo composite bow || Unaligned || NA
|-
| a deringo composite bow || Unaligned || NA
|-
| a ruic long bow || Chaos || Odysia
|-
| a silk-bound elven bow || Chaos || fallenSaint (see note below)
|-
| a ruic long bow || Chaos || NA
|-
| a glowbark heavy crossbow || Wood || NA
|-
| a glowbark heavy crossbow || Wood || NA
|-
| a fireleaf heavy crossbow || Wood || The Nalfein Kitten
|}

The fifth bow ("a silk-bound elven bow") in the immediately preceding list has the following long description: The ruic limbs are exceptionally maintained, allowing a draw of impossible ease. A length of dark grey silk is tightly bound across the bow which is further secured by intervals of coraesine banding. Its drawstring is nothing more than a wisp of smoke, fleeting and insubstantial.

That's the most definitive information on the elemental bows that I've seen to date. I wanted to compile a list of what they look like and possibly the current owners. I remember hearing about an elemental crossbow too. Was it one of the originals? Have any of them been lost to invasions, lockouts or anything? I remember seeing one of the originals on someone in Illistim but I'll be darned if I can remember who that was.
Note: If anyone wants off this list or be known as an alias, please just let me know.

** One of the original Banthis bows was lost shortly after the auction. There are most likely only 4 bows remaining in circulation.

==Banthis's Original Five Elemental Bows:==

Banthis bows are, in their original state, 5x/5x bows that flare their particular element on every shot and are permablessed.

''Loresong:'' The noise and light fades around you. Blinking your eyes you find yourself among an armed and armored group of Sylvankind, many sporting wounds and bandages. All around the sounds of heavy fighting filters in from among the trees. Screams and cries of things only dreamt of in nightmares can be heard coming from the edges of the encircled position the Sylvans hold. The leader of the band, an arrow protruding from the shoulder, gives an unheard command and her retainers begin stripping off the most powerful of their artifacts. Once shorn of the items they wrap them in cloth and place them in a chest. The chest is then lowered into a hole dug beneath a massive oak's roots and covered with loamy earth. The sole remaining cleric in the group blesses the ground to hide the cache from the unholy. The leader of the band gives a curt nod and the group with you among them draw their remaining weapons and charge one last time into the forest. Suddenly feeling a sharp pain, you see a feathered shaft has sprouted from your chest. With a final scream you collapse and everything around you goes black.

The fifth bow ("a silk-bound elven bow") in the immediately preceding list has the following long description: The ruic limbs are exceptionally maintained, allowing a draw of impossible ease. A length of dark grey silk is tightly bound across the bow which is further secured by intervals of coraesine banding. Its drawstring is nothing more than a wisp of smoke, fleeting and insubstantial.

Well Khaladon responded to a thread and posted the following...

-----

>To clarify all the magical bows that been made... 
>After archery came out, an auction had 5 bows called "an elemental bow of XXXX" back in the day when the only flare types were fire, ice, acid, electricity, and impact. They are all 10x weapons basically. 
>Uska a couple years ago released a handful of bows at Anfelt and one at Ciston's auction to benefit the troops. I think the total is 6 of them. They are 0x weapons (which is really bad for DS for archers), and the enchant is based on level, with only rangers able to get past 5x. 
>I made a slew of varying types for the WaveDancer, releasing 18 in total, 3 of each type. 
>The arrow making bows came in 3 types, flaring (all the flare types we have now, and the chance of flaring is much greater than 10 percent, contrary to the prior posts), randomly damage weighted, and just arrows. All the arrows range from +1 to +30, and with the bows being +20, its a +21 to +50 weapon.
