airspirts

Airspirts are a fictional concept often found in fantasy literature and folklore. They are typically depicted as elemental beings associated with the air or wind. Unlike more tangible creatures, airspirts are often described as ethereal, invisible, or appearing as swirling masses of air or mist. Their nature can vary greatly depending on the source material, but they are commonly portrayed as capricious, swift, and possessing a degree of magical ability related to controlling weather patterns or influencing breezes. Some stories depict them as benevolent spirits that guide travelers or bring gentle winds, while others portray them as mischievous or even dangerous entities that can cause storms or carry away objects and even people. Their interactions with the mortal world are usually indirect, often manifesting as unexplained gusts of wind or subtle shifts in atmospheric conditions. The concept of airspirts draws upon ancient beliefs about the personification of natural forces, particularly the intangible yet powerful element of air.
