Each breathing creature it passes through must attempt a DC 25 Fortitude save. On a failure, the creature inhales part of the elemental and is immobilized for 1 minute by the pain of the smoke rasping in its throat and lungs. A creature can attempt to end this condition by spending an action coughing and succeeding at a DC 25 Fortitude save.Painful Exhalations [two-actions] Requirements At least one creature within 40 feet is immobilized from the smoke creeper's Choking Swoop; Effect The smoke creeper flaps its wings, violently drawing the lingering smoke free from all creatures immobilized from its Choking Swoop within 40 feet. Each target must attempt a DC 25 Fortitude save. On a failure, the creature is enfeebled 1 for 1 minute and sickened 1 (enfeebled 2 and sickened 2 on a critical failure). Regardless of the result, the creature is no longer immobilized from the smoke creeper's Choking Swoop.
Air And Smoke
Elementals of smoke, such as the smoke creeper, are often cruel in their attacks on breathing creatures, causing them to choke and cough from their noxious fumes. Some believe that they hold secret allegiances to Ymeri, who holds domain over fire and smoke.All Monsters in "Elemental, Air"
Elemental, Air
Source Monster Core pg. 140 1.1Hailing from the Plane of Air, these beings appear in a variety of sizes and shapes. They're noted for being elusive, swift, and often difficult to detect due to being composed primarily of air.

Spellcasters on the Material Plane call upon elementals for aid, though these enigmatic creatures can also travel to the world of mortals via interplanar gateways and rifts. The elementals on these pages exemplify the creatures of the Elemental Planes, but this list is by no means exhaustive.
Diverse Elementals
The Elemental Planes are more than expanses of sky, rock, metal fire, wood, and ocean. Clouds of fog, dust, and storms float through the Plane of Air. The Plane of Earth includes verdant groves, shining metal and crystal, and irradiated wastelands. The Plane of Fire features magma, suffocating smoke, and radiant firelight. Amid the endless sea of the Plane of Water are pockets of ooze and brine, plus the otherworldly environs of the deep.
Elemental Wyrms
The icewyrm is the most widely encountered elemental wyrm, but others exist as well, including the blazing firewyrm, the sleek but somewhat smaller sparkwyrm, and the largest of them all, the immense and acidic sludgewyrm.
