The air elemental is one of the four types of elementals in the dungeon. They appear both on the Plane of Air (guaranteed) and in the main dungeon (random). Unlike other elementals, air elementals can engulf players. They are fast and their main attack is to pummel the player with debris. This can be quite deadly to unprepared characters, because unlike against other whirly monsters, one cannot acquire a resistance against the physical damage done by air elementals. Air elementals are not genocidable.
In previous versions of NetHack, air elementals dealt twice the damage than they currently do; it was reduced in version 3.4.0.
