Is is possible to grapple an air elemental?


Rules Questions


It seems weird but I could not find a rule that says elementals are immune to grappling.


It's not all that weird. They are solid enough to punch you in the face/get punched in the face after all.

Elemental are corporeal and sentient beings. They aren't immune to grappling but have other immunities, just check the elemental traits.

Think of air elementals as solid wond, like the pressure you feel when you stick your hand out the window of a moving car.


One important though about things like air and water elementals is that they must "stay together". Normal air/water can flow around you. Air elementals must stay in one big piece of air. They can't separate and reform.

I think this is key to understanding why they can be grappled.
