Aside from the rules forbidding it, is there any reason I should be careful with giving Air, Earth, Fire and/or Water Elementals the Fiendish template?
Anyone have any further thoughts on making evil elementals for E6 games?

IIRC the Dragon Compendium has a template to make elementals demonically infused. that could help with what you are looking for.

Oddly, the Half-fiend template is still legal for them.

@ dysproisum: Thanks, sounds interesting. I'll have to see if I can't get access to DC somehow.

@ hamishspence: That's hilarious! It even grants bat wings and claw/bite attacks. :smallsmile:

I don't think you'd really need to be especially careful, It's not a very powerful template, particularly for elementals who already have a bit of DR usually. I think it sounds like a great idea!

@ DreganHiregard: Thanks. I think you're right, I'm just wondering if I'm missing something - wouldn't be the first time.
And welcome to the the playground!

Do you want them to be evil, or are you looking to add more/different powers to them? Because you could just make them evil.

I'd like them to be more than merely of evil alignment, as I intend for the fire elementals to try to set a major city ablaze (partly for the evulz). Not something your average evil guy is likely to do, as it puts a bit of a bullseye on your chest.
A few unexpected powers will be nice too, as fire elementals on their own can get a little boring.
