Special abilities

• Air Senses. Can't use blindsight underwater or in an area with o air.
• Air Weapons. When it attacks it conjures a weapon out of the air itself weapon appearing and disappearing in the blink of an eye. Air weapon is a swirl of wind in the shape of a simple or martial weapon but always deals 2d6 damage of the same type as that weapon. Air weapon shaped like a ranged weapon uses the range of that weapon except acolyte doesn't have disadvantage on ranged attack rolls when attacking a target beyond weapon's normal range. Air weapons don't use any other weapon properties of weapons they mimic. Air weapon attacks are magical.
