Yes, the new 4th edition D&D rules seem pretty exciting. But what’s going on with the Monster Manual? No metallic dragons. No krakens. And no air, earth, fire or water elementals. As for the elementals that did make it in, well, see how you do with this quiz. 4th Edition Elemental … or Powerade Flavor?
- Arctic Shatter
- Rockfire Dreadnought
- Firelasher
- Mountain Blast
- Thunderblast Cyclone
- Solar Flare

2, 3 and 5 are elementals. The rest are Powerade flavors.

The fact that on my first viewing of this page I saw a D&D related entry has already won me over.

Woah, tricky one.
My wife got 1-5 right, but thought 6 and 7 were monsters.
Is there a cgi script somewhere that generates these things?

Nah, I just happened to notice that some of the elemental names were a little…silly.

Thunderblast Cyclone?
Seriously?
And they dumped earth, air, fire, and water elementals?
Lame.
The place where I’m moving (Little Rock) seems to have an active D&D meetup, but if there are no Fire elementals, what’s the point?
