Crumble spirits like those unattached to material things, and vandals. Demands: In return for continued aid, dust quasielementals ask for rare minerals, art objects, and gemstones. Benefits: Who wouldn't want a dust quasielemental for a friend? A friendly dust quasielemental won't kill you right away, for one thing. There are even stories of shamans and sha'irs and dust priests being supplied by them with destructive spells. History: If the mineral quasielementals build the lattices of the worlds, dust quasielementals take them apart so they can be built again. It's thought that the spirits of Dust are the older of the two, and that they selected their duty themselves. Spiritual correspondences: Crumbling, decaying, falling apart, destruction, disintegration, ageing, and time. Material correspondences: Dust, sand, dry rot, mulch. Taboos: Dust quasielementals can never create anything themselves. Attitude: They are hostile to most everyone.
