Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War

Elwind (Japanese: エルウインド Elwind) is a recurring wind tome which debuted in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, appearing only in games which feature the three separate anima magic types of fire, thunder and wind. It acts as the second "stage" of the hierarchy of wind magic, as a counterpart to Elfire and Elthunder; it is superior to the basic Wind tome but requires a higher weapon rank to use, and in turn it is surpassed by the more advanced and powerful Arcwind and Tornado/Rexcalibur tomes.
