Given the outfit and streak of white light, it looks like Holy Hand Grenade to me.

[up] I dont think the literal Blow You Away should be an image for this trope since it isnt about that its about Wind magic/power users.

Hilariously enough, Red Tornado IS magical. He is an elemental avatar.

[up][up] Directly refering to the punny title will make it seem more like its literal IMO.

Anyway we seem to have a few good options now so crowner?

I'm inclined towards The Windy Thing here, but that Avatar one is also great.

Raso raised a good point. People could mistake it for a trope about people getting blown away.

I'm liking Mega Man at this point.

I like the Mega Man ones and Aang with funnel.

Aang with wind funnel gets my vote.

Go ahead with the crowner.

...You know, I purposely left out any arbitrary image suggestions so that we wouldn't have a crowner with 50,000 examples on it. That many, and people stop caring and won't vote for them all.

ESPECIALLY "Endymion Warlock" as, being a spell counter deck user myself, I know all of the Endymion cards, and that one does not exist; it's a fake some guy made with fan art and posted online. It would be one thing if it was fan art, but it posing as a card counts as double offense.

Yegh, I'm really not fond of the Megaman one because, Mega Manning aside, that's not a power of his by nature. He's just borrowing it.

Besides, it doesn't look like he's actually creating the tornados; they're just floating around him. You could easily replace them with teddy bears and it would look the same.

[up] He's borrowing the power, yes, but he's still using it.

Would you say that him using Atomic Fire shouldn't qualify as an example of Playing with Fire?

And I think it looks at least like he's got some power over the tornadoes.

I have a message from another time...

Yeah it's an example, but due to its temporary nature it doesn't really deserve to be the trope page image.

Because that's a standard power of Mario's.

Making tornados isn't a standard power of Mega Man's; he just happened to Mega Man it in that specific game.
