'''Whirly girlies''' are [[Elemental family|Wind elementals]], capable of creating vortexes so strong that their skin glows from the wind shear. Contrary to what their names imply, there exists examples of both sexes in the species and the name is meant to invoke real life species such as the ladybug--a similar situation exists with [[She-slime]]s, and coincidentally both are orange.
The '''Whirly girly''' is a monster in the series.
 
==Characteristics==
Whirly girlies are orange-skinned [[Elemental family|Wind elementals]] whose lower bodies are wrapped in a reddish-pink tornado. They are capable of creating cyclones of much greater intensity than their blue-skinned counterparts. In some games, their tornadoes are said to be coloured red from the blood of their victims, but in ''IX'', their tornadoes are red due to the colour of their skin. Contrary to their English name, whirly girlies are not a monogendered species of monster.
