As in, what represents or embodies them. Such as for fire, which is easy, a phoenix. And for water I have a serpent.

Blanking super hard on the other two, and I've been at this for a long time. Birds are probably the first choice for wind, although I'd like to try to come up with some non-animal examples as well (windspren from the Stormlight Archive crossed my mind).

Then earth, like... fuck, worms? Dirt? This is my least favorite of the four so it's no wonder I can't really think of anything.

I need more creative people in my life

Fire: Salamander
Water: Shark
Earth: Elephant
Air: Falcon

That way you cover four different genuses of animal as well.

Ents would also be a good earth option if mythological creatures are ok

Wind could be a Pegasus or Fairy

No anything, I'd like some non-animal ideas as well.

I do like the golem idea.

Trees/flowers has occurred to me, but that's more of a general nature feeling.

The windspren I mentioned are basically fairies, but I'm not really sure of their design since it's from a book and I can't find any good fanart of them

Not that I've really looked that hard

In my defense I'm still not finished with the new book and I'm afraid of spoilers

I was wondering how long it'd take for the Avatar reference, that show influences me.

If you're looking for non-animal Wind, you could go really out there and use Airplanes.
