The 'lesser lightning elemental' skill is a mid level mage ability that summons a small lightning elemental from the ethereal plane of lightning to do your bidding. Your mana fuels and sustains the elemental, and the elemental will need your mana to heal.
The strength of the summoned elemental is dependent on the casting level of the summoner, and more powerful elementals require more mana to maintain. Lowering or raising mage casting level is an effective way to control mana costs and the power of the summoned elemental. Medium sized elementals can be summoned with the 'lightning elemental' skill, and require higher mana and control costs. Greater elementals can be summoned with the 'greater lightning elemental' skill, and are even more difficult to control.
Lightning elementals specialize in dealing damage, but are easy to destroy and have little in the way of defense.
