Earth Gift Descriptions

The following are the earth gifts in alphabetical order.

DIG
Suite: Earth Small [Ground]
Bending Time: Standard action
Range: Close (30 feet)
Area: 5-foot square
Duration: Instantaneous
Defense: Reflex (see text)
Nature Inhibition: No
You gesture, bringing your hands down sharply, and before you the earth gives way.
The area you choose immediately descends five feet. (Creatures gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls made against targets at a lower elevation.)
Make a natural attack against Reflex of any creatures in the area whose space does not extend outside the affected area. If you hit, the creature remains in the area; otherwise, the creature can move to any adjacent square.

DUSTSTORM
Suite: Earth Small
Bending Time: Standard action
Range: Personal
Area: 15 ft radius
Duration: Brief Combat (5 rounds)
Defense: None
Nature Inhibition: No
You slam your foot into the ground, and dust rises, obscuring vision.
The area becomes filled with dust and rocky debris. The dust obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet. A creature within 5 feet has concealment (attacks have a 20% miss chance). Creatures farther away have total concealment (50% miss chance, and the attacker can’t use sight to locate the target).
A moderate wind (11+ mph) disperses the dust in 4 rounds; a strong wind (21+ mph) disperses the dust in 1 round.

EARTHBIND
Suite: Earth Small [Ground]

Range: Close (30 feet)
Target: One creature
Duration: Brief Combat (5 rounds)

You clench your fist in a creature's direction, and stone rises to hold them fast.
Make a natural attack against the target. If you hit, the target is immobilized for the duration.

EARTHGLIDE
Suite: Earth Modest [Ground]
Bending Time: Standard action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: Instantaneous
Defense: None
Nature Inhibition: No
You dig your feet into the ground, and the earth moves you as you command.
You slide up to your speed. Each square you leave becomes difficult terrain. (Forced movement, such as push, pull, and slide, does not provoke opportunity attacks.)

EARTHSHIFT
Suite: Earth Small [Ground]
Bending Time: Standard action
Range: Close (30 feet)
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Defense: Fortitude
Nature Inhibition: Yes
You make a rapid slicing motion with a hand, the earth moves beneath the target's feet.

Bending Time: Swift action
Range: Close (30 feet)

Bending Time: Standard action
Range: Medium (100 feet)
Area: 20 foot radius

You create a zone of difficult terrain.
When any creature that begins its turn in the zone, make a natural attack against that creature's Reflex. If you hit, the creature slides one square towards the center of the zone and is immobilized until the start of its next turn. If a creature begins its turn in the center of the zone, that creature begins suffocating.
