Calling upon the elemental forces that run through the world, the shaman is the undisputed master of the elements. Her relationship with Nature - and by extension, Gaia - is not one of worship, but of acknowledgment, a symbiosis between the spirit of the universe and one of those she considers her children who dwells within that existence. While Gaia herself is a passive, reactive entity, she bestows her gifts upon those who meditate upon the nature of the world and who would seek to maintain the natural balance: shamans, then, are effectively her agents in the world.

Shamans - and other geomancers - do not call upon the stuff of which the world is made. Even those who manipulate elements found readily in nature - air, earth, water - are not using the physical manifestations of those elements, but are instead manipulating the thread of the elements that is interwoven into reality itself. An earth shaman, for instance, does not manipulate actual rock and stone, but instead the thread of energy woven into the world that ''represents'' earth - thus, the results of her bending are not permanent creations, but instead temporary modifications of energy flows.
+
−
 
+

For the shaman, balance is paramount. While she can freely choose to work with only one element, her ability to interact with the energy flows at the heart of existence are heightened if she chooses to work with an opposing pair of elements, naturally counterbalancing each other both in terms of the shaman's ability to manipulate the elemental energy as well as complementing gifts granted within those energies, making shamans often well-rounded. Shamans must take care in using their powers, for calling too much upon a given element will cause Gaia to seal it against her: while this may seem unfair, for Gaia, nothing is more important than maintaining balance - even her agents must abide by the truths of Nature, even if it means putting them in grave danger.

What we're doing here is establishing a baseline for social combat, which - in turn - may be a baseline for other non-combat minigames.

Part of the problem with something like social combat is that we want things that are analogous to weapons, but you don't buy a red herring argument. Well... okay, there is always the theory that you can purchase social tactics by spending some kind of currency you gain by doing research, but that's a whole other thing and gets complicated. So we're not going to touch that for right now.
