Description

Known as Euli in the elven tongue, earth magic is known mostly for its strength. Earth is the growth element, able to conjure up plant-life and vines from the ground to use both for offense and defense. Skilled geomancers can throw boulders, camouflage into their surroundings and create earthquakes. Sometimes using the old Eldalair word, Euli before casting can enhance the power of earth spells. Geomancers are typically strong and sturdy yet peaceful mages, valuing life, building, wealth and growth. The earth is as old as time itself, and its protector is the Father, the ancient god Asmundis. Delvheim often produces more earth mages. Earth mages become disadvantaged at sea and get their best strength on land.
