Earth is magic that involves the manipulation of the earth element, and all of the aspects that come with or from the earth. Those aspects are of rock and ground, nature, growth, and regrowth. Earth Magic is divided into the following categories: Geomancy and Floramancy.
- Geomancy is most known for its focus on defense and defense empowerment. It's affinity is stone.
- Floramancy is the magic of nature and plant life. It's affinity is nature.
Earth Affinities
Those born under the element of earth will have a stronger affinity to one of two aspects of earth. Those aspects are stone, nature, and decay.
Stone is the most iconic and well known aspect of earth magic. It is the very aspect of earth itself, of the dirt, rocks, and even the mountains. Stone governs earth's power of defense and ground control. Through stone, one might create an armor of rock, summon a mighty statue to life, or move the very ground. These are your geomancers. Those with the stone affinity are stubborn and traditional, yet are also very reliable. Many of this affinity make great security personal, body guards, and laborers.
Nature is the aspect of earth that druids, the elves, and hunters most resonate with. Nature governs the living, natural world of plants, from the fungus to the mighty tall oak. It is the magic of the goddess Ova, and has the power to harm and heal. Through nature, one might mend things once broken, restore and regrow things once dead, or summon mighty roots to impale his or her enemies. These are your floramancers. Those with the nature affinity are very down to earth or your environmentalists. They make great naturalists, scientist, and activists.
Minor Elemental Manipulations
While no one can really use magic without a rune stone, those who are strong in their elemental affinity can make small tugs on their element, causing minor affects.
Stone: You can cause small manipulations like create outcroppings, move a spot of ground, and so forth. The ability to do so is an Arcana check.
Nature: You can cause small manipulations like manipulate plant growth, entangle someones feet with vines, and so forth. The ability to do so is an Arcana check.
The Two Iconic Symbols of Earth Magic
In the elemental magic of Earth, there are two iconic symbols. They are the Mountain and the Crevasse. These symbols are said to be the very source of earth magic, even though like all elemental magic in Nor'Ova, earth magic is conducted not by incantations or potions, but by manipulating the element of earth to produce magical effects.
These symbols are therefore nothing more than just symbols, representatives of the two opposing forces of magic, the positive force and the negative force. Magic as a whole is neither evil or good. It is simply a neutral force. Society doesn't judge based on what magic is used, only on how it is used and for what reason. Therefore, despite whether or not certain spells may be associated with what is considered the good or the dark side of magic, the use of spells has no effect on your alignment unless it is used for a wholly good purpose, or for a whole evil purpose.
In the elemental magic of Earth, the Mountain symbolizes the light aspect while the Crevasse represents the dark aspect.
Environmental Effects on Earth Magic
Due to the fact that elemental magic is elemental, the environment can play an effect on the magic you are casting. If the environment has a larger amount of your element present, your magic will be stronger. If the environment has a lesser amount of the element you are casting, your element will be weaker. If the element present in your environment is about average, then there would be no change.
In the case of earth magic:
- In earthly places or places where there is a lot of earth element present - such as represented by a lot of plant growth or a lot of exposed earth - earth magic effects are increased by x 1.25
- In water or in places with a lot of fire element present, geomancy effects are decreased by x 0.75.
The Soul of Earth
All who live upon Nor'Ova have within them what is known as their runic soul. It is the very part of their being that connects them to their runic element. By connecting and using your runic element more and more, your runic soul grows and strengthens.
The runic soul of earth is that of the great and mighty world tree of legend, the Yggdrasil. The various affinities have their own minor soul that they can also connect to.
- Stone: The affinity soul of stone is the Mountain. Whenever a death blow is about to happen, they have a 20% chance to ignore it completely.
- Nature: The affinity soul of nature is the the Dryad. They have a +3 immunity to all poisons and cannot be killed by poison, instead when they reach below 10% of their max Vitality, the poison will go away.
The earth soul of the Yggradrasil can be reached when the one born under earth has 5 earth spells. Once this happens, the person will have access to both the affinity soul and the runic soul. The runic soul awakens when its bearer is near certain death, blocking for a short period any and all damage to its bearer and the bearer's friends. When you only have 10% Vitality left, you have a chance for the attacks against you to be completely ignored. The chance is an intelect roll with Arcana. With each attack against you, you can roll for that chance. Should you succeed, the attacks against you and your allies will be ignored for 1d3 rounds, giving you enough time to hopefully heal.

Each round the statue will independently go up to an ally target, including yourself, and heal that target. At the end of the spell the statue will fade away. The statue can only move once per round and has a battle movement rate of 5 and a range of 3. | Hard Arcana |
| Boulder Dash | stone | 10 Soul | 5 | 1 target per boulder | instant | Dust Devil | Land Slide | By creating Boulder Dash, you create a source of earth magic that pumps out 1d6 boulders in every direction. The boulders roll to your appointed targets. If anything is in the way of the boulder from rolling directly to it’s target, it will hit that obstacle and crumble. If another target, whether it is an enemy target or an ally, gets in the path to a boulder’s target, the boulder will hit that target instead. The boulders will keep rolling in a straight path if they miss their target until they hit something else or leave the battlefield. Any boulder that leaves the battlefield crumbles upon doing so. You may assign a different target for each boulder produced and create the source of the boulders up to 7 spaces from your location. Each boulder does 4d12 points of magical damage on impact. | Hard Arcana |
| Crystal Lance | stone | 10 Soul | 5 | 1 target | instant | Dust Devil | Mud Serpent | The creation of Crystal Lance forms a large chunk of crystal with a sharp tip. This crystal is then sent out at high speeds towards a target of your choosing. The lance pierces the flesh of the target and embeds itself into the target before disappearing. The lance does 5d10 magical damage. | Hard Arcana |
| Crevasse's Pull | stone | 10 Soul | 5 | 1d8 spaces affecting any 1 adjacent space surrounding the hole and the 1 space for the hole itself | 1d8 rounds | Grounding | Pull of the Earth | With this manipulation, you open a dark hole in the ground in a location of your choosing up to 1d8 spaces away from you. The diameter of the hole is exactly 3x3 feet or 1 space. When any target, ally, enemy, even yourself, is on any adjacent space next to the dark hole, that target will lose 50% of current Vitality, Power, and Soul. That target will lose that for each round they are on any adjacent space. This even affects flying and floating targets. If a target walks over, flies over, or floats over the dark hole, they are sucked in and will not return to the battlefield until the spell’s duration ends, losing half of their Vitality, Power, and Soul each round. The hole is invisible to everyone except yourself. Everyone that is up to 4 spaces away from this spell's area of effect gets pulled closer to the hole by 1 space, unless they pass a hard brace check. | Hard Arcana |
| Entomb | stone | 10 Soul | 5 | 1d8 spaces affecting 1 target | 3 round death countdown | Grounding | Crevasse's Trick | With a swift movement the earth opens up what appears to be a mouth with a long snout and closes on the target. The earth stands, holding the target. When the earth closes around the target that is counted as 3. Target’s turn goes by and the countdown goes down to 2. The target’s turn goes by again and the countdown goes down to 1. After the target’s next turn, the earth sinks to become once more level with the rest of the ground and the target is dead. The target can be freed by attacking the earth around the Entomb spell but only with magic. The Entomb Spell has 3d% Vitality, and once that Vitality is gone, the target will be freed. | Hard Arcana |
| Mountain's Oasis | stone | 10 Soul | 5 | all allies | spell's effect happens when mortal damage takes place | Grounding | Mountain's Heart | When this spell is created nothing seems to happen. It is not until one of your allies faces death does the spell work actively. When the enemy does damage that will kill any of your allies or yourself, the magic awakens and gives the endangered ally 5 more Vitality than the amount of damage that would be taken right before the attack is carried out. | Hard Arcana |
| Metal Blade | stone | 12 Soul | 6 | 1 target | instant | Dust Devil | Crystal Lance | With this manipulation, you create a long blade of pure metal. The metal spins like a disk as it flies through the air until it lands into its target. The metal blade does initial magical damage of 6d10. During the target’s next round, the target must rip the blade from it’s own body or will be unable to act until it does so, doing extra rip out damage of 4d12 to itself. | Impossible Arcana |
| Crater | stone | 12 Soul | 6 | a 3x3 space area around and including 1 target | instant | Grounding | Crevasse's Pull | Crater recreates the fall of a meteorite on the surface of the earth but in much smaller proportions. You create a small stone that drops onto the target of the spell. The stone hits the target and the surface the target is standing on gets ripped up from underneath doing more damage. The total damage done by this spell is 5d12 points of magical damage. This spell doesn’t affect flying or floating targets. This spell affects any in the area including allies. | Impossible Arcana |
| Curse of Immortality | stone | 12 Soul | 6 | 1d8 spaces affecting 1 target | instant | Solidity | Crevasse's Darkness | With this spell you grant the target immortality. But the target soon learns what immortality means. The target turns to stone instantly, nothing more than a well sculptured statue. The target of this spell can be brought back by the right kind of magic or potion, but breaking the magic will cause the statue to shatter killing the target. Hitting the statue will also cause the statue to break. The life of whoever is sealed in stone will never be seen without the right spell or potion to restore the body. | Impossible Arcana |
