Earth Elementals generally appear as a squat, craggy mountain, often with a short neck or no neck at all and fists like a boxer. Their defenses are second to none as is the damage they can cause with one of their monstrous fists, but they are slow-moving and easy to fool. Damage from the fist of an earth elemental causes 4 dice of damage for tiny ones up to 10 dice of damage for gargantuan ones. Tiny and very small earth elementals can manipulate earth as a third degree skill-user, small and medium as fourth, large and extra-large as fifth, and gargantuan as sixth.
Water wielded as a weapon against them uses up one point of their mana per degree of the character wielding.
To make up for the fact that they do not move all that fast and are earthbound, medium and larger earth elemental can also hurl boulders starting at 4 dice of damage for medium ones up to 7 dice of damage for gargantuan ones.
