Earth

Earth is one of the four main elements of Creation taught by Master Wu. It represents rock, dust, and other minerals of the ground. It corresponds with the Scythe of Quakes, the Earth Dragon, and the Elemental Earth Dragon, and is generally associated with the color black, brown or orange.
When the ninja were training Lloyd in Dareth's dojo, they discovered that Lloyd is capable of using all the elemental powers, including Earth, without the use of a Golden Weapon when Lloyd caused a fissure inside the dojo while chopping boards in half.
==Notable uses==
===Spellbound===
During a battle between the Elemental Alliance and the Anacondrai, the Master of Earth was manipulated by Chen to turn against his own and create a large rift in the earth that disoriented the members of the alliance.
===The Greatest Fear of All===
When the ninja break out of Kryptarium Prison, Cole uses his quakes (Earthquake Generation) to smash through the walls.
==Users' abilities==
*Geokinesis/Terrakinesis - The user is able to manipulate and generate earth and anything else related to earth (dirt, mud, sand, etc). They can also create earth/sand constructs (armor, barriers, etc.) or sandstorms, surf on the earth, liquify the ground, and control massive amounts of the earth (for example, a mountain) to the point of altering any type of terrain (for example, a mountain or a valley) or creating dusts mainly to blind opponents.
**Geokinetic Flight - The user is able to fly using earth.
**Geokinetic Attacks - The user can attack using Earth.
***Geokinetic Beam Emission - The user can fire beams of earth.
****Immobilization - The users can immobilize enemies by covering them in a layer of earth, as shown when a Stone Warrior got trapped by Lloyd.
***Geokinetic Ball Projection - The user can generate balls of earth.
**Tunneling - The user can use earth to tunnel underground as seen in "Land of Lost Things" when Cole made a tunnel for him and his friends to use to evade the Hoarder.
**Wall Climbing/Surface Scaling- Some users can move effortlessly on walls and scale surfaces.
**Geo-Telekinesis - The user can use earth to move and manipulate objects.
**Geokinetic Imprisonment - The user can bind, imprison, and/or otherwise stop an object/being by surrounding them completely by using earth.
**Lithokinesis - Users of this element can manipulate rocks in many ways, like making pillars of rock erupt from the ground.
***Geokinetic Pillar Projection - The user can create pillars of earth.
***Geokinetic Wall Creation - The user can make a wall completely made from earth to block or stop incoming attacks. They can also use the wall to attack enemies by cutting through them.
**Tectokinesis - Gives the user (possibly only a very powerful one) the ability to move tectonic plates, allowing them to create fractures and chasm (as displayed by Garmadon's Mega Weapon).
***Earthquake Generation - It can be used to cause earthquakes, allowing the user to create shaking tremors along surfaces (walls, ceilings, etc.) that creates dust and dust particles to reveal a hidden enemy or rupture the ground by pounding it. Lloyd used this to raise a portion of the ground in "The Day Ninjago Stood Still". 
****Fissure Creation - The user can create fissures to trap opponents or destabilize objects that have been implanted in the ground as seen in "Roots".
***Shockwave Generation - The user has the ability to create giant shockwaves.
****Shockwave Clap - It is possible for users to create shockwaves alternatively by clapping their hands together.
**Superhuman Strength - Some users of Earth have demonstrated the ability to possess superhuman strength.
**Superhuman Durability - Some Elemental Masters of Earth are able to withstand attacks better than an average person.
**Magmakinesis - Some users of Earth may be able to generate or manipulate magma/lava, possibly making it erupt.
***Lava Breath - As seen with Earth Dragons empowered by Cragling mud, some users can expel lava from their mouth.
**Empathy - The user has some degree of empathy on the earth as seen when Cole stated in "Land of Lost Things" that he felt the land was screaming.
**Elemental shield - The user can create an Earth elemental shield.
**Elemental Dragon - The user can create an Earth Dragon.
===Via the user's True Potential===
*Geokinetic Body - The user can temporarily transform their body completely into earth.
*Strength Enhancement - Enhances the user's strength, making them stronger than original super strength.
**Supernatural Strength - The user possesses incredible strength that allows them to effortlessly lift vehicles, large planes, and even boulders.
*Durability Enhancement - Enhances the user's durability, making them tougher than original super durability.
**Supernatural Durability/Nigh-Invincibility - The user possesses incredible durability that allows them to withstand more potent attacks and makes them immune to almost all kinds of damage.
===Higher-level powers===
*Earth Punch - The user can transform their arms into magma/molten rock and punch through anything, excluding Vengestone and corrupted Ice. This ability does not have a specific meaning as True Potential does, but rather it is simply a higher level of Earth power. Cole is the first Master of Earth to have this ability and it is exclusive to the Earth element.
**Levitation - Cole was accidentally able to levitate while he was trying to control his Earth Punch.
*Elemental Golem - The user is able to encase themselves in stone, simulating the appearance of a large stone golem.
**Geokinetic Infusion - The user can infuse objects (usually a weapon), beings or powers with earthen materials, empowering and energizing them and allowing the user to manipulate their qualities and efficiency, increasing their concussive force and mass, etc. Cole was able to infuse the power of his Earth Punch to fight the Wolf Mask Warriors.
*Dragon Form - Like the rest of the users of the elements of Creation, Earth Elementals can unlock their Dragon Form, although it can only work through a sense of unity and a sequence of movements.
**Flight - Once in dragon form, the user can fly with the wings on their back.
**Immunity to Vengestone - In dragon form, the user's powers are unaffected by Vengestone.
**Infectious crystal immunity - A user of Dragon Form is unaffected by infectious crystals.
==Symbol==
The symbol of Earth appears to be a gorilla, as seen on a few of Cole's gis. This likely represents Cole's strength.
==Notable users==
*First Spinjitzu Master
*First Elemental Master of Earth
**Over a hundred generations
***Cole's grandfather

==Trivia==
*Despite the element being named as such, it has been pointed out in the show by the characters (specifically the Cook in "Enkrypted" and Jay in "The Mask of Deception") that they do not know what "Earth" is, which implies that the planet on which Ninjago takes place is not called this.
**However, the word is still used to refer to the ground or land in general, such as when Vania asks "What is it like to command the very earth?" and Cole says "I'm surrounded by earth" in "Into the Dark" and when Hazza D'ur says Vengestone is being mined "from the earth" in "The Skull Sorcerer."
**It was later confirmed by Tommy Andreasen that, within the world of Ninjago, "Earth" simply means dirt or soil and does not refer to the planet of Ninjago.https://twitter.com/TommyAndreasen/status/1507064658930257931
*Cole's elemental shield is made of pure black and gray energy, with no hint of the brown, green, or orange colors seen in his other elemental abilities.
*It's possible that the powers of Earth and Fire could be combined to create magma.https://twitter.com/TommyAndreasen/status/785567064853544961
*According to The Book of Elemental Powers, sand is included as part of the element of Earth.
*Kruncha and Chopov are affiliated with Earth in promotional material and the Ninjago Spinners game, though this is non-canon.
*While Lloyd was shown to move mountains in "Blackout" and had the element of Earth at the time, this ability was due to his Golden Power.https://twitter.com/TommyAndreasen/status/858723971063308290
*Earth is also an Element in LEGO Bionicle and LEGO Elves, but the latter is more similar to Nature.
