Transform the Landscape

Level: 2
Duration: 1 minute
You can cause the ground to crack and split beneath your enemies’ feet, impeding their progress, or you can smooth the ground beneath the feet of your allies, making their passage easier.
You can temporarily create or remove difficult terrain in the affected area. You can cause the natural terrain in the area to buckle and crack, making it much more diffi cult to traverse. The difficult terrain does not obscure line of sight or provide cover. Alternatively, you can smooth an area of difficult terrain for your allies, eliminating penalties to movement or skill checks the terrain would normally impose. Eliminating difficult terrain with this utterance does not eliminate terrain features that provide cover. As you deliver this utterance, the ground shifts and flows to take on the characteristics you seek, eroding obstacles impossibly quickly or creating new debris through minor temblors. For the purposes of smoothing difficult terrain, light rubble, dense rubble, and undergrowth all count as difficult terrain when using this utterance. After the utterance’s duration expires, the affected terrain resumes its normal shape and position.
