Earth (Element)

**Earth** is one of the ten primary Elements of the universe, wielded by Geomancers and Geokinetics. The others include;

Fire

Ice

Water

Electricity

Wind

Light

Darkness

Nature

Poison

Its opposite is Wind.

## Element Description

Earth techniques, unlike the techniques of their opposite Element of Wind, seem sluggish to perform, utilizing slow, deliberate, and sometimes forceful movements to devastating effect. Earth techniques hit incredibly hard, making up for their lack of speed through sheer power alone.

### Notable Interactions with Other Elements

**Blue** = no contest (victor)

**Green** = typically strong match-up

**Yellow** = typically even match-up

**Red** = typically poor match-up

**Purple** = no contest (loser)

**All scenarios assume that the involved combatants are 'normal' (I.E not deities or unusual cases in general)**

* **Fire** - While a master-level Fire wielder could overpower a novice Earth wielder, Earth techniques are more than capable of smothering the flames wielded by a Fire wielder; between two combatants of equal level, the Earth wielder typically has the upper hand.
