+The Earthshaker wields a powerful and versatile weapon that nonetheless suffers from a relatively short range and significant difficulties when used against flying targets. It is most often justified as a powerful stomp or ground-pound, making it a flavorful choice for extremely large users.
 This is a weapon and subject to [[UWR|universal weapon rules]].

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Have A Seat:** When the trigger die is 7+, targets directly adjacent to you become trapped as the ground beneath them briefly deforms and snaps shut again.

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Shiver They Timbers:** You create cracks in the ground when you attack. When the trigger die is 10+, you may choose one space in the attack's target area that opens up into a fissure 3 meters deep, causing any creatures occupying that space to immediately fall in. Creatures that fall into a fissure take falling damage as normal (1 point per 3 meters, applied directly to Flesh). \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Collapse:** If there's an empty space less than 3 meters under the fissure, the fissure simply opens up into it instead of being limited to 3 meters deep. This could be very bad for whatever poor bastard was caught in it. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Lingering Destruction:** Fissures opened by this effect are permanent, although they can be freely filled in or repaired via mundane means. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Escapable:** The walls of the fissure are extremely rough and provide plenty of footholds and ledges to clamber back up, allowing a creature inside to climb out on their turn. Climbing imposes an impairment on movement speed. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Pooh Hole:** If a creature is big enough to occupy multiple spaces, they do not fall into a fissure unless at least half the spaces they occupy have been opened this way. |
