-Gaians wield the element of earth without necessarily being earthy themselves. If you're resistant to attacks due to being made of stone, the [[Tank]] class is a better fit. If you pass through earth and stone with ease, check out [[Burrower]]. If you mold and reshape the terrain, you're probably a [[Geomancer]]. If you straight up hit people with rocks, then you're probably a [[Basher]] or maybe a [[Thrower]]. If you know weird earth-themed magic with a primordial flavor, you're in the right place.

Conditions that deal damage over time or otherwise carry potential negative consequences when the recovery roll is too low such as Choking or Bleeding are totally harmless for petrified subjects. |

+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Protect Me, Mother:** The earth recognizes you as its own, and feeds you energy so long as you stay still to receive it. At the beginning of each turn, you automatically regain 2 points of lost Energy. Energy from this ability is regained immediately after regaining lost Attention, meaning that the Energy does not come with matching Attention to cover it. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Slow Contact:** In order to gain the benefits of the Antaeus ability, you cannot have moved from your current position at all during the previous round (either voluntarily or involuntarily). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Solid Medium:** In order to gain the benefits of Antaeus, you must currently be in contact with a solid surface (no jumping, flying, swimming, or similar). The surface in question doesn't technically HAVE to be the ground, but it must be solid. |

When anybody rolls to loot a subject that you have permanently petrified and gets a result of 10+, you gain one treasure item in addition to whatever else you would normally obtain. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Curator's Touch:** Removing the valuable bits from a statue is slow and exacting work. Looting a subject in this way requires one procedure of time per loot roll instead of being an action. If you choose to simply loot a subject the normal fast way, you cannot later try for the extra treasure by making another loot roll; what's done is done. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Team Effort:** Since you do not need to personally make the loot roll to benefit from this ability, your allies can help save time if you have multiple loot rolls you'd like to make but don't want to spend an entire procedure for each by doing them one-by-one. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Shattered Lives:** Removing the valuable bits from a statue irrevocably disfigures it. When an extended loot roll is made on a petrified subject with this ability, the subject is broken and cannot ever be restored via the Pliancy ability or by any other means. They dead for real, son. |

-|When treasure and other valuable rewards need to be generated on the fly, the referee may call for a looting roll. This most often happens when you're going through the pockets of a defeated foe and helping yourself to the contents. You can roll once per 5 levels of a defeated creature and get everything that comes up (so creatures of level 1-4 never yield any loot, but creatures of level 5-9 give one loot roll, level 10-14 give two loot rolls, and so on). \\ \\ Looting rolls are not trigger dice and thus cannot have their values changed by any class that alters the result of trigger dice. What you roll is what you get, period. |
