-.+Geomancers sculpt and reform the landscape, turning the world into their sandbox. This archetype requires a fair amount of creativity to use to its fullest potential but can be quite useful even in its simplest and most straightforward form. Since many Geomancer abilities make the landscape more difficult to deal with, also taking a level or two as an [[Acrobat]] can minimize any difficulties experienced by the Geomancer personally.

The target space and all other spaces within 2 meters are smoothed until the end of the current exploration turn. Smoothing removes difficult terrain and makes the area perfectly accessible to wheeled vehicles, even if it was too rough and uneven before. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Smooth Walls:** You can also choose to smooth out any walls in the area of effect, making them more difficult to climb. Especially easy to climb surfaces now have no special handholds, meaning that only creatures with the Acrobat class can climb them. Anything that already required the Acrobat class to climb is now the approximate roughness of a brick wall, which requires the Spider Climb ability from the Acrobat class.

-^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Raised Barrier:** As an action, you can pull up a solid column from the earth (or other solid surface) in any space within throwing range (0-10 meters). The target space rises to create a pillar 1 meter wide, 1 meter thick, and up to 3 meters tall which remains until the end of the current exploration turn. The pillar fills the target space entirely and acts as an obstacle like any solid object would. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Safe Raise:** The pillar is raised slowly and smoothly. Any creatures in the area of effect when the pillar is raised are moved to an adjacent space instead of being lifted by it (or if they prefer, they are lifted lightly and end up standing on top). Any creature that's on the pillar when it recedes is softly dropped back down to the ground. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**I Can See My House From Here:** Any creature that gets forcefully thrown off a pillar takes falling damage (1 point per 3 meters fallen, applied directly to Flesh). The walls of the pillar are rough but lack obvious handholds, meaning that a creature must have the Acrobat class in order to climb it. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Flexible Application:** Pillars can be made wider or taller by re-using the ability. Multiple pillars will merge seamlessly with each other and with any other adjacent walls or solid objects (but not creatures). You can also use this ability on vertical surfaces to create 1x1x3 blocks in order to create bridges or other structures (referee adjudicates exactly how strong these end up being).

The target space splits open and reveals a pit up to 3 meters deep which remains open until the end of the current exploration turn. If this ability is used in an area where the floor is less than 3 meters thick, it simply opens up a hole leading to whatever's underneath. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Safe Opening:** The pit opens slowly and smoothly. Any creatures in the area of effect when the pit was opened are moved to its edge instead of being dropped directly inside (or if they prefer, they are lowered softly to its bottom). Any creature that's inside the pit when it closes is harmlessly ejected. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Get In There:** Any creature that gets forcefully thrown in a pit takes falling damage (1 point per 3 meters fallen, applied directly to Flesh).

The two portions of landscape keep all interesting features and fixtures (such as a telephone pole, pit, pile of apples, prime parking spot, etc); the only difference is that what used to be //here// is now over //there// and vice versa. The effect lasts until the end of the current exploration turn before reverting. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Limits:** Both portions of landscape must occupy the same number of spaces, and cannot be any larger than a target space and all the spaces adjacent to it. Both portions of landscape must be within 10 meters of your position and no more than 5 meters apart from each other. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Harmless:** This ability cannot directly harm creatures. If a creature is totally within the area that is moved, they are moved along with it. If only partially, maybe they get moved and maybe not (referee's call, depends how much of their body is inside the area) but they don't get sliced in half or anything. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Earthworks:** Anything made of material tougher than stone (such as most metals) cannot be split or rearranged by this ability.
