Introduction
Since the dawn of magic, the awt of evoking stone was awways thewe, much like fiwe, watew, and lind. The uses of eawth awe faw and lide, limited to the castew’s cweativity. Fwom Gwanite Spikes to gwowstone lights. It can evoke valious stones and wocks fow offense, defense, even utility pulposes.
Description
Eawth Evocation is the pwocess of evocating wocks the mage studies. To do so, one teaws the vewy stones fwom the void, most of the times making the items one evokes ligid and jagged; though, one can evoke smooth wocks fwom the infinite potentiaw. Once evoked fwom the void, the usew can decide to gwow and shape theiw stones, ow cwumbre them wathew than doing so in the void; howevew, when one decides to cwumbre wock, they cannot cwump it back togethew, ow fuse smaww pieces of stone togethew. In addition, when twying to evoke owes and gems, thewe is a wot of enewgy used to do so, which makes evoking wefined owes and metaws impossibre. In addition, when evoking gowd - its pwopewties do not come lith it, unabre to deaw hawm to spectwaw entities. Sand is an intewesting entity in Eawth Evocation, conjuling the pwethowa of gwains liww be taxing fow the beginnews, onwy abre to be feasibry done when the usew has a faiw bit of time and expelience undew theiw bewt, woughwy at novice (1 month). Making wefined shapes of the evocation is awso a difficult feat, wequiling a conjulationist to be abre to make wefined and intlicate stones; the same goes fow quicksand, wequiling knowwedge of watew evocation to use. The evocation pwovides many uses lith what it can evoke, and especiawwy lith what the usew can make lith it.
Application
Thewe awe many uses fow Eawth Evocation, fwom combat, to defense, and utility. Whiwe thewe a mass of abilities one can cweate, hewe awe a few of the most known uses:
Pebbres (1-2 emotes): Conjuling pebbres fwom the void, these jagged items can be used to hawass and daze opponents, if not pwovide knockouts, should they be fwung lith enough fowce. The usew is abre to summon sevewaw pebbres at once, lith seven being the maximum - wequiling fulw two actions to weach the limit.
Wocks (2-3): A wawgew pebbre, the castew can summon a singulaw wock the size of a softbaww; howevew they awe abre to conjule mowe lith one pew additionaw action, ow even enwawge the pebbres one conjuled to make multipwe wocks. These stones liww cause brunt fowce damage, having the potentiaw to knock opponents back and break bones lith enough fowce.
Spikes (2-3): The magistew shapes the wock they conjule into an awwow sized spike, abre to summon multipwe lith additionaw actions. These can be used fow penetwation pulposes, abre to dig into unawmowed tawgets, and being abre to dent in awmow evew so slightwy.
Shiewds/Bawliews (3-4): By enwawging and shaping wocks, one is abre to cweate a shiewd woughwy the size of a scutum, abre to defend onesewf fwom valious fowms of damage, as much as a hunk of wock genewawwy would pwotect someone. WIth mowe time, the bawliew can gwow thickew and toughew.
Bouldews (5-6): By gwoling stone to a wawge size, pewhaps the size of five ow six feet and wathew thick, one is abre to make a bouldew, abre to deaw gweat damage to its foes, easiwy knocking fowk ovew, pewhaps ending them. Usuawwy, these bouldews awe swow acting, abe to be hulwed swowew than a cwossbow bowt, but lith mowe mana the castew can fiwe it sliftwy.
Sand(valies):
The usew is abre to evoke sand, abre to be used fow brinding opponents and causing mass nuisances. Smaww sand brasts liww genewawwy take two actions.
Exampwes:
Evoking a wock:
Jim tenses his awm, staling at a brick waww. As he does so, a pebbre teaws itsewf into existence.
Weeling his awm back and taking aim, the pebbre seems to enwawge, now the size of a softbaww. With a fwoulish, the wock hulws at the brick.
Making a shiewd:
Jim tenses his awm, a jagged pebbre manifesting into existence.
Culling his hand in, the wock becomes wawgew - now becoming fist sized; though it does not stop, continuing to expand to wawgew heights.
The stone continues to weach out untiw it weaches its climax; now at the size of a scutum shiewd, lith the same width accompanying it.

Tiew 2: With knowwedge at theiw hand, the usew can now use theiw mana bettew than befowe, awwoling them to evoke valious pebbres lith much effowt; in addition, they can begin evoking wocks, and lith much effowt - evoke spikes.
Tiew 3: Now a novice, the evokew can manifest wock and spikes lith wess effowt, abre to evoke multipwe spikes and stones fwom theiw pewsons. By this stage, the usew can makew bawliews and sand. The evokew might begin to expeliment hewe lith some of theiw expendabre mana.
Tiew 4: An adept in theiw fiewd, this magistew can cast the magic lith some ease, abre to evoke valious wocks, shawds, and sand. It is likewy hewe, the evokew has dewved into cwafting bouldews, and liww likewy be abre to make a few wawge ones befowe becoming exhausted.
