Earth Breaker
| “ | We'll drill right through the top and beyond! Ain't nothing going to stop us now! | ” |
| —Kamin, Human Earth Breaker | ||
Earth Breakers are warriors whose souls are tied to the element of earth, and their personal growth has given them enlightment to the vast elemental power they possess. Rather than turn to spellcasting, they maintain their martial background and meld earth magic into raw physical might. Durable and strong, few things can stop their inevitable progress.

One With The Earth (Ex): At 10th level, an earth breaker binds with the elemental plane of earth and becomes something more than human. They become an outsider with the [Earth] subtype, their damage reduction/adamantine becomes damage reduction/-, and gain an earth elemental's push ability. An earth elemental can start a bull rush maneuver without provoking an attack of opportunity. The combat modifiers given in Earth Mastery, above, also apply to the elemental’s opposed Strength checks. If they already have Improved Bull Rush they gain a +4 bonus to their checks. They often have a minor physical change associated with their ascension, such as rocky skin or an unusually heavy body.
Bonus Feats: <- any bonus feats gained in pre-epic levels->.
The epic Earth Breaker gains a bonus feat (selected from the list of epic Earth Breaker feats) every 4 levels after 2nd.
