They are also proficient with the hand axe, light hammer, throwing axe, battle axe, light flail, long sword, warhammer, greataxe, greatclub, short sword, and shortbow.

Spells: Geomancers are memorized spell casters. They must take 1 hour to commune with the elements to gain the power to cast their abilities every day. Geomancers can cast any spell they know using their daily spell slots. They gain a number of spells per day equal to those in the table above, with a number of extra spells depending on their wisdom modifier (see 'getting started' on the paizo prd website). They only know a select number of spells, given on the table below. At 3rd level, and every 2 levels thereafter, they can exchange one spell they know for a new spell for their list. Geomancers use their wisdom to cast spells, they must have a wisdom score of 10 + the spell level to be able to cast them. In addition, they gain more spells per day based on their wisdom score.

The difficulty class of Geomancer spells is 10 + the spell level + their wisdom modifier.

Domain: The geomancer chooses one cleric domain of one of the following: Air, Animal, Earth, Fire, Plant, Sun, Travel, Water, Weather. They add the bonus spells to their spell lists at the appropriate levels. They do not gain extra spell slots as clerics do, nor do they gain the domain powers.

Geomancy Terrain: Geomancers draw on the powers of the terrain to grant various benefits to some, and unleash devastation upon others. At first level, the Geomancer chooses one terrain, and gains the ability from the terrain chosen. They gain a new geomancy terrain for each chosen terrain at 4th, 7th, 10th, 13th, 16th, and 19th level. They can choose an additional terrain to draw powers from every three levels following first. They can use their geomancy abilites a number of times per day equal to half their level + their wisdom modifier. They can use these abilities if they are on the terrain, or within a number of miles equal to the geomancer’s level. Using a geomancy is a standard action unless specified otherwise, and have a DC equal to 10 + 1/2 their geomancer level + their wisdom modifier. 

The first terrain the geomancer chooses is the one they truly connect to. In addition to the geomancy ability, they gain a passive bonus inherent to the terrain.

While they reside in a terrain that is not their first, they may gain that terrain's passive abilities as well as use their geomancy abilities.

For geomancy abilities, see geomancy terrains, below.

Elemental companion: At second level, the geomancer gains an elemental companion. The elemental can be summoned through a one-minute ritual. Every level, the elemental can be reformed with different powers and abilities, including its elemental form. Through its elemental power, the geomancer can grant it’s minion additional attacks, abilities, and other modifications. If an elemental is banished or slain, it can be re-summoned once more. Elementals have all the normal elemental traits.

Terrain stride: At third level, the geomancer gains the ability to move across terrain of all the geomancy terrains chosen as if they were not difficult terrain (such as deep snow, or forest undergrowth) or slippery (such as slick ice).

Physical blasts deal 1d6 damage + the geomancer’s wisdom modifier, and are a ranged attack against AC. Energy blasts (such as electricity, cold, or negative energy) are 1d6 damage + ½ the geomancer’s wisdom modifier. The damage of these blasts increases by 1d6 every two levels following first. They can use their blast ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + their wisdom modifier.

Endurance: At 5^th level, the geomancer gains endurance as a bonus feat.

Terrain mastery: At 5^th level, geomancers gain a strong bond to their favoured terrains, gaining a +1 insight bonus to their initiative checks, attack rolls, damage rolls, climb checks, swim checks, and stealth checks when on these terrains. This bonus increases by 1 for every 5 levels following 5^th. While on the terrain, the ability associated with the terrain has its caster level and DC increased by 2.

Bonus feat: A geomancer gains a bonus feat to aid their ability to combat enemies at 6^th level, and every 6 levels thereafter.

Trackless step (Ex): When traveling on their favoured terrains, the geomancer leaves no tracks of any kind, unless they choose to do so.

Tremorsense: At 8^th level, the geomancer can read the ground beneath them, gaining tremorsense out to a distance of 10 ft. while on their geomancy terrains. This increases by 10 ft. at 11th, 14th, 17th, and 20th level.

Endure elements: At 9^th level, the geomancer gains endure elements as a constant spell-like ability on their geomancy terrains.

When the geomancer is in contact with the ground, he not only pinpoints the location of creatures within 10 ft. of him, but sees their entire body. As long as the geomancer and a creature are in contact with the ground, the geomancer can see them as if they had the blindsight ability out to 10 ft. This increases by 5 ft. at 16th, 18th, and 20th level.

Luck of the land: At 15^th level, the geomancer can, a number of times per day equal to their wisdom modifier, roll twice and take the higher result on any d20 roll. This can only be done if residing on one of their chosen geomancy terrains. This must be announced before the roll is made.

At 12^th level, panicked, stunned, and exhausted are added to the list. At 16^th level, paralyzed is added to the list. A successful will save halves the damage, and negates the condition.

7^th level:

Elysia’s boon: The geomancer grants a number of allies (up to their wisdom modifier) within 30 ft. a +4 morale bonus to fear, compulsion, and enchantment effects for a number of minutes equal to their level, and if under the effects of one, gain a new save with the bonus. If used on a lawful evil character, they take the same as a penalty.

10^th level:

Hell’s judgement: The ground erupts with fire from the hells, dealing 1d6 damage per level to the target. IF the character is chaotic, they are paralyzed for one round.

13^th level:

Nirvana’s mind: a number of targets equal to the geomancer’s wisdom modifier gain a +4 bonus to their AC as insight, +4 bonus to all will saves and concentration checks for a number of rounds equal to the geomancer’s modifier.

16^th level:

Abaddon’s Desire: The geomancer channels the power of abaddon, dominating all creatures chosen within 30 ft. as the spell dominate creature, with the geomancer’s DC, except they are dominated for a number of rounds equal to the geomancer’s level.

1^st level:

Overgrowth: Roots and vines grow around a number of 5 ft. squares equal to the geomancer’s level + their wisdom modifier. If the ground was not difficult terrain, it becomes such.

4^th level:

Torrent: The geomancer shoves an enemy with a torrent of water, initiating a bull rush attempt. The geomancer’s CMB is equal to their level + their wisdom modifier.

16^th level:

Tainted waters: moisture around a number of squares equal to the geomancer’s level + their wisdom modifier grow poisonous and wrought with disease.

Underground: (Cold, physical)

Geomancy passive ability: The geomancer gains darkvision 60 ft., and tremorsense out to 10 ft. When they gain the baseline tremorsense ability, the range is increased by 10 ft. At 14^th level, they gain the see in darkness ability.

1^st level:

Stone carver: Stones rise from the ground and slash at the target, dealing 1d8 damage + the geomancer’s level, and cause them to bleed for 1d6 damage per round until healed. A successful reflex save halves the damage and negates the bleed.

The targets are buried, and must make a strength check equal to 10 + the geomancer’s level to escape. They can also take a number of rounds equal to the geomancer’s wisdom modifier to carefully move rocks to escape. A successful reflex save halves the damage, and negates the buried condition.

16^th level: Grasping earth: The earth grabs a creature above, and begins pulling it into the earth. If the target fails the reflex save, they are considered grappled. The CMD of the earth is equal to 15+the geomancer’s level+their wisdom modifier. If the creature fails to escape the next check, they are pulled up to their neck. If they fail again, they are pulled under the ground and immediately begin suffocating, dropping to -1 hit points. Every round, they continue to bleed until death.

This lasts 10 minutes per level of the geomancer, and takes 1 minute of focus to cast.

13^th level:

Collapse: If the geomancer is within 100 ft. of a building, they can roll an attack roll to shake the foundation, dealing 1d6 damage per level to the structure. If they roll a 20, the building instantly collapses, injuring all within.

10^th level:

Tidal wave: The geomancer releases a mighty tidal wave in a 25 ft. wide, 100 ft. long line in front of them. This wave deals 1d6 damage per level as magic and bludgeoning, and initiates a bull rush attempt on everyone struck. The CMB of this attempt is the geomancer’s level + their wisdom modifier + 5.

Elemental

Class Level: This is the character's geomancer level. The geomancer's class levels stack with levels of any other classes that are entitled to an elemental companion for the purpose of determining the companion's statistics.

HD: This is the total number of eight-sided (d8) Hit Dice the elemental companion possesses, each of which gains a Constitution modifier, as normal.

BAB: This is the elemental companion's base attack bonus. An elemental companion's base attack bonus is the same as that of a geomancer of a level equal to the animal's HD. Elemental companions do not gain additional attacks using their natural weapons for a high base attack bonus.

Fort/Ref/Will: These are the elemental companion's base saving throw bonuses. An elemental companion has good Fortitude and Reflex saves.

Skills: This lists the animal's total skill ranks. Elemental companions can assign skill ranks to any skill listed under Animal Skills. If an elemental companion increases its Intelligence to 10 or higher, it gains bonus skill ranks as normal. Elemental companions with an Intelligence of 3 or higher can purchase ranks in any skill. An elemental companion cannot have more ranks in a skill than it has Hit Dice.

Feats: This is the total number of feats possessed by an elemental companion. Elemental companions should select their feats from those listed under Animal Feats. Elemental companions can select other feats, although they are unable to utilize some feats (such as Martial Weapon Proficiency). Note that elemental companions cannot select a feat with a requirement of base attack bonus +1 until they gain their second feat at 3 Hit Dice.

Natural Armor Bonus: The number noted here is an improvement to the elemental companion's existing natural armor bonus.

Str/Dex Bonus: Add this modifier to the elemental companion's Strength and Dexterity scores.

Special: This includes a number of abilities gained by elemental companions as they increase in power. Each of these bonuses is described below.

Elemental points (Ex): The elemental gains elemental points, which the geomancer can use on evolutions to grant their elemental additional abilities and attacks.

Link (Ex): A geomancer can handle her elemental companion as a free action, or push it as a move action, even if she doesn't have any ranks in the Handle Animal skill. The geomancer gains a +4 circumstance bonus on all wild empathy checks and Handle Animal checks made regarding an elemental companion.

Share Spells (Ex): The geomancer may cast a spell with a target of “You” on her elemental companion (as a spell with a range of touch) instead of on herself. A geomancer may cast spells on her elemental companion even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the companion's type (animal). Spells cast in this way must come from a class that grants an elemental companion. This ability does not allow the animal to share abilities that are not spells, even if they function like spells.

Ability Score Increase (Ex): The elemental companion adds +1 to one of its ability scores.

Energy attacks (Su): The elemental gains additional damage to their attacks equal to their energy type. This damage deals 1d4 damage at 4^th level. At 8^th level it increases to 1d6, at 12^th, 1d8, 16^th, 2d6, and 3d6 at 20^th level. For each increase, an earth elemental’s attacks gain an additional size category to their slam damage.

Devotion (Ex): An elemental companion gains a +4 morale bonus on Will saves against enchantment spells and effects.

Multiattack: An elemental companion gains Multiattack as a bonus feat if it has three or more natural attacks and does not already have that feat. If it does not have the requisite three or more natural attacks, the elemental companion instead gains a second attack with one of its natural weapons, albeit at a –5 penalty.

Earth elementals may choose between physical and acid. Once chosen, this can only be altered each time the geomancer levels.

Water elemental eidolons gain the drench and vortex abilities. The vortex ability works as the air elemental eidolon’s whirlwind ability (except as noted in the vortex ability’s description).

Evolutions

Each elemental receives a number of elemental points that can be spent to give the elemental new abilities, powers, and other upgrades. These abilities, called evolutions, can be changed whenever the geomancer gains a new level, but they are otherwise set. Some evolutions require that the elemental have a specific base form or the geomancer be of a specific level before they can be chosen. A number of evolutions grant the elemental additional natural attacks. Natural attacks listed as primary are made using the elemental's full base attack bonus and add the elemental's Strength modifier on damage rolls. Natural attacks listed as secondary are made using the elemental's base attack bonus – 5 and add 1/2 the elemental's Strength modifier on damage rolls (if positive). If the elemental only has a single natural attack, the attack is made using its full base attack bonus and it adds 1-1/2 times its Strength modifier on damage rolls made with that attack, regardless of the attack's type.

Evolutions are grouped by their cost in elemental points. Elemental points cannot be saved. All of the points must be spent whenever the geomancer gains a level. Unless otherwise noted, each evolution can only be selected once.

1-Point Evolutions

The following evolutions cost 1 point from the elemental's evolution pool.

Bite (Ex): An elemental's manifests a physical maw of razor-sharp teeth, giving it a bite attack. This attack is a primary attack. The bite deals 1d6 points of damage (1d8 if Large, 2d6 if Huge). If the elemental already has a bite attack, this evolution allows it to deal 1-1/2 times its Strength modifier on damage rolls made with its bite.

Claws (Ex): An elemental manifests a pair of vicious claws at the end of its limbs, giving it two claw attacks. These attacks are primary attacks. The claws deal 1d4 points of damage (1d6 if Large, 1d8 if Huge). The elemental must have the limbs evolution to take this evolution. This evolution can only be applied to the limbs (legs) evolution once This evolution can be selected more than once, but the elemental must possess an equal number of the limbs evolution.

Climb (Ex): An elemental becomes a skilled climber, gaining a climb speed equal to its base speed. This evolution can be selected more than once. Each additional time it is selected, increase the elemental's climb speed by 20 feet.

Improved Damage (Ex): One of the elemental's natural attacks is particularly deadly. Select one natural attack form and increase the damage die type by one step. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time an elemental selects this evolution, it applies to a different natural attack.

Improved Natural Armor (Ex): An elemental grows its defenses, gathering fierce winds, water, or stone, giving it a +2 bonus to its natural armor. This evolution can be taken once for every five levels the geomancer possesses. Earth elementals can take these in addition to the bonus gained at first level. IF the geomancer’s elemental is earth, they count as taking this evolution at first level. However, they may take this evolution once for every four levels they possess, allowing them to take this evolution at 8^th level.

Magic Attacks (Su): an elemental is infused with magic, allowing it to treat all of its natural attacks as if they were magic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. If the geomancer is 10th level or higher, all of the elemental's weapons are treated as the alignment of the elemental for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Mount (Ex): an elemental is properly skilled and formed to serve as a combat-trained mount, and its energy is not harmful to the geomancer. The elemental must be at least one size category larger than its rider.

Pincers (Ex): The elemental manifests limbs in the form of large pincers at the end of one pair of its limbs, giving it two pincer attacks. These attacks are secondary attacks. The pincers deal 1d6 points of damage (1d8 if Large, 2d6 if Huge). Elementals with the grab evolution linked to pincers gain a +2 bonus on CMB checks made to grapple. The elemental must have the limbs (arms) evolution to take this evolution. Alternatively, the elemental can replace the claws from its base form with pincers (this still costs 1 elemental point). This evolution can be selected more than once, but the elemental must possess an equal number of the limbs evolution.

Pounce (Ex): an elemental gains quick reflexes, allowing it to make a full attack after a charge. This evolution is only available to elementals of the quadruped base form.

Pull (Ex): an elemental gains the ability to pull creatures closer with a successful attack. Select one type of natural attack. Whenever the elemental makes a successful attack of the selected type, it can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the target of the attack is pulled 5 feet closer to the elemental. This ability only works on creatures of a size equal to or smaller than the elemental. Creatures pulled in this way do not provoke attacks of opportunity. The elemental must have a reach of 10 feet or more to select this evolution. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time an elemental selects this evolution, it applies to a different natural attack.

Push (Ex): an elemental gains the ability to push creatures away with a successful attack. Select one type of natural attack. Whenever the elemental makes a successful attack of the selected type, it can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the target of the attack is pushed 5 feet directly away from the elemental. This ability only works on creatures of a size equal to or smaller than the elemental. Creatures pushed in this way do not provoke attacks of opportunity. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time an elemental selects this evolution, it applies to a different natural attack.

Reach (Ex): One of an elemental's attacks is capable of striking at foes at a distance. Pick one attack. The elemental's reach with that attack increases by 5 feet.

Resistance (Ex): an elemental's form takes on a resiliency to one particular energy type, which is usually reflected in its physical body (ashen hide for fire, icy breath for cold, and so on). Pick one energy type (acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic). The elemental gains resist 5 against that energy type. This resistance increases by 5 for every 5 levels the geomancer possesses, to a maximum of 15 at 10th level. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time an elemental selects this evolution, it applies to a different energy type.

Skilled (Ex): an elemental becomes especially adept at a specific skill, gaining a +8 racial bonus on that skill. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time an elemental selects this evolution, it applies to a different skill.

Slam (Ex): an elemental can deliver an additional devastating slam attack. This attack is a primary attack. The slam deals 1d8 points of damage (2d6 if Large, 2d8 if Huge). The elemental must have the limbs (arms) evolution to take this evolution. Alternatively, the elemental can replace the claws from its base form with this slam attack (this still costs 1 elemental point). This evolution can be selected more than once, but the elemental must possess an equal number of the limbs evolution.

Swim (Ex): an elemental gains webbed hands, feet, or powerful flippers, giving it a swim speed equal to its base speed. This evolution does not give the elemental the ability to breathe underwater. This evolution can be selected more than once. Each additional time it is selected, increase the elemental's swim speed by 20 feet.

Tentacle (Ex): an elemental possesses a long, energy-coated tentacle, granting it a tentacle attack. This attack is a secondary attack. The tentacle attack deals 1d4 points of damage (1d6 if Large, 1d8 if Huge). This evolution can be selected more than once.

2-Point Evolutions

The following evolutions cost 2 points from the elemental's evolution pool.

Ability Increase (Ex): an elemental grows larger muscles, gains faster reflexes, achieves greater intelligence, or acquires another increase to one of its abilities. Increase one of the elemental's ability scores by +2. This evolution can be selected more than once. It can only be applied once to an individual ability score, plus 1 additional time for every 6 levels the geomancer possesses.

Ability damage (Su): an elemental steals the power of those they strike, dealing 1d2 ability damage to a single ability score with one attack they choose. This ability damage is negated by a fortitude save (geomancer’s DC). Once the ability score is chosen, it cannot be changed. Constitution damage is considered 3 evolution points. If this evolution is chosen again, the elemental deals 1d4 damage.

Constrict (Ex): an elemental empowers its grip, allowing it to crush those it grapples. Whenever the elemental successfully grapples a foe using the grab evolution, it deals additional damage equal to the amount of damage dealt by the attack used by the grab evolution.

Gore (Ex): an elemental grows a number of horns on its head, giving it a gore attack. This attack is a primary attack. The gore deals 1d6 points of damage (1d8 if Large, 2d6 if Huge).

Grab (Ex): an elemental becomes adept at grappling foes, gaining the grab ability. Pick bite, claw, pincers, slam, tail slap, or tentacle attacks. Whenever the elemental makes a successful attack of the selected type, it can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the elemental grapples the target. This ability only works on creatures of a size one category smaller than the elemental or smaller. Elementals with this evolution receive a +4 bonus on CMB checks made to grapple.

Immunity (Su): an elemental's body becomes extremely resilient to one energy type, gaining immunity to that type. Pick one energy type: acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic. The elemental gains immunity to that energy type. This evolution can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack. Each time it applies to a different energy type. The geomancer must be at least 7th level before selecting this evolution.

Limbs (Ex): an elemental grows an additional pair of limbs. These limbs can take one of two forms. They can be made into legs, complete with feet. Each pair of legs increases the elemental's base speed by 10 feet. Alternatively, they can be made into arms, complete with hands. The elemental does not gain any additional natural attacks for an additional pair of arms, but it can take other evolutions that add additional attacks (such as claws or a slam). Arms that have hands can be used to wield weapons, if the elemental is proficient. This evolution can be selected more than once.

Poison (Ex): an elemental secretes toxic venom, gaining a poison attack. Pick one bite or sting attack. Whenever the selected attack hits, the target is poisoned. Elemental poison—type poison (injury); save Fort negates; frequency 1/round for 4 rounds; effect 1d4 Str damage; cure 1 save. The save DC is equal to 10 + 1/2 the elemental's HD + the elemental's Constitution modifier. For 2 additional elemental points, this poison deals Constitution damage instead. This poison can be used no more than once per round. The geomancer must be at least 7th level before selecting this evolution.

Rake (Ex): an elemental grows dangerous claws on its feet, allowing it to make 2 rake attacks on foes it is grappling. These attacks are primary attacks. The elemental receives these additional attacks each time it succeeds on a grapple check against the target. These rake attacks deal 1d4 points of damage (1d6 if Large, 1d8 if Huge). This evolution is only available to elementals of the quadruped base form. This evolution counts as one natural attack toward te elemental's maximum. The geomancer must be at least 4th level before selecting this evolution.

Rend (Ex): an elemental learns to rip and tear the flesh of those it attacks with its claws, gaining the rend ability. Whenever the elemental makes two successful claw attacks against the same target in 1 round, its claws latch onto the flesh and deal extra damage. This damage is equal to the damage dealt by one claw attack plus 1-1/2 times the elemental's Strength modifier. The elemental must possess the claws evolution to select this evolution. The geomancer must be at least 6th level before selecting this evolution.

Trample (Ex): an elemental gains the ability to crush its foes underfoot, gaining the trample ability. As a full-round action, the elemental can overrun any creature that is at least one size smaller than itself. This works like the overrun combat maneuver, but the elemental does not need to make a check, it merely has to move over opponents in its path. The creatures take 1d6 points of damage (1d8 if Large, 2d6 if Huge), plus 1-1/2 times the elemental's Strength modifier. Targets of the trample can make attacks of opportunity at a –4 penalty. If a target forgoes the attack of opportunity, it can make a Reflex save for half damage. The DC of this save is 10 + 1/2 the elemental's HD + the elemental's Strength modifier. A trampling elemental can only deal trampling damage to a creature once per round. This evolution is only available to elementals of the biped or quadruped base forms.

Tremorsense (Ex): an elemental becomes attuned to vibrations in the ground, gaining tremorsense out to a range of 30 feet. This works like the blindsense evolution, but only if both the elemental and the creature to be pinpointed are in contact with the ground. The geomancer must be at least 7th level before selecting this evolution.

Trip (Ex): an elemental becomes adept at knocking foes to the ground with its bite, granting it a trip attack. Whenever the elemental makes a successful bite attack of the selected type, it can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the target is knocked prone. If the check fails, the elemental is not tripped in return. This ability only works on creatures of a size equal to or smaller than the elemental. The elemental must possess the bite evolution to select this evolution.

Weapon Training (Ex): an elemental learns to use a weapon, gaining Simple Weapon Proficiency as a bonus feat. If 2 additional elemental points are spent, it gains proficiency with all martial weapons as well.

3-Point Evolutions

The following evolutions cost 3 points from the elemental's evolution pool.

Flight (Su): The elemental gains a supernatural fly speed equal to its base speed. The elemental's maneuverability depends on it size. Medium or smaller elementals have perfect maneuverability. Large elementals have good maneuverability, while Huge elementals have average maneuverability. The elemental's fly speed can be increased by spending additional elemental points, gaining a 20-foot increase to fly speed for each additional point spent. The geomancer must be at least 8th level before selecting this evolution.

Ability drain (Su): As the ability damage evolution, but as drain.

Blindsense (Ex): an elemental's senses become incredibly acute, giving it blindsense out to a range of 30 feet. This ability allows the elemental to pinpoint the location of creatures that it cannot see without having to make a Perception check, but such creatures still have total concealment from the elemental. Visibility still affects the elemental's movement and it is still denied its Dexterity bonus to Armor Class against attacks from creatures it cannot see. The geomancer must be at least 9th level before selecting this evolution.

Damage Reduction (Su): an elemental's body becomes resistant to harm, granting it damage reduction. Choose one alignment: chaotic, evil, good, or lawful. The elemental gains DR 5 that can be bypassed by weapons that possess the chosen alignment. The alignment must be opposite to one of the alignments possessed by the elemental. At 12th level, this protection can be increased to DR 10 by spending 2 additional elemental points. The geomancer must be at least 9th level before selecting this evolution.

Frightful Presence (Ex): an elemental becomes unsettling to its foes, gaining the frightful presence ability. The elemental can activate this ability as part of an offensive action, such as a charge or attack. Opponents within 30 feet of the elemental must make a Will save or become shaken for 3d6 rounds. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the elemental's HD + the elemental's Charisma modifier. If the elemental has at least 4 more Hit Dice than an opponent, that opponent becomes frightened instead. Foes with more HD than the elemental are immune to this effect. The geomancer must be at least 11th level before selecting this evolution.

Web (Ex): an elemental gains the ability to use the spell web up to 8 times per day, with the geomancer’s DC. The geomancer must be at least 7th level before selecting this evolution.

4-Point Evolutions

The following evolutions cost 4 points from the elemental's evolution pool.

Blindsight (Ex): an elemental's senses sharpen even further, granting it blindsight out to a range of 30 feet. The elemental can maneuver and attack as normal, ignoring darkness, invisibility, and most forms of concealment as long as it has line of effect to the target. The elemental must possess the blindsense evolution to take this evolution. The geomancer must be at least 11th level before selecting this evolution.

Fast Healing (Su): an elemental's body gains the ability to heal wounds very quickly, giving it fast healing 1. The elemental heals 1 point of damage each round, just like natural healing. Fast healing does not restore hit points lost due to starvation, thirst, or suffocation, nor does it allow the elemental to regrow lost body parts (or to reattach severed parts). Fast healing functions as long as the elemental is alive. This fast healing does not function when the elemental is not on the same plane as its geomancer. This healing can be increased by 1 per round for every 2 additional elemental points spent (maximum 5). The geomancer must be at least 11th level before selecting this evolution.

Large (Ex): an elemental grows in size, becoming Large. The elemental gains a +8 bonus to Strength, a +4 bonus to Constitution, and a +2 bonus to its natural armor. It takes a –2 penalty to its Dexterity. This size change also gives the creature a –1 size penalty to its AC and on attack rolls, a +1 bonus to its CMB and CMD, a –2 penalty on Fly skill checks, and a –4 penalty on Stealth skill checks. If the elemental has the biped base form, it also gains 10-foot reach. Any reach evolutions the elemental possesses are added to this total. The elemental must be Medium to take this evolution. The geomancer must be at least 8th level before selecting this evolution.

The ability increase evolution costs twice as much (4 elemental points) when adding to the Strength or Constitution scores of a Large elemental.

Spell Resistance (Ex): an elemental is protected against magic, gaining spell resistance. The elemental's spell resistance is equal to 11 + the geomancer's level. This spell resistance does not apply to spells cast by the geomancer. The geomancer must be at least 9th level before selecting this evolution.
