Earth, Rock, or Soil (Tagalog: lupa; Japanese: 土 "tsuchi"; Maori: oneone ; Emoji: 🪨) is an element that is extremely abundant in nature and it is useless until used against electricity and ice. Rock is one of the four classical elements along with fire, water, air, and aether in ancient Greek philosophy and science. Plato (427–347 BCE) believed the elements were geometric forms (the platonic solids) and he assigned the cube to the element of earth in his dialogue Timaeus. Aristotle (384–322 BCE) believed earth was the heaviest element, and his theory of natural place suggested that any earth–laden substances, would fall quickly, straight down, towards the center of the cosmos., the Platonic solid associated with water is the icosahedron which is formed from twenty equilateral triangles.
Geokinesis is the superpower to control and manipulate earth, rocks, soil, sand, crystals, and minerals using one’s mind or energy.
Geokinesis comes from Greek:
“Geo” = Earth
“Kinesis” = Movement or control
Literally means “control of earth.”
Someone who wields this ability is called a Geokinetic or Earthbender (in some fantasy worlds).

Earth elemental creatures stand out for their great defense to physical attacks; however, this type is tied with the Grass type as having the most weaknesses, are afraid of water, with five, and creatures of this type are not very fast. Also, some Earth-type moves don't have great accuracy, and have powers and abilities related to control of ground and earth. They have powerful moves such as Earthquake and Fissure, but only one element has a 50% chance of being immune to them because something that is flying doesn't touch ground, therefore, they don't get affected by earthquakes and Earth shifts or were hunted with the use of stones; especially since throwing a stone at a bird can kill it, hence the term "You can kill two birds with one stone".
Geokinesis, like other elemental powers, is fictional — there’s no evidence that humans can mentally move or manipulate rock or earth.
However, it symbolizes human control over nature and the balance between creation and destruction in fantasy and mythology.
In geology, a rock (or stone) is any naturally occurring solid mass or aggregate of minerals or mineraloid matter. It is categorized by the minerals included, its chemical composition, and the way in which it is formed. Rocks form the Earth's outer solid layer, the crust, and most of its interior, except for the liquid outer core and pockets of magma in the asthenosphere. The study of rocks involves multiple subdisciplines of geology, including petrology and mineralogy. It may be limited to rocks found on Earth, or it may include planetary geology that studies the rocks of other celestial objects.
Rocks are usually grouped into three main groups: igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed when magma cools in the Earth's crust, or lava cools on the ground surface or the seabed. Sedimentary rocks are formed by diagenesis and lithification of sediments, which in turn are formed by the weathering, transport, and deposition of existing rocks. Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks are subjected to such high pressures and temperatures that they are transformed without significant melting.
Humanity has made use of rocks since the time the earliest humans lived. This early period, called the Stone Age, saw the development of many stone tools. Stone was then used as a major component in the construction of buildings and early infrastructure. Mining developed to extract rocks from the Earth and obtain the minerals within them, including metals. Modern technology has allowed the development of new human-made rocks and rock-like substances, such as concrete.
Their fossils preserve enough genetic material to be worked with to bring them back to life, but it can be known that the Earth-type was very abundant. However, they are normally found in caves or rocky terrains, with the exceptions of some dual typed species to species. One bad thing about them is that they can't normally come off the ground. Earth elementals are biological organisms covered with armor made out of minerals. However, there are other creatures that resemble living rock like Okpe and Golem.
A word of caution: Some survivors or creatures have the ability to generate, shape, and control earth and "earthen" materials. This includes most solid things, notably all minerals and mineral compositions regardless of their state (mountain, boulder, sand, dust), dirt, soil, etc. Brick and plants can both be controlled by the user. Users with more advanced skills can work with metals like gemstones, iron, copper, and titanium. Soil, also commonly referred to as earth, is a mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, water, and organisms that together support the life of plants and soil organisms. Some scientific definitions distinguish dirt from soil by restricting the former term specifically to displaced soil.
This power can be used offensively to pull massive boulders out of the ground and hurl them at the enemy at rapid speed, impale the adversary with innumerable spikes from the soil, and in some situations, create enormous golems or other earthen monsters and utilize them in battle.
An omnidirectional wave of boulders or stone can be formed around the user to protect them from all attacks, and one can wrap themselves in earthen armor as defensive abilities. Additional applications of this capability include the ability to fly by standing on a piece of levitating earth, move more quickly by skating on it, and improve one's senses by sensing the ground.
Beings or survivors can construct, shape, and work with crystals and crystalline materials because the earth element regulates them. Crystals are homogenous solids made of repeating, three-dimensional patterns of atoms, ions, or molecules, and they have fixed distances between their component parts. Sand, a naturally occurring loose, fragmented/granular sedimentary material comprising of finely divided rock and mineral particles ranging in diameter from 0.0625 mm (or 116 mm) to 2 mm, can also be produced, shaped, and manipulated as an earth-type rule. According to the earth element laws, users are able to make, shape, and manipulate various kinds of jewelry, as well as the crystals, stones, and metals contained within it. They can also combine and mold it as needed and move it with telekinesis.
Because glass is an amorphous (non-crystalline) solid that exhibits a glass transition—a reversible transition in amorphous materials (or in amorphous regions within semicrystalline materials) from a hard and relatively brittle state into a molten or rubber-like state—advanced creatures or survivors can create, shape, and manipulate glass as the earth element rules, warning.
A member of a large range of chemicals generated when one or more hydrogen atoms of an acid have been replaced by a metal, salt (such as rock salt, iodine salt, sea salt, and table salt) is one of the substances that creatures or survivors can make, shape, and manipulate while the earth element governs. At normal temperatures, they are typically crystalline and dissolve in water to produce positive and negative ions.
Users of the earth element are totally immune to both direct and indirect effects of the element from birth. The user may have difficulty moving in mud, sludge, or quicksand; they might receive a blow from a flying boulder and still be immobile. Both rock slides and earthquakes, crystals, glass, ores, and salt won't cause the users' movement or damage to be altered.
Earth represents stability, strength, endurance, and groundedness. Geokinesis symbolizes:
⌛ Discipline and resilience
⛰️ Connection to nature and the physical world
💪 Strength through patience and balance
In stories, geokinetic characters are often steady, loyal, and protective, but can also be stubborn or unyielding — reflecting the nature of stone and soil itself.
Weapons and armor can be imbued with the element of earth. When an earth weapon strikes, it releases a pack of sand, some pebbles, or grains of minerals into the wound, which can be extremely effective against certain creatures.

Depending on their mastery, geokinetic users can:
Manipulate Ground and Rocks: Move, reshape, or break apart soil, stone, and minerals.
Create Weapons or Armor: Form rock spears, shields, or armor from the ground.
Cause Earthquakes or Tremors: Shake the ground or split the earth.
Control Metal or Lava (Advanced):
Ferrokinesis → control of metals.
Magma/Lava Manipulation → summon molten rock from beneath the earth.
Sense Vibrations (Seismic Sense): Detect movement or footsteps through the ground, like a bat using sonar.
Form Terrains: Raise walls, create caves, or reshape landscapes in battle.

Sand Healing - The creature gradually recovers HP in sandstorm.
Land Tag - Prevents the foe from fleeing if it is in soil or rocky terrain.
Sand Aura - Summons a sandstorm from its aura.
Fire🔥- because rocks can keep fire at bay, and the fire disappears easily if rocks are thrown on it. Additionally, rocks are not flammable.
Electric⚡ - because in the true nonfiction life, the ground is a natural sink of electrons, and electrical appliances don't work when filled with dirt.
Sound🎵 - type because in the true nonfiction life, the rock and solid can bouncing the soundwaves causing echoes and made it muted while covered by rocks.
Ice❄️ - because stones and rocks can shatter ice with ease.
Light🔆 - because some rocks and crystals absorbs light.
Rock🪨 - They weakened themselves because a sandstorm can erode rocks and an earthquake can break rocks.
Water🌊 - because water can crave rocks and now eroded.
Rock🪨 - They weakened themselves because a sandstorm can erode rocks and an earthquake can break rocks.
Electric⚡ - because water is a good conductor of electricity and since electricity is a form of energy and water is a chemical compound, electricity can split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen; conducting the electricity, they can get electrocuted.
Leaf🌿 - because nature-related that absorb water for their own survival.
Ice❄️ - in reference of erosion. Also because earth becomes weak when it's wet or frozen.
Metal🔩 - because steel is harder than stone and tools made out of steel are made to break rocks.
Sound🎵 - because when a sound wave reflects off a surface of water below.
Poison🤢 - because rocks are non-organic and are thus unaffected by poisons
Sound🎵 - because in the true nonfiction life, the rock can bounce of causing echo, this earth was inorganic.
Electric⚡ - because in the true existent nonfiction life, the ground is a natural sink of electrons, and electrical appliances don't work when filled with soil and rock.
Light🔆 - because some rocks and crystals absorbs light.
