View source for SRD:Greater Earth Elemental

===Combat===
Though an earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] moves [[SRD:Slow|slow]]ly, it is a relentless opponent. It can travel though solid ground or stone as easily as humans walk on the earth’s surface. It cannot swim, however, and must either walk around a body of water or go through the ground under it. An earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] can move along the bottom of a body of water but prefers not to.

'''Earth Mastery ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' An earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] gains a +1 bonus on attack and [[SRD:Attack Damage|damage rolls]] if both it and its foe are touching the ground. If an opponent is airborne or waterborne, the [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] takes a –4 penalty on attack and [[SRD:Attack Damage|damage rolls]]. (These modifiers are not included in the statistics block.)

'''Push ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' An earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] can start a bull rush maneuver without provoking an [[SRD:Attacks of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]]. The combat modifiers given in Earth Mastery, above, also apply to the [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]]’s opposed [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] checks.

'''Earth Glide ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' An earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] can glide through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth except metal as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no tunnel or hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A ''[[SRD:Move Earth|move earth]]'' spell cast on an area containing a burrowing earth [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] flings the [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] back 30 feet, stunning the creature for 1 [[SRD:Round|round]] unless it succeeds on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 15 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]].
