Earth mephits come from the Elemental Plane of Earth.

An earth mephit is about 4 feet tall and weighs about 80 pounds.

Earth mephits speak Common and Terran.

Combat

Breath Weapon (Su): 15-foot cone of rock shards and pebbles, damage 1d8, Reflex DC 13 half. The save DC is Constitution-based and includes a +1 racial bonus.

Spell-Like Abilities: 1/day—soften earth and stone. Caster level 6th.

Change Size (Sp): Once per hour, an earth mephit can magically change its size. This works just like an enlarge person spell, except that the power works only on the earth mephit. This is the equivalent of a 2nd-level spell.

Summon Mephit (Sp): Once per day, a mephit can attempt to summon another mephit of the same variety, much as though casting a summon monster spell, but with only a 25% chance of success. Roll d%: On a failure, no creature answers the summons that day. A mephit that has just been summoned cannot use its own summon ability for 1 hour. This ability is the equivalent of a 2nd-level spell.

Fast Healing (Ex): An earth mephit heals only if it is underground or buried up to its waist in earth.
