6'6, and two hundred and fifty pounds, most of it muscle, a real wall of a man. An imposing sight, but for his apparently placid, cheerful nature. He's got short brown hair with reddish highlights, and a broad, cheery, rugged face, that could be described as moderately handsome. He's not ugly, but not that great to look at either, really. But he's not quite plain... hes got a pair of bright, bright green eyes that really pull you in, really get your attention, that keep him from being plain.
He's built... wide. Tall, and strong, with broad shoulders and plentiful muscle. Almost wall-like, really... or perhaps more like a mountain. Wearing plain, simple clothes and a pair of durable, rugged boots, he clearly prefers comfort and functionality to expense, though it should be noted that he seems to have plenty of money. A matter of personal preference, then, rather than expense? Though he does seem to make a concession, that being a pair of expensive, high quality protective goggles.
In any case. He's been seen in many places, but no one knows where he lives. Apparently, he's on vacation, though where he's taking a vacation from is anyone's guess. No one really asks!
If they did, though... things might be clearer.
You see, Erek is a professional geomancer. A professional soldier, and a master of manipulating the earth, in and out of battle. Specifically, he is, or perhaps was, part of a small corp of battle casters who worked in unison. He's got plenty of practice using his talents with those of the other elements. Fire and earth, wind and earth, water and earth, or even larger numbers and variances, all to wreak havoc upon the enemy. Using sand, and fire, and air, to make needles of glass that strike at the enemy at high speed, using air and earth to make dust storms to allow his allies to escape, using water and earth to make impassable swamps, using fire and earth to turn the ground to lava beneath his foes. He's done it all... and used the healing aspects as well. Of course, his battleworkings have been with many other casters aiding him... but he can do some impressive things on his own, thanks to his talents.
In any case. By himself, he's less impressive. Bear in mind, though, that he was part of immense workings. Smaller workings are STILL damned impressive in their own right! Here's a list of what he can do.
Earth Manipulation: He can control the earth, to put it simply. Its a rather localized effect, but he has a high degree of control over the landscape around him. He can also manipulate smaller bits of loose earth in a telekinetic manner, though its not TK, its geomancy. Needless to say, there is a very broad range of possible actions in this category...
Earth-born: This category essentially is the list of his own personal abilities. He has a minor empathic ability, essentially better able to tell if someone's not feeling too great or what have you. He also has a much more durable body than your average human, able to take a lot more physical punishment. IN addition to this, as long as his feet are firmly planted on solid ground, he has a lot more strength and and his durability is improved to match it. This is, largely, to keep his body from being crushed by the weight he's lifting, mind...
Earth's Embrace: The other aspects of earth. He can heal people, by accelerating the healing process. He's not as good as, say, a hydromancer, when it comes to healing flesh, but he can knit bone easily enough. In addition to this, he has an intimate understanding of the earth around him. ALSO, he can, with some effort, perform vorish actions, though this may be for other reasons. No one knows, he doesn't indulge often. In addition, so long as his remains reach the earth after death, within, say, a few weeks, he'll be born again from it, though perhaps without a few memories.
When it comes to combat, he fights up close and dirty, with a pair of heavy metal gauntlets. They're all he needs.
So yeah. PM if interested, please don't PM ICly.
