Caster or Holder: Holder
Description: It is as simple as it sounds. Ezra wields a long, two handed blade with the ability to slice opponents and deal good damage. However, with his own power, Ezra can cast a series of dangerous, earth oriented spells that deal good damage. This magic was originally born from Ezra's previous magic, ReQuip: Weapons Master, as he had taken a liking to swordsmanship and the experience in battle you get from it. A singular weapon and a slow but powerful series of earth spells, the two go hand and hand to form Earth Style: Swordsman Magic. It primarily uses stone, but extends to other elements such as mud, dust, sand, and other elements you can find in the earth.

It primarily uses stone, but extends to other elements such as mud, dust, sand, and other elements you can find in the earth.
Strengths:
- Because of obvious elemental advantages, this magic has the advantage to melee and lightning/electric wizards, dealing more damage and taking less damage from each of their possible attacks.
- Unlike your typical swordsman, the magic focuses on controlling the environment, maintaining HP and MP, and taking as little damage while dealing as much damage as possible with the sacrifice of speed.
Weaknesses:
- Naturally, Ezra's spells are less effective to water wizards.
- This magic sacrifices speed for heavy hits and defense.
- Water Wizards have a tendency to deal more damage to him.

Unique Abilities:
- Earth Style: God's Defense - At the beginning of any thread or duel, God's Defense is applied. Like most defenses in this magic, it has a basic defense (Can take up to 3 A-ranks, and 1.5 S-ranks, or the equivalent before shattering and suffering an 8 post cooldown.), however, has no duration, it shatters when it shatters. Because this is labeled as 'God's' defense, any darkness/shadow, poison, soul/death-oriented magics do 50% less damage or their original effects are reduced by 50%. When God's Defense is applied, only God Slayers and God Characters (That are stated to be Gods) can deal additional damage to this defensive ability, all other damage buffs used against this defense are ineffective unless they come from a spell that is of equal or higher rank. However, God Slayers and Water wizards deal 50% more damage.
- Earth Style: God's Blessing - At the beginning of any thread or duel, God's Blessing is automatically applied when another self defense UA or spell has been shattered. This UA is a basic self defense ability. It can take up to 3 A-ranks and 1.5 S-ranks before shattering, or the equivalent. This has no duration, just an 8 post cooldown after the damage has been taken. Because it is labeled 'God's Blessing', Ezra has been given a buff very unusual for earth mages. Ezra can increase his speed by 40%. However, God Slayers and Water Wizards can reduce that buff by 15% just by focusing their intent to brawl on Ezra.
- Earth Style: Second Chance - At the beginning of any thread or duel, Second Chance is automatically applied after Earth Style: God's Blessing has shattered or other defensive spells that have shattered. There is no duration, but an 8 post cooldown. It can take up to 3 A-ranks and 1.5 S-ranks before shattering, or the equivalent. Because the UA is labeled 'Second Chance', enemies cannot use the same type of spell (Defensive, Offensive, Fire, etc) spell twice while this UA is activated. This UA can be prevented from activating by covering Ezra is water from a wizard who specializes in it, preventing the chain of UAs.
- Ezra takes 50% less damage from Lightning and Electricity wizards. Earth cancels that element out! However, Ezra does not deal additional damage to those wizards.
- Ezra is not effected by the following status aliments if they are of equal or lower rank; burn, frozen, poison, stunned, knock back, and physical debuffs. If of higher rank, only suffers 35% of damage intended, or only suffers half of a duration for stuns.

Ezra can see clearly, but those of equal or lower rank my find themselves blind to it's effects. Ezra may also turn himself into the dust and transport himself silently and undetectably within the 20 meter AoE.
Strengths:- This provides a Ezra a mobile spell that aids him in the absence of his speed.
Weaknesses:- No offensive capability.
- Those who are only one rank above has less of a problem with vision, but cannot see beyond 10 meters into the cloud, as that is too far to see clearly. But this greatly decreases potential for stealth.

Name: Earthed
Rank: D
Type: Supportive, Earth
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 2 Posts
Description: Ezra sinks into the hard or soft ground below, and travels within 20 meter AoE to get to or away from a target. A signature strategy is to reappear directly below his foe, grabbing their ankles and keeping them in place or pulling them down into the ground, up until it reaches their neck. Those of equal or higher rank can break out instantly if sunk, those of lower rank remain grounded for the remainder of the spell. When grabbed by Ezra, Ezra must suffer three user ranked spells for him to ultimately let go, or the equivalent. At any point, Ezra can burst out of the ground at a maximum 20 meters in the air from the spell alone, and deal D-rank damage with an additional 25% due to the weight of his attacks.

The twister moves around unpredictably at the default speed of Ezra. Anything within 35 meters of the twister are sucked in by it's violent winds at basic B-rank speed, but with each post it remains, the speed of the suckage increases by 25%, and the range increasing by 5 meters every post after when it's cast.

The mud solidifies on impact, and only spells B-rank and higher can be cast for the duration, with a 25% speed debuff.
Strengths:- Decreases speed and restricts the use of C-rank and D-rank spells.
Weaknesses:- Water from Water Mages can soften the hard mud on their bodies and if it is B-rank and higher, rub it off and are no exempt from their effects.
