The earth priest can rend a creature immune to all attacks based on earth. The spell protects against creatures from the elemental plane of earth, from or metal weapons or from attacks made using earth (sand, dust, rocks and the like). The recipient of the spell can breathe normally and does not suffocate if buried below ground or in the Sea of Silt. If the priest is 13th-level or more, the recipient can totally ignore the element of earth. He can pass through earth (stone, metal, rocks, dust, silt, etc.) and move with no hindrance at all.
The material component of the spell is a gem, of at least 1 gp value, eaten by the recipient during the casting. It vanishes after the spell expires. This spell was designed for the Dark Sun campaign world. Any monetary units are for the Dark Sun, increase where appropriate.
