Living Boulder
Creature 2 — earth, elemental
CrasherSnareLANDSUBTERRANEANelementalearth
Living boulders roll and glide through the Plane of Earth, gathering gemstones and metal shards until their surfaces resemble a ship's hull covered in barnacles. Barely more intelligent than many animals, living boulders fill much the same role on the Plane of Earth as the great herd animals found on worlds in the Universe. Certain earth elementals manifest as specific types of material, be they boulders, sand, or crystals.
