Gaea-RR

Gaea, Protogenos of Earth.

Geokinesis is the mental and/or physical ability to control/manipulate earth. Abilities can include earthquakes, fissures, rock slides, landslides, volcanic eruptions, or the ability to cause rocks to shoot up from the ground.

Description[]

The user of this ability is able to mentally and/or physically control earth. User can create, shape and manipulate earth and earthen elements including most solid objects, specifically all minerals and mineral compositions regardless of their state (mountain, boulder, sand or dust), dirt, soil, etc. With this ability, one could hurl rock, dirt or minerals at foes with only the power of their minds, create fissures, sinkholes, mudslides or form said rock, mud, and soil into constructs, like walls or projectiles. Powerful users may also be capable of even creating massive earthquakes, control every kind of metal or more even rarer: turn soil/rocks into lava. Although not seen, it's possibly possessed by the demigod child of Demeter and her Roman counterpart, Ceres. This ability can also be possessed by powerful children of Hades and his Roman counterpart Pluto.

The Battle of the Labyrinth[]

Trivia[]

  • Percy Jackson and this ability are complicated. The eruption he caused on Mount Saint Helens during the Battle of the Labyrinth was a result of a large outburst of water, not his control of the volcano. He also makes fissures by stabbing Riptide in the ground, [1][2] but it is unknown if this was caused by Percy, Riptide, or if the structure was simply weak enough to crack, along with the fact that there is water under it. In Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes, however, he claims he doesn't have any geokinetic abilities like an ancient son of Poseidon referenced.
