土元素裔的决策通常是耐心、固执和沉思的。土元素裔在出生时就具有明显的特征，这反映了他们的血统，通常其他人会避开土元素裔，但他们的身体天赋使他们能够抵御大多数攻击者。他们的力量和腰围意味着他们有时会成为恃强凌弱的人，因为害怕和尊重他们的力量而招来阿谀奉承。
Earth genasi are patient, stubborn, and contemplative in their decision-making. Marked at birth with obvious traits reflecting their heritage, earth genasi are often shunned by others, but their physical gifts make them able to defend themselves against most attackers. Their strength and girth means that they sometimes become bullies, attracting sycophants out of fear and respect for their power.
在费伦，至少有四分之三的土元素裔是人和土元素位面的异界生物的后代。其余的则是来自于土元素神祗或其仆人，而不是元素异界生物。大多数元素血统起源于北地，特别是在世界之脊附近，因为那里形成了土元素位面的自然入口，允许两个位面的土著相遇。在对大地神祗普遍崇拜的地方通常会产生土元素裔。人们认为，在因布图的土马刺山脉深处的路德瓦卡扎尔（Ludwakazar）盾矮人家族和在巨谷的托巴林（Tobarin）岩侏儒家族都有元素血统，但他们都对这个问题保持沉默，他们都不是真正的土元素裔，而是完全不同的东西。
At least three-quarters of the earth genasi in Faerun are the descendants of outsiders native to the Elemental Plane of Earth and humans. The rest are descended from earth deities or servants thereof instead of elemental outsiders. Most of the elemental bloodlines originate in the North, particularly near the Spine of the World, as natural portals to the Elemental Plane of Earth form there, allowing meetings between natives of both planes. The bloodlines spring up wherever worship of earth deities is common. It is thought that the Ludwakazar clan of shield dwarves deep in the Earthspurs in Impiltur and the Tobarin family of rock gnomes in the Great Dale have elemental blood, but both are mute on the question and neither would be a true earth genasi, but something quite different.
土元素裔显然不是人类，但除了一两个与他们的元素祖先相关的显著特征外，它们大多具有人类特征。这些特点的一些例子是:
Earth genasi are obviously not human, but have mostly human features except for one or two distinguishing traits related to their elemental ancestor. Some examples of these features are:
类似泥土的皮肤
黑眼眶
眼睛像宝石
沙哑的声音
非常大的手和脚
铁灰色的头发
出的汗是泥浆而不是水
皮肤或头发的金属光泽
earthlike skin
eyes like black pits
eyes like gems
gravelly voice
very large hands and feet
iron gray hair
sweats mud instead of water
metallic sheen to skin or hair
土元素裔像所有的元素神魔裔一样，为他们的本性和能力感到骄傲，但是他们的骄傲是安静而自信的，而不是自负的。土元素裔对他们的出身很务实，通常不会特意去了解他们的祖先，但也不会回避这个话题。土元素裔与他们的同类没有特殊关系，尽管他们似乎更喜欢与他们有物理差异的其他人。
Earth genasi, like all elemental planetouched, are proud of their nature and abilities, but their pride is a quiet, confident sort rather than a boastful one. Earth genasi are pragmatic about their parentage, usually not going out of their way to learn their ancestry but not avoiding the topic either. Earth genasi have no special relationship with others of their kind, although they seem to prefer others who share their physical differences.
土元素裔与人类有着相同的预期寿命和年龄类别。
Earth genasi have the same life expectancy and age categories as a human.
历史History
土元素裔没有共同的历史。他们的血统大多来自人类和土元素异界生物的偶然相遇，甚至那些来自大地神祗的代言人的后代也没有共同的目的散布在世界各地。因为异界生物的特征往往会跳过一到两代人，所以会出现血统似乎消失了几十年，却出人意料地在一个已经忘记祖先的家族中再次出现的情况。由于土元素裔的生育能力略低于人类，一些血统完全消失了。出于其不同的起源，无论是位面的还是地理的，土元素裔都可以在任何人类种族群体中找到。
Earth genasi have no common history. Most of their bloodlines derive from chance meetings between humans and earth outsiders, and even those descended from agents of earth deities are spread across the world with no common purpose. Because the outsider features often skip a generation or two, bloodlines seem to disappear for decades only to pop up again unexpectedly in a family that had forgotten its ancestry. Because earth genasi are slightly less fertile than humans, some bloodlines disappear altogether. Because of their varied origins, both planar and geographical, earth genasi may be found among any human racial group.
性格Outlook
土元素裔对自己的血统感到骄傲并轻视他人的意见，他们知道他们是被大地本身的力量所触碰的生命。尽管他们知道他们的异界生物血统的环境是罕见的，并将他们标记为不同于他们可能遇到的任何人，但每个人仍然感到与大地本身有着强烈的亲缘关系。当他们的脚着地时，他们感觉最舒服，如果天气和环境合适的话，他们更喜欢赤脚（土元素裔很容易长出厚厚的老茧，甚至可以在碎石上行走而不感到不适）。他们习惯了被区别对待，但如果受到骚扰，他们有能力保护自己。土元素裔尊重他们的土元素表亲的力量，但通常对其他土元素生物漠不关心。
Proud of their heritage despite the opinions of others, earth genasi know they are born of beings touched by the might of the earth itself. Although they know the circumstances of their outsider heritage are rare and mark them as unlike anyone they might meet, each still feels a strong kinship to the earth itself. Earth genasi feel most comfortable when their feet are on the ground and prefer to go barefoot if appropriate for the weather and environment (earth genasi develop thick calluses easily and can even walk on gravel without discomfort). They are used to being treated differently, but have the strength to defend themselves if harassed. Earth genasi respect their earth elemental cousins for their strength but are usually indifferent to other earth elemental creatures.
土元素裔喜欢划出一块土地作为他们自己的领土并保卫它，这使得他们在像银月联盟这样的边疆地区成为特别有价值的农场主。一些不寻常的土元素裔带着一种奇怪的流浪癖来到这里，希望在他们死之前能用脚走过每个国家的土地。这样的旅程可能需要30年，但只要有系统的决心的某些土元素裔已经因为他们的长途旅行而出名。
Earth genasi like to stake out a piece of land as their own and defend it, which makes them particularly valuable homesteaders in frontier regions like the Silver Marches. A few unusual ones come down with a strange form of wanderlust, wishing to plant their feet on every nation’s soil before they die. Such a journey might take thirty years, but with methodical determination certain genasi have become famous for their long-distance travels.
土元素裔角色EARTH GENASI CHARACTERS
大多数土元素裔冒险者是战斗倾向的，无论是战士，武士，游侠还是野蛮人。他们通常学习的战斗风格依赖于他们的天赋，所以一个土元素裔的武装者要么能够令人难以置信的进行杀戮，要么能够忍受毁灭性的攻击而保持不动摇。土元素裔法师并不常见，但是那些使用奥术的法师经常学习法术来提高他们的战斗技能或者成为土元素魔法的大师。
Most adventuring earth genasi are combat-oriented, whether fighter, warrior, ranger, or barbarian. They usually learn styles of combat that rely on their gifts, so an earth genasi armsman is either capable of incredible bloodshed or capable of enduring devastating attacks and remaining unshaken. Earth genasi wizards are uncommon, but those who do embrace arcane magic often learn spells to enhance their fighting skills or become masters of earth magic.
受欢迎的职业：战士。一些土元素裔可能会选择更专业的军事路线，但大多数土元素裔角色更喜欢战士职业提供的额外专长。
Favored Class: Fighter. Some earth genasi may opt for a more specialized martial path, but the majority of earth genasi characters prefer the many bonus feats that only the fighter class offers.
进阶职业：土元素裔喜欢任何能帮助他们更好战斗的进阶职业，尤其是神力斗士。土元素裔牧师对符文有亲和力，经常成为符文师。
Prestige Classes: Earth genasi favor any prestige class that helps them fight better, particularly the divine champion. Earth genasi clerics have an affinity for runes, and often become runecasters.
土元素裔社会Earth Genasi Society
土元素裔是最孤立的元素神魔裔之一。他们对同类漠不关心，认为每个人都应该依靠自己的力量坚持下去。唯一容易突破这种情感障碍的时候是两个或两个以上具有相同身体特征的土元素裔相遇的时候。外表上的相似唤醒了土元素裔的同情和亲属关系，而这些相似常常导致深厚的友谊甚至婚姻。
Earth genasi are among the most isolated of the elemental planetouched. They are indifferent to others of their kind, believing that each should rely on his or her own strength to persevere. The only time this emotional barrier is easily breached is when two or more genasi with the same physical traits meet. The superficial resemblance sympathy and kinship in the earth genasi, and these similarities often lead to deep friendships and even marriages.
土元素裔的小部族就是在这些组织中形成的——通常是军事组织，如雇佣兵组织、游侠中队或一帮野蛮暴徒。这些个体之间的联系可以变得非常紧密，吟游诗人讲述了一队土元素裔在一起惩罚一个残忍的情人或对团队成员之一的死亡负责的人的故事。因为土元素裔是有耐心的，有时这种报复会在事件发生几个月甚至几年之后，通常是在一个令人惊讶和痛苦的遭遇中发生。
It is among these groups that small clans of earth genasi form, usually military-based groups such as a mercenary company, a squadron of rangers, or a gang of barbarian thugs. The bonds between these individuals can grow very strong, and the bards tell of entire bands of earth genasi meeting to punish a cruel lover or person responsible for the death of one of the band. Because the genasi are patient, sometimes this revenge comes about months or even years after the event, usually in a surprising and painful encounter.
由于他们的力量，土元素裔经常能够领导他人。这意味着土元素裔会以招募与他们志气相投的战士而闻名，无论他们是不是元素裔，并在与世隔绝的土地上为自己建立小型的男爵领。在边境王国的历史上，有几个领导者是土元素裔。
Because of their strength, earth genasi often fall into relationships where they are the dominant person. This means that earth genasi are known to collect like-minded warriors about them, genasi or not, and carve out small baronies for themselves in isolated lands. Several leaders in the history of the Border Kingdoms have been earth genasi.
语言和文字Language and Lıteracy
在土元素裔中没有共同的语言，他们没有学习土族语的冲动，除非他们碰巧是一个需要与召唤的元素交流的施法者。一个土元素裔通常学习她父母的语言，也可能学习她家乡的其他语言。
There is no common language among earth genasi, and they feel no urge to learn Terran unless they happen to be a spellcaster who needs to communicate with summoned elementals. An earth genasi usually learns the language of her parents and possibly other languages spoken in her native region.
除了野蛮人，所有的土元素裔都有读写能力。
All earth genasi are literate, except barbarians.
土元素裔神祗Earth Genasi Deities
土元素裔没有种族的神或神系。因为土元素裔牧师必须选择那些拥有土元素领域的神灵，所以所有的土元素裔牧师都崇拜卡勒杜兰·滑手、裳提亚、杜马松、盖布、贡德、谷蓝巴、茹塞可、摩拉丁、沙苟贞·大地唤者、厄尔德连或尤拉加兰。那些不够虔诚，不能成为牧师的土元素裔仍然崇拜那些神，或一个适合他们地区的以土地或自然为主题的神。
Earth genasi have no racial deity or pantheon. Because earth genasi clerics must choose deities who grant the Earth domain, all air genasi clerics worship Callarduran Smoothhands, Chauntea, Dumathoin, Geb, Gond, Grumbar, Luthic, Moradin, Segojan Earthcaller, Urdlen, or Urogalan. Those who are not devout enough to be clerics still worship those deities or an earth- or nature-themed deity appropriate to their region.
裳提亚被土元素裔尊为大地的力量和生命本身的融合，是这个种族中最常见的选择。许多崇拜这个神的土元素裔人忽略了她的农业方面，而是专注于她作为一个善良的大地母亲的角色，一个充满他们所行走的大地的生命和力量的基础。更温和的裳提亚崇拜者都非常乐意雇佣一个信仰裳提亚的土元素裔作为守卫。
Revered by earth genasi as the fusion of the powers of earth and life itself, Chauntea is a popular choice among this race. Many of the earth genasi who worship this deity ignore her agricultural aspect and instead focus on her role as the benign Earthmother, a foundation of life and strength that suffuses the ground they walk on. The more gentle worshipers of Chauntea are all too happy to hire an earth genasi of the faith as a guard.
穆尔霍兰德和邻近的土地上有一小群本地土元素裔，他们中的大多数人尊敬盖布，因为他神圣血统的孩子们变成了本地的土元素裔而不是阿斯莫。来自盖布血统的土元素裔经常与熊有亲缘关系，有时与熊有微弱的相似之处。他们可以选择神魔裔动物亲和力专长。
Mulhorand and the lands adjacent to it have a small earth genasi population, most of whom revere Geb, for the children of his divine line become earth genasi instead of aasimar. Earth genasi from Geb’s bloodline often have an affinity for bears and sometimes have a faint resemblance to a creature of that type. They may select the Planetouched Animal Affinity feat.
许多土元素裔崇拜土元素之主谷蓝巴。尽管他并不会比任何其他崇拜者更偏爱土元素裔，但土元素裔尊重这一点，并将其视为证明每个人都应该依靠自己的能力获得成功的证据。
Many earth genasi worship Grumbar, the lord of earth elementals. Although he shows them no more favor than any other worshiper, the genasi respect this and see it as proof that each should rely on his or her own abilities to succeed.
与其他种族关系Relations with Other Races
土元素裔与侏儒和矮人相处得很好，但发现精灵和半精灵太弱小，不值得认真对待。半身人几乎和精灵属于同一类，除了他们表现出一种非凡的生存天赋，这是土元素裔所尊重的。奇怪的是，大多数精灵和半精灵都很欣赏土元素裔与这片土地的联系，尽管这种尊重并没有得到回应。
Earth genasi get along well with gnomes and dwarves but find elves and half-elves too weak and puny to be taken seriously. Halflings would almost be in the same category as elves except that they show a remarkable talent for survival, which the genasi respect. Oddly enough, most elves and half-elves appreciate an earth genasi’s ties to the land, even though the feeling is not reciprocated.
由于土元素裔通常有人类父母，他们与人类相处得很好。他们对其他种类的神魔裔没有偏见，甚至对他们对在他们看来轻浮但技艺精湛的风元素裔也没有偏见。半兽人对土元素裔很有吸引力，因为他们是热血且更强壮的种族，但又有人类的本性相调和，这和土元素裔一样，所以土元素裔认为他们是较弱但相似的亲属。
As earth genasi usually have human parents, they get along fine with humans. They have no bias for or against other kinds of planetouched, even the air genasi, whom they consider flighty but skilled. Half-orcs are intriguing to earth genasi, for they have the hot blood of a much stronger race tempered with human nature much as earth genasi do, so the planetouched consider them lesser but similar kin.
土元素裔装备Earth Genasi Equipment
土元素裔没有种族传统的武器或装备，但他们中有非常多的人喜欢携带他们自己锻造的武器。常见的武器是在实际情况和战斗中都有用的工具，如锤子、斧头和镐。
Earth genasi have no traditional racial weapons or equipment, although an unusually high number of them prefer to carry weapons that they themselves forged. Common weapons are implements that are useful in practical situations as well as combat, such as hammers, axes, and picks.
动物和宠物ANIMALS AND PETS
当土元素裔携带宠物或动物伙伴时，他们通常喜欢强壮而矮胖的动物，比如獒犬、獾和熊。有些土元素裔喜欢蛇，比起毒蛇，他们更喜欢蟒蛇。
When earth genasi take pets or animal companions, they usually favor strong and squat creatures, such as mastiffs, badgers, and bears. A few have a fondness for snakes, preferring constrictors to venomous ones.
