About this mod

Adds spells that summon Earth Atronachs to fight for you.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This mod adds a new type of Atronach that can be summoned to fight for you. Earth Atronachs are meant to provide a melee/tanking alternative to Flame Atronachs for low-level mages.

NOTE: Earth Atronachs have been incorporated into my Daedric Entity Restoration Project, so this mod will probably not be updated further. However, the mod is fully functional in its current state. Should you decide you want to use it, you can do so without any issues.

Features:

- "Conjure Earth Atronach" is an apprentice level Conjuration spell. The tome to learn it is available in the same places as "Conjure Flame Atronach", also an apprentice spell. One copy of the book has been placed in the cellar in Anise's cabin, near the Guardian Stones.

- The tome for "Earth Thrall" becomes available when you complete the Conjuration Ritual quest, just like the other Elemental Thrall spells. It can be purchased from Phinis Gestor at the College of Winterhold.

- These spells benefit from the Conjuration perks that affect elemental Atronachs: Elemental Potency, Apprentice Conjuration, Master Conjuration, Conjuration Dual Casting, Summoner, Atromancy, and Twin Souls.

- The Earth Atronach has a 20% resistance to both regular damage and magic. It has no elemental weaknesses, but deals no elemental damage itself.

- The Earth Atronach's power attacks can stagger and knock down enemies.

- Enemy mages may occasionally summon Earth Atronachs.

- Small and giant versions of the Earth Atronach were requested. These have been included in the "Rock Atronach Plus" file. "Summon Earth Atronach Runt" is a novice spell, and conjures a weak, downsized version of the Atronach. "Summon Earth Atronach Behemoth" is an expert level spell, and conjures a powerful version of the Atronach. Recommended for outdoor use only. The spell tomes have been placed in leveled lists, and one copy of each can be found in Anise's cabin.

Installation:

Download one of the main files (do not use both). Extract the archive into the Data folder, and check Rock Atronach.esp in the game launcher.
