Description: The caster enters a stance in which they are wreathed in elemental fury at the expense of summoning capability. Elemental type is dependent on the current elemental stream, if no stream is selected then one of the four basic elements will be chosen. Epic spells are not affected by arcane spell failure from armor, nor can they be interrupted, countered, or dispelled. Upon activating the feat you are 'wreathed in elements' gain a plethora of bonus stats whose values vary and depend on your active elemental stream (see below), "all of the caster's summons are immediately dismissed and new summons are prevented while the stance is active".

ELEMENTAL AVATAR STANCE

Applies a series of bonuses based on stream (see below), as well as an AoE damage aura that procs once per round
Dismisses all of player's summons and prevents summoning by them
Applies a -30 to hide and move silently while active
Drains 0.1% piety per round while active
Levels in monk set the bonus AC to 0
Cannot be used with shape change
Activating divine might or shield while active deactivates elemental avatar and vice versa
Cannot be used with defensive stance

ELEMENTAL STREAM STATS

AIR

2/- Damage Resistance
+6 Shield AC
+4 Regeneration
d4+2 Electric damage applied to weapon
3d4 Electric damage aura

EARTH

6/- Damage Resistance
+2 Shield AC
+4 Regeneration
d4+2 Bludgeoning damage applied to weapon
3d4 Bludgeoning damage aura

FIRE

4/- Damage Resistance
+4 Shield AC
+2 Regeneration
d6+3 Fire damage applied to weapon

d2+1 Slashing damage applied to weapon
3d2 Slashing damage aura

Applies its 6 regeneration to allies in its aura

Notes

The dice portion of the bonus damage is applied directly to weapons and fists and thus respects defensive essences and does not work on ranged weapons and does not stack with pre-existing damage on the weapon of the same type (ie d8 fire damage on a weapon won't stack with the d6 fire on the fire stream).
The added portion of the damage is applied directly to the character. This means it works on all items, including ranged weapons and stacks, with all damage bonuses on items.
This spell will be able to be taken by warpriest.
