Disables and repositions his enemies.
Reborn of stone and jade, Kaolin fights with strength gathered from a thousand years of entombment. The great general places, like pieces on a grand board, silent Stone Remnants for use in strategies known only to himself. A master of positioning and versatility, Kaolin knocks back foes with Boulder Smash, pull allies from the jaws of death with Geomagnetic Grip, freely manipulating and Enchanting Remnants at will. Never one to lead from behind, Kaolin crashes into the fray as a Rolling Boulder. Foes are left stumbling away from battle, their health slipping as they try in vain to escape from the general's maze of Magnetized stones.

Bio

[edit]
Through conflict, one's nature is revealed.
▶️  Kaolin, the Earth Spirit
Aliases:
ES, Kaolin
Deep amid the Upland crags and cliffs there runs a seam of sacred jade long foresworn by highland miners. From this rare material, the likeness of the great general Kaolin was carved and buried at the head of a stone funerary army ten thousand strong—a force of soldiers and holy men, jesters and acrobats, carved by crafstmen and entombed for millennia in the dark embrace of the Earth.

What the craftsmen had not known was that within the strange seam of jade flowed the spirit of the Earth itself—an elemental force at one with the planet. When the force within the carved jade found itself cut off from the life's blood of the world, it gathered its strength over the course of a thousand years and dug itself free and into the light. Now the great Kaolin Earth Spirit strides the Upland roads, fighting for the spirit of the Earth; and in times of need calls forth remnants of his buried army still locked in the loving embrace of the soil.

Trivia

[edit]
  • Earth Spirit's original design included a hat, but this was scrapped before release. It is still visible on his Stone Remnants.
  • "Kaolin", is a reference to a type of fine white clay of the same name.
  • His lore draws inspiration from the Terracotta Army, a collection of statues depicting Chinese emperor "Qin Shi Huang Di"'s armies.
  • ▶️ "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." may be a reference from Matthew 26:41 in the Bible (KJV).
  • In DotA, Stone Remnant is named "Stone Caller", and summons a literal rock, instead of a remnant.
    • It was changed to a remannt in Dota 2, so that all of the 4 spirit heroes have a remnant creating ability.
    • Within the game files, the ability is still named Stone Caller in several intances.
  • Warcraft 3 similarities:
    • Earth Spirit is based on and inspired by the Earth aspect, a unit summoned by the Warcraft hero, Pandaren Brewmaster.
    • Like Ember Spirit, Storm Spirit, and Brewmaster, Earth Spirit is a Pandaren, a race within the Warcraft 3 universe.
    • In Dota 2, Earth, Ember, and Storm Spirit are raceless elemental spirits instead.
    • Brewmaster's conncetion to the spirits is not expanded on in Dota 2.
