Nature Manipulation

The ability to manipulate the elements of nature. It's main power is Earth Manipulation, but the core power to increase your skills is Elemental Manipulation.

Capability
The basic elements of nature are earth, water, wind, and light. The user can manipulate or blend in with: stone, sand, dirt, most liquids, ice, snow, wind, weather, light, and natural disasters, but the user can not manipulate fire. Because this power is nature-based, insects and animals appeal to the user. Light is tricky, the user can generate and bend light to a certain extent. The user can survive in any natural environment on earth. This power also gives the user healing abilities.

Also, you have access to every living species of animal on Earth. You can also draw strength from them and aquire their abilities. Since you have nature, they obey your every command and operate on a "hive mind", meaning you can control an entire army of these beasties. You may be able to fly because you can make the winds maintain your weight (just like Storm). You can wrap enimies with vines plus you can wrap trees around yourself to make yourself a monster!

Also, with this ability can communicate psychically with nature itself. This means that one can become instantly familiar with his surroundings, talk to plants and tell them to grow, and even talk to the skies to change the weather. In addition, the connection is so deep that the earth can respond to one's emotions and desires (blossoming with flowers and calming weather when happy, making skies stormy when angry, shifting the landscape to gain the advantage in a fight, etc. )

The user can purify any form of water, air, and earth (plant-life). The user also gets some control over water, wind, and plants. And considering the fact that you're helping the environment, plants and animals act favorably towards you. Also, the user gets animal hunting and taming talents. And since this is an "earthly" power, the user gets some healing powers as well. The water-factor allows the user to breathe underwater; and the air-factor allows the user to glide.
