I couldnt just paste my table, so one piece of information that is missing is that they increase spell caster levels as a druid. I havent figured out the exact prereq's yet, but I am thinking that they will not be able to get this until they are 9th level. the details are below, what do you think? right now i feel like it starts out a little underpowered and ends up overpowered. any thoughts?

Earth Mastery (Ex)
At first level an Earthen Master gains a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls if both it and its foe are touching the ground. If an opponent is airborne or waterborne, the elemental takes a -4 penalty on attack and damage rolls. (These modifiers are not included in the statistics block.)

In addition, Earth Master’s loses access to all lightning, weather, and air based spells. In addition, when casting Summon Nature’s Ally, an Earthen Master may cast this spell normally except that when she summons an elemental, she may only summon an earth elemental.

Earth Elemental Affinity
Due to the Earthen Master’s affinity with Earth Elementals, when using Summon Nature’s Ally to summon any earth elemental, it only takes an Earthen Master a Standard Action to cast the spell rather than a full round.

Earth Elemental Growth
This is a spell that is simply added to the Earthen Master’s repertoire. It is added to the list of 5th level spells that can be known by a Druid. It functions exactly as the 5th level spell Animal Growth except that it functions on earth elementals.

Shapeshift Natural Armor +1
An Earthen Master’s connection the element creates an allow of flesh and stone when the Master changes shape. Therefor, she receives a +1 bonus to natural armor.

Shapeshift Str +2
When shifted, an Earthen Master calls on the power of the earth and gains a +2 bonus to strength.

Earthen Blow
When taking elemental form, an Earthen Master can only Shapeshift into Earth Elemental form. However, when the Earthen Master does shift into an Elemental, she gains the benefits of Awesome Blow (a feat from the monster’s manual).

Shapeshift Con +2
When shifted, an Earthen Master calls on the power of the earth and gains a +2 bonus to constitution.

This probably belongs in the Homebrew forum. You can ask a mod to move it. Also, you will find guides there that will help you standardize your presentation.

Edit: Where did those extra attacks come from? Fixed.

They'll probably miss those spells you took away, but Druids get too much candy anyhow. I don't know that the bonuses are really worth a prestige class, but it's decent flavor and it's pretty darned hard to underpower a PrC that still gives druids full casting.

Does their level Stack for Animal Companions?

Shapeshift Druids don't get Animal Companions

PM one of the mods, such as Roland. They're listed on the bottom right of the forum page, I think.

Or check the Forum Rules link at the top of the page, where it's probably explained.
