Captain
Pikmin captains aren't sure why, or how they control the fearsome pikmin, or why it seems that their lot in life is not to continue being a simple farm-hand or worker, but rather that they should be forced into a life of dangerous adventures accompanied by soulless carrion feeding plant life. Pikmin while they appear small and even cute, are all but devoid of emotions, compassion, and self preservation. Why should they care? If they fall in battle their seeds will feed off of the bodies of their slain enemies causing them to be born again. Pikmin revere captains as leaders of their hive, relaying information telepathically, and sacrificing themselves to prevent the slightest amount of damage to their captain. Captains themselves are usually unremarkable individuals who discover their powers on accident, what the lack in training and power, they make up in sheer tenacity and tactical thinking. Most often the are from hard working farming or hunting backgrounds and are somewhat use to dangers that befall those in the wild.

Special Abilities and Feats
Pikmin points:These points determine how many pikmin you can create you get a set amount each day [Charisma modifier + three times class level] and these can only be regenerated by resting or killing enemies [small enemy=1 point, medium=2, large=4, huge=8, gargantuan=16, colossal=32] you can only control a certain amount of pikmin at any given time [5 + Cha modifier + Class level] any pikmin created beyond this number, or are ordered to, become idle not moving from the spot they were picked and only attacking in self-defense.
Pikmin gain a hit die and a +1 BAB for every two levels you gain including first.[Instead of rolling everytime you spawn a pikmin, roll once for each type everytime you gain two levels] a captain canpick up to four pikmin during combat is a standard action, or eight as a full round.
Red Pikmin: At 1st level a captain can create red pikmin. Red pikmin are the most basic form of pikmin, they don't have any special attacks like other pikmin but they are tougher than most and are the cheapest to spawn.
Pikmin Weapon Proficiency: At 2nd level a captain has learned that the small pikmin are abnormally sturdy for something so small and are effective bludgeons, when used as a thrown weapon the pikmin deal initial damage as well as grappling the opponent to continuously attack.
Yellow Pikmin: At 3rd level yellow pikmin become available. All pikmin lack self preservation instinct, but none exhibit this trait more than the explosive yellows. When created, yellows have a small amount of bomb rocks created from their bodies which they will use for last stand or kamikaze attacks. Using yellows in large groups is a risky tactic as a single death can create a chain reaction.Yellows can be thrown at high arcs over enemy cover. When wielded as weapons yellows deal less damage but are light making them ideal for dual wielding.
Blue Pikmin: At 4th level blue pikmin become available. Blue pikmin are amphibious and therefore the only variety capable of swimming. In relation to other pikmin blues are better all rounders with better saves and higher crits, but not always worth the cost at lower levels. Their ability to breathe water and swim can make them invaluable in certain situations though.
Bomb Rock Throw: Yellow pikmin have become less suicidal and have learned the ability to throw bomb rocks 20 ft.
Con Increase: All pikmin's constitution attributes are increased by 1
Improved Natural Armor: All pikmin’s natural armor bonus increases by 1.
Budding: At 7th level pikmin you create have a flower bud on their stem rather than a leaf, this is an indicator of power and growth. Pikmin speed increases by 5 ft, Str, con, and dex increase by 1.
White Pikmin: At 7th level White pikmin become available. White pikmin release a powerful contact poison at will to weaken and kill their foes, in death they release a small cloud of it as a final punishment for anything foolish enough to eat or kill it. White pikmin are small and easy to throw, and choose which creatures are affected by it's poison.
Improved Natural Attack:The damage for pikmin's slam attack increases by one step, as if the their size had increased by one category: 1d2, 1d3, 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 2d6, 3d6, 4d6, 6d6, 8d6, 12d6.
Str increase: All pikmin's strength attributes are increased by 1
Improved Grapple:Pikmin do not provoke an attack of opportunity when they make a touch attack to start a grapple. They also gain a +4 bonus on all grapple checks, regardless of whether they started the grapple.
Purple Pikmin: The largest variety of pikmin, available at 10th level, these pikmin really know how to throw their weight around literally. Purples weigh more than they appear to this weight and density gives them devastating power and stunning capabilities. These pikmin require more essence from enemies than most other pikmin.
Element Release Red: Red pikmin gain 1d6 fire damage on their slam attack or when thrown. Plus an additional 1d10 on a critical.
Blooming: At 12th level pikmin you create have a flower on their stem rather than a bud, this is an indicator of power and growth. Pikmin speed increases by 5 ft, Str, and con increase by 2.
Bomb Boost Yellow: Increases the radius of bomb rocks two 20 ft, and increases damage to 3d6.
Improved Criticals Blue: Blue pikmin now have a crit range of 19-20 with their slam attacks or when thrown.
Powerful Build:The amazing strength of Pikmin lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger. Whenever a pikmin is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check (such as during grapple checks, bull rush attempts, and trip attempts), pikmin are treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him. Pikmin are also considered to be one size larger when determining whether a creature’s special attacks based on size (such as improved grab or swallow whole) can affect them.
Parasitic Pikmin: at 17th level captains gain access to these small, but dangerous pikmin. These loathsome little creatures take over the minds and bodies of other creatures from the inside. They can dominate a creature 1 day per HD. Cannot be used as a weapon like other pikmin. C.an only survive 1 day without a host
Pikmin Point Boost: Adds an extra 10 pikmin points to your max as well as doubling the amount you get from kills.[small enemy=2 point, medium=4, large=8, huge=16, gargantuan=32, colossal=64]
Pikmin Whip: This special attack requires that you sacrifice a pikmin for every attack you make with it in the round you activate it, when using the attack the captain selects five adjacent pikmin, each of which grab the legs of the one in front of it to form a chain, which the captain uses to inflict greivous damage upon enemies up to 20 ft away. This attack grants +5 BAB on all attacks made with it and activates a special attack for each pikmin used to attack, with a -4 on enemie's saves. example, a captain makes this attack with three yellows, a white, and a purple, and makes three attacks. The purple being on the end would activate its stun attack, then switch places with the white for the next attack who would use its poison, and then one of the yellows who would use a bomb rock, after this attack all three would die of exertion.

Pikmin gain a hit die and a +1 BAB for every two levels you gain including first.[Instead of rolling everytime you spawn a pikmin, roll once for each type everytime you gain two levels] a captain canpick up to four pikmin during combat is a standard action, or eight as a full round.
Red Pikmin: At 1st level a captain can create red pikmin. Red pikmin are the most basic form of pikmin, they don't have any special attacks like other pikmin but they are tougher than most and are the cheapest to spawn.
Pikmin Weapon Proficiency: At 2nd level a captain has learned that the small pikmin are abnormally sturdy for something so small and are effective bludgeons, when used as a thrown weapon the pikmin deal initial damage as well as grappling the opponent to continuously attack.
Yellow Pikmin: At 3rd level yellow pikmin become available. All pikmin lack self preservation instinct, but none exhibit this trait more than the explosive yellows. When created, yellows have a small amount of bomb rocks created from their bodies which they will use for last stand or kamikaze attacks. Using yellows in large groups is a risky tactic as a single death can create a chain reaction.Yellows can be thrown at high arcs over enemy cover. When wielded as weapons yellows deal less damage but are light making them ideal for dual wielding.
Blue Pikmin: At 4th level blue pikmin become available. Blue pikmin are amphibious and therefore the only variety capable of swimming. In relation to other pikmin blues are better all rounders with better saves and higher crits, but not always worth the cost at lower levels. Their ability to breathe water and swim can make them invaluable in certain situations though.

Powerful Build:The amazing strength of Pikmin lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger. Whenever a pikmin is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check (such as during grapple checks, bull rush attempts, and trip attempts), pikmin are treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him. Pikmin are also considered to be one size larger when determining whether a creature’s special attacks based on size (such as improved grab or swallow whole) can affect them.
Parasitic Pikmin: at 17th level captains gain access to these small, but dangerous pikmin. These loathsome little creatures take over the minds and bodies of other creatures from the inside. They can dominate a creature 1 day per HD. Cannot be used as a weapon like other pikmin. C.an only survive 1 day without a host
Pikmin Point Boost: Adds an extra 10 pikmin points to your max as well as doubling the amount you get from kills.[small enemy=2 point, medium=4, large=8, huge=16, gargantuan=32, colossal=64]
Pikmin Whip: This special attack requires that you sacrifice a pikmin for every attack you make with it in the round you activate it, when using the attack the captain selects five adjacent pikmin, each of which grab the legs of the one in front of it to form a chain, which the captain uses to inflict greivous damage upon enemies up to 20 ft away. This attack grants +5 BAB on all attacks made with it and activates a special attack for each pikmin used to attack, with a -4 on enemie's saves. example, a captain makes this attack with three yellows, a white, and a purple, and makes three attacks. The purple being on the end would activate its stun attack, then switch places with the white for the next attack who would use its poison, and then one of the yellows who would use a bomb rock, after this attack all three would die of exertion.
