A idea poped into my head for a class I would love to play, but I can't seem to find any already made class that fits what I am going for.
I guess gestalt cleric-paladin might work, but I would much better like to homebrew a class for it.
I am thinking of making as powerful as a gestalt character would be, but we will see.
The main idea is this: A warrior-caster who uses holy/divine energy to cast spells. Who has a spefic angel tied to him as a guardian (guardian angel). Also when casting spells that need a verbal component they basicly name off angels/divine beings then basicly ask/say what the spell does. Ex: "Ariel, Azrael, Gabriel, Micheal, Uriel. Lend me your power and heal these wounds" would be something you say when you cast heal/cure wounds. (I used Judeo-Christian angels, but you can easily change the names to match angels in your setting).
You also as I said, have a personal guardian angel that helps you when you need it and has a vested intrest in your well being. (The strength of this angel might be random, like a minor angel, major angel, arch-angel, mabye they are just randomly assigned to each member of this class when they are born. Or it goes up in strength as you level, possibly is a symbiotic relationship as in they lend you their strength, and you help them grow in power as you grow).
So what do you guys/gals think about this idea?
Know of a similar class?
Want to help me homebrew a class?
Ideas?
Thanks in advance.
