Class Features
Close Bond: Upon taking their first level in soul-linked, the partners are linked to each other at the very soul. They may not gain levels unless they both have enough experience to reach the next level, and they may not take levels in classes other than soul-linked.
Companionship: Despite being humanoids, the partners are treated as animal companions, familiars, and psycrystals for each other for all purposes, gain all benefits for being any of those of their effective hit-dice. Their hit dice for the purpose of this class feature is equal to their class level in soul-linked, rather than their actual hit dice.
Support: At each 1st level, the soul-linked gain a +1 morale bonus to their Armor Class and to all d20 rolls whenever they are within 5 squares of their partner and in their line of sight. At each further odd-numbered level, this bonus increases by one.
Eternal Bond: Upon reaching 15th level in soul-linked, the partners are closer than ever, and will always have each other in their hearts. They may now take levels in other classes (because there ARE no more in this one), and level up independently of each other. In addition, the partners' hit dice for the purpose of Companionship are now equal to the lower character level between the two partners. Finally, if one of the partners should die, the other can perform a ritual that takes one hour and acts as True Resurrection on the dead partner, except that there are no material components, and the partner being raised suffers no level loss.
