Hi folks,
I have created a new NPC-Prestige class and would like to share it.
Background:
The Army of peace is a faction in my new campaign (see http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=288975).
They live in absolute peace and devote them themselves completely to the gods. A member of this group is called a Soldier of peace.

Prerequisites: Ability to cast 3rd level spells from at least two of the following domains
Protection, Healing,Good, Law, Travel, Knowledge
Must have killed at least one foe in battle.
Alignment: any non chaotic, non evil (may us atonement to alter alignment)

Divine Oath: To become a member of the army of peace one has to take an oath:

Never use violence or aggression against any living creature or object. (making firewood is not seen a violence but breaking a door is)
Never support any act of violence directly (e.g. heal someone, so he can continue fighting)
Never take advantage of violence (take no money that was stolen or taken from a defeated foe)
Never speak a lie.

This oath prevents the soldier to use any weapon or spell /spell like ability that is violent or harmful in any way or forces someone to do something against their will (This includes spells like "Hold person".)

Circle of peace: 3 Members of the AoP can form a circle that emanates a 30ft aura of peace which acts like the "Calm emotions" spell (caster level = sum of cl in circle)

Divine Knowledge:
All knowledge skills are class skills and a Soldier gains a +2 insight bonus
on all knowledge based skill checks

Divine Protection:
At the 3rd level, the addiction to peace is awarded with protection from the gods
The character gets a +1 divine bonus on saving throws and a +2 bonus on ac
This bonus is increased to +2/+4 on the 6th and to +3/+6 on the 9th level

Aura of peace:
Beginning at the 5th level the Soldier is radiating peace in a 20 ft circle around him. This works like the spell "Calm emotions" with a caster level equal to the class levels as a Soldier of peace


Divine Wisdom
Gains +2 on all Wisdom based skill checks, and +2 on Wil saving throws

Aura of Silence
Beginning at the 7th level the Soldier is radiating silence in a 20 ft circle around him.
All sounds are damped by 25% + 5% per level in this prestige class.
Spells or abilities (e.g. bard songs) with a sonic component require a concentration check with a DC of 10 + 1/ 5% of damping. The DC for listen checks is increased by 1 per 5% of damping. Words spoken by a soldier of peace are unaffected by this aura.

Peace of mind
Immunity to all mind effecting spells, gains true seeing.

Transcendence
Soldier becomes ethereal, creature type changes to outsider.
