Rage Prophet
The problem with almost all Prestige Classes in Pathfinder is that they blow seem underwhelming and disconnected from the rest of the system. I have tried to recreate the same feel of the original in a more attractive package. Hopefully, nothing too broken came out of this. Comments are always appreciated.
I am of a half mind of doing this for as many PrCs as possible, and collect them in the "PF Grand Achetypization Thread".. We'll see.
Some oracles are possessed by an inner fury that knows no bounds. Instead of the rage prophet drawing her powers from deities, she simply let her anger burst out.
Alignment: any non-lawful.
DIMINISHED SPELLCASTING
A rage prophet can use one fewer spell per day of each level and does not automatically learn cure or inflict spells (spells with "cure" or "inflict" in the name). Her number of oracle spells known is unchanged.
EXPANDED SPELL LIST
A rage prophet add the following spells to her spell list:
1st—Unseen Servant; 2nd—See Invisibility, Spectral Hand, Whispering Wind; 4th—Arcane Eye; 5th—Dream; 6th—Shadow Walk; 7th—Vision.
LUCID RAGE
Rage (Ex): A rage prophet can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. This works like the Rage (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/barbarian#TOC-Rage-Ex-) ability of the barbarian; rage prophet levels count as barbarian levels for the purpose of rounds of rage available per day, as well as for any rage power available. Levels of barbarian and rage prophet stack when determining rage rounds and effects of rage ability and powers.
At 11th level, this revelation functions as Greater rage. At 20th level, this revelation functions as Mighty Rage.
Lucidity (Ex): at the start of every round of rage, the rage prophet can choose not to gain any benefits or take any of the penalties from rage for 1 round. Activating this rage power is a free action. This includes the penalty to Armor Class and the restriction on what actions can be performed. This round still counts against her total number of rounds of rage per day.
REVELATIONS
A rage prophet gains a new revelation at 5th level and 13th level. These are in addition to the normal revelations she receives at 3rd level, 7th level, and so on. In addition, the rage prophet may select the following revelations in place of a mystery revelation.
Rage Power (Ex): A rage prophet gains a rage power (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/barbarian/rage-powers) she qualifies for instead of a revelation. This revelation can be selected more than once. The rage prophet must be at least 2nd level before selecting this revelation.
Clarity of Mind (Su): A rage prophet is able to cast cure spells on himself while raging without using the Moment of Clarity power. At 7th level, she is able to cast spells with a range of “personal” on herself this way. At 13th level, she is able to cast any spell that targets her in this fashon.
Ragecaster (Su): A rage prophet's spell grow more potent when he rages. Once per rage, a rage prophet can add her Constituion bonus to concentration checks. At 7th level, a rage prophet can add her Constitution bonus to her caster level instead. At 13th level, a rage prophet can add her Constituion bonus to the DC of a spells she casts instead.
Spirit Guide (Sp): The rage prophet gains a spirit guide, an insubstantial phantom that speaks to her mind, watches over her, and lends her its strength and wisdom. Whenever the rage prophet rages, she gains the benefit of a single guidance spell from her spirit guide; this bonus can be used at any time during her rage. The spirit guide also allows the rage prophet to use dancing lights, ghost sound, and mage hand as spell-like abilities once per day each (caster level equal to the rage prophet’s class level). The DCs are Charisma-based.
At 7th level, the competence bonus provided by the spirit guide’s guidance spell increases to half the rage prophet’s class level when used while battling a fey, outsider, undead, or incorporeal creature. As a swift action, the rage prophet can spend 1 round of rage (whether he is raging or not) to give her armor and weapons the ghost touch property for 1 round; this effect ends if the item is no longer in his possession.
At 11th level, the competence bonus provided by the rage prophet’s guidance increases to her rage prophet level when used while battling a fey, outsider, undead, or incorporeal creature. Her ability to give his armor and weapons the ghost touch property becomes an immediate action instead of a swift action.
Force of Personality (Ex): While raging, the rage prophet adds her Charisma to Fortitude saves.
Recommended Mysteries: Ancestors, Battle, Metal, Nature.
