Hello!
I've created this class for a campaign I'm going to master. The setting I've created has fairly low magic so I wanted to create a low level spellcaster and just forget about wizards, sorcerers, druids and clerics.
The idea is that in this setting magic comes from a power inside the individual, something like the sorcerer but there are no dragon-blood things in the setting. Magic is just raw arcane power, and hte enchanter learns how to control it in order to create various effects, even tough not even him knows where does this power comes from.
I was aiming at tier 3 but maybe it's a bit overpowered to enter in that tier.
Enchanter
Background: An enchanter can come from any kind of background. Maybe he was an artisan when he first discovered his powers, or maybe he was a thief.
Races: Any races can become an enchanter.
Other Classes: Enchanters get along well with rogues and bards, since these classes are more likely to share the enchanter's methods. An enchanter hardly will get in a fight with another class just because of way of thinking, but they dislike barbarians' ways of acting most.
Role: An enchanter can act as a buffer, a debuffer or a blaster.
Abilities: to an Enchanter Charisma is the most important ability, since it determines his enchantements' power and it's also used in many of their skills. After Charisma, Constitution and Dexterity both make good choices.
Alignment: Any.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Enchanters are proficient with all simple weapons. They are proficient with light armor but not with shields.
Because the somatic components required for enchanter enchantments are relatively simple, an enchanter can use any of his enchantments while wearing light armor without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance. However an enchanter wearing medium or heavy armor or using a shield incurs a chance of arcane spell failure (all enchantments have a somatic component).
Arcane Focus: The Arcane Focus represents the ability of an enchanter to maintain certain enchantments while performing other actions. Every enchanter gains an amount of Focus Points during his career equal to his Base Will Progression + 1/2 his enchanter level + Charisma Modifier.
An enchanter can use the Focus Points from his Arcane Focus Pool to maintain active more than one enchantment at a time, but the costs of active enchantments can never exceed the total points of the Arcane Focus Pool.
In order to maintain enchantments that has a duration longer than "Instantaneous", an enchanter must invest a certain amount points from his Arcane Focus Pool equal to:
Equivalent Spell Level +1 for each person after the first one that are affected by the enchantment.
These points are invested for all of the enchantment's duration and are regained one turn after the enchantment has expired. Once the enchanter recover his Focus Points, he can invest them again.
The sum of the enchantments' equivalent spell levels cannot exceed the total of Focus Points; if an enchanter cast an enchantment without enough Focus Points to maintain it, the enchantment simply fails.
The enchanter can dismiss an active spell with a swift action.
Enchantments: An enchanter possesses a repertoire of attacks, defenses, and abilities known as enchantments that require him to focus the wild energy that suffuses his soul. An enchanter can use any invocation he knows at will, with the following qualifications:
An enchanter's enchantments are spell-like abilities; using an enchantment is therefore a standard action that provokes attacks of opportunity. An enchantment can be disrupted, just as a spell can be ruined during casting. An enchanter is entitled to a Concentration check to successfully use an enchantment if he is hit by an attack while enchanting, just as a spellcaster would be. An enchanter can choose to use an enchantment defensively, by making a successful Concentration check, to avoid provoking attacks of opportunity. An enchanter's enchantments are subject to spell resistance unless an enchantment's description specifically states otherwise. An enchanter's caster level with his enchantments is equal to his enchanter level.
The save DC for an enchantment (if it allows a save) is 10 + 1/2 Enchanter's level + the enchanter's Charisma modifier. Since spell-like abilities are not actually spells, an enchanter cannot benefit from the Spell Focus feat. He can, however, benefit from the Ability Focus feat (see page 303 of the Monster Manual), as well as from feats that emulate metamagic effects for spell-like abilities, such as Quicken Spell-Like Ability and Empower Spell-Like Ability (see pages 303 and 304 of the Monster Manual).
The four grades of enchantments, in order of their relative power, are least, lesser, greater, and grand. An enchanter begins with knowledge of one enchantment. As an enchanter gains levels, he learns new enchantments, as summarized on the class table and described below. In the moment an enchanter casts and enchantments, he choses whether the enchantment is going to be of least, lesser, greater or grand grade. An enchantment gains all the benefits and options of lower grade versions. An enchantment always have a single target, unless "Form" is applied. The same enchantment's effects don't apply multiple times on a single target.
At any level when an enchanter learns a new enchantment, he can also replace an enchantment he already knows with another enchantment of the same or a lower grade. At 6th level, an enchanter can replace a least enchantment he knows with a different least enchantment (in addition to learning a new enchantment, which could be either least or lesser). At 11th level, an encahnter can replace a least or lesser enchantment he knows with another enchantment of the same or a lower grade (in addition to learning a new enchantment, which could be least, lesser, or greater). At 16th level, an enchanter can replace a least, lesser, or greater enchantment he knows with another enchantment of the same or a lower grade (in addition to learning a new enchantment, which could be least, lesser, greater, or dark).
Finally, unlike other spell-like abilities, enchantments are subject to arcane spell failure chance as described under Weapon and Armor Proficiency above.
