I've been looking back over the Homebrew archives, and I've seen so many good classes that I want to try out, but given the infrequency of new campaigns, I'll never be able to try them all. As a solution to this, I came up with the Jack, a class that gets access to so many different options, it's quite crazy (Also MAD, but the capstone can help with that). I'm not exactly done with writing all the Foci, but they aren't that hard to do, and I'll be adding them as I write them. I intend to have a focus for every SRD base class, and as many Homebrew ones as I can.
The Jack
Creating a Jack
A Jack is not quite a mage, and not quite a fighter. Jacks dabble in everything, and while not as good in a fight as the fighter, not as capable with magic as the wizard, and not as mentally strong as the Psion, can do a little of each.
Abilities: A Jack has use for every ability. Because they do everything, they, logically, need everything to do it with. The most powerful Jacks can find ways to consolidate the abilities they need, however, to only one or two scores.
Races: Jacks come from every species, though the Jack-of-all-Trades nature of Humans make them the most common source of the class.
Alignment: Jacks can be of any alignment, though they have a leaning towards Chaotic given the varied nature of their capabilities.
Class Skills: The Jack's class skills (And the key ability for each skill) are Bluff (Cha), Concentration (Con), Knowledge (All Skills, Taken Separately) (Int), Listen (Wis), Martial Lore (Int), Profession (Wis), Psicraft (Int), Spellcraft (Int), Spot (Wis), Truespeak (Int), and Use Magic Device (Cha).

Class Features:
Weapon and Armour Proficiencies: A Jack is proficient with light armor and shields. A Jack is proficient with all simple weapons.
Focus: At first level, a Jack gains two Foci, chosen from the list below.

A Jack's Faker Level, which is used to determine the abilities of their Foci, is equal to one half of his or her class level, rounded up. Your Faker Level can not exceed 2/3rds of your Class Level, even with Focus Specialization, unless you have Improved Fakery, in which case your Faker Level cannot exceed 3/4ths of your Class Level.
Refocus: A Jack can have one Focus active at any time. Once per turn, as a full-round action, a Jack may switch which Focus they are using. At 5th level, switching Foci is a Standard Action.

Improved Ability Consolidation: The Jack selects one ability score. All class features they have that use an ability score now use that ability score. A Jack may only select this option if they already have Ability Consolidation.

Supreme Specialization: The Jack gains Focus Specialization as a Bonus Feat twice.
