Wintersoul
"I wouldn't make him angry, unless your fond of the cold that is. "- Wilson Brightsword, Human Paladin.
Characteristics
Wintersouls are individuals with the ability to call upon and command snow to assist them in combat or day to day life.
Wintersouls can heal their allies while hindering their foes in combat while creating sheets of ice to traverse rivers and breaking large sheets of ice into snow to create tools and weapons from for them and their allies.
Adventurers
Wintersouls travel for a verity of reasons some seek to improve their skills while others travel to find wealth some travel to meet new people. Oddly enough most don't like the cold and prefer warmer climates yet still hold a fascination for snow and ice and are in search for a place where ice can exist in warm conditions without melting. Although some just travel for its own sake.
Alignment
As Wintersouls tend to spend most of their time wandering for one reason or another they tend toward chaotic alignment this is not required as they can be of any alignment.
Religeon
Most Wintersouls revere Trease the god of frost but this not always the case some worship Hled and others whorhip no gods at all.
Background
Wintersouls usually come from colder reigons where it is difficult to grow crops and hunting is common practice others come from crews out at sea where there controll over snow and ice was invaluable and some even come from simple farming communities in the warmer reigons of the world.
Races
Humans and Gnomes make up a large majority of Winter souls as theese races have the adaptibility to appreceate the versatility this class provides. halflings also make up a precentage of wintersouls. orcs and half orcs tend to be a bit too slow to consider the class and dwarves tend to be too rigid.
Other classes
Wintersouls appreciate the protection barbarian or other martial class can provide and are happy to travel with members of those classes who don't have conflicting personalities with themselves. Wintersouls also appreciate the help of bards who's nature tend to compliment their own. Monks don't provide much to the table as far as Wintersouls are concerned but they can make good traveling companions. Sorcerers can get along with wintersouls as well as they get along with wizards who get along with wintersouls as they would sorcerers.
Role
Wintersouls can fill just about any other roll than tank or trapfinder in a party but most will use their abilities to bolster their allies and hinder their foes.
Class skills
Appraise, bluff, concentration, craft, diplomacy, escape artist, gather information, heal, hide, intimidate, knowledge(arcarna), knowledge (geography), knowledge (nature), listen, move silently, profession, search, sense motive, spot, survival.
skill points, (4+int modifier)
abilities
Intelligence is a must for Wintersouls as it increases the amount of healing they can provide as well as granting bonus skill points constitution comes second to make up for their relitive weakness in combat.
