:smallamused: The Magi-Spawned

Warped by the magical power and experimentation of the Archmagi, the Magi-Spawned are infused with a strong, if unnatural, connection to magic.

Racial Statistics:
- Size: Medium
- Speed: 30ft.
- +2 INT, CHA, -2 STR, CON, They're intelligent and distinct, but frail and unhealthy.
- +2 bonus on all saving throws from spells and spell-like abilities (psionics, invocations, incarnum, etc.)
- Spell-like abilities: At Will: Mage-hand, Presidigitation
- Once per day, as a standard action, a Magi-Spawned may prepare to receive a spell. This requires concentration but nothing else, (so there's no external sign she may be doing this, except for her apparent inaction.) If the Magi-Spawned is the target of a spell in the next round she uses the spell as a syphon to the magical weave and draws power from it. She heals a number of hit points equal to the level of the spell multiplied by the Magi-Spawned's charisma modifier. She also gains Spell Resistance equal to 10 + the level of the spell for a number of rounds equal to her charisma modifier. She is otherwise affected normally by the spell, (though the spell it now subject to her new SR.) She may not choose to lower this SR for a harmless spell, it funtions unfalliably for the duration.
- Languages: Aparvian (common), can pick any languages ('cept secrets) as bonus languages.
- Favored Class: Sorceror


C&C welcome and encouraged.

Seems too powerful for a +0 LA but not powerful enough for a +1. The SR they get when they absorb a spell doesn't scale well at all, it gets weaker the higher level you are.

That should clear up the ability a little more and perhaps move the class closer to +0 LA. I'm not sure how to make the SR better as you prgress, though as it is you would gain more SR from a higher level spell and you are targeted by higher level spells more often as you advance.
