I was kind of bored, so I made this PrC since I haven't seen anything like it yet (though one might exist :smallfrown: ). It's mostly done, though I'm thinking of adding spells or at least increasing existing spellcasting. Anyway, what do you think? This is my first PrC, so I hope its balanced.

Class Features:
Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: A Devil's Advocate does not gain any new weapon or armor proficiencies.
Forked Tongue (Su): The main attribute of a Devil's Advocate is his speech. That above all else is his greatest weapon. As a standard action, at will, a Devil's Advocate may make a Perform (Oratory) check DC 15 to daze his opponents with seductive black speech. All opponents within 60ft must make a will save, DC15+class level+charisma modifier, or become dazed for 1d4 rounds. At 3rd level, if the Perform (Oratory) check exceeds the DC by 10 or more, the opponents become enthralled as if by the Enthrall (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/enthrall.htm) spell for 1 hour per class level. At 5th level, if the Perform (Oratory) check exceeds the DC by 20 or more, the opponents become under the effect of a Geas (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/geasQuest.htm) spell or become dazed for 1 round if they succeed on the will save. This is a language dependent ability.
Seductive Speech (Ex): A Devil's Advocate gains a bonus to all Bluff, Diplomacy and Perform (Oratory) checks equal to twice his class levels against members of the opposite sex and of the same type (i.e. Humanoid, Monstrous Humanoid, etc.).
Bonus Language (Ex): A Devil's Advocate gains Infernal and Abyssal as bonus languages.
Infernal Speech (Ex): A Devil's Advocate may use his smooth talking and infernal subtly towards an outsider of any evil alignment to become one step closer towards helpful by succeeding on a Perform (Oratory) check with a DC equal to that creature's challenge rating. This is a language dependent ability.
Seductive Form (Su): A Devil's Advocate learns that to be a master manipulator, one must play at his opponent's weaknesses. By taking a full-round action, a Devil's Advocate may assume a aesthetic change to appearance to look more appealing to one sex or another of the same creature type as the Devil's Advocate. This ability grants a +20 to the Devil's Advocates disguise check and may change the effective sex of the Devil's Advocate for purposes of using Seductive Speech. Additionally, the Devil's Advocate gains a +2 circumstance bonus to all charisma checks against those of the same creature type and opposite sex as the one the Devil's Advocate is disguised as. This effect lasts for 24 hours and is usable a number of times per day equal to the Devil's Advocate's class level.
Tongues (Ex): A Devil's Advocate can understand and speak all languages as if under the effects of the Tongues (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/tongues.htm) spell.
Chilling Speech (Su): When it is necessary, a Devil's Advocate can use his power of speech to cause his opponents physical pain. As a standard action usable a number of times per day equal to the Devil's Advocate's class level plus his charisma modifier, the Devil's Advocate may make a Perform (Oratory) check DC 20 to deal 3d8 non-lethal damage +1d8 per class level to all opponents within 60ft, will save for half DC15+class level+charisma modifier.
Serpent's Form: A Devil's Advocate understands how to seduce even those of alien nature, supported by his infernal gifts. When using his Seducing Form ability, the Devil's Advocate may disguise himself as any other creature type to gain the benefits against those creatures where they apply (i.e. creatures such as oozes, plants, and undead that are not effected by a member of the opposite sex or just do not have one are not effected).
