Any class, feat, template etc etc explicitly baded on roses? Even flower would be ok if easily reskinnable.

Uh, knight of the Rose? Full casting, full BAB, needs levels in two other hard to enter prestige classes that are considerably worse to enter.

Dragonlance setting guide has two Prestige Classes; Knight of the Rose, and Knight of the Lily.

EDIT: Whoops. Saw the other posts now. That's what happens when I start writing and get distracted by something else before I finish the post. xD

Rose-themed stuff?

There might be some third-party stuff, if that is alright?

If we're naming monsters, nominate the dread blossom swarm from MMIII (there's a giantitp post about using symbiotic with it for fun and profit) and the bloodthorn from Fiend Folio. You may also like the topiary guardian template or woodling template from MMIII.

In b4 Petal, the miniature race.Petals are great beacause Pixies are fun but +4 LA isn't. Petals lose the invisibility but have enough stat mods to still be fun characters.

Anyway, a few rosey spells:

Sleep uses Rose petals as a material component. Reminded me of Wizard of Oz, except that was poppies.

Brambles makes spikes "like rose thorns" grow on a wooden weapon.

Poison Thorns is a 5th level druid spell. It's an upgraded Thornskin. It describes you growing rose-like thorns.

Rain of Roses is Druid 7. It makes Roses fall from the sky and wis-damage evil people in an 80' radius cylinder. If they're unable to exit quickly, you can knock them down to 0 wis in a few rounds.

Rosemantle is a crappy first-level spell that delays poison and raises pain tolerance for R/L.

Armor of Thror (Dragon #323) Fashioned from solid gold with many intricate patterns etched into the metal, these suits hold Thror's heraldic symbol upon the breastplate: the face of a mighty boar holding a rose between its clenched teeth.
Dragathil (Player's Guide to Faerūn) This slightly curved rapier is sized for Medium creatures. It has a row of small rubies down the center of the blade and a large basket hilt in the form of roses twined around three harps.
Golden Chalice of Lathander (Magic of Faerūn) This pure gold chalice is finely worked and bears the symbol of a sun rising upon a blooming rose.
Rose of Kings (Dragon #289) - chalice in the form of beautiful rose, with Zone of Truth effect on a drinker for a hour
Rose Prince (Dragon #299) - a toy; wearer of "linked" ring within 100' of the doll protected by effect of Holy Aura spell
Thornblade (Dragon #326) When drawn, a number of barbed rosebush-like thorns instantly spring from the flat of its emerald-sheened blade.

Creatures:
Bloodrose (Denizens of Dread)
Crystal Sunflower (https://web.archive.org/web/20130531124415/http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/psb/20040521b) - not a rose, but still a flower
Sleeping Blossom Sprites (https://web.archive.org/web/20130531122941/http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/fey/20040718a) - also mentioned morning rose mallow sprite
Thorn (Monster Manual III) Thorns get their name from the unusual longswords they carry, which are made of thorns from carefully cultivated, enormous rose bushes in the faerie courts.
Tri-Flower Frond (The Tome of Horrors I, Revised)
Vampire Rose (The Tome of Horrors I, Revised)
Vampire Rose Bush (Dungeon #84)

Feat:

Thanks for the responses, still feels like not a lot but it's something. Also love someone's citing stuff from ravenloft books, they often get forgotten in the long list of unknown 3e wotc licensed products.
P.S. sorry for the late response

Sheylin is a Pathfinder/Golarian deity of love, family and art that uses a rose in her heraldry.

As such a bunch of rose themed things exist.

PRC Rose Warden is a Sheylin PRC. Black Thorn Knights also use a rose motif, no relation.

All fo these items have roses engraved in them or otherwise incorporated and/or have rose-related effects.

Boots of the Eternal Rose
Rose Knight's blade
Rosewood armor (literally armor spikes made of living rose thorns that need watering)
Everbloom thorn (a mace that disguises itself as a rose pedant)
Roseskin Comb (used to cast thornskin on yourself)
Rosy Hauberk (chain shirt with flowers woven in that makes you look sexy, even if you aren't)
Mithril Rose



A lot of spells have roses or rose petals as material components, even more can use them as such (eg, any flower petal)

Easiest solution imho is the feat: Spell Thematics from the Player's Guide to Faerun (IIRC).

Speaking of PF, there’s Milani, the lesser goddess of devotion, hope, and uprisings. Her obedience involves meditating among roses planted yourself, and her symbol is a rose growing in bloody cobblestones.

Her future within the lore of Golarion is likely going to change soon given her association with Halflings in Cheliax and a particular kind of uprising. She’ll probably just become a goddess of revolutions completely and lose the other association.
