Chosen flame,

a obtained weapon a Forged of flames weapon.

optional feather to add* The Ash kinetic may fly at their land speed

themselves and will be summonable as a standard action.

modifier you get a +10 Intimidate bonus,This ability is surpressed when in a altered form. Clothing and objects on person
will not resize or burn away.

Ashcoat
The Ash Kinetic is now Immune to fire damage of all kinds *anything that bypasses fire immunity still affects*



Rise from the Ashes
Once per month a Ash Kineticist may rise from a designated location *Must have been their once* after death.
The Kineticistwill appear at their selected place with non of their previous possessions from death, anyone around the
site of rising will take 2d10 dammage from a burst of flames *Ashes must be present at the sight*.


Rain of the Phoenix
Once a day the Ash Kineticist may unleash a rain of Fire on everyone within 100 feet of the Ash Kineticist for 20d20
damage, if the phoenix rain is focused on one creature, a pillar of fire attacks down on the creature for 40d20 damage.
The AshKineticist choses who will be affected by this, Rain of the Phoenix bypasses fire reduction and downgrades fire
immunity to 25% decrease in damage, No save, wooden objects become engulfed flame.



Phoenix feats

Phoenix Arc,

Preresquites Phoenixfire 2d6/4

Roll damage for one Phoenix fire, you may split the blast for 2 enemys at half damage each. A single blast may be
richoceted off a wall to hit a enemy. The arc is random and can possibly hit the character throwing it. roll a 1d6
1:ricochet hits character.
2: make a attack roll -double the ac of the creature attempted to be hit-
3: attack roll 1.5x ac
4: attack roll at 1.25x ac
5: attack roll at ac
6: attack roll as if target is flatfooted

I really need critics, and feat ideas.

at first glance, this seems pretty cool, nice abilities, i love the whole focus on the phoenix, though i think that the BAB should be as a Clerics instead of a Wizards. and what exactly is the BLood of the Phoenix template?

Im going to add it depending on if I feel its worth it by the crtics, Im still thinking on the full focus of the template.

It's interesting, but I can't really understand it because it's terribly disorganized. Could you table it?

Haven't looked over it well yet, but wouldn't a single level dip into this basically give the character a free flaming weapon? The orphan of the flames sounds interesting, but it's a little confusing (at least to me) to read. Rain of the Phoenix doesn't seem to be listed in the table. Is it meant to be Blood of the Phoenix? Also, it seems rather strong. Once/day and able to kill just about anything out there? I know you don't get it until your enemies are really high powered, but it still seems a bit powerful.

I don't think it's too powerful overall, although I"m not the best person to ask. I really do like this idea. I think it would help if you organized it a little more, but I'm not at all organized myself so...

Once again, I do like it, I just feel it needs to be cleaned up slightly.

well heres the thing, its worth it to dip further in the class then one level, since the orphan is a burden until the Orphans destiny, where you can ride it as a MM2 phoenix, you lose the powers from the class, meaning it dies you are instantly unarmed. And yah a typo the blood of the phoenix that was supposed to be rain

I should of made it clearer, the template doesnt exist yet. Still balancing the main thing before I get into adding more power.

I improved my class by alot, I need alot of feat Ideas, no table but its not much of a problem. I think its kinda balanced now.
