The Harbringer, The Celestial Bladelord, and a host of feats.

[Westhart]

So, not 100% done, but I'd like some PEACHing. Have some problems filling in a couple of dead levels, so suggestions there are always welcome. While this can be used to make the Paladin a prestige class, and as a rework of the blackguard the bladelord is not necessarily a rework of the paladin and can be used with one (although if you like Paladin's Grod did a much better one then Wizards did ) and takes any focus off of spellcasting to be replaced with mostly combat ability. So, here we go:

The Harbringer

Hit Die: d12

Requirements
To qualify to become a Harbringer, a character must fulfill all of the following criteria.
Alignment: Any Evil
Base Attack Bonus: +5
Feats: Any 3 vile feats, any 3 fighter bonus feats
Skills: Knowledge (Religion) 2 ranks

Class Skills: The class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are

Skill Points at Each Level: 6 + Int modifier

10th	+10	+3	+7	+7	Archfiend's Blessings, Fiendish Decadence	+1 Fighter Feat

Class Features
All of the following are class features of the Harbringer.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Harbringer gains no new proficiencies with either weapons or armor.

Bonus Feats: At every odd level the Harbinger may select one vile feat. At every even level the Harbringer may select a fighter bonus feat. They must meet the prerequisites for these feats.
Special: The Harbringer may select Martial Stance and Martial study as many times as they wish with their fighter bonus feats, however when doing so they can choose only from the Shadow Hand, White Raven, and Devoted Spirit Disciplines. If they take it with a feat not granted from this class they use the usual limitations, and they do not need to choose from the available disciplines.


Rebuke: A Harbringer rebukes creatures with an evil alignment, and turns creatures of good alignment as a cleric of his level. If the Harbringer could already rebuke undead (or other creatures) the levels stack with other classes that grant it to determine effective rebuking level.

Rollin' with the Devil (Ex): The Harbringer never automatically fails on a roll of one and a number of times per day equal to their wisdom modifier they may count a roll as its inverse, such as a 1 as a 20, 2 as 19, and so on. The ability to invert a roll may be used once every 1d4 rounds.

Archfiends Blessings: The Harbinger gains several powers from the most powerful of fiends, and at each even level he may select one of the below abilities. An ability can not be selected more then once unless it states so.

• Energy Immunity (Ex): The Harbinger is exposed through countless trials in his training, granting him immunity to an energy type of his choice (fire, cold, acid, sonic, electricity).
  Special: This may be selected more then once.
• Archfiend's Inner Constitution (Ex): You add your wisdom modifier to HP gained at each level, and you are immune to poison and disease, although you can still act as a carrier if you wish. Once the choice to act as a carrier is decided it can not be changed, except through magical means (such as remove disease) although you can acquire the disease again if you so wish.
• Unholy Weaponry (Su):: Any weapon you wield (along with your natural weapons) has the unholy property. In addition the weapon deals additional vile damage equal to your wisdom modifier, to a max of ½ your class level. At 5th level or any higher level this gives the unholy burst property.
• Soul Grasp (Su): You can physically trap the soul of a foe, that you slay in melee, in an item on your person. This works similar to a thinuan weapon, except it can be any item on your person. Note that breaking the item releases the soul trapped within. If you are using a Thinuan weapon then the soul is instead taken into the weapon, and you may have a number of soul’s captured equal to your wisdom modifier. If you are slain you can choose for your soul to go into any item on your person.
• Undead Traits, Minor (Ex) The Harbinger gains some of the traits associated with undead. He gains immunity to dazing, stunning and is healed by negative energy.
• Undead Traits, Major (Ex): The Harbringer gains the Undead type, with all the benefits thereof. Do not recalculate Base Saves, Base Attack Bonus or Skills. Recalculate HP (keep in mind all become d12's). In addition you can be resurrected and if so you come back as undead instead of a living creature, and you have turn resistance equal to your wisdom modifier.
  Special: You must have Undead Traits, Minor to select Undead Traits, Major.
• Archfiend's Embodiment (Ex): You gain a +2 profane bonus to your physical ability scores (Constitution, Strength, Dexterity).
• Archfiend's Dark Thoughts (Ex): You gain a +2 profane bonus to your mental ability scores (Wisdom, Charisma, Intelligence).
• Capture the Soul (Su): Once per year you may select a strike that kills a foe to capture the foe's soul in an item on his person. The person can not be resurrected etc until the item is used to store a different soul (displacing the old) or it is destroyed.
• Master of Rituals (Ex):[/b] When using the sacrifice rules (BoVD) you add your level+wisdom modifier to all checks, and if you don't make a high enough check for your choens gift you can instead take one that you did meet the DC for, although you can not gain dark craft xp or gold with this ability.

Representative of the Abyss (Sp): You may cast the spells of the evil and destruction domains as spell like abilities a number of times per day equal to 1/2 your class level. Your caster level for this effect is your class level +wisdom modifier and you use wisdom for any saves that these spell like abilities would offer. The highest spell you can cast is equal to your class level-1, so that at 2nd level you can use inflict light wounds or protection from good 1/day. You also gain the domain powers of these domains. Your caster level for these spell like abilities is your character level+wisdom modifier.

Path to Hel (Su): The Harbringer may shift to any evil aligned plane as an immediate action. This ability works as greater planeshift. This ability can only be used every 1d4 rounds.

Rally the Damned (Ex): Once per encounter the Harbringer may rally any undead creature or any creature with the [Evil] subtype within level*10’. Such creatures become immune to turning, and gain temporary hit points equal to the harbinger's level+wisdom modifier. In addition all spells cast on evil creatures that are beneficial to them heal them a number of points equal to your wisdom score, and all spells/attacks/etc against enemies deal 2d4 additional points of vile damage.

Immortality (Ex): The Harbringer no longer ages, and he is immune to natural diseases (but not supernatural one such as Mummy's rot). Some rumor this is from him "eating" souls although sources are not clear... and a Harbringer wouldn't say either way.

Preclaimed (Ex): The Harbringer is immune to any effects that would affect his soul, whether mundane or magical (Thinuan weapons etc) and his soul can not be destroyed or harmed. He is immune to any alignment based effect unless it would be beneficial to him (such as the auras of some outsiders). In addition he may make a special attack a number of times per day equal to his wisdom modifier; any good creature struck by it can not heal (magically or not) for 1 hour/level unless they are in a consecrated/hallow area. In addition they take a number of points of damage each round equal to your wisdom score for 2d4 rounds.

Damning Blades (Su): Your attacks now overcome all damage reduction and regeneration of a good creature or a creature with the good subtype.

Slayer's Grace (Su): Whenever you attack a creature you gain some benefits:
1) If the creature has less HP then your wisdom score you slay it in a single stroke, although it may make a fortitude save (10+1/2 Damage) to resist this effect. Note that a successful save does not mean the creature won't die from other means, he just resists the auto-death.
2) When you fight a creature with at least a challenge rating 5 higher than you, and slay it you may drain them slightly. You gain a +1 to a random stat that was lower then you enemy's, and your enemy takes a -1 to a random stat, that was higher then yours, (which since they are dead only takes effect if they are resurrected). You can use this ability once per day, and when you do you can not be suffering from ability drain/damage/burn or negative levels. The bonus is permanent.

Fiendish Decadence: Your type changes to outsider, and you gain the evil and native subtypes. In addition whenever an effect would require you to be a certain evil aligned creature type you act as if you are of the required race. This is an extraordinary ability. In addition you gain DR/Good equal to your level+wisdom modifier. You also add all vile spells (BoVD) to your Representative of the Abyss ability and take no damage for using them.

Thinking making it per 1/encounter (becoming 2/encounter at 5th and so on) instead of day.

Divinity Incarnate: The Bladelord is imbued with the essemce of the heavens, and every even level they may select one of the abilities below.

• Holy Weaponry (Su): Any weapon you wield is treated as having the holy property.
  Note: I have to ask, is there a consecrated damage (good version of vile damage?)
• Free the Soul (Su): Once per year per point of wisdom of modifier you have you may free a soul from an effect that has captured it, whether it be trap the soul or a thinuan weapon or any other effect.

[*]Champion of the Heavens (Sp): You may cast the spells on the war and good domains as spell like abilities a number of times per day equal to 1/2 your level. Your caster level for this effect is your class level +wisdom modifier and you use wisdom for any saves. The highest spell you can cast is equal to your level-1, so that at 2nd level you can use magic weapon or protection from evil once per day. You also gain the domain powers of these domains, if applicable.

Stairway to Heaven (Sp): The Bladelord may shift to any plane that is good aligned as an immediate action. This ability works as planeshift although there is no off destination arrival, and this ability can only be used every 1d4 rounds.

Call of the Heavens (Su): The Bladelord may rally all allies once per encounter, whether it be to defend an indefensible location or for one last charge. All allies with 20'/level gain an enhancement bonus to strength, constitution and dexterity equal to 1/2 the Bladelord's level and temporary hit points equal to his level+wisdom modifier. They also gain immunity to fear. The effects of this ability last until the beginning of the Bladelord's next turn, and works on all allies out to 60'.

Immortal Blade (Ex): The heavens have gifted the Celestial Bladelord with immortality. He will never die of old age, and he is immune to natural diseases (but not ones such as Mummy's rot).

Righteousness (Ex): The Celestial Bladelord is immune to any effects that would affect his soul, whether mundane or magical (Thinuan weapons etc) and his soul can not be destroyed or harmed. He is immune to any alignment based effect unless it would be beneficial to him (such as blasphemy). In addition he may make a special attack a number of times per day equal to his wisdom modifier; any evil creature struck by it can not heal (magically or not) for 1 hour/level unless they are in a desecrated/unhallow area. In addition they take a number of points of damage each round equal to your wisdom score for 2d4 rounds.

How's that for smiting eh?

Righteous Blade (Su): Against creatures who are evil, weapons you wield (and your natural attacks) have their threat range increased by 1/4 your level. This stacks with (but is never doubled by) effects such as keen and improved critical. In addition your weapons are always treated as holy weapons.

Mettle: If the bladelord makes a fortitude or will save against an effect that normally has a partial effect on a successful save she instead takes no effect.

Shield of the Divine (Ex): The Bladelord gains DR/evil and equal to his level and spell resistance eqaul to 10+1/2 level+wisdom modifier. This stacks with similar Damage reduction and with other spell resistance.

Blade of the Heavens (Su): Any time you hit an evil creature it must make a fortitude save or be destroyed (DC: 10+1/2 Level+wisdom modifier); the DC for creatures with the evil subtype save against DC: 10+level+wisdom modifier.

Celestial Incarnate (Ex): Your type changes to outsider, and you gain the angel, good, and native subtypes. In addition whenever an effect (such as some exalted spells) would require you to be a certain good aligned creature (such as an eladrin) you act as if you are of the required race. This is an extraordinary ability. In addition you gain DR/Good equal to your level+wisdom modifier. You also add all sanctified (BoED) spells to your Champion of the Heavens ability and take no damage for using them.

Suppose this could be exalted, in which case flip everything around, and for a name... "Redeem the Damned"?

[ImperatorV]

I like these. They would both be very fun and thematic on a good or evil fighter/crusader. Some things:

You're missing the class skills for both classes.

It's impossible for non-humans to qualify for these classes at level 6 without flaws or getting a bonus feat from somewhere (assuming fighter4/something1 entry - non-fighters have it even worse). Non-humans who aren't creative with their build will be stuck entering at level 7 - just a little thing to note. Not sure if you need to do anything about it.

Sacred Mount references Knight level, but Fierce Mount uses character level. I think this might be a mistake. If it was intended to be restricted to Knights I'd advise changing that - a lot of characters can get some use out of a free flying mount.

The new exalted feats seem to stack with vow of poverty bonuses, which I like because VoP needs all the help it can get. Notably, with the bonuses VoP gives to AC plus Armor of Conviction and Divinity Incarnate, it's possible for a character to get some very silly numbers for their AC and Saves.

EDIT: More things.

Stairway to Heaven and Path to Hel: I notice you can't get back to the material plane with this. Is this intentional?

Dead levels: Giving Celestial/Fiendish characters wings is traditional, and martial characters need a source of flight anyway.

Yeah, got to go add those

Eh it was meant for a fighter entry in mind... Maybe knock them down to 2 of each, and add a knowledge (religion) requirement?

That was a mistake, I will go fix them.

I always forget VoP, I'll go look over some things and try to balance it out.

Yes, it was intentional .

Hmm, that's a good idea... Although I do hate the iconic winged paladin idea

[Goaty14]

Uh, removed I guess...

[Westhart]

Finally got Goaty's comments worked in, so yeah

[Goaty14]

I forget the name (or if I have already said this) but does corpse muncher allow the subject (the eater) to catch <insert that one disease associated with handling dead bodies here>? Or is that the reason it has a Fort +4 requirement

Yeah, you mentioned filth fever, so I added the save requirement. THus you want to eat dead bodies you deal with the consequences Mr Lecter
