Name that Prestige Class!

[Tzardok]

It's the Deepwood Avenger. This reminds me that I need to get my hands somehow on Polyhedron.

How about something easier after this overly tough nut? Give me a psionic prestige class that requires ranks in Craft (Alchemy) despite having no alchemy-related class features or fluff.

Court Herald.

What class gives you a bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against creatures using armor and weapons not on the druid's proficiency list?

Though I understand that Polyhedron 142 to 148 were published by WotC, I'd like you, in the future, to specify if your intended answer isn't published in printed 1st party books or Web enhancements and to add the source, such as :
"Polyhedron magazine: What class gives you a bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls[...]?"

or

"3rd party, Dragonlance: What PrC allows you to [...]?"

If Deepwood Avenger wasn't your intended answer, please disregard this.


Anyway, new question! What prestige class gives you different abilities depending on the druidic organization the character belongs to?

Eldeen Ranger!

[Beni-Kujaku]

Eldeen Ranger!

Right! What prestige class can wear parts of a creature's body to protect themselves against creatures of the same kind?

My apologies. At the time I posted, I had been knee-deep in a project looking up obscure stuff, and frankly, wasn't really considering the difficulty of even googling for it. I will not do that again.

Anyway, that's the Leviathan Hunter from Stormwrack, right?

No problem, it's just a precaution so that the thread isn't stalled for long periods of time.

Yep! Is that an OQ?

[Forrestfire]

Yeah, OQ, I don't have one in mind right now for a followup.

This Dragon Magazine prestige class has a spell that grants it a +20 competence bonus to an arbitrary skill for 10 minutes per level.

Royal Herald, Dragon Annual #5. The spell in question is sudden mastery, a 4th-level spell from its list.


What prestige class grants a luck bonus on Escape Artist checks and comes with a sidebar referencing a Gilbert and Sullivan opera from the 1800s as an example of how it should be played? This is from a proper splatbook rather than a magazine or web source.

Outlaw of the Crimson Road.

This class lets you pledge to defeat one particular foe, granting you a bonus on attack rolls until this oath is broken. However, it's rather weird about what counts as 'breaking' the oath: moving away from the enemy is fine, attacking someone else is fine; but charging away from that enemy is not.

[Forrestfire]

That's the Complete Warrior version of Purple Dragon Knight. You know what's funny about that one? If you're staggered (and only if you're staggered), you can partial charge away from the challenged target, in spite of the normal restriction

What's a PrC that's based on a property by George R. R. Martin? This one's from Dragon, and grants Leadership as a bonus feat.

Ranger of the Night's Watch. Dragon #307. OQ

Royal Explorer.

What prestige class grants four new languages known?

Gatecrasher!

What prestige class can be taken up to eight times?

[St Fan]

Gatecrasher!

What prestige class can be taken up to eight times?

The number 8 immediately evokes something related to the schools of magic, so I was going to say Master Specialist, but I'm pretty sure the rules forbid taking more than one specialist wizard class...

[loky1109]

Maybe Animal Lord?

[Eurus]

Maybe Animal Lord?

Correct!

[loky1109]

Cool. It's OQ.

[Inevitability]

This prestige class grants proficiency with four martial and five simple weapons exactly.

Maybe a hint is in order?

[Inevitability]

Of course! It's an Eberron PrC.

[AsuraKyoko]

Sovereign Speaker! It gives proficiency with each of the favored weapons of the Sovereign Host.

This prestige class optionally (DM's discretion) gains additional random special prerequisites as you level it up.

[MornShine]

Cataclysm Mage.

This prestige class requires you to carry a non-metallic, usually non-magical item to function. (Not a weapon, armor, or shield— carry, not wield or wear.)

Is this specific item?

[MornShine]

Is this specific item?

Not a specific individual item, but a specific kind of item, yes.

[Forrestfire]

Is it Stonelord from Complete Warrior, who must carry a specific type of gemstone on them at all times?

If it is, my addition would be:

A prestige class that in 3.0 had the ability to follow up allies' attacks of opportunity with a ranged attack off-turn, but lost that ability in its 3.5 update.

Order of the Bow Initiate. OQ (assuming Stonelord was right)

Precisely!

Taking the OQ, which prestige class allows a character to arcane lock all their belongings, and animate any number of 1-HD skeletons, limited only by total spell slots devoted to the task over the character's career?
