Doll Judgement 
"Of course I'm happy living only surrounded by dolls. They never complain of anything!"-Alice Margatroid, Doll Judgement Master
HistoryLegend says the first Doll Judgement user was a merchant that sold her soul in hell to learn magic and eventualy settled in a mysterious forest after her dark master was defeated by a powerfull priestess and she had no interest in world-conquest plans. Since she had no more need for money or mortal allies, she took doll crafting as a hobby on her breaks from studying the arcane mysteries, an art she had first learned when she was still mortal. Altough she could easily craft any dolls she wanted with magic instantly, there was a certain satisfaction doing it by hand trough mundane means. It created a special connection.
After a century of this lifestyle, the magician had learned how to channel her spirit trough her dolls. They weren't exactly independent constructs and ultimely were manifestations of her own will, and thus they would answer instantly to her commands. She took particular pleasure in fighting with this unique skill the few creatures that challenged her and many stories were written and forgoten about her.
The magician never took disciples, but did abandon several of her dolls for unknown reasons, that ended up on the hands of others. Altough not all of the new doll owners had magic powers, they each were capable of stablishing a connection with the dolls and learn the Doll Judgement discipline.
Now Doll Judgement users can be found a little everywhere. Usually solitary creatures, many would question their sanity for their choice of weapon, but a Doll Judgement user rarely cares about what others think of her anyway. Their dolls are all the companionship they really need, and they don't give them few worries. They give them none.
Any creature tha hast a level of a ToB class may swap one of his availables disciplines for this one.
Key skill:Craft(doll). Doll Judgement maneuvers only work with hand-crafted dolls (no magic or magicitems involved on their creation), and thus any user of this discipline must know how to supply herself. Creating something with your own hands imbues it with a special spirit that cannot be replicated by any magic. Asking others for help on the creation process also ruins the doll for the purpose of this discipline.
New Equipment: Doll[spoiler]
Dolls are constructs two size category smaller than the creator with 1 HP and no natural armor or hardness and a special filling for a total cost 1 silver. The filling explodes when activated in the right way by a small magic trigger. This trigger is unique to each Doll crafter, so only her may make them explode.
For the purpose of Doll Judgement, dolls must be hand-crafted whitout any magic aid, be it items, spells, Su abilities, psionics and anything besides the user's own hands, mundane tools and self dedication.
They have no physical stats of their own, but Doll judgement maneuvers and stances may grant them so.
SPECIAL: If you know a Doll Judgement Strike but not a Stance from this school, you may still use the maneuvers from this school by holding the dolls directly with your hands or with real strings, in which case they count as one-handed weapons. Each such doll may have an attached one-handed weapon one size category smaller that the normal you could carry, and you may attack with the doll's weapon as if you were wielding it yourself, taking no penalties for it being smaller than you (but still taking any normal penalties for dual-wielding if you use two dolls). Alternatively you may use a single bigger doll with a two-handed weapon one size category smaller that you can carry, which takes both your arms to control. If you're in a doll judgement stance, you may not use this option.
[/spoiler]
New Feats:
Rainbow Puppeteer[spoiler]
Requisites: Must be either a sorceror or non-specialized wizard
Benefit: You may learn Doll Judgement maneuvers and stances as a wizard learns new spells of an equivalent level using martial scripts as scrolls (in the case of a sorceror you create special token-dolls that grant you the maneuvers known). You may use your CL instead of your Initiator level for Doll Judgment maneuvers and stances and the special doll feat. To use this maneuvers and stances you must prepare them in empty spell slots of an apropriate spell level, and they can only be recovered as spells are, not as maneuvers.
[/spoiler]
Special Doll[Doll Judgement, Reserve][spoiler]
Pre-requisites: Must know at least one Doll Judgement Stance.
Benefit:By spending 100 GP worth of materials and 24 hours of work you craft a doll one size category smaller than yourself of exceptional quality. You can control it trough invisible indestructible intangible strings created by your devotion to this doll, which can extend up to 10 feet per Iniator Level. You cannot have more than one special doll.
While controled it has HP equal to half of your max HP, hardness and natural armor each equal to the number of ranks you have in Craft(Doll) and all ability scores (except Con which it doesn't have being a construct) equal to your own, and a base speed of 30 feet. Its saves, Bab, proficiencies and skills are also equal to your own. It also gains a feat at 1st level and for every 3 other levels you have. The special doll cannot however get Doll Judgment stances or any feats that would grant it more creatures like Wild Cohort.
The special doll gets a fullround worth of actions at your iniative just like if it was a familiar or animal companion. You can see and hear trough it as well, and even make the special doll speak. It is fully able to perform fine manipulation and wield weapons.
You cannot enter a Doll Judgment Stance while controling your Special Doll as it demands all your pupeteering focus. You may still combine your special Doll with Doll Judgement maneuvers and stances from other schools. If the special doll is reduced to 0 HP or sacrificed, you may repair it with 50 GP worth of materials and 1 hour of work. If you cannot recover its remains, you may craft a new one with another 24 hours of work and 100 GP worth of materials. If it's just damaged, you can repair it with any maneuver that allows you to recover destroyed normal dolls, at the rate of 1d6 HP for every doll you would otherwise recover.
The special Doll benefits from any benefical spells cast on you, as well as martial stances and boosts you use as long as it is whitin your control range.
Reserve: Your doll gets stronger depending on the highest level transmutation spell you have available to cast.
[spoiler]
2nd-Special doll weapons count as magic for bypassing DR and hiting incorporeal creatures.
3rd-Special doll can fly at her base speed with good maneuverability.
4th-Special doll gains +1 competence bonus to all attack and damage rolls.
5th-Special doll gains +2 competence bonus to all attack and damage rolls.
6th-Special doll gains +3 competence bonus to all attack and damage rolls.
8th-Special doll gains +4 competence bonus to all attack and damage rolls.
9th-Special doll gains +5 competence bonus to all attack and damage rolls.
[/spoiler]
The special doll also gains the lower level effects as long as you have a transmutation spell of higher level. So for example if you had a 9th level spell available, the special doll would gain all bonus from 2nd to 9th.

Dolls automatically move with you when you move, causing attacks of oportunity as normal creatures.

The enviroment around it quickly changes into a dazzling myriad of colors and the doll releases a storm of attacks from floating weapons to energy projectiles to impossible creatures apearing to strike and then disapearing in the next moment. You feel like this will lead to no good if let out of control and quickly seal the doll again, ending the effect.
Make a Craft(Doll) check. Every oponent inside the area takes damage equal to four time the check result, and they're dazed for 1d6 rounds and blinded for 1d6 rounds afterwards. If the suceed on a Will save, they take only half damage, but they're confused for 1 round anyway as they try to figure out just what hapened. This affects even creatures immune to confusion, as long as they have some kind of senses. Allies are miracously spared.
