Eberron in Pathfinder
« on: May 17, 2011, 10:57:17 AM »
Also viewable in wiki form: http://pf-eberron.wikidot.com/

This work assumes that you possess a copy of the Eberron Campaign Setting 3.5, as well as the Pathfinder rules. Eberron material which is not covered here should be assumed to use the mechanics from the ECS.

Significant changes:
  • Dragonmarks are attained through the Eldritch HeritageUM feat chain or sorcerer levels (with the new House Member trait for support). Some dragonmarks have different skills to accomodate the new skill system - otherwise half of them would have Perception. Siberys marks are simply the category after Greater, and do not follow different rules. Due to the new structure, dragonmarks grant more spells but only from levels 1-9; powers which were cantrips can be accessed through the Advanced Dragonmark feat.
  • Changelings can shift around their stats along with their appearance.
  • Kalashtar can choose alternate powers in place of mindlink.
  • Shifting is far more customisable. As in, there are 2560 possible kinds before adding feats. It follows the PF "rounds per day" pattern, but it's possible to keep it up longer by spending actions. Also, gorebrute is more usable. Weretouched Master is a feat.
  • Warforged can have any kind of plating they want, or none at all. Also rocket fists.

+2 to one ability score: Changelings gain a +2 bonus to one ability score chosen at creation, to represent their varied nature.
Medium: Changelings are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Normal Speed: Changelings have a base speed of 30 feet.
Minor Change Shape (Su): A changeling may change his appearance as a full-round action. This functions as the disguise self spell, except that it is a transmutation effect which affects the changeling's body but not his possessions, and lasts until he changes his appearance again or dies. As part of using this ability, a changeling may change the ability score to which he receives a racial bonus.
Deceptive: A changeling gains a +2 bonus to Bluff, Intimidate, Linguistics and Sense Motive checks.
Slippery: A changeling gains a +2 bonus on saves against sleep and charm effects.

Halfling Dinosaur Cultists

Dreamless: Kalashtar do not dream when they sleep, and are immune to any effect which influences dreams. However, their natural recovery rate for mental ability damage is halved (i.e. a kalashtar would require two days to restore 1 point of lost Wisdom, rather than one). This does not hinder magical healing, such as restoration effects.

Shifter
Quote
Humanoid (shapechanger)
-2 Cha: In many ways the shifter mindset is closer to that of an animal than a humanoid.

Normal Speed: Shifters have a base speed of 30 feet.
Low-light vision: Shifters can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light.
Damage Reduction: Shifters gain damage reduction 1/silver.
Wild Empathy: Shifters can use wild empathy as a 1st-level druid. This stacks with any other wild empathy they may gain.
Shifting: A shifter can take on bestial traits as a free action, taking a -2 penalty to Int but also gaining a +2 bonus to two other ability scores chosen at 1st level. He may spend a total number of rounds per day shifted equal to 3 + his Con modifier, +1 for every level after 1st and +1 for every [Shifter] feat he possesses. Any round in which the shifter takes a move action to concentrate does not count against this daily limit.
Razorclaw: While shifting you gain 2 claws as secondary natural weapons, dealing 1d4 damage +1 damage for every four character levels.
Athletic: A shifter gains a +2 bonus to Acrobatics and Climb checks.

Alternate racial traits
Quote
The following traits may replace Razorclaw or one of the ability score boosts gained while shifting.
Beasthide: While shifting you gain a +2 bonus to natural armor. If you gain this ability a second time the bonus increases by an additional +2.
Beastmind: You do not take a penalty to Intelligence while shifting, and may apply one of the ability score boosts from shifting to Intelligence. If you gain this ability a second time you may expend 1 round of shifting as a full-round action to change your remaining shifter trait to any other shifter trait; if you later gain additional shifter traits they remain fixed.
Cliffwalk: While shifting you gain a climb speed equal to half your land speed. If you gain this ability a second time your climb speed becomes equal to your land speed.
Dreamsight: While shifting you gain the benefits of a speak with animals spell and a +2 bonus on wild empathy checks. In addition, Handle Animal is always a class skill for you. If you gain this ability a second time then while shifting you also gain Skill Focus (Perception) as a bonus feat and may spend a swift action to gain the benefits of see invisibility for 1 round.
Gorebrute: While shifting you gain a set of horns as a primary natural weapon, dealing 1d6 damage +1 damage for every four character levels. You may only use these horns as part of a charge. If you do not attack with any other weapons as part of this charge, your horns deal double damage. If you gain this ability a second time then once per round when you damage a creature with your horns you may make a trip attempt against them as a free action.
Longstride: While shifting you gain a +10ft bonus to land speed. If you gain this ability a second time the bonus increases by an additional +10ft.
Longtooth: While shifting you gain a bite as a primary natural weapon, dealing 1d6 damage +1 damage for every four character levels.  If you gain this ability a second time then any living creature damaged by your bite attack also takes 1 point of Constitution damage.
Razorclaw: If you gain this ability a second time then you can make two claw attacks at the end of a charge at your highest attack bonus (plus the +2 bonus for charging).
Swiftwing: While shifting you gain a fly speed equal to half your land speed with average maneuverability. You may not use your hands for anything while flying, though they may still carry objects. In addition, Fly is always a class skill for you. If you gain this ability a second time your fly speed becomes equal to your land speed, its maneuverability becomes good, and you gain a +4 bonus on Fly checks even while not shifting.
Truedive: While shifting you gain a swim speed equal to your land speed, and a +8 bonus on Swim checks. In addition you may hold your breath for a number of rounds equal to 5x your Consititution score, even while not shifting. If you gain this ability a second time your swim speed increases by +10ft and you do not take penalties on melee attacks underwater.
Wildhunt: While shifting you gain the Scent ability. In addition, Survival is always a class skill for you. If you gain this ability a second time then while shifting you also gain blindsense 30ft.

Totemist: Add +1/4 to the totemist's essentia pool.
Wilder: The wilder gains 1 bonus power point.

Warforged
Quote
Construct (living construct)
+2 Con, -2 Wis, -2 Cha: Warforged are sturdy, but were created with little sense of personal identity.
Medium: Warforged are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Normal Speed: Warforged have a base speed of 30 feet.
Light Fortification: Whenever a sneak attack or critical hit is scored against a warforged, there is a 25% chance that the extra damage is negated and damage is rolled normally.
Composite Body: Warforged bodies are composed of stone, metal and wood, and thus are vulnerable to effects which target creatures composed of these substances, like heat metal, repel wood, and the rust monster's rusting touch. Spells which target objects only (such as stone shape) have no effect on a warforged.
Slam: Warforged gain a slam attack as a primary natural weapon, dealing 1d4 points of damage.
Focused Training: Warforged gain a +2 bonus to one skill, and treat that skill as a class skill for all classes.
Endurance: Warforged receive Endurance as a bonus feat. Note that living constructs do not eat, drink or breathe, and cannot become fatigued.
Plating: Warforged bodies are usually fitted with reinforced plating which replicates one type of mundane armor. The choice of whether to fit a warforged with such plating is made at 1st level, after which it cannot be added or removed. The warforged does not need to pay for this plating any more than a human needs to pay for their skin, and it does not count against his encumbrance (though it may still reduce his speed). Due to its integration with its wearer, plating is treated as masterwork armor; in addition its arcane spell failure is reduced by 10% and its Armor Check Penalty by 2, while its maximum Dex bonus is increased by 1. Plating may not be constructed of special materials unless you select the appropriate [Warforged] feat at 1st level, though you may have it enchanted afterwards (the warforged must be present at all times while his body is enchanted).

Alternate racial traits
Quote
Body Double: Rather than combat, the warforged was created to resemble a specific creature of the same size category. He gains a +10 racial bonus on Disguise checks made to impersonate that creature. If the warforged has Plating he appears to be wearing normal armor, though it cannot be removed. This disguise bonus is reduced to +8 if the warforged is injured, and to +2 if he is reduced to 0 hp. Some warforged of this type are capable of sleeping, though they do not require it. This ability replaces Light Fortification.
Integrated Weapon: One of the warforged's hands is replaced by a weapon, which cannot be disarmed or sundered. He is automatically proficient with this weapon; if he was already proficient then he gains Weapon Focus as a bonus feat for weapons of this type, but only gains its benefits while wielding that specific weapon. If the integrated weapon is a two-handed weapon, he must still use his second hand to help wield it. If it is a throwing weapon then he may detach and reattach the limb freely, and it can be sundered while separate. Unlike his plating, the warforged must purchase this weapon normally at 1st level. If you wish you may replace each hand with a weapon, or two ends of a double weapon. This ability replaces Slam.
Jaws of Death: The warforged gains a bite attack as a primary natural weapon, dealing 1d6 damage with a critical threat range of 20/x3. This ability replaces Slam and Light Fortification.
Prototype: The warforged does not take a racial penalty to Charisma, but takes a -1 penalty to AC. This ability replaces Focused Training.
Psiforged: The warforged's body is covered in crystal growths which resonate with psychic power, granting Wild Talent as a bonus feat. If the warforged takes levels in a psionic class, he instead gains the Psionic Talent feat. When a psiforged takes a level in a favored class, he can choose to gain an additional power point instead of a hit point or skill point. In addition, he may use his Constitution score to determine bonus power points in place of his primary manifesting score if higher. The warforged's body is considered to be made of stone, wood, metal and crystal, making him vulnerable to shatter and similar effects. This ability replaces the normal warforged bonus to Constitution.
Second Slam: The warforged gains two slam attacks rather than one. This ability replaces Slam and Light Fortification.
Scout Model: The warforged's size is reduced to Small, and he gains +2 Dex and -2 Str. In addition he gains a +2 bonus to one of Acrobatics, Climb, Fly, Perception or Swim, and treats that skill as a class skill for all classes. This ability replaces Focused Training.
Trained Fist: The warforged gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. If he already possesses that feat his unarmed strike deals damage as if he were one size category larger, as with the Improved Natural Attack feat. This ability replaces Slam.

Favoured Class bonuses
Alchemist: Add +1/2 to bomb damage.
Armiger: The armiger gains +1/6 of a new armiger talent.
Barbarian: Add +1/2 to damage against Constructs and objects.
Fighter: Add +1 to the fighter's CMD when resisting a bull rush or dirty trick.
Gunslinger (Gun Tank archetype): The gunslinger gains +1/3 points of grit.
Magus: Add a +1/3 bonus on concentration checks, and on critical hit confirmation rolls with the magus's Spellstrike class feature (maximum bonus of +4 for the latter). This bonus does not stack with Critical Focus.
Paladin: The paladin gains +1/4 DR/adamantine.

Classes
See also "Classes in the World" in the Misc section.

Cavalier
Bone Knight (archetype)
[spoiler]Mount: Any mount called by a Bone Knight gains the skeletal champion template, except that it does not gain extra HD, has no Intelligence score (and therefore no skills, feats or tricks) and cannot be turned while ridden by the cavalier. This ability modifies, but does not replace, the cavalier's normal mount ability.

Order of the Bone Knight
Quote
Edicts: The cavalier must devote himself to protecting Karrnath and its people. He must obey the commands of King Kaius without question. He must strive to improve Karrnath's reputation and the organisation of its undead forces.
Some bone knights serve the Order of the Emerald Claw, and instead swear allegiance to Vol.

Challenge: Whenever an order of the bone knight cavalier issues a challenge, his allies receive a +1 circumstance bonus on damage rolls against the target of his challenge whenever he is threatening the target. This bonus increases by +1 for every four levels the cavalier possesses.

Skills: An order of the bone knight adds Knowledge (religion) (Int) and Knowledge (nobility) (Int) to his list of class skills. An order of the bone knight cavalier can make Knowledge (religion) skill checks untrained. If he has ranks in the skill, he receives a bonus on the check equal to 1/2 his cavalier level (minimum +1) when the check involves undead.

Order Abilities: A cavalier belonging to the order of the bone knight gains the following abilities as he increases in level.

Channel Negative Energy (Su): At 2nd level the cavalier gains the ability to channel negative energy as an evil cleric of his class level, regardless of his alignment. If he possesses the ability to channel energy from another source (even indirectly, such as via a paladin's lay on hands) it changes to channel negative energy.

Bonecraft (Ex): At 8th level the cavalier is capable of crafting bonecraft weapons and armor. These items function as steel items of the same kind, except that they are non-metallic (and thus immune to effects such as chill metal and a rust monster's touch) and can only be used by a character with the ability to craft them. Bonecraft weapons deal +1d6 damage to living creatures (ranged weapons bestow this property on their projectiles). Bonecraft armor grants the wearer a +4 bonus on Intimidate checks, and DR/bludgeoning based on its weight (DR 1 for light, 2 for medium or 3 for heavy, +1 for every four levels thereafter). After they have been crafted, these items may be enchanted as normal. If he activates the Armor of Bones oracle revelation while wearing bonecraft armor, the bonuses from that ability are halved (round up) but stack with those provided by his armor.

Exoskeleton of Undeath (Ex): At 15th level the cavalier's bonecraft armor fuses to his body, and cannot be removed without killing him. He gains immunity to death effects, disease, paralysis, poison, sleep, stunning, ability penalties, ability damage, ability drain, energy drain, fatigue, exhaustion and nonlethal damage. If he is already undead his turn resistance increases by +4.
This replaces the cavalier's normal choice of an order.

Bone March: At 4th level the cavalier gains the ability to assume control of animated undead from a willing caster as a standard action. He must be within 60ft of both the caster and the undead to assume control. He may command a total number of Hit Dice of undead equal to double his class level, but may not control any individual undead creature with more Hit Dice than his class level. This ability replaces the cavalier's normal expert trainer ability.

Banner of Undeath (Ex): At 5th level, the cavalier becomes better able to direct his undead comrades. As long as the cavalier's banner is clearly visible, all allies within 60 feet receive +2 turn resistance and a +1 bonus on damage rolls against living creatures. At 10th level, and every five levels thereafter, these bonuses increase by +1. The banner must be at least Small or larger and must be carried or displayed by the cavalier or his mount to function. This ability replaces the cavalier's normal banner ability.

Bonus Feat: At 6th level, and at every six levels thereafter, in place of a bonus feat the cavalier may gain an oracle revelation from the Bones mystery (using his cavalier level in place of his oracle level). This ability modifies, but does not replace, the cavalier's normal bonus feat ability.

Greater Banner of Undeath (Ex): At 14th level, the cavalier's ability to command undead improves. All allies within 60 feet receive resistance 5 against positive energy and a +2 bonus on saving throws against control undead and similar effects. In addition, while his banner is displayed, the cavalier can spend a standard action to wave the banner through the air, granting all allies within 60 feet an additional saving throw against any one spell or effect that is targeting them. This save is made at the original DC. Spells and effects that do not allow saving throws are unaffected by this ability. An ally cannot benefit from this ability more than once per day.  This ability replaces the cavalier's normal greater banner ability.
[/spoiler]


Death Mage
Death Mages and Deathless
[spoiler]A death mage can choose to focus his talents on deathless rather than undead. Such a character may choose to gain the Deathless domain for his Death Bond. In addition he adds the following spells to his spell list:

[/spoiler]


Gunslinger
Wandslinger (archetype)
[spoiler]Class Skills: A wandslinger adds Knowledge (arcana), Spellcraft and Use Magic Device to his list of class skills, and removes Knowledge (engineering).

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A wandslinger is not proficient with firearms.

Wand Mastery (Su): Whenever the wandslinger uses a wand, he calculates the DC for any spell it contains using his Wisdom modifier, instead of the minimum modifier needed to cast a spell of that level.

Wandsmith: At 1st level, a wandslinger gains two battered eternal wands (ECS p265), each containing a 0th-level spell usable 2/day; these wands function only for the wandslinger, and have negligible sale value (2d10 gp each). The wandslinger also gains Wandsmithing [evocation] as a bonus feat (see feats section), effectively giving him a spell list for the purposes of activating spell trigger items. This replaces the gunslinger's Gunsmith ability.

Wand Training (Su): At 1st level when a wandslinger uses a spell trigger item to cast a spell on his spell list, if it requires a ranged attack roll he gains a bonus on the damage roll equal to his Dex modifier (if the spell does not deal damage he may choose to deal damage equal to his Dex modifier in addition to the normal effects). He applies this extra damage only once per target, even the spell would deal damage multiple times. In addition such spells are not considered touch attacks for the purposes of feats like Deadly Aim. This replaces the gunslinger's Gun Training ability.

Grit: A wandslinger gains grit from spells (including spells cast from items) rather than firearms. Note that only spells which require an attack roll are capable of inflicting critical hits.

Deeds: For the purposes of deeds, a wandslinger treats wands as one-handed firearms and staves as two-handed firearms. A deed which requires a ranged attack roll may only be used with a spell which requires a ranged attack roll. In addition, he may choose to replace one or more of his deeds with the deeds below:
  • Eternal Charge (Su): At 1st level, a wandslinger can expend 1 point of grit in place of a charge when casting a spell from a spell trigger item. This deed replaces Quick Clear.
  • Focus Shot (Su): At 1st level, as long as he has 1 point of grit remaining a wandslinger may cast an area spell from a spell trigger item as a ranged touch spell, affecting a single target out to the spell's maximum range. If the spell's primary effect allowed a save it is removed, though saves for secondary effects remain. Spells which could affect the target multiple times affect them once and then end (eg. a wall of fire would damage the target once as if they had passed through it, but a web spell would keep the target grappled for the full duration). This deed may only be used with spells on his spell list. This deed replaces Deadeye.
  • Full Power (Su): At 1st level, a wandslinger can expend 1 point of grit as he casts a spell from a spell trigger item to increase its caster level to his gunslinger level (if higher than its original caster level). This deed replaces Expert Loading.
  • Point Blank Burst (Su): At 3rd level, a wandslinger may expend 1 point of grit to cast a spell from a spell trigger item as a ranged touch spell against an adjacent target. If it hits, both the target and the gunslinger also take 1d6 damage per two gunslinger levels you possess. This otherwise functions as the Focus Shot deed. This deed replaces Pistol-Whip.
  • Wand Assault (Su): At 7th level, a wandslinger can expend 1 point of grit as part of a full attack, enabling him to cast spells from spell trigger items in place of attacks. This deed may only be used with spells on his spell list. This deed replaces Dead Shot.
  • Quick Activation (Su): At 11th level, a wandslinger can expend 1 point of grit to cast a spell from a spell trigger or spell completion item as a swift action, as if the Quicken Spell metamagic feat had been applied to it. This deed replaces Lightning Reload.

Bonus Feats: A wandslinger adds Master Craftsman, Metamagic Spell Trigger3.5, Wand Dancer, Wandsmithing (see feats section) and all item creation feats to the list of feats he can select as bonus feats.
[/spoiler]


Inquisitor
Inspired Inquisitor (archetype)
[spoiler]Wild Talent: At 1st level an Inspired Inquisitor gains Wild Talent as a bonus feat. This ability replaces Judgement 1/day. From 4th level on he may use Judgement one time fewer per day.

Spells: The Inspired Inquisitor's spells are treated as psionic effects, and prestige classes which advance manifesting can be used to advance his inquisitor casting. This does not apply to spells gained from other classes.

Psionic Conversion (Su): As a swift action, the Inspired Inquisitor can expend one of his inquisitor spell slots to gain temporary pp equal to (2x spell level) -1 for one round.

Detect Psionics (Ps): An Inspired Inquisitor can use detect psionics as a psi-like ability at will. This ability replaces the inquisitor's detect alignment ability.

Psion Killer (Su): At 3rd level, once per round whenever the Inspired Inquisitor inflicts damage to a creature with the psionic subtype, he can force it to make a Fortitude save (DC = 10 + half his inquisitor level + his Wis modifier) or lose 1pp per two inquisitor levels he possesses. This ability replaces the inquisitor's solo tactics ability.

Discern Lies (Sp): An Inspired Inquisitor may use his discern lies ability for a number of rounds per day equal to 2 + his inquisitor level. However, quori and creatures possessed by quori (including kalashtar and elans) never appear to be lying.
[/spoiler]


Psychic Warrior
Tashalatora (archetype)
[spoiler]Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Tashalatora are proficient with simple weapons but not with armor or shields. This replaces the psychic warrior's normal weapon and armor proficiencies.

AC Bonus: When unarmored and unencumbered, a tashalatora adds his Wisdom modifier as a bonus to AC and CMD. This bonus to AC applies even against touch attacks or when the psychic warrior is flat-footed. He loses this bonus when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load. This ability replaces the psychic warrior's 1st-level power known (meaning that until 2nd level he only has knowledge of the power from his path).

Unarmed Strike: A tashalatora gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat and deals increased damage with his unarmed strikes as a monk of his class level (stacking with any monk levels he may possess). This ability replaces the psychic warrior's 1st-level bonus feat and Psionic Proficiency.

Evasion (Ex): At 2nd level a tashalatora gains the evasion special ability. This ability replaces the psychic warrior's 2nd-level bonus feat.

Psychic Strike (Su): As long as a tashalatora has at least 1 pp remaining he gains the benefits of Ki Strike as a monk of his class level (stacking with any monk levels he may possess), allowing him to overcome certain types of damage reduction with his unarmed strikes.[/spoiler]


Sorcerer
Dragonmarked Bloodline
[spoiler]A sorcerer may use a Dragonmarked bloodline in place of the Draconic bloodline to qualify for the dragon disciple PrC, and a dragon disciple without sorcerer levels may select a Dragonmarked bloodline. A character with this bloodline chooses one mark available to his race, and may never gain the abilities of another mark by any means (though he may still learn spells on their lists as normal spells). Using the Disguise skill to create a disguise that incorporates a fake dragonmark inflicts a -10 penalty on the check, since such things are easy to recognise and difficult to copy.

The grade of a character's dragonmark is determined by the maximum level of spells it can access - Least: 1st, Lesser: 3rd, Greater: 5th, Siberys: 7th

When a character with a dragonmark gains a level in a favored class they may choose to gain +1/2 daily uses of their dragonmark's bloodline power in place of the normal bonuses.

Bonus Feats: Any [Dragonmark] feat.

Bloodline Arcana: Whenever you cast a bloodline spell or a spell which affects dragonmarks, increase the spell's caster level and save DC by +1.

Bloodline Powers: Characters who manifest a dragonmark gain the following abilites.

Least Power (Sp): You may use any spell on your bloodline list as a spell-like ability with a caster level equal to half your sorcerer level (minimum 1) - if this would result in a caster level too low to cast the chosen spell then it cannot be cast. These spell-like abilities do not gain the benefits of your bloodline arcana. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier (the spells share a common pool).

Favored in House (Ex): At 3rd level you gain a +2 bonus on Bluff, Diplomacy and Intimidate checks made against members of your dragonmarked house. In addition, you may call on contacts in your house 1/week per two sorcerer levels to provide you with favors. Roll a d20, with a +1 modifier per four character levels. The DM sets the DC based on the scope of the favor being requested; it can range from 10 for a simple favor to as high as 25 for highly dangerous, expensive, or illegal favors. You can't take 10 or take 20 on this check, nor can you retry the check for the same (or virtually the same) favor. Favors should help advance the plot of an adventure. A favor that would enable you to circumvent an adventure will always be unavailable to you, regardless of the result of the check.

Greater Power (Su): At 9th level your Least Power becomes a Supernatural ability, and gains the benefits of your bloodline arcana.

Heir of Siberys (Su): At 15th level you gain 1 temporary hero point at the start of each encounter, which expires when the encounter ends.

Living Prophecy (Ex): At 20th level your Least Power becomes an Extraordinary ability. You may expend 2 uses of your Least Power in place of a hero point. Finally, you gain a +4 bonus on Intimidate checks made against true dragons.[/spoiler]


Soulknife
Tashalatora (archetype)
[spoiler]Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Tashalatora are proficient with simple weapons and with their own mind blade (regardless of form) but not with armor or shields. This replaces the soulknife's normal weapon and armor proficiencies.

AC Bonus (Ex): As the monk class feature. This ability replaces the soulknife's bonus feat at 1st level.

Blade Skills: A tashalatora adds the following to his list of blade skills.
  • Flowing Blade: The tashalatora's mind blade counts as a monk weapon, and may be used as part of a flurry of blows.

Enhanced Mind Blade: A tashalatora adds ki focus to the list of enchantments he can apply to his mind blade.[/spoiler]


Summoner
Construct Summoner (archetype)
[spoiler]Construct Eidolon: A construct summoner's eidolon is formed of composite materials similar to those found in warforged. His eidolon's type changes to Construct (augmented outsider, living construct). In addition, his eidolon may select [Warforged] feats as if it were a warforged. Unlike a normal eidolon, a construct eidolon disappears if it is reduced to 0 hit points. If a construct eidolon gains the Undead Appearance evolution, instead of save bonuses it receives immunity to stunning. If the summoner also possesses the synthesist archetype then he may select [Warforged] feats as if he were a warforged, but may only use them while merged with his eidolon (unless he is already a warforged).
This ability replaces the eidolon's evolution points at 1st level - from 2nd level on it has 3 fewer evolution points than normal.

Summon Construct (Sp): When using your summon monster I ability, instead of summoning a monster from the normal list you summon a 1st-level astral construct. Whenever you would gain the ability to summon monsters of one level higher, you instead gain the ability to summon astral constructs of one level higher. Despite duplicating a psionic power, this is not a psionic effect. At 19th level you gain access to gate as normal. This ability modifies, but does not replace, the summoner's normal summon monster ability.

At the DM's option, you may choose to grant the construct summoner a spell-like version of the astral juggernaut power instead of gate. Make the following changes:
  • XP cost becomes a material component of 5,000gp in value.
  • The juggernaut's ectokinetics ability is activated by expending a summoner spell slot with a level of at least half the pp cost (round up). Eg. using metaphysical slam (7pp) would require a slot of lv4 or higher.
[/spoiler]


Witch
New Hexes
[spoiler]Witch of Khyber (Su): If the witch possesses the Aberrant Dragonmark feat she may use her Intelligence modifier to determine the save DCs of her aberrant dragonmark, as well as its number of uses per day. At 4th level she may treat the spell-like abilities granted by that feat as hexes, allowing her to use them at will. At 8th level she may also treat the SLAs granted by the Lesser Aberrant Dragonmark feat as hexes, and at 12th level this extends to the Greater Aberrant Dragonmark feat.[/spoiler]
New Major Hexes
[spoiler]Grand Witch of Khyber (Su): A witch with this hex does not risk becoming dazed when using her Aberrant Dragonmark. In addition she gains Aberrant Dragonmark, Lesser Aberrant Dragonmark or Greater Aberrant Dragonmark as a bonus feat, as long as she meets the prerequisites. The witch must possess the Witch of Khyber hex to select this hex.[/spoiler]


Witch Hunter
Exorcist (archetype)
[spoiler]Exorcism (Su): At 9th level, an exorcist may expend a use of his spellbane power as a standard action to make a melee touch attack. If it succeeds then it is resolved as a normal use of spellbane, except that only spells which control the target's behaviour (such as dominate person) may be dispelled. In addition, any creature possessing the target must succeed on a Will save (DC = 10 + half the exorcist's class level + his Wis modifier) or be expelled. This replaces the witch hunter's Cursebreaker ability.

Prestige Classes

Dragonmark Heir
Prerequisites: Dragonmarked Bloodline or Eldritch Heritage (dragonmarked), 5 ranks in any one skill

HD: d8
BAB: Average
Saves: All good
Quote
1    Advancement, Dragonmark Mastery (1st), House status +1
2    Talent or +1 level of existing spellcasting class, Improved dragonmark
3    Dragonmark Mastery (2nd), House status +2
4    Talent or +1 level of existing spellcasting class, Improved dragonmark
5    Dragonmark Mastery (3rd), House status +3
6    Talent or +1 level of existing spellcasting class, Improved dragonmark
7    Dragonmark Mastery (4th), House status +4
8    Talent or +1 level of existing spellcasting class, Improved dragonmark
9    Dragonmark Mastery (5th), House status +5
10   Talent or +1 level of existing spellcasting class, Improved dragonmark
Advancement: At every level of dragonmark heir the caster level of your Dragonmarked bloodline's Least Power  increases by 1 (after halving), to a maximum of your character level. This may allow you to access higher-level spells. For instance, a rogue 5/dragonmark heir 3 with the Eldritch Heritage feat would have a caster level of 3 from his character levels (8-2, halved), +3 from this ability for a total of CL6. Such a character could access 3rd-level SLAs from his bloodline.

Dragonmark Mastery: At 1st level you may cast your dragonmark's 1st-level spell without expending uses of its bloodline power (i.e. you may use it an unlimited number of times per day). At every odd level thereafter this ability also applies to spells of one level higher.

House Status (Ex): A dragonmark heir adds half their class level as a bonus on Charisma-based checks when interacting with members of their dragonmarked house (round up).

Improved Dragonmark: At every even level you gain an extra use of your Dragonmarked bloodline's Least Power per day.

Talent: At every even level you gain a rogue talent, or a talent from one other class in which you have levels (eg. a barbarian rage power or an alchemist discovery). Your dragonmark heir levels stack with levels in that class for prererequisites based on class level. Alternatively, you may increase your caster level and spells per day as if you had gained a level in a spellcasting class to which you belonged before entering dragonmark heir.

Benefit: Your Gun Tank's Resolve deed is considered active at all times, and stacks with your Fortification racial trait. In other words you have 50% fortification, increasing to 75% at gunslinger 10 and 100% at gunslinger 15.[/spoiler]


Traits
[spoiler]Atavist (Faith, Race)
Prerequisites: Kalashtar
Benefit: The discipline talent from your Telepath ability can be chosen from the lists for any discipline.
Normal: The Telepath racial trait provides one discipline talent from the Telepathy discipline, as a psion.

Cyran Marksman (Combat, Regional-Cyre)
You have received basic gun training as part of your time in the Cyran army.
Benefit: You may treat firearms as martial weapons rather than exotic weapons.
Special: If firearms are already treated as martial weapons in your campaign you may instead treat them as simple weapons, and if you take levels in gunslinger you gain the Gun Training class feature from lv1.

Folding Weapon (Combat, Race)
Prerequisites: Warforged, Integrated Weapon racial trait.
Benefit: You may transform your integrated weapon(s) into normal hands or back again, as an action equivalent to drawing a weapon. You cannot attack with a weapon while it is transformed into a hand.

House Member (Magic, Race, Social)
Whether or not you are an active member you can trace your heritage to one of the dragonmarked houses, and its blood flows particularly strong in your veins.
Prerequisites: Member of a dragonmarked race.
Benefit: You may ignore the Skill Focus and Cha 13 prerequisites of the Eldritch Heritage feat if you use that feat to attain a dragonmark. In addition you gain a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks made to emulate knowledge of a spell granted by your chosen dragonmark.

Hunter of the Flame (Religion-Silver Flame)
You have accepted a holy quest to slay all creatures your church finds abhorrent.
Benefit: As a swift action you can charge your weapons with cleansing energy. For 1 round, your attacks overcome damage reduction as silver weapons.

Karrnathi Cheesecrafter (Regional-Karrnath)
You have received formal training in the fine art of cheesemaking.
Benefit: You gain a +2 trait bonus on Profession (cook) checks and may use that skill untrained, but only when making checks related to cheese. Profession (cook) becomes a class skill for all your classes. In addition you gain a +1 bonus on Diplomacy checks made against creatures who have eaten your cheese in the last 24 hours, and a +1 bonus on Intimidate checks against rakshasa, who hate cheese. You may identify any type of cheese automatically, even if disguised by deity-level magic.

Karrnathi Corpsecrafter (Magic, Regional-Karrnath)
You have received formal training in necromancy and undead creation.
Benefit: Any undead creature created by you gains +1 hit point per Hit Die.

Ship Pet (Regional-Lhazaar Principalities)
You own a small animal trained to assist on a ship.
Benefit: You possess an animal from the list available as familiars. This animal has hit points equal to half your own and BAB equal to half your character level (if higher than its original stats). In addition it possesses the Link ability as an animal companion, but gains no other benefits of either class feature. You may only have one pet at a time; if your pet dies or is released from your service you may train another valid animal for one week to make it your new pet. Released pets lose the increased stats from being a pet.
Special: You may take the Improved Familiar feat to gain a more powerful pet, treating the pet as a familiar and your character level as your arcane caster level; this does not grant it any familiar abilities.
Special: If you gain a familiar you may designate this animal as your familiar; in place of the normal benefits of this trait you gain a +1 bonus to your effective wizard level for determining its abilities.

Touched by the Flame (Regional-Thrane, Religion-Silver Flame)
You were born with a birthmark, unusually coloured eyes, or some other sign that you would be destined for great things in the church.
Benefit: You gain a +2 trait bonus on Knowledge (religion) checks related to the Silver Flame, and Knowledge (religion) is always a class skill for you. In addition you gain resistance to fire 1.

Spells + Items

New Domains
Deathless Domain
Blessing of the Court (Su): Whenever you channel positive energy to heal creatures, add your cleric level to the damage healed.

Call of the Undying (Su): At 8th level, as a swift action you can recall one previously prepared and cast spell, allowing you to cast it again later. The recalled spell must be at least one level lower than the highest spell level you can cast. You can use this ability once per day at 8th level, plus one additional time per day for every four levels beyond 8th.

Domain Spells:detect undeadconsecratehalt deathlessspirit steedhallowcreate deathlesscontrol deathlesscreate greater deathlesshero's blade.

Ioun Stones
Ioun stones in Eberron are crafted from dragonshards, and the methods used to implant ioun stones within a creature's body are closely related to those used for quori embedded shards. Thus any creature capable of using quori embedded shards may have ioun stones implanted in their body without performing the normal fasting ritual.

Spell Trigger Items
There is a 30% chance of any randomly-generated spell trigger item possessing a charge reservoir (see below).

Wandslingers often enchant their spell trigger items as weapons in addition to their spellcasting abilities. A wand is treated as a club and a staff as a quarterstaff, and they can be crafted as masterwork weapons for the normal +300gp cost. Spell trigger weapons have their own variants of the Lucky and Lucky, Greater firearm enchantments. A spell trigger item retains its properties as a weapon after its charges have been expended.

Charge Reservoir
Aura: minor transmutation; CL 1st; Price +400gp
This special ability can be applied to any item with a limited number of charges (but not single-use items). The item is equipped with a backup power source, not great enough to activate it with. When the item's charges are expended, it does not lose its magical properties but is instead treated as having 0 charges. For most items this has no benefit unless its wielder has a way to activate an item without expending charges, such as the wandslinger's Eternal Charge deed.
Construction Requirements: magic weapon, creator must have the item creation feat required for an item of that type.

Lucky
Aura: moderate transmutation; CL 8th; Price +1 bonus
This special ability can only be placed on spell trigger items which have been enchanted as weapons. A lucky item has its own magical reservoir of grit. Usually this grit is stored within the marks of an engraving or in a trinket that hangs from the item. Often these marks take the form of holy symbols or fetishes, but such a reservoir can take just about any form. This reservoir holds 1 grit point, which is refreshed at the start of each day. Whether or not the wielder of a lucky item has any deeds (see page 10), she can always spend 1 grit point from the lucky item to reroll a Use Magic Device check involving the item that would result in a failure. When the wielder does so, she must take the second result, even if that Use Magic Device check also results in a failure.
Construction Requirements: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, heroism, creator must be a grit user

Lucky, Greater
Aura: moderate enchantment; CL 12th; Price +3 bonus
This special ability can only be placed on spell trigger items which have been enchanted as weapons. A greater lucky item is nearly identical to a lucky item, but its reservoir holds 3 grit points instead of 1. An item cannot have both this special ability and the lucky special ability.
Construction Requirements: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, greater heroism, creator must be a grit user

Misc
Classes in the world
Base Classes
Alchemist: Most alchemists learn their trade from a guild associated with the dragonmarked houses; members of the Fabricators Guild, Healers Guild and House Vadalis are most common. Traditional herbalism is also passed down among the inhabitants of the Talenta Plains and Eldeen Reaches - some alchemists were originally herbalists but lost that archetype as they studied more exotic techniques.
Armiger: The abilities of an armiger emerge from formation combat and wearing heavy armor. Thus it is no surprise that enormous numbers of warforged possess at least one or two armiger levels, particularly those seeking to enter the warforged juggernaut prestige class.
Bard: Bards of the archeologistUC archetype are widespread in Eberron, frequently serving as field agents of Morgrave University and similarly knowledge-hungry factions. CelebrityUM bards resemble modern pop idols, and most have similarly busy schedules.
Beastmaster: Among the druidic sects the Ashbound have the largest ratio of beastmasters to rangers, a result of their distaste for magic.
Cavalier: Two nations in Khorvaire are famous for their cavalry forces: the elves of Valenar who breed the finest horses in all Khorvaire, and Karrnath's bone knights who ride into battle on skeletal steeds (see class section for the Bone Knight archetype). Halflings rarely take up this class to advance their dinosaur partners, since its abilities lend themselves more to large-scale combat than hunting.
Death Mage: This class has its origins with the elves of Aerenal. However, since the extermination of House Vol the only Death Mages who operate openly follow the paths of the Reaper Mage and Tomb Mage (see also Death Mages and Deathless in the class section). Those mages who still follow the Corpse, Ghoul and Shadow paths usually pass themselves off as sorcerers. Non-elf Death Mages are known to exist among the Blood of Vol cult, but they are rare compared to clerics and necromancers.
Druid: The majority of halfling druids use the saurian shaman archetype. Shifters are usually mooncallers, while dragon shamans usually hail from Argonessen where the majority of dragons reside.
Gunslinger: While numerous groups possess the technology to create firearms, in a world where wands and staves can be mass-produced they are largely seen as a novelty; Cyre was the only one of the Five Nations to actually train soldiers in their use. They do, however, enjoy a quiet popularity in the Lhazaar Principalities, being more suited for combat in the cramped spaces of a ship than a crossbow. For characters from other regions, the wandslinger archetype above provides a more setting-compatible alternative.
Inquisitor: Members of the inquisitor class usually serve one of three factions: the Church of the Silver Flame, the Order of the Emerald Claw, or the Dreaming Dark; members of the latter usually use the Inspired Inquisitor archetype above. Aside from this, most governments include some inquisitors in their intelligence divisions.
Magus: While any person with an interest in both magic and swordplay can become a magus, this combination of skills is normally associated with veterans of the Last War due to a number of training programmes which sought to create them, being particularly common among warforged.
Oracle: Among kalashtar, oracles are those who tap deeply into their quori spirit to the point of losing a part of themselves in it. The elves of Valenar make use of oracles who channel the spirits of their ancestors. The Silver Flame also has a number of oracles among its worshippers; in particular the Keepers of the Flame might be better represented as oracles than clerics.
Samurai: The samurai tradition originated with the goblins of Darguun, though similar warriors fight for Valenar.
Shaman: A number of shamans exist among the monks of Adar; in fact, the shaman's power over spirits may have allowed for the creation of the original kalashtar. Shamans are also common among the barbarians of Argonessen, the drow, and the tribes of the Demon Wastes.
Summoner: The summoner class is relatively rare in Khorvaire. Some summoners call aspects of the Dragon Below or Xoriat into the world and are prominent as cult leaders, while House Cannith contains a number of summoners who design and summon mechanical-looking eidolons. Kalashtar summoners usually call forth an eidolon based on their quori spirit, and possess a high percentage of synthesists.
Witch: Most witches hail from Droaam (or are mentored by a Droaamite), and are said to have the blood of Khyber flowing through their veins. Whether or not this is true, a significant number of witches among the common races possess aberrant dragonmarks.
Witch Hunter: Both the Ashbound and the Church of the Silver Flame possess witch hunters, though with differing concepts of "witch". The kalashtar possess witch hunters whose witches are quori and those possessed by them. See the class section for the exorcist archetype.

Prestige Classes
Agent of the Grave: The abilities of this class are well-suited to a member of the Order of the Emerald Claw. Members of the Stillborn lured to Vol's service frequently gain levels in this class as their focus shifts from deathless to undead.
Bloatmage: In Eberron this class is exclusively the reserve of the Blood of Vol. Bloatmages are held in awe by the more fundamentalist members of the church, but moderate sects tend to view the path as excessive.
Brightness Seeker: Valenar's elves are the only population known to possess Brightness Seekers. A Valenar elf's Rebirth ability always reincarnates him as a horse or pony, regardless of location.
Inheritor's Crusader: This PrC is common among the kalashtar who fight actively against quori infiltrators.

And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right?

This is really professional for homebrew. I'm a huge fan of the Changeling... changes...

I'm not sure if Shifters are exactly on par with the other races, but their number of options is pretty amazing. They seem to have to spend a move action to get their racial features, none of which seem spectacularly more exciting than other races' racials, and that doesn't feel right to me. With a "focused shifting" feat that allows them to increase one of their chosen ability scores by +4 while shifting rather than +2 that might assuage my concerns.

I was wondering if it would be too overpowered to make the Improved Reallocation feat a racial trait.

They don't have to spend a move action. They can use shifting in the same way as barbarian rage, with the extra option allowing them to keep it up out of combat. Plus the Easy Shifting feat improves that so it takes the same action as drawing a weapon.

Just gave them DR 1/silver. Maybe I should make it a swift action to maintain shifting?

Also, replaced Extra Shifter Trait with this:
Quote
Improved Shifting [Shifter]
Benefit: While shifting you gain one additional shifter trait from the available options or one of your ability scores increases by +2. If this would give you the same trait twice you gain the advanced benefit. Ability score bonuses stack with your existing ability score bonuses
Special: You may select this feat multiple times; the effects stack. You cannot increase the bonus to an ability score from shifting beyond +4, or gain the same trait more than twice.

I would keep the move action maintenance, I like that, and the Easy shifting feat, what I'm saying is, that when they aren't shifting they have low-light vision, two ability penalties, and a +2 bonus to a couple skills. Compared to other races the Shifter either has to spend a daily resource or a move action in order to access its relevant racial abilities.

The DR is a cute touch, but I don't think it helps their situation much. Though looking over it again, I'm not sure if it's really a huge problem or not.

I like this better, the up to +4 bonus puts it on par with rage in strength if not in scope, and in the end it's just one more +1 to a few rolls.

I've been thinking about whether to remove their racial Cha penalty. Maybe give them a bonus to initiative? Already added +0 wild empathy.

Any other piece of Eberron material which needs tackling?

They seem good now. How about these?

Shifter Healing [Shifter]
Prerequisites: Con 13
Benefit: When you shift you heal a number of hit points equal to the number of [Shifter] feats you have times your Constitution modifier. While you are shifted you have Fast Healing equal to the number of [Shifter] feats you have.

Improved Shifter Healing [Shifter]
Prerequisites: Con 21, Shifter Healing, Diehard, Improved Toughness
Benefit: When you shift you regain all lost hit points and gain a number of temporary hit points equal to the number of [Shifter] feats you have times your Constitution modifier. These temporary hit points last until your shifting is ended. When your shifting ends, for every 5 temporary hit points you would lose you may remove any one of the following: 1d2 negative levels, 1d4 ability damage, blinded, confused, dazed, dazzled, deafened, diseased, exhausted, fatigued, feebleminded, insanity, nauseated, sickened, stunned, and poisoned.

Oh, crap, that's right...

well I guess just giving fast healing equal to the number of [Shifter] feats one possesses is probably alright at that point then...

Dragonmark Heir

Talent: At every even level you gain a rogue talent, or a talent from one other class in which you have levels (eg. a barbarian rage power or an alchemist discovery). Alternatively, you may increase your caster level and spells per day as if you had gained a level in a spellcasting class to which you belonged before entering dragonmark heir.

Hi Prime - nice stuff :)  Minor suggestion below.

The "talent from one other class in which you have levels" seems breakable.   Perhaps it should also be capped at character level?  (Example: You cannot gain an ability that couldn't be gained by normal means at a level equal to your character level or earlier).

Example:  Factotum 4/Dragonmarked Heir 2 -> gains the "Cunning Brilliance" ability of the factotum.

Best,
David
Some Cool Quotes:  [spoiler]
Quote from: unknown
Non-PC activities like out of combat healing should be left to wands and NPCs. It's not fun to play a walking wand of CLW. Likewise, being a combat wall is not a viable PC role. A Wall of Force could do that.

-Sort of, but you left out the important note that a Wall of Force does it better.

Quote from: Runestar / skydragonknight
The most powerful character is the one that you actually get to play.

Quote from: Operation Shoestring
I often have to remind people not to underrate divination.  The ability to effectively metagame without actually metagaming beats the ability to set things on fire more times than not.

Cunning Brilliance isn't a talent, it's a class feature. Many PF classes get a talent from a class-specific list every 2-3 levels.

Ah, I see.  Didn't know the terminology ... (That "Rage Powers", "Magus Arcana", etc. are talents).

Some Cool Quotes:  [spoiler]
Quote from: unknown
Non-PC activities like out of combat healing should be left to wands and NPCs. It's not fun to play a walking wand of CLW. Likewise, being a combat wall is not a viable PC role. A Wall of Force could do that.

-Sort of, but you left out the important note that a Wall of Force does it better.

Quote from: Runestar / skydragonknight
The most powerful character is the one that you actually get to play.

Quote from: Operation Shoestring
I often have to remind people not to underrate divination.  The ability to effectively metagame without actually metagaming beats the ability to set things on fire more times than not.

Thoughts on letting shifters use [Wild] feats by expending 2 rounds of shifting? Or make that a feat available at 5th level?
My work
The tier system in a nutshell:
[spoiler]Tier 6: A cartographer.
Tier 5: An expert cartographer or a decent marksman.
Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.
