Pathfinder 1e Character Sheet: Majescrea Vom Clarost

At 1st level, an armiger may customize up to three sets of weapons in a process that takes 8 hours of modification, drilling, and practice each, reworking scabbards, modifying grips, adding hooks and straps, and other tweaks to suit her personal fighting style. Each set may consist of: a single weapon, a pair of weapons that are wielded simultaneously, up to 10 identical thrown weapons, or up to 50 pieces of ammunition. A given weapon cannot be part of more than one set simultaneously. The armiger always treats her active weapon as if it were masterwork.

The armiger may choose to customize a new weapon by spending 8 hours, choosing which existing customizations to lose. The armiger must be proficient with the weapon to customize it and may not customize siege weapons. If the armiger possesses proficiency with shields, she may customize a shield with one of her weapon customization sets, either as a single weapon or as part of a pair of weapons. The enhancement bonus from enhanced customization only applies to using the shield as a weapon.

The customization process allows the armiger to train in additional talents unique to each customized weapon. At first level, each customized weapon grants a single sphere or talent. A customized weapon must possess a base sphere before additional talents of that sphere may be added unless the armiger possesses that sphere, such as through the bonus talents gained from possessing the combat training class feature, from the Extra Combat Talent feat, or levels in another class. The armiger may not use talents gained from a customized weapon to qualify for feats or to meet other prerequisites unless otherwise noted. Customization talents may be changed with the same action required to customize a new weapon. Spheres and talents that grant skill retraining never grant it when gained via a customized weapon.

The armiger may only benefit from the talents granted by one customized weapon at a time. The weapon she is currently gaining talents from is the active weapon. A customized weapon may be activated as part of drawing it or otherwise recovering it (such as picking it up from the ground) with no action cost. The active weapon must be wielded (or able to be drawn, in the case of ammunition) to provide its benefits; should the active weapon be disarmed, stowed, destroyed, or otherwise no longer wielded (or able to be drawn, in the case of ammunition), the armiger loses access to the granted talents immediately.

If the weapon is thrown as part of an attack, the armiger retains any benefits from the weapon until the end of her turn.

If the armiger customizes a set of thrown weapons or ammunition, she retains the granted talents as long as at least one of the set remains wielded. If a pair of weapons are customized to be wielded together and one is not being wielded, the armiger loses the benefits of the granted talents until the second weapon is recovered. Should the armiger be wielding weapons from two separate customization sets at the same time, she may choose which weapon is active at the beginning of each turn.

At 3rd level and every 4 levels thereafter (7th, 11th, 15th, etc.), each customized weapon grants an additional talent. The armiger gains an additional customized weapon at her 11th and 19th levels.

• Permanent:Armiger's customized weapons are not "temporary talents". The armiger does not lose any "constant" benefits of these talents (i.e. prepared alchemy formulae, tamed animal allies, a maintained stance, etc.) as long as the relevant talents are still assigned to that weapon. While the armiger might not have the active, or constant, benefits of certain talents unless the weapon is out, the armiger does not suddenly lose lingering benefits of these talents because they sheathed their knife and drew their sword.
• Mystic Bond: When customizing a weapon, the antiquarian may choose to have the weapon grant magic talents, replacing granted martial talents at a 1 for 1 exchange. When such a talent is granted, the antiquarian is considered a Mid-Caster, counts her class levels as casting class levels, and uses her practitioner modifier as her casting ability modifier. These caster levels stacks normally with caster levels gained from other sources. When not wielding such a weapon, she does not gain any caster levels from her antiquarian levels. She does not count as possessing the casting class feature for the purpose of the 2 bonus talents gained from the casting class feature.

At 1st level, an armiger gains the benefits of the Quick Draw feat with her customized weapons and may stow customized weapons as a free action once per round, plus one additional time at 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter. This class feature counts as possessing the Quick Draw feat for the purposes of meeting the prerequisites of other feats, though any feat qualified for this way may only be applied to customized weapons.

At 2nd level and every even level thereafter, the armiger may gain a prowess from the following list. Each prowess may only be selected once unless otherwise noted. Any time a prowess requires selecting a specific customized weapon, the benefits of that prowess may be moved to a different weapon at any time a new weapon is customized. All prowesses are extraordinary abilities unless noted.

• Customized Bond: gain the Customed Bond feat.

At 3rd level, while using her active weapon, whenever the armiger succeeds on a combat maneuver, confirms a critical hit, or reduces a foe to 0 or fewer hit points, she may regain martial focus by activating a different customized weapon as an immediate action, stowing the current weapon and drawing the new one as needed.

An armorist gains a bond with a specific weapon, shield, or suit of armor that is far greater than with her other summoned equipment. Bound equipment is summoned and treated just like summoned equipment, except it does not cost a spell point to summon, cannot be used by anyone other than the armorist herself (the item’s magic does not function in another’s hands), comes with limitless ammunition, and disappears 1 round after leaving the armorist’s hands. She gains another piece of bound equipment at 5th level, 10th level, 15th level, and 20th level, and may bond implements beginning at 5th level.

Bound equipment is masterwork quality, and gains a +1 enhancement bonus for every odd armorist level possessed. A piece of bound equipment’s enhancement bonus cannot exceed +1, +1 per 3 armorist levels (maximum +5 all enhancement bonus beyond this must be traded for special abilities.

An armorist may give her bound weapon special abilities from Table: Bound Equipment, trading enhancement bonus for other benefits. Bound equipment cannot be enchanted through any other means than gaining armorist levels and must retain at least a +1 enhancement bonus. Bound implements use the rules presented in the Magic Items chapter, granting the armorist enhancement bonuses to her caster level with one sphere, chosen when the implement is created. A piece of bound equipment may be an implement or a weapon/shield/suit of armor, but not both at the same time.

Once a piece of bound equipment has been selected, or once its special abilities have been chosen, they may only be changed if the armorist spends 8 hours (1 day) meditating to dismiss the old piece of bound equipment and create a new piece of bound equipment to take its place.

The armorist’s bound equipment can be damaged and sundered, but always returns to full health the following day.

A bound double-weapon must divide its enhancement bonuses and special abilities between the two ends (for example, a +5 bound quarterstaff could have a +3 bonus on one end and a +2 bonus on the other). Alternatively, the armorist may bind each end of the double weapon as a separate piece of bound equipment, thus granting full bonuses to each half. If one end of the double weapon has no bonuses, it is still considered masterwork.

• Weapon Form: At 1st level, the spirit blade may take the form, including all properties (such as masterwork status, enhancement bonus, materials, and special abilities), of one of her bound weapons as a full-round action. This is a polymorph effect and persists until the spirit blade changes back or to a different weapon form. Returning to her normal form is a fullround action. While in weapon form, the spirit blade may be targeted as a magic weapon of the chosen type despite not being an object, though is always counted as being attended. The spirit blade in weapon form may communicate telepathically with her wielder. As part of transforming into weapon form, the spirit blade may touch a willing creature that has at least one hand free; the transformation completes with the weapon form held by that creature. The touched creature may drop a held object to free a hand for this purpose as a free action that can be taken even when it is not that creature’s turn. While wielded, the spirit blade is treated as an object for the purpose of effects that target an area.
  
  In weapon form, the blade spirit has no Strength or Dexterity scores (they are treated as having a score of 10 for determining bonuses if required, though if making an attack roll with a sphere affect the normal score is used) and gains hardness equal to her class level or the hardness of the bound weapon, whichever is higher, and takes damage as an object. The spirit blade in weapon form retains her normal senses and communication abilities. While in weapon form, the spirit blade is immune to bleed, disease, paralysis, and poison. Ongoing effects of these kinds are suspended while in weapon form, not expending duration or forcing subsequent saving throws, resuming their normal effects and duration when weapon form ends.
  
  Striking a creature or object as part of an attack does not damage the spirit blade in weapon form, nor forces her to attempt a concentration check to maintain an ongoing effect. If the spirit blade has more than one bound weapon, she may change between their forms with the same action as required to assume weapon form.
  
  The spirit blade may resize her weapon form to suit her wielder as part of changing form. Should the spirit blade possess the ability to have a bound natural attack, she may graft herself to a willing wielder either as part of her transformation into weapon form or as a move action.

At 2nd level, the spirit blade may spend a spell point to attempt to actively possess any creature that wields her, treating her spirit blade levels as wraith levels for determining the possession DC. The spirit blade’s weapon form body is not absorbed into the host; instead the host may wield it as a weapon while possessed. This otherwise functions as the possession ability of the wraith class.

At 2nd level, the wraith may attempt to possess a creature within his natural reach as a standard action. This is a mind-affecting possession effect. The challenge rating of the creature determines the duration of the possession, per the Table: Possession Duration (creatures such as animal companions, Conjuration sphere companions, and familiars are treated as having a CR of their Hit Dice - 2 for this purpose).

This effect can be resisted with a Will save with a DC of 10 + half his wraith level + his casting ability modifier. A successful save to resist or end a possession increases the spell point cost for that individual wraith to possess that creature by 1 for 24 hours. This cost increase is cumulative, but is reset by a successful possession. Unless otherwise noted, creatures are aware of a failed possession attempt, having a feeling of a hostile force, but gain no other information. If the wraith is successful, his body is absorbed by and his life force occupies the host body.

The duration of an ongoing possession may be reset with the same action and spell point cost that was required to initiate it.

• Active possession involves taking control of the possessed creature. Attempting active possession requires a spell point. The wraith maintains his abilities as in passive possession. The body retains its Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, hit points, natural abilities, and automatic abilities. A body with extra limbs does not allow the wraith to make more attacks (or more advantageous two-weapon or two-handed attacks) than normal.
  
  The wraith gains no automatic knowledge of and cannot choose to activate the body’s extraordinary abilities until 6th level or supernatural abilities until 12th level. The creature’s combat talents, feats that require active use, magic talents, spells, sphere abilities, and spell-like abilities cannot be accessed until the levels shown on Table: Active Possession.
  
  An actively possessed creature (the host) is capable of taking mental only actions while possessed and may attempt a new save to end the possession early any time the wraith would force it to do something against its nature (see the Mind sphere for guidelines), though additional saves cannot be made more than once per round.
  
  The wraith cannot cause the host to unwillingly harm itself (attacking itself, allowing others to attack it without defending itself, moving into obviously harmful positions, etc.).
  
  The wraith may attempt to change an active possession to a passive possession or vise versa as a move action. Unwilling creatures are allowed a save to prevent the wraith from going from passive to active possession. Each time unit expended from a passive possession (usually minutes or hours) reduces the time available for an active possession by 1 time unit (usually minutes or rounds) and vice versa.
  
  If the wraith possesses a creature that is unconscious due to being in negative hit points, the wraith remains conscious and can cause the body to act, but it remains staggered (though the wraith can still take additional mental-only actions, only the body is staggered) and may suffer hit point loss as normal.
  
  The host body may still attempt stabilization checks using its normal modifiers. When possessing an unconscious creature, effects that would wake the creature do not end the possession, though the possessed creature is allowed to attempt a save to end the possession once it would be awakened.
  
  The wraith may always end the possession early as a free or immediate action, appearing in an adjacent square of the wraith’s choice (or the nearest available square, if all adjacent squares are occupied). When possessing a willing host, the wraith may increase the duration by its normal time as a free action, paying any spell point cost as usual. When ending a possession, the wraith may choose to reappear with his wraith form ability active by spending a round of that ability as part of ending the possession. If the host body is slain, the possession ends and the wraith is dazed for 1 round with no saving throw and cannot activate wraith form as a free action as part of the possession ending.
  
  Mind-affecting effects that target the actively possessed body or a passively possessed body while the wraith is in control (such as when the host is dazed or stunned) continue to affect the wraith after the possession ends and do not affect the former host. The wraith does not benefit from any immunity to mind-affecting effects that the host possesses. If the wraith is concentrating on a spell or other effect and the host body is subject to an effect that would force a concentration check, the wraith attempts the concentration check. Magical effects granting the wraith armor, deflection, resistance, and shield bonuses, polymorph effects, disease, poison, and other effects that alter or benefit the physical body of the wraith are suppressed for the duration of the possession but do not expend time from their durations. Effects targeting the possessed body (such as hit point damage, disease, healing, or poison) affect the possessed body and do not transfer to the wraith unless able to affect possessing creatures. Effects capable of targeting possessing creatures may target and affect the wraith while he is possessing another creature, including dealing damage to the wraith.
  
  If another creature attempts to possess a creature the wraith is possessing, it must attempt a magical skill check against the wraith’s MSD. Success forces the wraith out; failure causes the attempt to fail. Effects that would allow a creature to command an actively possessed host are ineffective for the duration of the possession unless they would also affect the wraith.
  
  Effects that grant protection from mind control such as the Hallow word of the Fate sphere or the protection from evil spells function against his ability.
  
  The host’s abilities and statistics derived from mental attributes are not altered by the possession. For example, a wraith with high Charisma does not increase the hit points of a zombie by possessing it, nor would it improve the zombie’s Fortitude save. A possessed nymph would not change its deflection bonus to AC.
  
  At 6th level, the wraith gains knowledge of a possessed creature’s extraordinary abilities and may activate them as normal for that creature.
  
  At 12th level, the wraith gains knowledge of a possessed creature’s supernatural abilities and may activate them as normal for that creature.
  
  At 16th level, the wraith gains knowledge of a possessed creature’s spell-like abilities and may activate them as normal for that creature.
  
  At 18th level, the wraith gains access to additional abilities possessed by the creature for the duration of the possession, as detailed on the table above, but must supply his own spell points for effects requiring them. The wraith gains access to spells as well, casting them from the possessed creature’s spell slots, though must pay spell points based on the level of the slot to do so: level 1-2: 1 spell point, 3-5: 2 spell points, 6-8: 3 spell points, 9: 4 spell points. Cantrips and orisons may be used without spell point cost.

• Guide Strike: At 1st level, the spirit blade’s influence allows the wielder to focus on other matters; the spirit blade momentarily controls her wielder, spending her actions (free, swift, move, standard, and/or full-round) to cause the wielder to make attacks (including combat maneuvers and sphere abilities that require an attack roll made with the spirit blade) with the spirit blade as a free action even when it is not the wielder’s turn. These actions may also be spent to cause the wielder to reload the spirit blade. If an ability, such as the shove ability of the Brute sphere, grants movement as part of the ability, the wielder may make that movement within the limits of that ability. The wielder may attempt a Will save against the spirit blade’s possession DC (10 + half the spirit blade’s class level + casting ability modifier) if unwilling to attack the chosen target. Attacks made this way use statistics as if the wielder was actively possessed. Additionally, the wielder may supply material, somatic, and verbal spell components for the spirit blade’s casting. Attacks of opportunity provoked by the spirit blade’s casting are made against the spirit blade herself.
• Grant Skill: At 3rd level, the spirit blade may grant her skill to her wielder. The spirit blade guides the wielder’s attacks that are made with the spirit blade’s weapon form, allowing them to be made with the spirit blade’s base attack bonus. The spirit blade may choose to share her magic and combat talents with her wielder. Duplicate talents do not grant any benefit unless the talent may be taken more than once; if such a talent allows for selections from a list, the choices made cannot change as part of this ability and any limits on the number of additional times a talent may be taken are unchanged. Additionally, the spirit blade may use her Strength or Dexterity modifier (as determined by her attributes when not in blade form) to determine the results of attacks made with her blade form if beneficial.

At 2nd level and every even-numbered level thereafter, the armorist gains an arsenal trick, representing the ways she has chosen to focus her study of equipment and its uses. Unless otherwise specified, an individual arsenal trick can only be gained once.

• Shifting Weapon: The armorist’s bound and summoned weapons gain the transformative and adaptive special abilities. She may take this arsenal trick twice. Doing so grants her bound and summoned weapons the greater transformative special ability.
• Additional Binding: The armorist may bind an additional piece of equipment.
• Wraith Haunt - Wraith's Blade: The wraith may spend a spell point as a swift action to cause all his attacks to become incorporeal touch attacks (and thus be resolved as touch attacks, though effects that apply against incorporeal touch attacks function normally) until the end of his turn. This ability also allows the attacks to be made against corporeal targets while wraith form is active.
