Advance Classes: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 05:44, 4 June 2019

Below is a list of Advance Classes that provide more specific features to a Character. They can also help give focus to your Character's roll in both combat and role play.

All Advance Classes are formatted the same. First, there is a description of the Class that may have some 'flavor text'. Then there are Requirements, Restrictions, Class Information (which includes a table), and lastly Class Features.

All Advance classes require your character to be at least level 2. Requirements are centered around what Path you picked, but that doesn't limit the Advance Classes. If you do not meet the Paths requirement, then you can instead try for Ability Score.

Restrictions can stop a player from taking the class or risk the punishment of no longer having that feature.

Near the top right of the Character sheet is a couple of different sections for writing down things such as Character and Player Name. There is also a section Titled: "Character Classes and Levels". This is the same place you put your Path. You can also specify what Advance Class you are and what level you have in it.

NOTE: All the mentions of levels noted in the sections below refer to the specific Advance Class of that section unless specified otherwise.

"No one gets left behind." That is the motto of at Combat Medic. No matter what species you may be there is something we all share. Death. Although some have learned to stave off death pretty effectively. But the relentless turn of time slowly grinds the soul, and the law of entropy eats away at the flesh, and in the end, no one can truly escape Death forever. But a long life is what a Combat Medic tries to help grantee his squad. No Army is complete without some medical services. Some way to combat death. To fight death is to fight the true enemy of war.

Combat Medics rush out to danger zones and attempt to heal or if all else to transport the wounded into safe zones. After many years of service, they take their skill to the frontiers of space. Death is assaulting the peoples of the Great Ring at every turn. The services of a Combat Medic is never refused.

Choose the Combat Medic if you want to be able to assist in combat by fighting the real enemy Death.

Combat Medic's Class Features

Medic!: At Combat Medic 1st level, the Combat Medic can more quickly help people in need of aid. Treat Injury skill checks while in combat are considered Simple Actions instead Full Round actions. This only counts for restoring HP not for stabilizing a dying character.

When a natural 20 is rolled for Treat Injury skill an Inertia point is earned and the Health restored is the maximum possible.

Quick Chemistry: At 1st level, the Combat Medic can craft general chemical and pharmaceuticals such as acids, poisons, health concoctions, etc more quickly than average. When using the Craft (Chemical) or Craft (Pharmaceutical) skill to cook General Equipment items, the Combat Medic reduces the cooking/brewing time by 1/2.

At 5th level, the Combat Medic reduces the cooking/brewing time of chemical masterworked concoctions objects by half.

Extra Curricular Brewing: You where a class favorite in the academy. Your teachers thought you worked extra hard even outside of class. Little did they know your hard work was making and experimenting with advanced biochemistry. In other words, you made drugs that could get you high or beer that could get your drunk. People where unsure if your motivations where for being rebellious or simply expanding your knowledge beyond the text book. Regardless the reasons you learned the best way to make all sorts of chemicals that can 'enhance' your experience. However, nowadays you are taking your extracurricular activities into the real world and use it to help enhance yourself and your allies in the heat of battle.

Starting at 2nd level, the Combat Medic can craft Resistance Concoction and Boosters from the Medical Items list in combat as a Full Round action with a DC15 for non-Masterworked. +3 to DC for each Tech Level above 2 or Masterworked level added. The Combat Medic will need a Chemistry or Pharmaceutical kit and a 'delivery method' such as a syringe to attempt the check. If successful they will have one use only Drug. But due to the fast and dirty way it was made it quickly becomes useless within 4 hours. If they fail the 'delivery method' device is not used up, but a usage of the Chemistry or Pharmaceutical kit is still consumed.

Advanced Pharmaceuticals: At 3rd level, the Combat Medic gets better at applying their training and gains one Rank in Craft Pharmaceuticals even if it exceeds the level limit. Also, gains an advantage when attempting to craft Pharmaceutical items outside of combat. This doesn't count toward the 'Extra Curricular Brewing.'

Helpful Hand: At 4th level the Combat Medic has learned through experience and training how to heal better. The Combat Medic now gains an advantage while using the Treat Injury check even while in combat and gets to add their advantage die roll to the HP restored. The Combat Medic will heal a person at least +1 HP even if they fail the Treat Injury check. As long as they don't roll a natural 1.

This means the Combat Medic can now never critically fail a Treat Injury check of any kind.

At 7th level the base HP is now +4 HP even if fail and at 10th it is now 2 advantage bonuses stacked and +8 HP even if fail.

Bonus Feat: At 5th level, the Combat Medic gains a Bonus Feat they can choose from the following Categories: Leadership & Companions, Space Ship Operations, Misc Feats

I'm there for you!: At 6th level the Combat Medic gets a 10ft bonus movement range and is no longer affected by rough terrain or zero gravity environments when it comes to movement.

In-Field Chemistry: Special training classes focused on combating chemical warfare have familiarized the Combat Medic with the different horrible Poisons, acids and other deadly chemicals and diseases often used as weapons of war.

Started at 7th level, the Combat Medic gains an advantage whenever attempting to Identify, Study, or Craft a Antidotes for deadly chemical substances. This advantage may stack with other advantages gained from other talents.

Resolve: Beginning at 8th level, a Combat Medic gains a morale bonus equal to one-half his Combat Medic class level (rounded down) on saving throws to resist fear effects and Intimidate checks.

Never gonna let you go: At 9th level, a Combat Medic can stabilize a character as a Simple Action even while in combat. There is no need for a roll as long as the Combat Medic has a usable Medical Kit or similar device.

Biological Weakness: At 10th level, a Combat Medic can use their knowledge of anatomy to tear down instead of build up. By taking a simple action and doing a Knowledge Science or merely an Intelligence check of DC15 the Combat Medic can recall a weakness regarding a target as long as the target is a sentient common species found in the Universe. They can only perform this once per target per combat. If successful they gain an additional advantage on attack rolls against the target for the remainder of the combat.

Scarlet looked up at the unfamiliar night sky. The sky was an unexpected reminder of the odd day she had. Just yesterday her world was much smaller. Today it is larger than the Universe itself. She had fought weird monsters and traveled to a new dimension and now looked tried from her experiences. She laded down in an alien field staring up at unknown stars. The galaxy this planet was in wasn't shaped like the Milky Way. In the Milky Way the 'Ring of Life' is visible on all worlds. Instead, this galaxy was a blob of stars only mostly round in shape. Notable by the brighter brownish hue that dominated the southern hemisphere.

She wondered what other things are different about this galaxy. About this dimension. And the strange man that brought her here. He explained mostly by showing. A direct and somewhat terrifying approach. He mentioned about how she had recently 'awoken' her powers and that it sent some 'ripple' through inter-dimensional static that he and his order listen closely too. She could tell he had done this sort of thing before. He left to get food a while ago. Leaving her alone with her thoughts and more questions than answers and, the sudden realization that her life will never be the same.

What is this order? And why are they so interested in finding me before anybody else? Why do I have these powers? And just how far can I take them?

It wasn't until much later that Scarlet got her answers. She now patrols the cosmos protecting it from itself making sure rifts in space-time do not cause irreparable harm. And stopping other Orders of Knights who also possess such powers from generating them.

Player's pick Dimensional Knight if they want Character's that travel far and wide under the clock of a secret Order which has its goals rooted within the fabric of the cosmos itself.

The fastest path too this Hero is through the Path of Strength(Strong Hero)

Requirements: To qualify to become an Dimension Knight , a character must fulfill the following criteria.

Level: At least Level 2
Path: Path of Strength OR Ability: Strength Score 15+ OR Ability: Wisdom Score 15+ and Strength score of 12+
Order: At level 1 Dimension Knight the Character must pick an Order to follow. (More about this in Extra Info)

Restrictions:

Dimension Knights swear off guns. They use special melee weapons. A Knight gets his saber or other melee weapon of choice once he or she is knighted. Practice and patience reveals what type of melee weapon a Dimension Knight favors.

Class Information:

Ability Affinity: Strength and Wisdom

Class Skills: The Dimension Knight’s class skills are as follows. Athletics (Str), Intimidate (Cha), Choose Any One Knowledge(Int), Study (Int), Sense Motive (Wis), and Survival (Wis).

Extra Info: At level 1 the Dimension Knight must pick and Order that the Knight belongs too. (Optional: You can talk too your GM about making your own Order and possibly change out or mix and match abilities that the different Orders have!)

Dimension Knight's Class Features

Detect Rift: Starting at the Dimension Knight 1st level. Using a Perception check the Dimension Knight can sense something no other player can. A shift/bend/disturbance in spacetime itself. They can also detect abnormally strong or sturdy parts of spacetime where bending it may be difficult. (and FTL drives might not work) This can be useful to detect 'Gates' or rifts in spacetime that can cause one to travel into different dimensions or time. Most FTLs (Faster Then Light) drives for spaceships can cause minor disturbances as well and thus detectable by a Dimension Knight without special equipment. The distance at which the disturbance of an FTL is within low/medium orbit of a planet to give an example.

Dimensional Tricks: Starting at 2nd and preceding on every even level the Dimensional Knight can pick from a list of Techniques/Dimensional Tricks that they can perform. Each Trick has its own rules on how often it can be used. At 2nd level the Dimensional Knight actually gains 2 Dimensional Tricks. To view a list of all Tricks visit the Dimensional Tricks section of the Techniques page.

Weapon Training: At 3rd level the Dimension Knight is granted the Melee Weapon Focus feat.

At 8th level the Dimension Knight gets to pick another feat from the Melee Weapon Combat as part her Expert Weapon Training.

Gate Traveler: Starting on the 5th level the Dimension Knight can open up a 'Gate' to travel through. 'Gates' are portals through space or time or dimensions or some combination of the three. Sometimes they can be detectable and usable by others but many more are never known by anybody but the Dimension Knights. A lot of them are unpredictable and unstable and can cause real harm to neighbor star systems. While others have been in existence for millions of years. Dimension Knights can use there powers to open these Gates or make new ones to be temporarily used by them or others. To do so requires a Survival Check to see if the Character's action on the Gate is successful. The actions are to 'open', 'stabilize/make unstable', 'close'. The DC is dependent on how easy the GM allows the Gate to be. But it should never be lower then 10 or higher then 40. A more difficult Gate shouldn't determine how far it can take a Character or how long it will last. However two way Gates are special and thus get a +5 DC to working with them.

If you want to travel through the Gate another Survival check is required to ensure that you make it in one piece and without any funky side effects. Such as body swapping, or transmutation. The most common side effect is just Nauseated. The Dimension Knight makes this check for herself and all other people. Which for an unstable Gate is DC 15 + Mods and a stable Gate is 8 + GM's Mod. The Dimension Knight can add their Character's Affinity Die too the check because of their expertise. A Dimension Knight can walk through a stable gate without checking. A Dimension Knight can also assist other players through the Gate. You cannot take 10 or 20 when attempting to travel through a Gate.

A Dimension Knight cannot know where the gate leads or if the gate is two way or not A Gate may open up into a water world and send water and alien fish creatures into your own spacetime. A die is rolled and the Player must guess high or low or even or odd. If correct the gate at least close to what the Knight wanted. If wrong it is up to the GM to decide what happens next. A single Dimension Knight doesn't have the power to open a Gate into a completely different Galaxy or time travel. Not without a series amount of help and training.

Always suited: At 7th level the Dimension Knight gains a +1 to the Armour proficiency tree.

Expert Weapon Training: At 8th level the Dimension Knight can gain a Feat from the Melee Weapon Combat.

No Place Like Home: At 9th level the Dimension Knight can mark a location in Spacetime by mediating, influencing and getting to know the area's energy. This takes a 24 hours of meditating with survival check with a DC20. They cannot take 10 or 20. Once this is complete the Dimension Knight can freely open a Gate using the 'Gate Traveler' talent that opens to the marked location and is two way. It is a highly stable so there is no need for a survival check when moving through it. However it only stays open for 1 minute and then rapidly becomes unstable. This 'mark' is detectable by other Dimension Knight's as an opposed Perception check against the Dimension Knight's Survival check. The process has to be done over again if any Spacetime disturbance happens at the 'marked' location which the Dimension Knight can sense. The Dimension Knight can only do this teleportation once per day.

There is no going back. Opening the Gate doesn't require a check unless in combat. Normally it just requires 6 seconds of concentration to perform, and if in Combat that means 2 turns and requires a Wisdom check of DC12 every round unless they take damage then it is DC20. They can 'mark' as many locations as there Wisdom Modifier. They can let go of marked locations without having to be at that spot. This allows them to mark a new location at will.

The Order's of Dimension Knights

As far back as when the first sentient beings pondered the meaning of the Universe Dimension Knights in some form, or another have existed. A small but vast group of individuals given a unique way of exploring the Universe. It is still unknown to this day of exactly how or why this power was ever given or if it is just random. Dimensional heroes have roomed in and out of the fabric of time searching for answers. As time went on, or at least as it seemed to move in some direction, the ragtag group of individuals started to meet and form groups. The biggest of such groups attempted to bring everyone else under there leadership calling themselves Unity. The Order of Unity dedicated themselves to protecting the Universes from what appeared to be an inevitable collision of the multi-verse that could be catastrophic. However, over time some of this group doubted just how successful they were or if it was even truly possible. Eventually, a faction split off from the main group, and a deep chasm grew between them. The new faction eventually called them The Divergent. The Divergent claim that they have taken ancient knowledge from texts and study were made by some of the first Dimensional heroes that were trying to understand the reason for there powers and how it worked. The Divergent claim that these texts justify there leaving The Unity.

When 'The Divergent' pronounced themselves and made there claims it sparked the first and only significant Dimensional War. In secret to the rest of the Multi-Verse, the Cosmos shifted and rippled and bent. Its stretching felt like a loud piercing noise to the Dimension Knights whose weapons are the very fabric of Universes. Eventually, they calmed down as they began to see and feel the terrible consequences. Both sides, all but extinct, went their separate ways quietly. For millions of years, it seemed that both sides would never recover and few new peoples became 'awoken' with the powers of the Dimensional Knight. But as the Cosmos healed more and more people emerged with these skills, and once again old grudges started to heat up.

Admits all this rising doom there is a new group. The Order of Nature. Knights within this Order are sometimes referred too as Chaos Knights. This Order is made up of loosely organized cells of people not always following the same ideology as what the Order of Nature banner seems to represent. The main gist is that all these rifts and Gates are natural and that we should let them take their course. There is no need, nor no one has the right to impose there will on nature. Some prefer a more loose interpretation. Such as: "Just enjoy the now" or "Do whatever feels best for the Dimension you are in." Either case the Order of Nature tries to make sure Gates 'naturally' run there course even if that means possibly harming people. A lot of the members of The Order of Nature are made up of ex-members of the other orders. They mostly group up just to seek protection as leaving one of the other Orders is punishable by death.

The Order of Unity: In the "Gate Traveler" Talent the Unity Knight gets to add their Character Advantage Die too "stabilize" and "close" actions on any spacetime anomalies.

Friendly Portal: Gained at 1st level. A Knight of Unity can open a temporary portal to a friendly location. Although the location is random they can safely assume that it is not harmful. The Gate is quickly closed 1 minute after opening. This action cannot be done while in combat.

The Temple is My Home: At 9th level a Dimension Knight is gains the 'No Place Like Home'. However, a Unity Knight also gains instant access to a 'Temple' or safe haven and can use this talent to access that location at 5th level. Only other Unity Knights are aware of and allowed to enter. This is automatically added to there list of places to open a gate too and doesn't count toward there total number of places they can 'mark'. At 9th level they gain the normal talent and all its abilities.

Singularity: At 10th level the Unity Knight is able to concentrate on a single spot in there mind and cause spacetime to bend onto itself generating a micro singularity that lives only for a nanosecond. However the destruction of anything within 5ft is severe. And all objects within a 20ft radius are moved by 10ft towards the singularity.

This requires a full round action of concentration. A Wisdom Check with a DC20. The damage is Xd6 + Wisdom Mod gravity damage(Gravity is a special damage type that has no DR associated with it). The X is equal to the number the check beat the DC by with a max limit of 10. So a roll of 24 would do 4d6 gravity damage plus characters Wisdom Mod. This can only be successfully done once per day. At Character level 20 this can change to twice a day.

The Order of Divergent: In the "Gate Traveler" Talent the Divergent Knight gets to add their Character Advantage Die too "make unstable" and "open" actions on any spacetime anomalies.

Bend to my Will: Gained at 1st level. This allows the Divergent Knight to use there powers to cause internal damage to a target. The damage can be non-lethal and can be done to 'soften' a person up and gives the Divergent Knight advantage when doing an Intimidation check afterward. If in combat the Divergent Knight can use this to cause intense distracting pain on the target that gives them the Shaken for 1d4 rounds. The Divergent Knight takes a full round action and rolls a Wisdom check. The target must roll an opposing check. If the opposing check is successful then nothing happens. This can only be done once per combat.

Extra Combat Training: Gained at 5th level. This gains the Divergent Knight another Feat from the Melee Weapon Combat category.

The Divided: Gained at 10th level. The Divergent Knight summons the explosive force of a Singularity from another Dimension to 'dump' its power for a split second into this Dimension forming a White Whole that reverses entropy and even time itself while causing extreme damage.

This requires a Full Round action and a Wisdom check of DC20. The damage is Xd6 Kinetic/Energy/Thermal/Chemical damage, damage from all damage types. This means that if someone is weak against a particular type then it deals double damage. However not the same could be said if you are strong against another type. The X is equal to the number the check beat the DC by with a max limit of 10. The radius is 30ft. This can only be performed successfully once per day.

The Order of Nature: In the "Gate Traveler" Talent the Nature Knight gets to add an advantage bonus to Survival checks when traveling through a dimensional Gate.

Sense Knight: Gained at 1st level. This ability is honed by learning how to avoid other Knights from other Orders that attempt to hunt you down. When a Passive or normal Perception check is required the DC for noticing the presence of another night is 1/2 that of the opposing stealth check.

Master of Tricks: Gained at 5th level. Gain another Trick but you do not need to obey Order restrictions.

Into Chaos: Gained at 10th level. The Nature Knight attempts to perform some advanced trick he has seen great Knights from other orders preform. But with little training and even less care of the overall results so long as its 'cool' or at least useful the craft of summoning such power into this Dimension is not perfectly honed.

The Player rolls a percentile dice. If 1-30% the damage is: 6d8 with a radius of 30ft. If 31-60% its an explosion with a radius of 20ft and 6d10 of damage. If its 61-90% its an implosion that deals 3d8 and causes characters that fail an Acrobatics check against DC15 to be flat footed because they fell over. They also all move 5ft toward the implosion. And 91-100% causes a two way temporary Gate to open up and suck all combats and objects within a 150ft radius in to a random alternate universe. The Gate will only stay open for 1d4 hours and then will collapse causing massive damage within roughly 100 mile radius if not stabilized with a DC of 15.

The range of the 'Into Nature' attack is 100ft and the Nature Knight has to have line of sight. This requires a Full Round action and a Wisdom Check of D20. This can only be performed once per day.

Science continues to expand the knowledge of the human form. As well as all other species biology. Advanced Civilizations have not wasted such information. Wishing to bring the best out its people, different governments, religious groups, and various factions have followed the lessons learned to know what specific exercise, diet, vitamin supplements, and even advance surgical operations are necessary to help shape the best of whatever species is in question. Most governments have programs for helping make enhanced super soldiers, while religious groups may use this knowledge to help define a strict discipline routine for devout followers. Other factions may have different potentially sinister plans.

The term Dreadnought was coined at some point in history, and it has stuck for thousands of years. Likely because of the people that underwent these regimes became like the Dreadnought Spaceships used in war. Dreadnoughts are fearsome ships with both a massive amount of armor and weapons. Sometimes referred to as the "Walking Tank" a Dreadnought excels at breaking down foes while simultaneously being able to take a beating. Making a Dreadnought the perfect elite unit for military or other militant groups. Most people who consider themselves to be such are so of their own free will and follow a strict code, disciple, or some form of ideology. Usually swearing alliance to a government or other type of faction.

Choose the Dreadnought to be able to plow through foes and obstacles while withstanding massive amounts of punishment.

Dreadnought's Class Features

The following class features pertain to the Dreadnought Advanced Class.

Ability Surge: Starting at Dreadnought 1st level, the Dreadnought's uses her training and advanced physiology to push her self to the limits. When doing this they focus on a particular goal above all else and with raw force of git they attempt to achieve that goal at all cost. It provides a +4 to both Strength and Constitution for 1 + Constitution Mod number of rounds. They also gain disadvantage on Wisdom saves. If the goal is achieved before then they can calm themselves down. Once no longer surging a Dreadnought is Fatigued. If already Fatigued then they are Exhausted. If already Exhausted then they become Unconscious.

When this happens the Dreadnought gains temporary health equal to 2 * Dreadnought level. So A level 4 Dreadnought that surges would gain 8 additional temporary health. This health goes away once they calm down. If that would bring them down to zero or below it instead bring them down too 1.

Tirelessly: At 9th level, the Dreadnought calls upon there intense training and mental grit to temporarily overcome how tired they may be. Removing any effect of Fatigue or if Exhausted they are not just Fatigued. They can only do this once per day. If in Combat this is a considered a Simple Action.

Finial Strike: If they kill an enemy with a critical hit or perform a 'Coup de Grace' or preform Massive Damage (do damage equal to 50% or more of target health in a single round) to a target then the Dreadnought can freely Surge at the end of the turn and gain a Bonus Attack action. Or if already Surging then the surge round counter is reset. This can only happen 1 + Dreadnought's Constitution Mod times per day.

A scientist may make grand discoveries about the universe and our place in it. But Engineers are the ones that exploit those findings and make them useful and piratical in everyday life. Engineers are the cornerstone of modern civilizations. They make sure that society keeps moving day-to-day. Silently working in the background repairing the machines of industry. However, some do not like the mundane quite life that is hidden in the shadows of civilization. Some venture forth and try their luck out in the galactic frontier. Or in some other exciting position that brings an escape from monotony.

Software has been known to be extremely flexible, especially for artificial intelligence. However, the hardware is not. And hardware is the engineer's forte. Out in the galaxy, there is an unknown amount of unimaginable obstacles to face. Engineers are known for their knowledge of how things work, how to fix things and make them more efficient. They can often bypass security measures or whip up special weapons or equipment in the field. It would be ridiculous for a team of colonizers to not bring an engineer to a new unknown planet. The job of an engineer can mean life and death for all involved. Those willing to leave there comfortable life, there sheltered workshops, garages and shipyards may find riches and adventure.

Choose Engineer if you want your character to excel at crafting, modifying, repairing, and disabling electrical and mechanical equipment, including weapons.

The fastest path into this advanced class is through the Path of Intelligence(Smart Hero), though other paths are possible.

Requirements: To qualify to become an Engineer, a character must fulfill the following criteria.

Level: At least Level 2
Path: Path of Intelligence OR Ability: Intelligence Score 15+ OR Ability: Constitution Score 15+ and Intelligence of 12+

Restrictions:

Class Information:

Ability Affinity: Intelligence and Constitution

Class Skills: The Engineer’s class skills are as follows. Computer Use (Int), Craft [ Electronic, Mechanical, Structural ](Int), Disable Device (Int), Choose Any Three Knowledge(Int), Study(Int)

Quick Construction: At Engineer 1st level, an engineer learns how to craft general equipment such as scratch-built electronic, mechanical, and structural objects more quickly than normal. When using the Craft (electronic), Craft (mechanical), or Craft (structural) skill to build General Equipment item, the Engineer reduces the building time by 1/2.

At 5th level, the Engineer reduces the building time of ordinary objects and masterworked objects by half.

Professional Repair: At 1st level, an Engineer has improved ways of repairing robots, vehicles, power armor, etc... An Engineer with the correct Professional Kit or appropriate facility (ie: workshop, or hanger) can gain bonuses to repair damage to a robot, vehicles, power armor, spaceships and so on. The DC and Time are no longer based on the Repair rules. This takes 1 hour of work. This can also be done in combat but requires an additional +5 to the DC check and full round action. Review the table to the right for more info.

For Space Ships this provides an Advantage to Repair checks to remove Battle Damage.

Beyond the Specifications: At 2nd level, an Engineer can upgrade weapons and equipment to provide temporary improvements to performance that go beyond the object normal specifications. It requires a full round action and the full access to the target object. The effect lasts for 1d4 turns. However if the Engineer takes there time for 2 full round actions the object gains the bonus for 1d8 + 1 rounds. Once the object has been boosted it cannot be boosted again for 1 hour.

Reconfigure Weapon: At 3rd level, an Engineer can reconfigure a melee or ranged weapon, improving one aspect of it. Reconfigure a weapon requires 1 hour of work and a successful Repair check (DC 20); reconfigure a masterworked weapon is slightly harder (DC 20 + the weapon’s masterworked bonus feature). An Engineer may take 10 or take 20 on this check. The reconfiguration is based on the Advanced Weapon Creation rules and allows for an already constructed weapon to be modified according to the Engineer's crafting skill effectively the Engineer can re-craft the weapon. However, the weapon cannot change its Style or Arch-Type nor can its Weapon Level change. Its Speed/Power levels can be adjusted and any of its attributes can also be changed according to the Weapon Creation rules. The Engineer can re-craft the weapon to be Masterworked according to crafting rules or Up-Tech to whatever the Engineer's Tech Level is.

Overload: At 4th level and beyond, the Engineer as a standard action, can cause a short in an electronic device. This includes any ranged or melee weapon that is not a Kinetic Arch-Type. This makes the target of the overload nonfunctional for 1 round. Overload doesn't cause locked door, safe, or other such devices to open, but it prevents anyone from opening it for the duration of the effect. The Hero must be adjacent to the device to use this Talent. If the target of the Overload is a living sentient thing then it may attempt a Dexterity Save to negate the effect for DC of 10 + Engineer Level + Intelligence Mod. Once an electronic device has been overloaded it cannot be overloaded again for 1 minute. WIth a DC15 the overload can become an improvised Electronic Explosive Device. It must be used by next round of combat or within roughly 3 seconds and causes 1d6+Int Mod of Electronic Damage. At 6th, 8th and 10th level the damage increases by +1d6.

Bonus Feat: At 5th level the Engineer can gain a Bonus Feat for free and can pick from the following categories: Path Plus, Misc Feats, Melee Weapon Combat, Ranged Combat, Space Ship Operations.

Engineer's Eye: At 6th level, the Engineer gets a +2 to Perception and Passive Perception when within 20ft of a trap, malfunctioning computer, or on board a spaceship with malfunctioning systems.

Effects on Space Ships. An engineer can perform the Boost effect on any system of there choosing so long as they are near a working console on board the ship. They also gain a bonus to all Boost checks of 1/2 there current Engineering level roundup.

Combat Mechanics Training: At 7th level, the Engineer can choose to take an upgrade to either the Melee, Ranged or Armor Proficiency Tree regardless if it takes 1 or 2 points. Or the Engineer can choose to take gain the Power Armor Expert Feat.

Extra Curricular Training

Software Engineering: The Engineer gets a +1 Misc Bonus to Computer Use and the Quick Construction talent now applies to virus crafting.
Electrical Engineering: The Engineer gets a free Rank in Craft Electronics. The Engineer picks a 'favored' item from General Equipment that is considered small size or smaller and requires Electronics to craft. The Engineer can now craft that item with spare parts on hand in 1 round of combat or under 1 minute in real time. If in combat the Engineer must roll an Intelligence check of DC12 or else that round is wasted. The Engineer can keep trying until it is complete.
Mechanical Engineering: The Engineer gets a free Rank in Craft Mechanics. This is also just like Electrical Engineering except the General Equipment item requires Mechanics instead of Electronics.

Trained Professional: A 9th-level Engineer can perform complicated tasks as free actions after completing an Intelligence check.

During any round in which the Engineer uses the Computer Use, Craft, Disable Device, or Repair skill, he can first make an Intelligence check (DC 15) to use the desired skill as a free action. Making the Intelligence check doesn’t cost the Engineer an action.

Engineering Miracle

At level 10 the Engineer can pull off feats of engineering wonder. They can use their mastery of the trade to provide bonuses or repairs that could only be described and borderline miraculous. They can use this ability once per day starting as a full round action. At Character Level 15 it becomes twice per day and at Character Level 20 it becomes 3 times per day. The effect depends on the object you are modifying.

Armor: Adds a +1 AC bonus and +2 DR to armor for 1 minute.
Weapon: Adds advantage to both Accuracy and dealing damage (which includes each Extra Damage) for 1 minute.
Spaceship Structure: Instantly repairs one Battle Damage.

Ambassadors, Diplomats, Dignitaries, Consultants, Legits, Emissaries, etc. can all fall under the title of an Envoy. With a natural talent for dealing with disputes as small as individuals and as massive as whole nations or civilizations. Envoys are desired across the galaxy. Armed with a heightened awareness of local politics, and a wide range of ideologies and philosophies the Envoy strives to find a compromise to avoid an otherwise ugly confrontation both for herself and for others. The Envoy will attempt all this without compromising their integrity or betraying the trust placed in them as representatives of factions, nations, worlds, whole civilizations.

An Envoy chooses a faction, nation or some other type of recognized group to swear allegiance too. As long as that Envoy does not fail to represent her faction, then she is entitled to privileges beyond the rights of ordinary citizens.

Envoy's Class Features

Plenipotentiary Privileges: Starting at Envoy 1st level, if the Envoy is arrested for a crime, she can make a Diplomacy check to invoke her diplomatic credentials and not suffer the usual legal penalty or punishment. The severity of the crime determines the DC of the Diplomacy check. The standard DC for simple infractions is DC10. A crime like murder may be a DC25 check unless it is of an important person then perhaps 35 or higher. If one of the Envoy's consuls (see the select consul class feature, below) is arrested for a crime and unable to secure her own release, the Envoy may intercede on the consul’s behalf. One may aid the other’s Diplomacy check. An Envoy who routinely invokes the privilege of diplomatic immunity—either on her own behalf or to protect her selected consuls—is likely to be recalled or terminated by those she has sworn to represent.

She can more easily detect forgeries or produce her own as well. Advantage when attempting to identify the origin, purpose, authenticity, or value of an official document. Also an advantage when attempting to make a forgery of an official document.

Restricted Access: At 7th level, the Envoy gains clearance to access restricted files or classified information from any source that recognizes her faction, organization, nation, world, or galactic empire. She gains a +2 Misc bonus on Study checks.

Upper Management: At 8th level, the Envoy gains the Manager feat for free.

Demanding Presence: At 10th level the Envoy can use their years of experience, their connections, or lastly just their wit to intimidate an opponent. Either in combat or in normal play. In normal play, the Envoy can roll an Intimidate check twice and take the roll that they favor. In combat, the target of the Talent takes a Standard Action and the target rolls an opposing Wisdom check. (In opposing checks the DC is the result of the roll from the instigator, in this case, the Envoy's Intimidate check). If the target fails they Frightened for 1d6 turns. Each turn the target can use the same Wisdom check to attempt to shack off what they heard and saw. The Envoy can keep wounding them each turn. If successful each turn the target gets more and more intimidated. If already Frightened they can become Cowering, if already Cowering they can become Panicked. If they succeeded the check and they are already one of these conditions the previous condition doesn't go away. The turn counter of 1d6 turns doesn't reset itself if the Envoy is successful on the same target more then once. The Envoy can only do this 1 + 1/4th there Envoy level round up per day.

Envoy's Allegiances

Corporation[s] Entity

Corporation or group/federation of corporations can be big enough to have the galactic influence they may have Envoys on their side. Not too be mistaken with a lobbyist who focuses there attention solely on influencing local governments. Envoy's that work for Corporations travel the galaxy making sure Corporate interests are understood and as peacefully as possible upheld. A Corporation may use an Envoy too smooth over ties with an indigenous population on a planet that has to deal with the Corporation. For example, it may be mining it and causing a lot of disturbance. The Envoy could be sent to peacefully resolve the situation. Envoys ensure that conflicts of any kind do not get in the way of Corporation goals.

Bonus: Insider Knowledge: A bonus too Diplomacy and Intimidate checks equal to the Envoy Class level when dealing with any Corporation personnel. An advantage bonus too Computer Use checks when attempting to get information from a computer owned by a corporation. The class also receives the Knowledge Business as a Class skill and gets a Misc +2 bonus too it.

Small to Medium Sized Government

A small or medium government in the Milky Way galaxy means any space-faring government that has not expanded influence beyond a few systems. They would not be considered an empire or be well know. However locally they would be regarded as very powerful. Envoy's that work for these governments would like to be used to expand there influence beyond the systems they control. Because of there smaller size, most Envoys would likely swear alliance hoping to move quickly up the ranks. With less competition then in other sectors, smaller governments provide more opportunity.

Bonus: Ambitious: The Envoy is more likely to get promoted. Advantage bonus too Profession checks. The Envoy also gains an advantage bonus to the Intimidate checks when dealing with government agencies. The Envoy even gets Knowledge Local as a class skill with a Misc +2 to the skill.

Large or Empire Government

There are many empires that have exists or still exist in the galaxy. The Ring of Life is massive and spacious and has afforded much room and resources for many great civilizations to co-exist if not for just a while. Envoys are prized members in these great nations. Their uses vary from internal affairs of state to problems abroad. Envoys will be seen dealing with subjugated planets to help dispirit any rebellions. Lead talks on trade disputes between nations. Secretly invigorate ill will in another countries weaker planets. All for the sake of maintaining and strengthening the Empire.

Bonus: Powerful connections: The Envoy has connections all over the galaxy that can provide information or get her out of trouble. -5 too all the DCs associated with the "Diplomatic Immunity" table. The class also receives the Knowledge Civics as a Class skill and gets a Misc +2 bonus too it. The Envoy also gets an advantage +2 to Intimidate checks when dealing with government agencies.

Religious Institution

Most religions are only popular local to the planet of origin. However, Empires and trade spread ideas across the Ring, and some religions have fared well. These mega religions have power and influence and Envoys are their peaceful arm. A religious group may be concerned that its followers are not getting the attention they need in government or afraid that a powerful mega-corporation is going to act without considered the people it will effect. When this is the case, religions often use Envoys to make there will know to the people, governments, and corporations. Sometimes Envoys are sent to work in secret while others walk openly and proudly about there faith. Envoys would likely swear alliance solely because their convictions are true.

Bonus: Strong Convictions: The Envoy who swears alliance to a religious institution has an advantage bonus to Wisdom saves. Also, the Envoy gets a +1 bonus to Int and Wis Modifiers when someone is attempting to Bluff,Intimidate or use Diplomacy against them.

Crime Syndicate

You represent the will of a powerful syndicate. Many powerful individuals within organized crime use someone other than themselves to represent there wishes within the governments they operate. Sometimes these people are Lawyers or Politicians or a Business Consultant, but one then is in common. These people are respected and very wealthy. In part because of the crime syndicate and in part because of there own ambitions. When working for a Crime Syndicate an Envoy is expected to be able to get people out of jail when they most certainly deserve to be there; they are expected to provide inside information to the 'Boss' or whoever they report too. The Envoy may smuggle money into more official channels from less official ones and whine and dine with the elite of society to make sure 'Family' or 'Business' is always seen as important, respected, official. No funny business too see here.

Bonus: Corruption: Instantly start off with $20,000 credits. Gain an advantage when using the Plenipotentiary Privileges talent. Replace the Upper Management talent with Well Informed. This provides an advantage bonus when using the Diplomacy Gather Information skill check.

Rebel Cause

At some point, we all have to choose. Some simply see the horror in the Ring and must do something about it. Sometimes the person that makes that choice is a charismatic individually with leadership written on there face. However, they were late to the movement. There already is a leader. But what about a spokesperson? What about the person that once enjoyed and understood the other side. Someone willing to meet in the middle and possibly even respected by both. All good lasting rebellions or at least any rebellion that had a ghost of a chance had someone like that. Someone not at the top nor the bottom but still powerful and respected that could reach out to the 'enemy' and find common ground. Either it is to discuss hostage release or to build a foundation towards peace. An Envoy who dedicates herself to a Rebel cause will become its leader's right hand, and you will become a powerful force for change.

Bonus: Rebel: Loose 1/2 your credit score. Take disadvantage on the Plenipotentiary Privileges talent. Replace 'Stipend' with Negotiator. This provides +1 Misc score to either Diplomacy, Bluff, Intimidate, Sense Motive at 1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th level.

Some species are more excepting of in-plants and cybernetics then others. One such species, The Cryous, where at war and loosing fast. Desperate for a new form of super soldier they took advantage of there already existing sense of electromagnetism inherit in there species to create a unique kind of Cybernetics.

This set is specifically designed to make the user aware of electromagnetism as if it was an additional sense and can also gather energy in the form of electricity and manipulate it at a local scale.

With these super soldiers, the Cryous were able to overcome the massive numbers of ground troops that were being used against them. Eventually, the war ended in a stalemate and shaky truce. For years the Electro-Mancer Cybernetic Implant Set (EMCIS) was held as a tightly guarded secret, but eventually, it was let out. Now all of the citizens of the Milky-Way's Great Ring of Life can enjoy this powerfully themed set of implants.

The Savant can stack effects by continuing to 'level up' the Technique.; Note: Performing a Technique 'as if it was a higher level' means that if the Technique was a level 1 technique, the Technique would be treated as if the Character was using an lvl 2 technique. Saying that if the Character had already used all their level 2 techniques for the day, they would not be able to use this technique. It also means that the DC for saving throws is higher in some cases. As the DC is usually 10 + Technique Level + Ability Modifier (Int)

Sheer Force: At 8th level, the Electric Savant's natural Electric attack now as DR of Electric Savant's Intelligence mod (Max 5) and does x3 Critical Damage.

An Erie quite settles onto the cabin. The only sound left is the hum of motors below crawling up the soldier's legs as if being forced out of the air from the opposing silence. Faces shocked and full of despair. Not looking up, afraid to see the empty sits where their comrades should be. Jacob, standing, holding onto a tether hanging from the ceiling to keep his balance as the vehicle hurriedly sends what's left of his team across the bumpy landscape, looks at the faces of his men and realized he was losing them. The defeat was too much for them. Without the right words, the moral would be lost, and he knows what would happen next. "First," he thought to himself, "I must not let them see me down."

The Field Officer is a natural leader with the heart of a warrior. He understands how to direct allies and lead by example. The Field Officer has the tactical expertise and uses such knowledge to coordinate armed forces in the battlefield. He is not afraid to get into the thick of things himself especially if it means completing the mission at hand. Field Officers are seen commanding counter-terrorism teams, a group of trained soldiers, or even undisciplined mercs. Even pirates may find themselves taking advantage of a natural leader and assign someone of such skill as a first mate to help keep the people in line.

A Player will choose Field Officer if they want a Character to be the one who takes charge in crisis or leads others into battle as well as providing knowledge and expertise that can be helpful to the group as a whole.

As long as the Field Officer is within 30ft + 5ft per Wisdom Mod, the Field officer can choose to provide the +1 Bonus to either Accuracy, Saving throws or Checks. Each turn the Field Officer can choose which aspect to improve. Teammates can choose to ignore this Bonus and perform there move before the success or failure of the Field Officer is determined.

At 5th level Field Officer this bonus changes to +2. At 10th level this bonus changes to +3.

Encouraging Speech: At 2nd level, the Field Officer uses there dictating skills to provide an encouraging speech of valor. This can affect any teammate within 60ft or can ear the person over a communication device. The roll is a Charisma check DC12 + 2 for every affected person. The speech can remove effects such as Frightened, Cowering, Panicked, and Fatigued.

This can only be done once per combat encounter.

Uncanny Survival: Beginning at 3rd level, a Field Officer can add one-half his class level to his AC for 1 round, once per day. (The bonus applies to the Field Officer’s touch and flat-footed AC, as well.) He must declare he is doing this at the beginning of his turn, and the AC bonus lasts until his next round of actions.

At 9th level this can be done twice a day.

Coordinate Attack: Granted at 4th level, the Field Officer points out the target they are aiming at. If you are successful then for every other teammate, up to the Field Officer's Charisma Mod, who is also successful at a Melee or Ranged accuracy check on the target that round they gain 1d4 of extra damage. At 8th Character Level the damage dice is 1d6. At 12th it is 1d10 and at 16th Character level this is 1d12. This can only be done when there are more than 1 targets left. If there is only one enemy left, then it is obvious all friendlies would be targeting it.

This requires a Free action and can only do this 1 + 1 every 5 Character levels per day. So at level 10 they can do this 3 times, and at 20 this can be done 5 times.

Bonus Feat: At 5th level, the Field Officer gains a Bonus Feat from one of the following categories: Misc Feats, Ranged Combat, Leadership & Companions.

Inspiring Speech: Starting on the 6th level, the Field Officer can provide a stirring speech or perform some otherwise inspiring action that encourages his teammates.

However if something was to happen to the Field Officer such as Dying, or any of the following conditions: Frightened, Cowering, Panicked, Exhausted, Pinned, Sickened, Shaken, Dazed, Stunned, Paralyzed, Incapacitated. If the Field Officer is killed the Protege is seriously taken back by this and gains disadvantage for 1d4 weeks and/or 1d8 of the next combat encounters.

The Field Officer cannot quickly change Proteges. Once one is picked, it should be months or years before another one can be selected. However, if the Field Officer feels they made the wrong choice they can switch to another Character early. (It is up to the GM how early is early). The previous Protege is taken back by this and gains disadvantage for 1d4 of the next combat encounters.

Commanding Presence: At 8th level, the Field Officer can now distract a target and make it focus on the Field Officer. The Field Officer rolls a Diplomacy or Intimidate check (which the player prefers) to attempt to force a target to pay attention to them. The target rolls an apposing Wisdom save. If successful they ignore the Field Officer. If they fail the target redirects their attention to the Field Officer.

Follow My Lead: On the 9th level, the Field Officer can inspire others to do what he does. If declared before an attack (which must then be successful) or immediately after a Critical attack the Field Officer can roll a Charisma save of DC16 + 3 for every effecting member (The Field Officer can choose to ignore some allies to reduce the DC). If successful each member gains advantage when attacking the target the Field Officer just attacked for the next 1d4 turns.

Most choose not to mess with Nature too much. Science has always tittered on the fringes of what society deems acceptable to allow. Pushing against the wall of morality is to some scientists their duty. Helix Warrior's are examples of those experiments scientist do that sometimes pushes too hard against that wall. Genetic Modification is one of the big Great Filters of any Civilization. People, sometimes willing however usually not, subjected to rigorous "scientific" experimentation. Their DNA manipulated to purge anything deemed undesirable and is considered a "flaw." Some call this "forced evolution." Most call it eugenics. Some Civilizations allow such practices while most others do not. All capable Civilizations do it at some point.

Some Helix Warrior's come out with no adverse side effects and use their abilities to help others or at the very least help themselves. Others are not as lucky. Either case Helix Warrior's manifest new abilities that make them into, more resilient super-soldiers, security guards, law enforcement officers and many more things.

The Lepidonains had a vast empire. They where second too none. Except for the Cryous. Their rivalry came to ahead in The Great Waring Years. The Cryous had created a new masterful set of implants to empower their soldiers. This helped take the Lepidona's ground troop superiority away. As a response, the Lepidonians made a suit/cybernetic implant set combo in hopes to outdo their competitors. The set was the Shield Integration Suit and Cybernetic Combat Set. It was nicknamed the Shield Splicer Combat Suit, and nowadays people that use them are called Shield Splicers.

The technology was inevitably leaked, and the rest of the Galaxy has been tweaking and improving upon the design for centuries. Mainly for war, the suits are sometimes outlawed. Many mercenary groups, pirates, thugs and other more criminal groups employee wearers of such suits. Since work is hard to buy if you dedicate a portion of your life to wearing a suit half, the galaxy has outlawed most Shield Splicers don't have a choice. And thus a stereotype was born.

To curb the lousy rapport new more defensive versions of the Suit where made. With the suit being more prevalent on the outskirts of space many isolated locations started to use them to help defend themselves. Monasteries had their monks devote time to learning the suit as a defense and healing tool.

Player's Choose the Shield Splicer if they want Characters that can manipulate shields as if the shield was a sixth sense. And use them to either protect allies defensively or crush enemies in a nearly invisible clutch of a super high field of force.

The fastest path is through either the Path of Constitution(Tough Hero) or the Path of Wisdom(Dedicated Hero)

Requirements: To qualify to become a Shield Splicer, a character must fulfill the following criteria.

Level: At least Level 2
Path: Path of Constitution OR Path: Path of Wisdom OR Ability: Constitution Score 15+ with Wis score of 12+ OR Ability: Wisdom Score 15+ with Con score of 12+

Restrictions:

Advance Class: Cannot also be an Electro-Mancer
Cannot wear power armor.

Ability Affinity: Constitution and Wisdom

Class Skills: The Shield Splicer’s class skills are as follows. Acrobatics (Dex), Athletics (Str), Choose One Craft: [ Mechanical, Structural ](Int), Choose Any One Knowledge(Int), Survival (Wis), Treat Injury (Wis)

Technique Ability Affinity: The Shield Splicer uses their Constitution ability to perform Techniques.

Extra Info: At level 1 the Shield Splicer either chooses the Shield Wielder or a Shield Defender path. The choice is based on what Path you have. Constitution makes you a Shield Wielder and Wisdom makes you a Shield Defender.

Shield Splicer's Class Features

NOTE: The effects of *ALL* the talents that provide shields to an ally can only effect that ally as long as they are within a certain range of the Shield Splicer. The range is 60ft + 10ft per Wisdom Mod. If they move past that range, they loose whatever effect the Shield Splicer gave them and returned back in range will not bring the effect back unless the Shield Splicer spends the time to use the talent again if possible.

Self Shielded: Starting at Shield Splicer 1st level, the Shield Splicer can imbue themselves with a shield that provides temporary health. The health increase is equal to Shield Splicer level + (2 * Wisdom Mod). This can only be done once per combat. And can just be done too oneself. It requires a Standard Action.

Sense Shield: At 1st level, the Shield Splicer can more easily sense things that project shields. The DC for a Passive or normal Perception check is reduced by 5 for detecting any shielded object regardless if it is hidden. Clocking is a form of shield. The object has to be within 60ft of the Shield Splicer.

Bonus Feat: At 5th level, the Shield Splicer gets a Bonus Feat from one of the following categories: Misc Feats or Techniques.

Disrupt Shield: Upon 7th level, the Shield Splicer gets the ability to disrupt a shield. The Shield Splicer can directly target a shield with there mind that they are within 60ft + 5ft per Conn Mod. The further they reach out the more it hurts and the more damage they inflict also causes physical strain on their bodies. This requires a Constitution check DC15 + 1 for every damage dealt with the shield systems. These are the shield systems of Power Armor, a Personal Force Field or some built-in shield device. The 'health' of these systems is described as Hard Points or HP for short (Just like Hit Points/HP). Most items if they do not specify having 20 HP or 30 if it is Masterworked.. Power Armor's is 20 + 1 per Power Armor Grade. Personal Force Field is 20 for standard and 30 for Masterworked.

This requires a Full Round action in combat. If not in combat it is assumed that the Shield Splicer can eventually break past the shield. However, they roll a Constitution check DC20 to see if they become Fatigued afterward. They cannot preform this action while Fatigued or Exhausted.

Shield Wielder(Conn)

This talent tree is for a Shield Splicer that has at least 2 lvls in the Constitution Path.

Shield Attack: At 2nd level, the Shield Wielder gains the ability to mold a shield into a small concentrated sphere to cause damage at a range. This is considered a natural attack. The Range is Small (100ft). Its damage is 1d6 + Conn Mod. Damage type is Kinetic, Kinetic. (Please review the Damage Type section in the Advance Weapon Creation rules to learn about double damage types). The Shield Wielder uses Dexterity still too aim however she uses Constitution Mod as a bonus to damage.

Shield Wielder Novice: Starting at 4th level, the Shield Wielder can now preform 1/2 his Con modifier extra lvl 0 and lvl 1 Techniques

Focused Shield Attack: Upon 6th level, the Shield Wielder's Shield Attack has now been improved upon. The range is now Medium (300ft) Damage: 1d8 + Conn Mod (DR2)

Advanced Shield Wielder: At the 8th level, the Shield Wielder can now preform 1/2 his Con modifier extra lvl 2 and level 3 Techniques

Greater Shield Attack: At 10th level, the Shield Wielder's Shield Attack has now been improved to its ultimate form. Ranged Large (900ft) Damage: 1d10 + Conn Mod (DR4) x3 Critical.

Master Shield Wielder: Upon 10th level, the Shield Wielder can 'Expand' a Technique by preforming the technique by using a higher level slot. This can provide them with one of the following boosts. Double the damage/effect, treated as a simple action, double range. This can be done multiple times by continuing to improve the level of the Technique if possible to stack the effects. The damage cannot be chosen more than twice.; Note: Preforming a Technique 'as if it was a higher level' means that if the Technique were a level 1 technique, the Technique would be treated as if the Character was using an lvl 2 technique. Meaning that if the Character had already used all their level 2 techniques for the day they would not be able to use this technique. It also means that the DC for saving throws is higher in some cases. As the DC is usually 10 + Technique Level + Ability Modifier (Int)

Shield Defender(Wis)

This talent tree is for a Shield Splicer that has at least 2 levels in the Wisdom Path.

Selfless Shield: Starting at 2nd level, the Shield Defender can use there Self Shielded talent on others. It is considered a ranged touch attack. With a range of 30ft + 5ft per Conn Mod. The Shield now provides temporary Hit Points equal to Shield Splicer level + (2 * Conn Mod) + (2 * Wis Mod). However, the shield can only be active on one person at a time which includes yourself. Once deactivated wither by choice from the Shield Wielder or because it ran out of Hit Points it requires 1 turn of cool down and then can be used again.

Substitution: At 4th level, as a standard action, the Shield Defender can create a faint shield presence around a target. Whenever that target is attacked the Shield Splicer can choose to roll a Wisdom check and absorb 1/2 of the result as damage onto themselves instead of the target. The Shield Defender's Conn Mod acts as DR for the damage they adsorb. But no other DR counts.

Improved Force Wall: Starting on the 6th level, the Shield Defender can use Force Wall as a Simple action. Or for a Standard Action use it as a higher slot technique to double all its effects.

Improved Cloak: At 8th level, the Shield Defender can use Cloak as a Simple action on herself or a friendly target as a touch attack. Only one Cloak can be active at a time.

Healing Chamber: Upon 10th level, the Shield Defender can warp a protective shield around a target as a touch attack. They can even target themselves. The shield helps hold in the air where a concentration of healing gas is pumped in. This is a special simple device that the Shield Defender can craft. It can contain a healing concoction or healing regeneration potion with an extra concentrated dose. The Shield Defender will have to craft the concoction herself or buy it. And she cannot use this Talent without the item. This slowly releases the concoction crafted within the shield designed especially to help concentrate the gas to the most wounded areas. If it is a Healing Concoction then it provides 1d4 turns at 1/2 the health restored per turn. If it is a Regenerative Concoction then it acts as normal but lasts twice as long.

The job of a fighter pilot is a tough and dangerous one. Years of intense training never genuinely prepare a Starfighter for their first combat experience. Spewed from a mother ship in a blur, they see in an instant a massive on-slot of thousands of other little ships so small they are barely visible against the canvas of stars that makes up the milky-way. The scene is illuminated in flashes by weapon fire almost seaming to twinkle like the stars. An awe-inspiring sight of modern violence. Most do not survive this first chaotic experience. But this is sadly the best way to weed out those that can and those that cannot. Most choose this path because they are thrill seekers and hotshots who think they are invincible.

If a Starfighter has survived more then a few dozen of these battles then likely they are among the greatest in the galaxy in piloting ships. They hone there skills being able to perceive all that is around them in three dimensions as the enemy and friendly ships alike dart in and out of there limited cot-pit view. Most, realizing their mortality, and end their service at such point and put their skills to use in much less dangerous and more lucrative positions. From flying the ships of dignitaries to pirating, to flying support for a cargo run, they are recognized for their service even by nations that they did not fight for, and they are feared as the most exceptional pilots the galaxy has to offer.

Choose the Starfighter if you want your character to be an astrogatin', battleship-hatin' fighter jockey with confident skills in the pilot seat and elsewhere.

The fastest path into this advanced class is through the Path of Dexterity(Fast Hero), though other paths are certainly possible.

Requirements: To qualify to become a Starfighter, a character must fulfill the following criteria.

Level: At least Level 2
Path: Path of Dexterity OR Ability: Dexterity Score 15+ OR Ability: Charisma Score 15+ and Dexterity score of 12+

Restrictions:

Feats: Advanced Firearms Proficiency, Advanced Two-Weapon Fighting

Class Information:

Ability Affinity: Dexterity and Charisma

Class Skills: The Starfighter’s class skills are as follows. Acrobatics(Dex), Bluff(Cha), Pilot(Dex), Perception(Wis), Survival(Wis).

Starfighter's Class Features:

Pilot Training: Starting at Starfighter 1st level, a Starfighter automatically gains the Spaceship Helm Officer and Guide feats. The Starfighter uses his training and knowledge to better adept himself with all sorts of different spaceships. The Starfighter has an advantage when piloting any ship.

Reckless Behavior: The Starfighter's reckless nature can sometimes get them in trouble. This ability is granted at 1st level. At the start of combat, the Starfighter can 'jump the gun' to get off a Bonus Attack in a special surprise round just for his character. The Starfighter can choose to roll an Initiative check against a DC15 + Enemies Initiative Score. If successful the Starfighter preforms a single Bonus Attack. Then normal combat can start. This does not count if the team already has a surprise round. If the Starfighter chooses this course of action, however, he gets -2 AC for the first round of combat.

Sharp Reflexes: Starting at 2nd level, a Starfighter applies his new found skills in the form of an advantage bonus whenever he does a skill check, ability check, or saving throw made aboard a spaceship he is piloting.

The Starfighter also takes no damage when successfully doing a Dexterity saving throw from a Talent, Technique, or other such ability.

Dirty Fighting: At 2nd level the Starfighter can use his elite reflexes and piloting tricks to perform a quick trick to an enemy in combat. This talent has to be declared before the attack and can only be used successfully once per target. If the Starfighter successfully attacks a target, then they can also roll a Bluff check DC 12 + Charisma Mod. If successful the target takes no advantages and gains 1 disadvantage when attacking the Hero for the next 1d4 rounds.

At Character level 10 this changes to 1d6 rounds.

Do a barrel roll!: At 3rd level the Starfighter can perform an acrobat maneuver while piloting a spacecraft as a full round action. The ship gains a +4 bonus to AC until this next turn. The Starfighter can do this 1 + 1/4th his level round up in between rests. Full rest is required to use again.

Bonus Feat: The Starfighter gains a Bonus Feat at 3rd and 8th levels. You can choose from the following categories. Misc Feats, Space Ship Operations, Two-Weapon Fighting, Ranged Combat

Shake, Rattle, And Roll: At 4th level, a Starfighter learns how to rock an enemy spaceship with weapons fire. The Starfighter must declare that he is using this ability before making the attack roll (thus, a failed attack roll ruins the attempt). If the Starfighter is not also in control of the Weapons, the Weapons officer will need to make a successful hit for this to work. A spaceship damaged by the Starfighter’s attack is shaken for 1 round; all passengers and crewmembers (pilots and weapons officers included) aboard the shaken ship take a disadvantage penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks for 1 round. A Starfighter may use this ability once per day at 4th level, twice per day at 7th level, and three times per day at 10th level.

To the max!: At 5th level and beyond, a Starfighter can coax more thrust out of a ship’s engines, increasing its tactical speed by +500 feet per Engine Mod. The Starfighter must be piloting the ship to increase its tactical speed. The Engines will need to cool down for 1 minute before they can be used in that way again.

This also can be used by the Starfighter to push themselves physically in combat which increases the Starfighter's base speed by 5ft per Dexterity Mod for one round. This can only be done once per day.

Pilot's Awareness: At 6th level any ship the Starfighter starts too apply there acute senses learned from the near-death experiences of there carrier. They gain a +1 to Passive Perception and +1 Misc bonus to Perception skill checks.

Daredevil: At 6th level the Starfighter gains the Drive By Attack feat.

Intimidating Reputation: Any Starfighter who lived long enough to retire from service is considered threatening. But then add years more out adventuring, and they can be downright terrifying. At 7th level The Starfighter gets a +2 Misc bonus too Intimidate Skill checks. Also if the Starfighter is in the pilot seat of a crewed ship and another player attempts to Intimidate the enemy ship they can refer too there skilled Pilot at the helm and gain the same bonus.

Keep It Together: At 8th level, a Starfighter can continue to operate a spaceship even after it has been reduced to negative hit points and has begun breaking apart. However, the ship cannot be repaired and continues to lose 1 hit point per round, exploding once it reaches its destruction threshold. The Starfighter and all other personnel aboard the ship are considered shaken, taking a disadvantage penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks.

Cool Under Pressure: At 9th level the Starfighter now has an advantage when rolling saving throws against mind-altering effects both in combat and while piloting.

Pilot's Luck

Starting at 10th level, a Starfighter shows off there 'skill' or plan dumb luck as they do otherwise impossible feats of acrobatics or piloting. They can get Lucky once per day. However at Character Level 15 that changes to 2 times per day.

Ever meet someone where life always seams to go their way? Imagine someone who recognized this and used it to their advantage. The actions of a Swindler are almost always nefarious and are never just about skill. Its about Luck. Its about being at the right place at the right time... somehow. And it's about making Lady Luck sing your tune. Some follow a weird cult that believes in an all-powerful 'will' that embodies the universe and manifests itself in a way that can only be described as 'luck'. Some choose not to spend much time thinking about such things. While others believe in some ancient technology that somehow can be used to change probability. Whatever the case Swindler's have learned to throw themselves into "The Gamble." Gambling sometimes with there very own lives, and possibly others as well they attempt to cheat fate and win big.

Swindler's are usually easy going and never consider themselves to be tied to a single ideology. They typically do not have a strong loyalty to any nation or belief except possibly too themselves. Swindler's are usually looked down on by others as their lifestyle is often unorthodox. However, when they do work with others, they are commonly used as thieves/buglers or when running a crooked gambling casino. However some may attempt to use their abilities for good. Or at least for what they think is right. They can turn out to be vigilantes.

Swindler's sometimes have to look out for Dimensional Knights particular from the Order of Unity. In fact, that is where they get the name. It is the believed by some that Swindlers get their unique power from a 'lower' forum of the same power that is bestowed upon Dimensional Knights. Swindler's are somehow capable of 'bending' the rules that govern the Cosmos which too some seem an awful lot like bending spacetime. Any organization that seeks to understand, control, manipulate such things will likely be a danger to a Swindler.

Choose Swindler if you want a Character to be usually lucky in combat and if you want to have more control over the fate of the Character either to benefit yourself or others.

The fastest path into this advanced class is through the Path of Charisma(Charismatic Hero), though other paths are possible.

Requirements: To qualify to become a Swindler, a character must fulfill the following criteria.

Swindler's Class Features

The following class features pertain to the Swindler advanced class.

Cheat Fate: Starting at Swindler 1st level, fortune favors the Swindler. Once per day, he may re-roll one roll that he has just made before the success or failure of the result is announced. The Swindler must take the result of the re-roll, even if it’s worse than the original roll. At 9th level this ability can be used twice per day.

Sneak Attack: At 1st level, the Swindler becomes skilled at taking down unaware targets quickly. He deals extra 1d4 points of damage on successful melee weapon attacks made against an unaware or flanked opponent. This extra damage can be lethal or non-lethal, as determined by choice of weapon and the manner in which it’s used. This is extra damage given to the total damage done to that target for the round.

This Talent can only be used with melee weapons the Character has proficiency with and only on opponents that are unaware of the Character or flanked.

The extra damage increases to +2d4 at 4th level, +3d4 at 7th level and +4d4 on 10th level.

Thousand Faces: At 2nd level a Swindler’s ability to manipulate probability makes him unpopular in certain circles, increasing the need for a ready number of disguises. Thus the Swindler becomes a master of the quick disguise. He can don a convincing disguise in one-tenth the normal time (1d4 minutes) or a quick and dirty disguise in 9 seconds or 3 rounds. The Swindler also gets advantage bonus on 9th level.

Escape Artist: Starting at 2nd level, the Swindler uses his long experience of hearing about other people getting caught and escaping and which has nothing to do with himself of course. And with this knowledge, he gains an advantage whenever attempting to escape confinement. Either it is ropes, chains, force field, or some jail. As long as he has been in some way immobilized. This does not count while in combat.

Fortune's Favor: At 3rd level the Swindler's luck at obtaining wealth seems to be unnaturally high. He gets an advantage bonus too profession checks. An advantage bonus to Diplomacy checks when attempting to sell an object and handle for its price. He also gains an advantage bonus when trying to Gamble or make Investments. When scavenging for parts or crafting materials, the Swindler also gains an advantage.

Lucky Strike

At 4th level the Swindler gets to choose how to improve there better combat skills using their unique set of skills. Do they increase their critical chance or critical damage?

Critical Chance Increase: Once per combat if the Swindler performs a Full Round action they can benefit from a +1 to the critical range of there weapons. A weapons critical range cannot go above 17-20 with this ability. The Swindler benefits from +1 critical range on every attack in a round of combat until he or she does a Critical.
Critical Damage Increase: Once per combat if the Swindler performs a successful critical hit they gain an extra +1 to the critical damage multiplier. Just like Critical Chance Increase this only counts for the first time in combat the Swindler does a critical unless the Swindler chooses to ignore the bonus. This cannot make a critical multiplier go higher than 5x.

The Swindler gets this ability again at 8th level. They can choose the same as before and it will stack or choose differently to be more well rounded.

Bonus Feats: At 5th level, the Swindler gets a free Bonus Feat from one of the following categories: Misc Feats, Two-Weapon Fighting, Melee Weapon Combat.

Warp Probability: Starting on the 6th level, the Swindler can affect another target's attack roll, skill check, ability check, or saving throw. This ability can be used at any time even if the Swindler has already performed an action. However, this sacrifices the Swindler's next Standard action. The Swindler must be within 30ft, +5ft for every Charisma Mod, and must be able to see the target. Swindler must also declare that he’s doing the extra action before the result of an enemy's roll is revealed. If the target is an ally the Swindler can wait until after the roll's results. This cannot be done on himself. The Swindler rolls his Advantage Die twice and the Swindler can either add or subtract the result from the target's d20 roll.

This can only be performed a number of times equal to the Swindler's Charisma Mod per day.

Timely Stride: Starting at 7th level, the Swindler has learned long ago to be quick on his feet. However, over time he has learned to combine his unique skill set to make himself move through time more quickly. The Swindler gains +10ft of speed as long as they are not encumbered or wearing heavy armor. The Swindler can no longer be caught Flat-Footed during a surprise round.

Turn Back Time: At 8th level the Swindler can re-roll any roll once per day. The Player must announce they are using this ability before they roll The Swindler can choose what roll they wish to take.

At 16th Character level this can be used twice per day.

One Last Trick: At 9th level, if the Swindler finds himself stuck in a nasty situation they can attempt to flee using there uncanny luck and ability to shift spacetime. If the Swindler is at or below 10% health (not including temporary health), then the Swindler can teleport himself up to 120ft + 10ft for every Charisma Mod. This can even be done out of turn to avoid an attack. This does require an Initiative check against the attacker though, and if done out of turn the Swindler forfeits his next round. However if done normally this requires a Full Round action and is the declaration of the end of the Swindlers turn.

The teacher walked up to April's desk with a worried expression on his face. He looked at the tablet in his hands. It was April's homework and last test scores. A large red square at the top right corner blinking with a white F centered within it. "Uhrm... Miss April a moment of your time." The teacher said with a pause hoping to get April's attention. He failed. April's eyes were fixed on the workbench before her. A small spattering of electronics mixed with wires, duck tape, and a smoking soldering iron lay on the workbench before her. Her unkempt brown hair flowing down her back has caught the attention of several of her peers. However, she has ignored there laughter and sneers just as she is ignoring the teacher. "UH HRM! Miss April a moment PLEASE!" The teacher said this time with resolve in his voice.

"Huh?" shocked out of a trance she looks up at the teacher eying the tablet in his hand.

The teach satisfied that the response was enough. "Your grades have been falling more and more recently. You seem ever engaged at school. Dare I say too engaged. But if you don't do your homework you will fail. And failing will not get you success. You have a chance here, and this is one of the most prestigious schools in this sector of space for Engineering." He finished the sentence with his nose a little higher in the air.

"Ok... whatever. I don't care much to be an Engineer anyway. My interest is in robotics." April replied instantly.

"Bu... wh... Robotics is a part of Engineer! My dear, you must have other interest besides electronics?" The teacher stammered

"No... just robotics. The software that runs them, the interfaces, the automated systems, the servos, the levers, if it isn't a robot, I don't care much to learn about it." And with that, she went back to her work.

Little did that teacher know but years later April would be out in the field repairing and keeping robots working on a harsh new colonization project. Making sure the robots could defend themselves from the hostile bugs that lived on the planet. Lives depended on those robots. And she was paid more in one month then that teacher was in 10 years.

Technosavants find more kinship with electronics, computers, robots and the like then other biologic counterparts. It often starts with collecting robotic, cybernetic and computer hardware at a young age. It grows into not just a career but for a Technosavant a life choice. Loved for their aptitude to solve everyday problems Technosavants are found mainly in the frontier of space. Fixing electronic equipment and even improving on them. Noted for being tinkerers they communicate in a language of techno jargon often made up on the fly.

Player's who want a Character that can master robotics, cybernetics, and alien technology as well as put it to good use in the field.

Technosavant's Class Features

The following class features pertain to the Technosavant advanced class.

Cybernaut or Robotic Master

At Technosavant first level you must choose between being a Technosavant Cybernaut or a Technosavant Robotic Master. There are some class features that are shared between both.

Cybernaut: is a Technosavant that focuses on learning how to improve oneself by making themselves more digital and robotic. They learn to enhance there own bodies with cybernetics and become cyborgs.
Robotic Master: is someone who focuses on making and controlling robots. They make them to do things for them or even to become friends with there own creations.

Technocant: Starting at Technosavant 1st level, a Technosavant learns to read, write, and speak a trendy jargon-riddled dialect called Technocant. In other words, the Technosavant gains the Language Technocant for free without it counting against her Language skill. At level 1 the Technosavant's Technocant Language level is 1. It goes up automatically by 1 every odd level of the Technosavant Class. Characters without the Technocant language can translate written Technocant with a successful Language check (DC 15).

Tech Hoarder: At 2nd level, the Technosavant's curiosity of trinkets and how to take them apart allows them to be great at salvaging old tech for spare parts. The Technosavant gains the Salvage feat.

The Technosavant also gains a +1 misc bonus to Computer Use.

Build Prototype: At 8th level, a Technosavant can repair and craft Mechanic or Electrical items of any Tech Level. However, the Craft check DCs for any item above the Technosavant's current Tech Level is increased by +5 per tech level higher than her own.

Greater Vulnerability: At 10th level, the Technosavant has improved their knowledge of robotics to be even more effective at taking them down. They now gain +2d6 when ever attacking a Robotic system and double advantage to grapple checks. And an additional +1 Misc bonus to Disable Device skill.

Cybernaut

WORK IN PROGRESS NOT READY FOR ALPHA TWO

The Cybernaut is obsessed with improving themselves through digital and mechanical enhancements. They do self-experimentation as a hobby to add new gadgets, cybernetics, and software to themselves and become cyborgs. Some try to stay 'normal' looking while others fully embrace their ideology and can completely change themselves over time. Becoming more machine than flesh.

Cybermancer: Starting at 4th level, the Technosavant becomes a master of cybernetics. With the help of some mechanical “magic,” she takes half the normal time to build or repair a cybernetic attachment.

Super Cybersurgeon: At 6th level, the Technosavant gains an advantage bonus on Treat Injury checks made to perform cybernetic surgery; see the Cybernetic Surgery feat description for more information.

Distill Information: A Techno Hoarder of 8th level or higher can take a full round action once per encounter to let her allies know of weaknesses of a single robotic target. After that for 1d4 + Int Mod turns allies gain additional damage or accuracy to the target in the form of the advantage die for each character. The Techno Hoarder decides which bonus her allies get.

Robotic Master

Like robots? Maybe like them a little too much? Well there is no such thing as liking Robots too much from a Robotic Master. How could you not like something that tirelessly serves and sorta worships you. Ok ok... it defiantly worships you. The point is its best not too think about that too much. A Robotic Master loves making, programing, repairing, adventuring with robots. Seeing a mechanical and virtual machine come to life and experience the galaxy full of unexpected scenarios is an awesome challenge with equally rewarding benefits.

Robotic Friend: At level 1 the Robotic Master acquires and builds her first multi-purpose adventure robotic system or MARS for short. Rules for customization of MARS robots as well as others are explained in the Hero Companions page. Due to lack of experience and money the robot is very simplistic and is considered a level 1 MARS. The MARS level is the level of the Robotic Master starting at 1.

Robomancer: At 3rd level, the Technosavant becomes a master of robotics. With the help of some mechanical “magic,” she takes half the normal time to build or repair a robot’s frame or a robotic component.

Field MARS Surgeon: Starting on the 3rd level, the Robotic Master gets the ability too preform repairs too her MARS robotic companion while in combat. This action only applies to her companion as this represents her extra familiarity too this particular machine and its configuration. As a Full Round action she can preform a Craft skill check to repair her robot as if it was a Treat Injury skill with a HP bonus of the Characters Affinity Die + Robotic Master Level.

Technique Integration: At 5th level the Robotic Master gets to integrate an extra Gadget crafted with an eligible Technique that can be activated using pre-programmed AI, so it acts as an action done by the MARS and not the Robotic Master. This can be done again with a second Gadget at 9th level.

Advanced MARS Surgeon: At 7th level the Robotic Master gets bonuses to repairs to her MARS robotic companion. Now the bonuses in the Field MARS Surgeon can apply to other robots. Also, the Robotic Master receives an advantage bonus when dealing with her Robot. The action is now considered a Standard Action if dealing with her Robot.

Robotic Combo Attack: At 10th level the Robotic Master and her MARS robotic companion work so well together they gain efficiency bonuses when attacking the same target. They can take a Full Round action too attack the same Target that both the Robotic Master and the MARS companion have successfully attacked in the current combat. If both attacks are successful they get to roll an extra hit die each as if they had scored a Critical hit with a x2 crit bonus. This can only be done once per target. This also counts for one 1 of the Extra Attacks not all Extra Attack Damage.

"The Hunt" is all there is for most Tracers. You could say that they do not work to live but rather live to work. And "The Hunt" is the work. Ether its looking for a missing child or finding a killer on the loose the Tracer is dedicated to it. Tracers are more than just Bounty Hunters. The universe is a big and dangerous place, and only some are willing to traverse it on a "hunch" or "wild goose chase" as some may call it. Trances also do not just hunt for bounty. They are skilled at finding anyone or anything across the vastness of space. They revile in the daunting challenge.

Tracers are found using their skills as bounty hunters, parole officer, and sometimes his skill is put to the test tracking packages and missing persons. So dedicated to "The Hunt" a Tracer will never honestly give up on a target until it is found. Or until the Tracer dies trying.

Pick to be the Tracer if you want a Character who excels at hunting fugitives or locating missing persons for money across the vastness of Space

The fastest path into this advanced class is through the Path of Wisdom(Dedicated Hero), though other paths are possible.

Tracer's Class Features

The following class features pertain to the Tracer advanced class.

Tracers Mark: Starting on the Tracer 1st level, the Tracer gains the ability to 'mark' a target with a successful Ranged attack using a tracer round. This talent works similar to the 'Prey' talent from the Space Marine. This provides a +1d4 damage to the total damage done in that around to a 'marked' target. Once marked a target stays marked until the Tracer attacks a new target. Only one target can be marked at any one time. The Tracer can choose to attack another target without marking it. This is considered the total damage done for around not per attack.

At 4th level this goes up to +2d4, 7th level it goes to +3d4, and 10th level this reaches +4d4 damage.

Master Tracker: At 1st level the Tracer gets an advantage bonus to Knowledge Checks, Perception checks and Diplomacy checks when used to Gather Information on the whereabouts of a Target.

At level 7th level the bonus becomes 2 advantage bonuses stacked.

Study Target: At 2nd level the Tracer can study an enemy opponent as a Full Round action. The Trace rolls an Intelligence check DC15. If successful the Trace gains an advantage bonus against accuracy checks for the next Intelligence Mod rounds. A Tracer can only do this once per target.

Uncanny Stealth: Tracers learn to move quickly yet quietly. He gains a +1 Misc bonus to Stealth checks at 3rd level. He also gains the following.

At 3rd level, a Tracer no longer suffers the –5 penalty on Stealth checks while moving at full speed.

At 8th level, a Tracer suffers only a –10 penalty on Stealth checks while running or charging (instead of the standard –20 penalties).

Debilitating Blow: Starting on the 4th level, the Tracer learns to focus on his target and hit them in such a way that it helps debilitate them. This is similar to the Debilitating Shot from the Space Marine. If Study Target talent is activated then, the Tracer can do either a Ranged or Melee attack that not only wounds the target but also makes the target Entangled. Although the character is not bound simply wounded in a way that makes it extremely painful to move. The Target can roll a Constitution check DC20 + Tracer's Intelligence Mod to ignore the pain and thus the condition. The Condition lasts until the target receives any kind of healing. This requires a Full Round action.

Swift Tracking: At 5th level, the Tracer can move a full speed without penalty when using the Survival skill to track. He can move at twice normal speed while tracking as well. The Tracer can now provide the Survival bonuses to the 'Scan' feature of a Space Ship he is operating if he is either manning the scanners or the Captain.

Bonus Feat: At 5th level, the Tracer gets a free Bonus Feat from one of the following categories: Misc Feats, Ranged Combat, Space Ship Operations

Probe for Weakness: Starting at the 6th level, the Tracer continues too study the target as he attacks it. If the Study Target talent is activated then, the Tracer can roll an Intelligence DC25 whenever he performs a Full Round attack action which lands a successful hit. If successful the Tracer gains an additional Xd4 of bonus damage. X is equal to 1 + 1 forever 5 the Tracer beats the DC25 until the end of combat.

This ability can only be done once per combat.

Intimidating Profession: At 6th level, the Tracer's has started to make a name for himself. The Tracer can use the name of his profession and his accomplishments to seem more threatening. The Player chooses either +1 Misc bonus to the [[Intimidate]] skill or +1 Rank to the Profession skill which includes a Credit boost and instant income worth whatever the Characters new Credit Rating Budget is. For these rules visit the Wealth and Money page.

Homing Tracer Round: On the 7th level, the Tracer gains the ability to shoot an individual Homing Tracer round that can be easily used by those who are generally not trained to use Tracers. As a Full Round action, the Tracer can fire a single round that includes the Homing Tracer Round. This does normal single attack damage. However, this also provides an advantage to the Tracers allies for 1d6 rounds.

Distracting Shot

Starting at 8th level, the Tracer can fire a special round that is designed to deal less damage but be distracting. The damage of the weapon is 1 die level lower. However, the Tracer can pick from multiple options as to how the ammo affects the target.

Focus on me: This ammo makes the target roll Wisdom save DC15 + Tracer's Dex Mod. If they fail, they switch their attention for at least 1 round to the Tracer.
Look away: This ammo makes the target roll a Wisdom Save DC15 + Tracer's Dex Mod. If they fail, they turn their heads, and until the beginning of there next turn, they are considered Flat footed/unaware.
Crippling Pain: This causes massive, crippling pain as a special toxin course through there body. Dealing no real damage this toxin dissolves quickly but is meant to temporarily weaken a target. The Target must roll a Constitution save DC15 + Tracer's Int Mod. If they fail, they become Shaken for 1d4 rounds. If they are already Shakened, they become Dazed and so on. At the start of each turn, they can roll another Constitution save to get out of the Condition.

Crippling Shot: At 9th level, if a Tracer critical they can also (by choice), bleed damage for 1d4 + Intelligence Mod damage (Ignore DR), for 1d6 turns. This effect does not stack the damage but can stack the number of turns.

Final Shot: At 10th level, the Tracer can whose there Intelligence and knowledge of the enemy to attempt to deliver massive damage to either kill or knock out a target. The Tracer takes a Full Round and rolls an Intelligence check DC15 to observe the target much like Study Target talent. If that Talent is already active for the target, then this step can be skipped. The next around the Tracer can attack with double advantage and if successful gains automatic critical with +1 to the critical level. This is similar to the 'Dead Aim' Feat. However the critical can go up to x5 instead of x4, and it is not negated if the Character moves or skips a turn or is hit. Also, the aiming portion can be skipped if the Tracer has already done Study Target. This can only be done once per target. The Tracer can also piercingly control the damage if they choose so that if the damage would have killed the Target, the Tracer can merely choose to bring them down to 1 HP or 0 or outright kill them. If the target is still alive after the attack, they roll a Constitution save DC20 + Tracers Intelligence Mod. If the save fails they become Stunned for 1 round.

It can be hard learning a new culture. Even harder if it's from an Alien species and civilization. Some, however, love the challenge and get excited when those such barriers are torn down. Even rarer group of people love to do that with alien creatures. A Xenophile is usually seen as just a career choice for those that study the physiology, psychology, culture, and technology of other species. But for must Xenophiles its a life choice and life choices for them. To them, there is no greater joy then furthering science by the discovery of new alien species.

Usually, this interest and even sometimes love for other species doesn't bestow any special kinship with them. However, in rare cases, it can. Some aliens creatures can be domesticated and even trained. Some Xenophiles take advantage of this to learn more about that species and how it interacts in different environments.

On the other side of the spectrum, some Xenophiles attempt to be more detached from there subjects to try to stay as objective and scientific as possible.

Either case Xenophile's are usually located at newly discovered planets that have life on them. If not they are in civilization showcasing there newest discoveries. Sometimes they can be called upon by Nations or mega-corporations to help colonization efforts that have gone south because of the local alien "monsters."

Xenophile's Class Features

The following class features pertain to the Xenophile advanced class.

Xeno-Master or Xeno Philotherian: At Xenophile first level, the Xenophile must choose between the Xeno-Master path or Xeno Philotherian path. Both have shared features.

Xeno-Master: You choose to be more detached from your studies. You learn from observing alien creatures in there natural habitats. Because of this, you learn more about how to hunt down such creatures as well as there own way of surviving and defending themselves from predators. If a colony has a pest or alien monster problem, then it is a unique opportunity to both studies the creatures both in nature and under a microscope.
Xeno Philotherian: You can choose a baby alien creature to be imprinted at there birth or shortly thereafter. This causes a special bond that will allow the Xeno Philotherian to study and learn more about a specific creature then studying it usually. This shows a particular dedication toward learning about one specific alien species.

Xenolore: At Xenophile 1st level, a Xenophile can make an Intelligence check to identify specific characteristics of a xenomorph, including any special attacks, special qualities, or vulnerabilities. In general, the DC of the Knowledge check equals 8 + the xenomorph’s Hit Dice. A successful check allows the Xenophile to unlock a single fact about the xenomorph. For every 5 points by which her check result exceeds the DC, the Xenophile learns another piece of useful information.

Quick Chemistry: At 2nd level, the Xenophile can craft general chemical and pharmaceuticals such as acids, poisons, health concoctions, etc more quickly than usual. When using the Craft (chemical) or Craft (Pharmaceutical) skill to cook General Equipment items, the Xenophile reduces the cook/brewing time by 1/2.

At 6th level, the Xenophile reduces the cook/brewing time of chemical masterworked concoctions objects by half.

Xeno Biology: All Xenophiles at 3rd level can show off there biological insights gifted from long studies of alien species to craft experimental concoctions that can have surprising effects. The Xenophile can gear the concoctions toward negative or positive effects and can use them to help boost themselves or their animal subjects. However, if you are ever offered a drink from a known Xenophile take at your own risk! These experimental concoctions are unstable and have short expiration dates. They will need to attended (re-mixed, re-crafted, redone, etc...) every 24 hours, or else they become inert. Unlike standard craft checks crafting these concoctions can take little time (10 minutes per vile) and can mostly use materials gathered in the environment (when suitable, Survival check DC12 + Misc Mods, time 20 Min). If not the materials follow the same price as normal.

Over time the Xenophile gets better and preparing these concoctions and can prepare more of them a day. There is a single crafting check for each day, and the Xenophile can take 10 or 20. The Xenophile can re-try for every concoction they can prepare, but the total is reduced by one until they cannot craft anymore. Some different and total concoctions prepared per day is 2 + 1/2 Xenophile's level roundup. (The items cannot be sold as they are mostly useless to other creatures and they have such short shelf life.) The effect lasts for Xenophile's Wisdom Mod turns.

Renowned: At 8th level, the Xenophile's published work on alien species garners attention from Xeno Biologists around the galaxy. The Character gains a +2 to her Profession rank which includes Credit Score bonus. They also gain an advantage when doing Diplomacy, Bluff, or Intimidate checks when talking to a fellow Scientist or Alien hobbyist.

Xeno-Master

Xeno Resistance: At 1st level, a Xeno-Master gains a +1 bonus on saving throws to resist the Techniques, Talents or special attacks from species other than her own.

This bonus increases to +2 at 5th level and +3 at 10th level.

Xeno Hunter: At 2nd level, a Xeno-Master gains +1 Misc bonus to Survival skill. The Xeno-Master also gains +1 damage per attack to any alien monster or non-sentient alien creature.

At 6th level, this turns to +2 Misc bonus to Survival skill and +3 damage to any alien monster or non-sentient alien creature.

Xeno Study: At 4th level, for full round action, the Xeno-Master can study a target that is of a different species for any signs of weakness. For a Wisdom check against DC14 + CR Level above Character Level. If successful the Xeno-Master gains an extra Advantage Die to both Accuracy check and damage. The effect lasts the Xeno-Master's Wisdom modifier number of rounds.

Advanced Alien Biology: At 7th level, the Xeno-Master is able to craft concoctions from the Xeno Biology talent for -5 DC and can craft +2 more a day.

Xeno Defender: At 7th level, the Xeno-Master can share her insights with her teammates to provide them with a temporary +2 AC / +1 DR to attacks from a particular alien target. However, the Xeno-Master must convey their knowledge quickly and efficiently in combat. Meaning only people who can directly hear her within 30ft + 5ft per Charisma Mod. With standard action and a Charisma Check of DC15 + Number of people affected (you can choose). The Xeno-Master can only do this so many times per day equal to there Charisma Mod.

Alien Insights: At 9th level, the Xeno-Master can once per combat use there skills and insights into alien combat to confuse a target. It requires a Full round action. The target takes disadvantage on all attacks and saving throws for 1d6 turns. The target can attempt a Wisdom saving throw DC15 + 1/2 Xeno-master level roundup.

At Character 18th character level this can be done once per target.

At 10th level, this becomes +3 AC / +2 DR.

Xeno Philotherian

Xeno Imprinting: At Level 1 the Xeno Philotherian can imprint herself onto a newborn Xenophile creature. Any Xenophiles perform this action to attempt to domesticate and train an alien creature to further study them. Although sometimes the bond between animal and person becomes more then what's necessary for scientific study. The Xeno Philotherian needs to spend at least 7 days with the animal in question and perform a Handle Animal check per day with a DC of 10 + HD of the creature. However, at level one the Player doesn't need to roll this. It's only necessary if they want to gain a new animal companion to replace their first one. The player can take 10 or 20 however, in this case, it means 8 or 16 hours. The Xeno Philotherian can only have one at a time.

The Xeno creature rules are located on the Hero Companion page.

Handle Animal: The Xeno Philotherian gains the special Skill check ability of Handle Animal. This ability combines both Diplomacy and Survival into one skill designed to interact with alien animals. You roll whatever Skill Die is higher from either Diplomacy or Survival and add any static bonuses from both. This skill allows a Xeno Philotherian to do domesticate an animal as well as teach them basic tricks like fetch. The DC 10 + CR Rating + 1 for every size increment above Medium.

Treat Animal: At 2nd level, the Philotherian shows her training and close care of animals with the ability to perform Treat Injury on her nearly imprinted creature with advantage even when in combat.

At 6th level, the Philotherian can preform Treat Animal (Treat Injury) to the animal in her care as a Simple action while still having an advantage.

At 9th level, the Philotherian can preform Treat Animal (Treat Injury) to the animal in her car as a Free action while still having an advantage.

Xeno Training: At 4th level, the Xeno Philotherian can teach the animal a new Technique that the animal would otherwise never do. The animal can only learn Techniques that their level allows to its use of the Technique follows the same rules as other Techniques naturally learned. However, instead of training a new Technique, the Xeno Philotherian can instead train the creature to perform one more Technique of an available level.

At the 7th and 10th level the Xeno Philotherian and train one more Technique or do the trade-off of having the creature be able to use 1 more technique.

Prestige Classes

A Prestige Classes is a way to grow beyond the Advance Classes. It requires one or more Advances Classes that together help form a more specific theme. The Prestige Class then attempts to add new features and abilities keeping within the spirit of the theme. Usually having between 5 and 10 total levels and usually requires multi Advance Classes and or high level requirements. Likely the character will have to MultiClass in order to meet the requirements.

You can review available Prestige Classes here.

Multi-Class Advance Classes

Multi-Classing is different in Future Path. Firstly a Character's Path is that's Character's Level and there is no Multi Pathing. A Path is similar too but not a Class.

If you level up your Character from level 4 to 5 and happens to also be a level 3 Starfighter then you can add another level in your Starfighter class or if you wanted to MutliClass and add 1 level off Tracer or any other Advance Class that your Character meets the requirements for. This means you will have to sacrifice taking a new level in Starfighter. So in the end you will be a level 5 Hero with 3 levels in Dogfighter and 1 level in Tracer.

As the Player advances his Character they will want to take more then one class type. Advance Classes are only lvl 1 - lvl 10. While the Character's max level is 20. Some people may want to take all 10 levels in their first Advance class and then use their remanding Character levels to take levels in another Advance class. While some may want to level up two classes back and forth so they have an even amount of levels in both classes. There are also Prestige classes that are designed to continue along a more specific path usually combining two Advance Classes together with a more specific theme.

Here are some extra rules for Multi-Classing an Advance Class:

Players may only pick talents out of whatever classes gained a new level.
The character gains no bonus for having classes with the same class skill.
Restrictions always apply. If one class restrictions a feature provided by another class then the Player can still take that class just without that feature.
1. (NOTE: Some restrictions are specifically for not taking a class. In this case you cannot take the restricted class)
You can MultiClass as long as your Character meets the requirements.

There are no other penalties for MultiClassing. You can have as many Advance/Prestige classes as possible by requirements and restrictions.
