This prestige class was designed for my friend, who loves cows. This class will be good for pretty much anybody who loves the bovines.

[edit] Becoming a Cowlord

Most cowlords have most of their levels in a class dedicated to nature, such as a SRD:Druid. Wisdom is important for a cowlord for skills. Strength and Constitution are important because the cowlord often engages in melee combat.

[edit] Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Cowlord.

Leather AC bonus (Ex): At 1st level, the Cowlord gains a +1 bonus to AC while wearing leather armor. This stacks with armor enhancement bonuses. This bonus increases by +1 every 2 levels.

Speak with Cows at Will (Sp): At will, the Cowlord may use Speak with Animals, but only with cows.

Wild Empathy (Ex): (see Druid class feature, but adding cowlord class level instead). If the animal the cowlord is using wild empathy on is a cow, he adds a +6 bonus to the check.

Low-light Vision (Ex): The cowlord gains low-light vision at 2nd level.

Ultimate Bull Rush (Ex): At 4th level, a cowlord gains an improvement to Improved Bull Rush. The Str bonus is now +7, and bull rushes now deal 1d6 damage.

Herd Leader: At 6th level, the cowlord is treated as having the leadership feat, but gains no cohort, and the cowlord gains a number of cows in his herd equal to the amount of total followers the cowlord is allowed to have. Also, cows within 30 feet of the cowlord gain a +2 morale bonus to attack and damage rolls.

Polymorph to Cow at Will (Su): Starting at 8th level, a cowlord may transform into a cow for an infinite amount of time. This transformation originally takes 2 rounds to complete (the cowlord may not take any actions while polymorphing), but at 10th level, it takes only 1 round, at 12th level it takes a standard action, at 14th level it takes a move action, and at 16th level it takes a free action.

The epic cowlord gains a bonus feat (selected from the list of epic cowlord feats) every 4 levels after 10th.
