Soul Spells (Sp): See Tables

Dark Enthrallment: Because of the focus required to maintain his souls, the Harvester takes a -4 penalty to Miscellaneous AC.

Ask Dark Watcher (Ex): Allows a Harvester (as a free action) to communicate with a dark watcher. It can make its own knowledge checks to any situation at a +5 modifier, and will answer questions as the DM sees fit because he's controlled by the DM.

Twisted: If a Harvester hasn't any souls, he must make a will save of 15 or attempt to kill the nearest living thing for a soul. This condition can be suppressed by making him helpless in any way.
