[edit] Class Features
Some of the skills require favor, favor can be generated by the saint when praying (while praying he is immobile, and can have little to no sound present). The Saint's favor limit is 20.
- The saint gains favor at a rate of 1pt per 5 minutes of prayer. Or when in a church of a good deity 1pt per minute.
- The points are not taken away when a day ends nor are they granted.
The saint is an identifiable priest. One walking down the street could know that. He is well respected by any God fearing or believing people. Soldiers obey him as readily as their commanders. His opinion is said to sway many King's decisions and is a demanded member of the court. Kings like to have Gods on their side. Since he is pure, and doing untrustworthy or unacceptable things is not in his nature, a Saint CANNOT:
- Steal
- Lie
- Cheat
- Commit forgery
- Use tainted artifacts
He can do none of these things unless he must do one of such things to save a life of another.
He can provide however:
- Sanctuary (A place of refuge where police jurisdiction is negligible)
Spellcasting: At each level, you gain new spells per day and an increase in caster level (and spells known, if applicable) as if you had also gained a level in a spellcasting class to which you belonged before adding the prestige class level. You do not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If you had more than one divine spellcasting class before becoming a Saint, you must decide to which class to add each level for the purpose of determining spells per day, caster level, and spells known.
Holy Hands (Ex): Holy Hands allows the saint to heal for +2 per die rolled when touch healing somebody.
Distance Rites (Ex): The Saint has gained enough favor to heal regular touch heals at a distance 10 ft +5ft/St. Level.
Teleport (Sp): Allows the Saint to teleport up to 1 mile
- Costs 2 favor
Expose Demon (Ex): A Saint of this level has the ability to recognize when a person is possessed or under the influence of a spell by making a spot check. He cannot dispel the demon but he can find where it came from.
Barrier (Sp): Now the Saint has the ability to conjure a barrier that has HP equal to double the amount of Favor he wishes to use upon conjuring it.
Incorruptable (Ex): The Saint has acquired enough divine providence to be immune to mind control and demonic/spell induced possessions.
Heavenly Sheild (Sp): Heavenly shield is a touch move that when used on another protects that person from being attacked by more than one enemy per round.
- Costs 7 Favor
Eleison (Ex): Another 2 dice of the same size are added to heal rolls
Undead Begone (Ex): The Saint can take no damage from the undead.
Holy Proclamation (Ex):
- Increases Favor limit to 40
- +4 bonus to the Charisma modifier
Exorcise (Sp): The saint can banish any ghosts, spirits or spells that possess a being.
- Costs 10 Favor
Halo (Ex): He has almost completed his path to enlightenment and now a Halo is evident above this character's head. Pure now, the Saint is immune to many things:
- Taint
- Necromantic Spells
- Sneak attacks
Further more, the Saint can:
- Heal taint (use any heal spell except use it for the purpose of healing taint)
- Gets an extra feat of his choice
- Speak in any language
- In battle, every friendly around him (10ft radius) gains 1 HP per round.
Eternus (Ex): Fully enlightened, the Saint now has infinite favor, he is the being he was praying to. This representation of purity can Preform miracles such as:
- Walking on water
- Surviving a death sentence
- Make more food out of very little
- He will not age or die of age
If he dies, he will:
- Be reborn by a priest for free
- His body will never rot
- His body cannot be damaged or stolen.
- He will be reborn if left in a good church for a week
