Aegis Customizations

The following talents are available to the aegis class and all of its archetypes that gain customizations. Other classes that gain access to customizations may select these at the GM’s discretion.

1-Point Customizations

Bonus Talent [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis gains a single magic talent, combat talent, or skill talent as a bonus talent. This customization can only be selected once for every two aegis levels he possesses.

This customization can be selected by the aberrant archetype.

Chakra Bind, Lesser

An aegis with this customization gains the Access Low Chakra Slot feat as a bonus feat as long as his astral suit is formed. The aegis chooses which slot to apply this feat to the first time he forms his astral suit for the day and cannot select a different slot for 24 hours, regardless of whether he reforms or reconfigures his suit.

Shape Veil, Lesser

As long as the aegis’ astral suit is formed, he gains the benefits of one veil from the daevic veil list, treating his class level as his veilweaver level and Intelligence as his veilweaving ability. The aegis chooses this veil the first time he forms his astral suit for the day and cannot select a different veil for 24 hours, regardless of whether he reforms or reconfigures his suit.

Suit Battery [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

By spending 3 power points as a move action, the aegis may generate a single technological charge which he may transfer to any equipment he is wielding. This customization is available at GM discretion.

Suit Maneuverability [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis increases the maximum Dexterity bonus of the aegis’ astral suit by 1. This customization can be selected multiple times. The effect stacks.

Water Retention [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The astral suit recycles all water from the wearer and their environment. A creature with this customization never needs to drink, can breathe as if they were underwater, and for the purpose of racial traits and class abilities is considered to be submerged in water at all times. This customization can be selected by the aberrant archetype.

Weapon Emulation [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis gains the ability to forge out of ectoplasm a weapon based upon an installed emulation program. The weapon can be generated, reloaded, or retracted as a swift action, and can be reformed if sundered. The weapon is a part of the astral suit, and so cannot be thrown or otherwise detached from the suit. Any ability or effect that suppresses or destroys the astral suit also does the same to this weapon.

2 Point Customizations

Aquatic Adaptation [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

An aegis with this customization can attack with any weapon without penalty while underwater. This customization can be selected by the aberrant archetype.

Contemplation

The aegis’ suit now provides him with the ability to convert psionic power into essence. While his astral suit is formed, the aegis may spend 1 power point per veil or essence receptacle as a swift action, to treat a veil he has shaped or other essence receptacle he has available as though it were invested with a point of essence for 3 rounds. This does not stack with, though it may overlap, standard essence invested in a given receptacle. At 6th level and every three levels thereafter, the aegis may spend an additional 3 power points per receptacle he wishes to invest to treat it as being invested with an additional point of essence. This ability can be used to exceed the aegis’ normal limitation on the maximum amount that can be invested in a given receptacle (for example, an 18th level aegis could spend 13 power points to treat a veil as being invested with 5 points of essence, even though he’d normally be limited to 4 points when investing essence normally. If the aegis has multiple receptacles in which he wants to invest, he may choose to spend power points to psionically invest any number of the receptacles with the same swift action, though he must still pay the normal cost for each.

Ectoplessence

The aegis’ astral suit now provides a pool of essence to power akashic abilities. As long as his astral suit is formed, the aegis gains an essence pool equal to half his class level rounded down (minimum 1).

Psibertech Emulation [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis chooses one piece of psibertech. While inside his astral suit or astral mech or while under the effects of transformed body, the aegis gains the benefit of that piece’s basic augmentation, using his aegis level in place of his manifester level.

This customization can be selected multiple times, each time applying a different Base Augmentation to the aegis or applying an Advanced Augmentation of a piece of psibertech the aegis already has the Base Augmentation for.

Shape Veil, Improved

The aegis gains additional veilweaving capabilities. The aegis may choose a second veil from the daevic veilweaving list to have shaped while their astral suit is formed. This veil follows the same restrictions as that gained from the Lesser Shape Veil customization. The aegis must be at least 5th level and have the Lesser Shape Veil customization before selecting this customization.

3-Point Customizations

Chakra Bind, Improved

An aegis with this customization gains the Access Middle Chakra Slot feat as a bonus feat as long as his astral suit is formed. The aegis chooses which slot to apply this feat to the first time he forms his astral suit for the day and cannot select a different slot for 24 hours, regardless of whether he reforms or reconfigures his suit. The aegis must be at least 9th level and have the Lesser Chakra Bind customization before selecting this customization.

Easy Suit [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis’ speed is not reduced for wearing an astral suit that functions as medium or heavy armor.

Environmental Shield [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The astral suit takes a form that enables survival even in extreme environments. This customization enables the wearer to breathe freely, even underwater or in a vacuum, as well as making them immune to harmful gasses and vapors, including inhaled diseases and poisons and spells like cloudkill and stinking cloud. In addition, the suit protects the wearer from extremes of temperature (per endure elements) as well as extremes of pressure. The aegis must have the Underwater Breath or Water Retention customization to select this customization. This customization can be selected by the aberrant archetype.

Force Field [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis gains a force field (as the robot subtypeB6) around their astral suit that absorbs attacks. This force field grants a number of temporary hit points equal to the aegis’ level and possesses fast healing 1. For every additional point invested in this customization, the fast healing increases by 1 and the amount of temporary hp increases by 5.

Propulsive Movement [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

An aegis with this customization gains Spring Attack as a bonus feat even if he does not meet the prerequisites. This customization can be selected by the aberrant archetype.

Shape Veil, Greater

The aegis’ veilweaving abilities have transcended to a new peak. The aegis may choose a third veil from the daevic veilweaving list to have shaped while their astral suit is formed. This veil follows the same restrictions as that gained from the Lesser Shape Veil customization. The aegis must be at least 9th level and have the Lesser Shape Veil and Improved Shape Veil customizations before selecting this customization.

4-Point Customizations

Chakra Bind, Greater

An aegis with this customization gains the Access Higher Chakra Slot feat as a bonus feat as long as his astral suit is formed. The aegis chooses which slot to apply this feat to the first time he forms his astral suit for the day and cannot select a different slot for 24 hours, regardless of whether he reforms or reconfigures his suit. The aegis must be at least 15th level and have the Improved Chakra Bind customization before selecting this customization.

Deflector Suit [LG]

^{Source: Arcforge Players Compendium}

The aegis’ astral suit’s armor bonus applies against touch attacks and ignores any armor penetration that weapons may have when used against it.
