When a person lives with a spirit, they become acutely aware of their own essence, just beneath the surface of the skin. The psychomancer is interested not only with his bond to his spirit, but his own spiritual evolution, and seeks to unlock his soul from the prison of his flesh.
Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: The psychomancer is proficient with simple weapons and light armor only.
This modifies weapon and armor proficiencies.
Casting: The psychomancer may combine spheres and talents to create magical effects. The psychomancer is considered a Mid-Caster and uses Wisdom as his casting ability modifier. (Note: All casters gain 2 bonus talents and may select a casting tradition the first time they gain the casting class feature.)
This replaces the spells class feature.
Spell Pool: The psychomancer gains a small reservoir of energy he can call on to create truly wondrous effects, called a spell pool. This pool contains a number of spell points equal to her class level + his Wisdom modifier. This pool replenishes once per day after roughly 8 hours of rest.
Magic Talents: A psychomancer gains a magic talent every time he gains a caster level.
Spirit Magic: At 1st level, the psychomancer begins his quest to free his own spirit. He does so by choosing to specialize in one of three forms of magic. The psychomancer chooses either the Death, Life, or Mind sphere as his spirit sphere. He gains his spirit sphere as a bonus magical talent (or a talent from it if he possesses the base sphere already), and uses his class level as his caster level with that sphere. This stacks with other caster level sources normally.
Once chosen, this decision can not be changed.
This replaces calm spirits.
Spirit Sight (Su): At 5th level, you gain blindsight to a range of 10 feet. This ability only allows you to detect living creatures and undead creatures. This sight also tells you whether a creature is living or undead. Constructs and other creatures that are neither living nor undead cannot be seen with this ability. The range of this ability increases by 5 ft. at 7th level, and by an additional 5 ft. for every four levels beyond 7th to a maximum of 30 ft. at 19th level.
As a move action, you may double the range of your spirit sense for 1 round.
This replaces detect undead.
Spirit Walk (Su): At 9th level, the psychomancer gains the Project Spirit advanced talent of the Death sphere. When he uses this talent, he may use his class level as his caster level if it is higher.
The psychomancer’s phantom must remain within range of either his body or his projected spirit. If the phantom returns to the psychomancer’s consciousness, the psychomancer’s projected spirit gains the benefits.
This replaces see invisible.
Spirit Form (Su): At 16th level, the psychomancer becomes more adept at projecting his spirit. While he is spirit walking, the psychomancer can take on an incorporeal or ectoplasmic form just as his phantom can. While ectoplasmic, he gains the same damage reduction a phantom would. Changing from incorporeal to ectoplasmic form or the reverse requires a full-round action.
This replaces call spirits.
