Boatman of Styx

Olexandr Lytovchenko (1835-1890)

From D&D Wiki
Boatman of Styx (3.5e Prestige Class)
Author(s): Frank and K
Status: Complete

The River Styx is a planar path winding its way along the Lower Planes servicing the myriad planes of evil, and its waters rob mortals and immortals of their memories. Ferrymen ply these waters, offering safe passage and travel between the planes, but most are con-men looking to make a quick silver, predators in disguise, or well-meaning fools. Few beings know the truly safe routes along the River Styx, thus earning the tile of boatmen, and even fewer have accepted its nature into their very body.

Becoming a Boatman of Styx
Entry Requirements Skills: Knowledge (The Planes) 8 ranks, Survival 4 ranks, Profession (boatman) 4 ranks.
Feats: Quickdraw.
Sneak Attack: +2d6.
Special: Must have visited every Lower Plane via the River Styx, and lived at least one year on a boat on the River Styx.

Stygian Tears: At 3rd level, the Boatman of Styx’s tears gain the effects of the River Styx. He may collect up to one vial of tears per day.

The Boatman also gains the ability to speak, read, and write any language.

Stygian Tributary (Sp): At 9th level, the Boatman of Styx learns a secret about the River Styx: it sometimes touches rivers on planes other than the Lower Planes. Once per day, a Boatman of Styx may cast gate (travel version only) as a spell-like ability, but only while standing on a boat in a river. This portal leads to any other river on any plane.

River Dance (Su): At 10th level, the Boatman of Styx has studied the fiends of the River Styx and learned a secret fighting art. Any creature struck a Boatman of Styx’s sneak attack must make a Will save or be dazed for 1d4 rounds. Any affected creature does not remember any events while dazed.

Myrmidon Legend

4th Century Hoplite by Johnny Shumate shumate_j@bellsouth.net

Myrmidons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Myrmidons (or Myrmidones ) were an ancient nation of Greek mythology. In Homer's Iliad, the Myrmidons are the soldiers commanded by Achilles. Their eponymous ancestor was Myrmidon, a king of Phthiotis who was a son of Zeus and "wide-ruling" Eurymedousa, a princess of Phthiotis. She was seduced by him in the form of an ant. An etiological myth of their origins, simply expanding upon their supposed etymology— the name in Classical Greek was interpreted as "ant-people", from murmekes, "ants"— was first mentioned by Ovid, in Metamorphoses: in Ovid's telling, the Myrmidons were simple worker ants on the island of Aegina.

MYRMIDON LEGEND

The Myrmidon Legend is a warrior who specializes in speed. He learns to fight while moving quickly across the battlefield, giving his enemies little time to respond to his attacks. Myrmidon Legends learn agility as well, so they can weave between foes and around obstacles without slowing down. For a Myrmidon Legend, combat is an obstacle course, and he selects a path taking him through the field as quickly as possible, coming close enough to strike before moving away again. Myrmidon Legends are also excellent at fighting with shortsword and shield or shortspear and shield, and know how to use all three to decimate their enemies.

Hit Die: D10

Requirements:
BAB: +6
Dex: 13
Skills: Jump 8 Ranks
Feats: Dodge, Mobility, Run, Phalanx Fighting, Shield Proficiency, Shortsword Proficiency, Spear Proficiency (Any)

Class Skills: Balance (Dex), Climb (Str), Intimidate (Cha), Jump (Str), and Spot (Wis).
Skill Points at each level: 2 + Int modifier

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A Myrmidon Legend is proficient with all simple weapons, the shortspear, and the shortsword. He is also proficient with light armor and shields. A Myrmidon Legend using any two-handed weapon (except a spear) is unable to use any of his Myrmidon Legend class abilities.

Class Abilities:

Quick Steps:
At first level, the Myrmidon Legend’s base speed is faster than the norm for his race by +5 feet. The Myrmidon Legend gains an additional +5 feet to his base speed at 3rd, 6th, and 9th levels respectively. These bonuses apply when the Myrmidon Legend is wearing no armor, or light armor and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the Myrmidon Legend’s speed because of any load carried or armor worn. A Barbarian’s fast movement ability stacks with the Myrmidon Legend’s quick steps ability.

Classic Hoplite Style:
The Myrmidon Legend is an expert in shield&spear and shield&shortsword combat and knows how to use the them in perfect concert. The Myrmidon Legend is able to use a standard Spear (Simple, 1D8, 20/x3) in one hand along with a light or heavy shield in the the other. Also, when fighting with a shield and spear or a shield and shortsword, the Myrmidon Legend treats the spear/shortsword as though he is using it with two hands, getting 1.5 times his normal Str bonus to damage and also getting a two for one bonus on power attack.

Skilled Charge:
Starting at 2nd level, a Myrmidon Legend adds one-half (round down) his class levels to his damage rolls with a shortsword, spear, or shield on a successful charge attack. If anything grants the Myrmidon Legend the ability to make a full attack at the end of a charge, this extra damage is only applied to his first attack. Also, a Myrmidon Legend no longer takes a penalty to his AC when making a normal charge attack. He still takes the -4 penalty when making a Lethal Charge (see below).

Agile runner:
Beginning at 2nd level, a Myrmidon Legend may make a number of 90-degree turns during a charge attack equal to his Dex bonus. This ability allows the Myrmidon Legend to charge around corners, avoid combatants and other obstacles while building momentum for the inevitable clash of arms.

Improved Mobility:
At 3rd level, a Myrmidon Legend can avoid most melee based attacks as long as he keeps moving. His AC bonus from the Mobility feat increases by two to +6. At 7th level, the Myrmidon Legend's AC bonus from the Mobility feat increases by two more to +8.

Fast Entry:
At 4th level, a Myrmidon Legend learns to enter combat so quickly his opponents cannot react. A Myrmidon Legend gains the Quick Reconnoiter feat even if he does not meet the prerequisites. This stacks with the improved initiative feat. In addition, when taking a RUN action, he no longer provokes AoOs when moving through threatened squares.

Quick Defense:
At 5th level the Myrmidon Legend is so fast he can dodge blows before they hit him. A Myrmidon Legend gains a +2 dodge bonus to his AC during any round in which he moves more than 5’. In addition, in any round in which the Myrmidon Legend moves twice his base speed or more, he also gains a +2 bonus to his reflex saves. This bonus lasts until the Myrmidon Legend’s next turn. At 8th level, the AC and Reflex save bonuses increase to +4.

Difficult Target:
At 6th level a Myrmidon Legend is harder to target with ranged attacks. In any round in which the Myrmidon Legend moves twice his base land speed or more, he gains a +4 dodge bonus to AC versus all ranged attacks. This bonus stacks with the one from Quick Defense and Improved Quick Defense, and lasts until the Myrmidon Legend’s next turn.

Unhindered Charge:
At 7th level, the charge of a Myrmidon Legend is almost unstoppable. At any point during a charge, the Myrmidon Legend can attempt to move through a square occupied by an opponent of equal size to the Myrmidon Legend or smaller. This ability does not work against any opponent one or more size categories larger than the Myrmidon Legend. This is treated as an overrun with the following differences. 1) It does not provoke an attack of opportunity, and 2) if the opponent attempts to block, the Myrmidon Legend adds his class level to the opposed Str test.

Lightning Strike:
At 8th level a Myrmidon Legend’s charge is so deadly and surprising that opponents have a hard time reacting to the attack. A Myrmidon Legend’s bonus to his attack rolls when making a normal (not Lethal) charge attack increases to +4 and he deals +1D6 points of damage on the attack.

Lethal Charge:
At 9th level, the Myrmidon Legend may quickly strike down his foes. As a full round action, a Myrmidon Legend may make a special charge attack with a -4 penalty to his AC for one round. However, he gets to make a single melee attack at a -4 penalty against a number of foes he threatens along the path to his intended target equal to his class level. While performing a Lethal Charge, the Myrmidon Legend does NOT gain the benefits of his Lightning Strike or Undhindered Charge abilities. A Lethal Charge MUST be a continuous straight line, so the Myrmidon Legend cannot make any turns and does not benefit from AGILE RUNNER or any other ability that allow turning during a charge. Also, during a Lethal Charge the Myrmidon Legend must move at least 10' before he is able to attack any foes that he threatens.

Please note that a LETHAL CHARGE is a special charge-like action. Any ability that allows the Myrmidon Legend to make a full attack at the end of a charge cannot be used with Lethal Charge. Also, other abilities that grant extra attacks like Cleave cannot be used during a Lethal Charge.

Stroke of the Gods:
At 10th level, a Myrmidon Legend has learned how to quickly deliver a killing blow to enemy champions and commanders. As a full round action, the Myrmidon Legend makes a special charge at an opponent and must be using a spear or shortsword. When he gets within reach, he makes a 5' move to the side (or forward-diagonal). The Myrmidon Legend then makes a jump check opposed by double the opponents BAB. If the opponent wins the opposed check, he gets an AoO on the Myrmidon Legend. If that AoO hits, the Myrmidon Legend can still make a normal attack, but his Stroke of Gods attempt is foiled. If the Myrmidon Legend wins the opposed check he avoids the AoO and rolls to hit as normal. If the attack is successful, it counts as an automatic critical and the target must make a Fort or Ref save (whichever is higher) vs a DC of 10+1/2 the Myrmidon Legend's Level+the Myrmidon Legend's Str bonus or be instantly reduced to 0 HP.

Like Lethal Charge, Stroke of the Gods is a special charge action and abilities that allow the Myrmidon Legend to make a full attack at the end of a charge cannot be used. Nor can the following abilites be used with a Stroke of the Gods attempt: Unhindered Charge, Lightning Strike, or Lethal Charge.

This ability is considered a precision-based attack (and thus does not function against undead, constructs, etc) and can only be used against enemies with a discernible anatomy who are no more than one size category larger than the Myrmidon Legend (if the enemy is one size category larger, the Myrmidon Legend takes a -5 penalty to the jump check).

Other related Greek Combat Feats:

1) Power Shot: [General]
Prerequisites: Power Attack, Str 15
Your skill with throwing the spear and javelin is unequalled.
Benefit: On your action, before making attack rolls for a round, you may, as a full round action, choose to subtract a number from your ranged attack roll with a spear or javelin and add the double that number to the ranged attack's damage roll. This number may not exceed your base attack bonus. A spear thrown using this feat is impossible to catch or deflect.

Note: It is not possible to use this feat while throwing a spear caught in the same round.

2) Close Quarters Expertise: [Fighter]
Prerequisites: Weapon Focus Shortsword, Improved Shield Bash, BAB: +6
You are skilled in getting in close to an opponent and using your shield to keep him from bringing his weapon to bear.
Benefit: To use this feat, you must be using a shield and you must first enter your opponent’s square and incur an AoO from this movement. If the opponent’s AoO is successful, you immediately move back to your own square and cannot use this feat for the rest of the round.

If the opponent’s AoO fails, you immediately make an opposed attack roll. If you succeed, you have pinned your opponents weapon and they lose any Dex/Dodge/Fighting Defensively/Total Defense/Combat Expertise bonuses to AC until their next action. You can make a full attack against the opponent at their reduced AC. If you fail the opposed attack roll, the opponent maintains their full AC, but must move out of your square if they wish to use any large size or larger weapons.

This feat is ineffective against opponents with natural weapons or those fighting unarmed.

3) Shield Specialization [General]
Prerequisite: Shield Proficiency, BAB: +6
Benefit: Once per round, a shield bearer can make a single shield bash attack at his highest BAB and without incurring any penalties for two weapon fighting, but still loses the shield’s AC bonus until his next turn (unless he also has Improved Shield Bash).

4) Shield Swing [General]
Prerequisite: Str 13, Shield Proficiency
Benefit: You are adept at shield use and can pull a shield form your back, swing it around, slip your arms through the straps, grip the hand strap, and be ready to use the shield as a free action.
Normal: Readying a shield is a move action.

The Spartan Hoplite was the apex of ground-based military forces until the end of the Bronze age. Trained from birth in the art of war, Hoplites were taught that dying for one’s country was the greatest honor a man could gain in his lifetime. Savaged beyond belief in their lifelong training, these Spartans, members of a single city, held back the invasions of many nations for hundreds of years until the cultural hegemony of Rome finally did what Xerxes and his hordes could not. Even still, the Romans recognized the inherent strength of the fighting style, and adapted it to become one of the greatest empires the world has ever known.

Entry Requirements:
BAB: +6
Skills: Intimidate 9 ranks, Profession (Soldier) 5 ranks.
Feats: Phalanx Fighter, Shield Bash, Weapon Focus (Shortsword or Longspear), Heavy Shield Proficiency.
Special: Must have been trained as a Spartan warrior since birth.

Spartan Oath: When a Spartan warrior joins the ranks of the hoplites, he takes an oath that reflects a budding determination that wells up within himself. He may no longer flee a battle or surrender voluntarily under any circumstances. If a Hoplite does so, he loses all benefits from this class until he seeks an Atonement spell. Even still, other Hoplites will forevermore view him as a deserter or a coward (depending on whether he fled or surrendered), and may at their option suspend the benefit granted by the From Thigh to Neck class feature.

From Thigh to Neck: The strength of a Spartan Hoplite comes not from the strength of his own arm, but from the protection of the hoplite to either side of him. Each warrior shields the next as he makes an attack, and is in turn shielded when he strikes. A Spartan Hoplite gains a +2 bonus to AC when he is adjacent to 2 allies that would flank him if they were enemy units.

Versatile Weapon: At first level, the Spartan Hoplite must choose to specialize with either his sword or spear. If he chooses spear, he may wield his Longspear as though it were a one-handed weapon. If he chooses sword, he may throw his Shortsword with a range increment of 10 feet, and as though he had the Power Throw feat.

Versatile Shield Bash: If a Spartan Hoplite of second level chooses to do so, he may make a special Shield Bash as the first attack of a full-round attack, but only if his opponent begins the round directly adjacent to the Hoplite. Resolve this attack as a Bull Rush attempt against which the hoplite’s target is granted no attack of opportunity; the Shield Bash does no damage and, if the opposed Strength check is successful, the Hoplite’s target is moved five feet directly away from the Hoplite.

Short Haft: At third level, the Spartan Hoplite gains Short Haft as a bonus feat.

Improved Shield Bash” At third level, a Spartan Hoplite may forego the benefits he would both grant and be granted by the From Thigh To Neck class feature. If he does so, he may make Shield Bash attacks with a Heavy Shield for that round with no penalty to attack for wielding an offhand weapon.

Phalanx: A group of fourth level or higher Spartan Hoplites may choose to form a phalanx. If they do so, they must form into a unit at least half as deep as it is wide, and with no spare room on the interior. Doing so is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunities only if a member would have to move through a threatened square to reach his designated location, in which case attacks of opportunity occur as normal. Spartan Hoplites in a phalanx count as a collective creature of a size equal to its’ depth for the purposes of determining vulnerability to all attacks (such as grappling, Swallow Whole, etc.). Each round, the phalanx must adjust to fill any gaps left by fallen members or the benefit of this ability is lost.

Missile Immunity: If a fifth level Spartan Hoplite takes a total defense action, he is immune to any physical projectiles fired at him, such as arrows, sling bullets, and javelins, even if they’re magically enchanted. Targeted, magical projectiles, such as Melf’s Acid Arrow and Magic Missile, may strike them as normal.

Unity: A unit of Spartan Hoplites arrayed into a phalanx may take its actions as a single entity. Each individual makes its movements and attack rolls individually, but they happen for all purposes simultaneously.

Blastproof: A Spartan Hoplite may substitute a Fortitude save any time a Reflex save is called for, at his option. Further, if he does so to resist part of an area effect spell, he takes no effect on a successful save.

Weapon Specialization: A Spartan Hoplite of seventh level gains Weapon Specialization with his choice of Longspear or Shortsword as a bonus feat. If he already has Weapon Specialization with either, he may instead take Greater Weapon Specialization with that weapon.

Prepare for Glory: At eighth level, a Spartan Hoplite is close to realizing the ideal of his people as a warrior. Whenever he is reduced below 50% of his total HP, he is affected by a rage, as the barbarian ability. If he is ever restored to above 50% of his health, he suffers no ill effect from ending a rage. More, when the combat ends, he suffers no ill effect for ending a rage.

Unfellable: The greatest Spartan Hoplites are no stranger to pain, and are particularly resistant to even the most grievous of wounds. A Hoplite of this level does not die until he is reduced to a number of negative hit points equal to his constitution modifier. Thus, a Hoplite with a constitution of 20 would not die unless reduced to -20 HP or more. More, if a Hoplite is reduced to negative HP but not killed, he automatically stabilizes.

Glory: At tenth level, a Spartan Hoplite’s determination and steadfastness reach their peak, allowing him to fight on long after lesser warriors would die. When reduced to negative hit points, a Spartan Hoplite does not fall, but instead continues to fight. Taking a standard or full-round action provokes one point of damage as usual. However, the Hoplite does not bleed for one point of damage per turn (as per Unfellable). Finally, when a Spartan Hoplite is reduced to negative HP, the benefit from his Prepare for Glory class feature is tripled, and the effect lasts until the end of the current combat, even if his HP are restored. Afterwards, however, he is fatigued until he can gain one full night’s sleep.

Spell Notes: A list of each spell’s source is at the end of this post.

Porcelain [3rd/6th/9th level]: Her skin is as smooth and unblemished as fine porcelain, resilient to imperfection and marring. She receives the indicated damage reduction against piercing and slashing attacks.

Mirror Mirror [4th level]: The paragon of beauty finds power in her own reflection. Once per day, she may look into any surface in which she can clearly see her own reflection, such as a mirror or the face of a tranquil pool of water, and request information. Making her request requires that she gaze into her own reflection for 10 full minutes. She may request to either see a specific creature, as the scrying spell cast by a bard of her caster level, or ask a question about the future, as the divination spell cast by a cleric of her caster level. The source of this information is often a deity of love, beauty, or vanity, or some nameless entity. Mirror Mirror is a spell-like ability.

The paragon of beauty can enhance Mirror Mirror with the Extra Paragon of Beauty Ability feat.

Accessorize [5th level]: The paragon of beauty adorns herself with beautiful magic items. She selects one of the following feats, even if she does not otherwise qualify for the feat chosen: Extra Amulet, Extra Belt, Extra Bracers, Extra Cloak, or Extra Ring.

Unbound Beauty [5th level]: Her beauty transcends race. Three times per day, her Enchanting ability can manifest as charm monster, as the spell cast by a bard of her caster level.

The paragon of beauty can enhance Unbound Beauty with the Charm a Crowd, Descriptor Focus, Extra Enchanting, Extra Paragon of Beauty Ability, and Subschool Focus feats.

Icon [7th level]: She attracts admirers and lovers like bees to honey. The paragon of beauty gain the Leadership feat for free.

Ageless Beauty [8th level]: She remains forever beautiful. The paragon of beauty no longer takes penalties to her ability scores for aging and cannot be magically aged. Any such penalties that she has already taken, however, remain in place. Bonuses still accrue, and the paragon of beauty still dies of old age when her time is up. This is an extraordinary ability.

Nymph’s Gaze [9th level]: The paragon of beauty can tap the natural power of the nymph. Once per day, she can initiate Nymph’s Gaze as a spell-like ability, and its effect lasts for 1 round for every two levels of paragon of beauty. While in effect, all creatures who look directly at her must make a Will save (DC 10 + paragon of beauty level + Charisma modifier) or be blinded by her beauty for 1d6 rounds. In addition, once per round while Nymph’s Gaze is in effect she may target any creature within 30 feet; if that creature fails a Fortitude save (DC 10 + paragon of beauty level + Charisma modifier) or be stunned for 2d4 rounds.

The paragon of beauty can enhance Nymph’s Gaze with the Extra Paragon of Beauty Ability feat.

Perfection [10th level]: She is perfection, absolute perfection. The paragon of beauty becomes immune to all disease, poison, Charisma damage (but not Charisma drain), and Transmutation spells that specifically target her with the purpose of changing her form against her will (baleful polymorph, stone to flesh, etc.), as if she has magic resistance that cannot be overcome. In addition, at 10th level and every 10 levels thereafter, she receives a +2 inherent bonus to Charisma.

Epic Paragon of Beauty: The epic-level paragon of beauty continues her Hit Die, skill point, Enchanting, Perfection, and Unearthly Grace progressions. In addition, she receives bonus epic feats at 13th level and every three levels thereafter (13th, 16th, 19th, 22nd, etc).
