==Class Features==
 +
'''HD:''' d8
 +
 
 +
'''Prowess:''' A medium gains 4 points of prowess per level.
 +
 
 +
'''Skills''' A medium is trained in the Proselytizer and Psion skill sets, as well as one additional set of their choosing.
 +
 
 +
'''Proficiencies:''' A medium is proficient in all simple weapons, plus any two weapon groups of their choice. A medium is also proficient with light armor and shields.
 +
 
 +
'''Power Points/Day [Progressing, Psionic]:''' A medium's ability to manifest powers is limited by the power points she has available. Her base daily allotment of power points is given on the table. In addition, she receives bonus power points per day if she has a high Charisma score. Her race may also provide bonus power points per day, as may certain feats and items.
 +
 
 +
'''Powers Known [Progressing, Psionic]:''' A medium begins play knowing one medium power of her choice. At the levels indicated on the table, she unlocks the knowledge of new powers.
 +
 
 +
Choose the powers known from the medium power list. (Exception: The feat Expanded Knowledge allows a medium to learn powers from the lists of other classes.) A medium can manifest any power that has a power point cost equal to or lower than her manifester level.
 +
 
 +
The total number of powers a medium can manifest in a day is limited only by her daily power points.
 +
 
 +
A medium simply knows her powers; they are ingrained in her mind. She does not need to prepare them (in the way that some spellcasters prepare their spells), though she must get a good night's sleep each day to regain all her spent power points.
 +
 
 +
The Difficulty Class for saving throws against medium powers is 10 + the power's level + the medium's Charisma modifier.
 +
 
 +
'''Maximum Power Level Known [Progressing, Psionic]:''' A medium begins play with the ability to learn 1st-level powers. As she attains higher levels, she may gain the ability to master more complex powers.
 +
 
 +
To learn or manifest a power, a medium must have a Charisma score of at least 10 + the power's level.
 +
 
 +
'''Psiumbral Companion (Su) [Companion, Progressing, Psionic]:''' Like a psicrystal, a psiumbral is a fragment of a psionic person's personaly. However, unlike a psicrystal, a psiumbral is a manifestation of a psychic talent now deceased, brought back into metaphysical form and a semblance of life. A psiumbral usually appears as a ball of ectoplasm about the size of a human hand, though they sometimes take other, similarly-sized forms.
 +
 
 +
Due to the unique bond between a medium and their psiumbral companion, a medium treats their companion nearly as an extension of their physical selves.
 +
 
 +
A psiumbral is a creature of the Avatar type with the Incorporeal and Undead subtypes. As a supernatural manifestation of a soul departed, entering an area where magic is suppressed (such as an ''antimagic field'') causes the psiumbral to disappear until either the suppression is removed or the medium moves outside of the area of suppression.
 +
 
 +
A psiumbral grants special abilities to its owner, as shown on the Psiumbral Special Abilities table below. In addition, a psiumbral manifests a specific amount of knowledge from their experience. Unfortunately, their entire repertoire of experience has largely been erased by the rigors of time, but they do retain a significant amount of practical knowledge that they are readily able to apply, which gives its owner a bonus on certain types of checks or saving throws, as given on the Psiumbral Personalities table below. These special abilities and bonuses apply only when the owner and the psiumbral are within 1 mile of each other.
 +
 
 +
Unlike psicrystals, psiumbrals abilities are based on the owner's levels in the medium class. Levels from other classes (including psionic classes) that do not advance [Companion] features do not advance a psiumblal.
 +
 
 +
A psiumbral can speak one language it spoke in life, as well as any automatic languages provided by its master's race. A psiumbral can understand all other languages known by its master but cannot speak them.

 +
 
 +
''Hit Dice:'' A psiumbral has Avatar Hit Dice equal to the medium's Manifester Level, unadjusted for any temporary bonuses (such as those provided by items, powers, spells, or other temporary effects).
 +
 
 +
''Saving Throws:'' A psiumbral uses the saving throws provided by its Avatar Hit Dice.
 +
 
 +
''Abilities:'' Due to their incorporeality and their Undead subtype, a psiumbral companion has no Strength or Constitution score. In all other instances, use the medium's ability scores minus five to determine the psiumbral's ability scores.
 +
 
 +
''Items:'' A psiumbral, regardless of any form it takes, does not have the full suite of item slots that most creatures have: they only possess one item slot, though it may be filled with a ring or throat slot item. In addition, due to their incorporeality, a psiumbral may only use items that have the ''ghost touch'' special property or are capable of interacting with an incorporeal creature.
 +
 
 +
''Skills:'' A psiumbral is trained in the same skill sets as its master and is also trained in the Scout skill set.
 +
 
 +
''Attacks:'' A psiumbral has a single attack: an incorporeal touch attack that deals 1d4 points of entropic damage. The psiumbral adds its Intelligence modifier to this damage.
 +
 
 +
''Deflection Bonus (Su):'' This number noted here is an improvement to the psiumbral's defelection bonus to AC (normally based on Charisma). It represents a psiumbrals's preternatural durability.
 +
 
 +
''Intelligence Bonus:'' Add this value to the psiumbral's Intelligence score. Psiumbrals recover their memories and their intelligence as their bond with the medium improves.
 +
 
 +
''Chill of the Grave (Pr):'' A psiumbral occupying the same square as another creature--other than its master--inflicts a -1 penalty on saving throws to that creature.
 +
 
 +
''Skinride (Pr):'' A psiumbral occupying its master's square can "ride" her body. Mechanically, this means that the medium carries the psiumbral within their flesh, and the psiumbral moves with the medium. A psiumbral that is skinriding cannot be specifically targeted or affected by powers or abilities.
 +
 
 +
''Personality (Ex):'' Every psiumbral has a remnant personality. See Psiumbral Personality, below.
 +
 
 +
''Share Powers (Su):'' At the medium's option, she can have any power (but not any psi-like ability) she manifests on himself also affect her psiumbral. The psiumbral must be within 5 feet of her at the time of the manifestation to receive the benefit. If the power has a duration other than instantaneous, it stops affecting the psiumbral if it moves farther than 5 feet away, and will not affect the psiumbral again, even if it returns to its owner before the duration expires.
 +
 
 +
Additionally, the owner can manifest a power with a range of "Personal" on her psiumbral (as a touch range power) instead of on herself. The owner and psiumbral cannot share powers if the powers normally do not affect creatures of the psiumbral's type or subtype.
 +
 
 +
''Sighted (Ex):'' Although it has no physical sensory organs, a psiumbral can telepathically sense its environment as well as a creature with normal vision and hearing. Darkness (even supernatural darkness) is irrelevant, as are areas of supernatural silence, though a psiumbral still can't discern invisible or ethereal beings. A psiumbral's sighted range is 40 feet.
 +
 
 +
''Telepathic Link (Su):'' The owner has a telepathic link with her psiumbral out to a distance of up to 1 mile. The owner cannot see through the psiumbral's senses, but the two of them can communicate telepathically as if the psiumbral were the target of a ''mindlink'' power manifested by the owner. For instance, a psiumbral in a distant room could relay the activities occurring in that room.
 +
 
 +
Because of the telepathic link between a psiumbral and its owner, the owner has the same connection to an item or place that the psiumbral does. For instance, if her psiumbral has seen a room, the owner can teleport into that room as if she has seen it too.
 +
 
 +
''Avatar Traits:'' Psiumbrals share similarities with all other forms of Avatar. See the Avatar type for details.
 +
 
 +
''Undead Traits:'' Psiumbrals share similarities with all other forms of Undead. See the Undead subtype for details.
 +
 
 +
''Incorporeal Traits:'' Psiumbrals, being essentially ghosts, are incorporeal creatures. This grants them a number of benefits. See the Incorporeal subtype for details.
 +
 
 +
''Deliver Touch Powers (Ex):'' If the owner is 3rd level or higher, her psiumbral can deliver touch powers for her. If the owner and psiumbral are in contact at the time the owner manifests a touch power, she can designate her psiumbral as the "toucher." The psiumbral can then deliver the touch power just as the owner could. As usual, if the owner manifests another power before the touch is delivered, the touch power dissipates.
 +
 
 +
''Telepathic Speech (Ex):'' If the owner is 5th level or higher, the psiumbral can communicate telepathically with any creature that has a language and is within 30'.
 +
 
 +
''Power Resistance (Ex):'' If the owner is 11th level or higher, the psicrystal gains power resistance equal to the owner's level + 5. To affect the psiumbral with a power, another manifester must get a result on a manifester level check that equals or exceeds the psiumbral's power resistance.
 +
 
 +
''Sight Link (Ps):'' If the owner is 13th level or higher, the character can ''remote view'' the psiumbral (as if manifesting the ''remote view'' power) once per day.
 +
 
 +
''Channel Power (Ex):'' If the owner is 15th level or higher, she can manifest powers through the psiumbral to a distance of up to 1 mile. The psiumbral is treated as the power's originator, and all ranges are calculated from its location.
 +
 
 +
When channeling a power through her psiumbral , the owner manifests the power by paying its power point cost, plus one additional power point per 100' of distance between her and the psiumbral (rounded down). She is still subject to attacks of opportunity and other hazards of manifesting a power, if applicable (for instance, she becomes visible when manifesting an offensive power if invisible, as does the psiumbral).
 +
 
 +
''Psiumbral Past Life (Ex):'' Each psiumbral has a distinct personality and knowledge remaining from its past life, chosen from among those given on the following table. At lower levels, the personality is usually very subdued, but as the psiumbral reawakens to the knowledge of their past life, their personality becomes more pronounced. At higher levels, it is not uncommon for a psiumbral to constantly ply its owner with observations and advice, often severely slanted toward the psiumbral's particular worldview.

'''Spiritspeech (Ps):''' A medium, through their connection to the deceased, have a moderate ability to speak with the fallen regardless of their form. Once per day per point of Charisma modifier, a medium can manifest the ''[[deathvoice]]'' power as a psi-like ability.
 +
 
 +
'''Voices of the Fallen (Su):''' Starting at second level, a medium can tap into the knowledge of those slain before him and use some of their experience. Once per day at second level, and once more for each three class levels thereafter, a medium can add an insight bonus to any one skill check equal to half her class level (round down). Activating this ability is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity. The bonus remains for a number of rounds equal to the medium's Intelligence modifier or until the medium fails a skill check.
 +
 
 +
'''Frightful Manifestation (Su):''' At third level, a medium's manifestation of powers emanates fell energies from the spirits she draws power from. Creatures within 10' of a medium whenever she manifests a power must succeed on a Will save (DC 10 + power level) or become shaken. A creature who successfully saves against this effect is immune to it for 24 hours. This is a mind-affecting fear ability.
 +
 
 +
'''Clutch of the Grave (Su):''' Foes that perish near a medium fuel her powers. Starting at fourth level, whenever a foe drops within 10 feet of a medium, she immediately gains 5 temporary hit points and adds her Charisma modifier to damage rolls (including that of manifested powers). Both effects last until the end of her next turn.
 +
 
 +
'''Resistant Mind (Su):''' At fifth level, a medium gains the understanding of how ghosts and other spirits occasionally inhabit the bodies of the living. She gains immunity to possession. This ability does not interfere with her psiumbral's skinride ability.
 +
 
 +
At tenth level, this ability improves. A medium begins to be able to emulate the hard-to-hit nature of incorporeal creatures. She applies her Charisma modifier to her Armor Class as a Deflection bonus.
 +
 
 +
At sixteenth level, this ability further improves. A medium at that point is shielded both mind and body, and is able to apply a bonus equal to her Charisma modifier to her saving throws.
 +
 
 +
'''Wrath of the Fallen (Su):''' Channeling the will of the deceased, a medium of seventh level or higher is able to increase her ability to strike her opponents. To activate this ability, the medium must spend power points equal to or less than her manifester level. In exchange, her attacks--both of natural attacks and of wielded weapons--gain the ''ghost touch'' property, and she gains a bonus to attack rolls equal to half the power points spent. This ability lasts for one minute, and is a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity to activate.
 +
 
 +
'''Visages:''' A medium of seventh level or higher gains the ability to invoke a primal essence of death, inflicting the terrors of a particular demise on her opponents. This manifests itself as a gaze attack. A medium knows one visage at seventh level, and learns one additional visage at thirteenth and nineteenth levels. Each visage has its own unique gaze attack that is activated by expending ones psionic focus and a number power points as part of a standard action. Once activated, a visage stays active for a number of rounds equal to the power points spent to activate it.
 +
 
 +
A visage's effect is treated as any other gaze attack is. A visage's DC is 10 + half the number of power points spent to activate it (round down) + the medium's Charisma modifier. The effects of a visage affect an opponent for a number of rounds equal to the medium's Intelligence modifier.
 +
 
 +
''Despair:'' A medium wearing a visage of despair gains the ability to demoralize her opponents. Foes who fail a Will save take a -2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, ability checks, skill checks, and weapon damage rolls.
 +
 
 +
''Fate:'' A medium wearing a visage of fate gains the ability to terrify her opponents. Foes who fail a Will save become frightened.
 +
 
 +
''Madness:'' A medium wearing a visage of madness gains the ability to confuse her opponents. Foes who fail a Will save become confused.
 +
 
 +
''Martyrdom:'' A medium wearing a visage of martyrdom gains the ability to retributively deal damage to her opponents. Foes who fail a Will save become unable to damage their opponents without damaging themselves. For each two points of damage dealt to another, they are likewise dealt one point of damage in return of the same type.
 +
 
 +
''Mystery:'' A medium wearing a visage of mystery gains the ability to alter the perceptions of her foes. Opponents who fail a Will save are affected as if by the ''false sensory input'' power.
 +
 
 +
''Plague:'' A medium wearing a visage of plague gains the ability to cause disease with but a glance. Foes who fail a Fortitude save become afflicted with a disease, as per the ''contagion'' spell.
 +
 
 +
''Violence:'' A medium wearing a visage of violence gains the ability to transfer wounds with her stare. Foes who fail a Fortitude save are affected as if by the ''death urge'' power.
 +
 
 +
'''Assume Likeness (Su):''' A medium of 8th level and higher can assume the likeness of any Small, Medium, or Large creature as a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. The character’s abilities do not change, but she appears to be the creature that she assumes the likeness of, allowing him the ability to effectively disguise himself and bluff those who might wonder at her true nature. Each physical interaction with a creature requires a successful Bluff check (opposed by the creature’s Sense Motive check) to convince the creature of the medium's new appearance. The medium must not do anything to give away her true nature in order for the bluff to be successful.
 +
 
 +
When using her assume likeness ability, a medium has an additional +10 circumstance bonus on Disguise checks. If she can read an opponent's mind, she gets a further +4 circumstance bonus on Bluff and Disguise checks.
 +
 
 +
'''Fearsome Manifestiation (Su):''' At 11th level, a medium's frightful manifestation ability improves. Its radius expands to 20', and the DC for the ability becomes 10 + power level + Charisma modifier.
 +
 
 +
'''Spiritual Emulation (Su):''' At 20th level, a medium can call upon the experiences of the slain and departed to grant him some of their abilities. As a full round action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, she may spend power points equal to or less than her medium level, as well as expending her psionic focus. Upon doing this, she may temporarily gain one specific class feature from another class, of a maximum level up to one-half the power points spent on this ability. For instance, a medium that spent fourteen power points on this ability could gain a class feature from any other base class of up to seventh level. This is only for that one class ability, not the whole class feature progression. Continuing the example, the medium could select the sneak attack ability of a 7th level rogue, the wild shape ability of a 7th level druid, or the bonus feat gained by a 6th level fighter. In all instances where the class feature acquired mentions levels of the granting class, the medium can treat her medium levels as levels in that class for determining the strength of effects. This temporary ability lasts for a number of rounds equal to the medium's Intelligence modifier. While a medium is using this ability, she cannot regain psychic focus.
