The '''Hunters of the Stag''' are an animist sect who worship Horjin, the Tiger-God of the Hunt. '''Abilities:''' Charisma is your best ability, considering it dictates your class skills. Dexterity is good as well, since it dictates your archery prowess. Strength or Constitution is a good final choice as well, if only for the inherent bonuses they'll give you. '''Races:''' Most Hunters of the Stag are human, though elves have also been known to become Hunters. Most other races don't show the dedication necessary. '''Alignment:''' Hunters of the Stag tend towards neutrality. They must also be good. '''Hit Die:''' d8 '''Starting Gold''': 2d4x10 gp. '''Starting Age''': As fighter (PH 109). ==Class Features== '''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' Hunters of the Stag are proficient with all simple weapons and all bows. They are also proficient with light and medium armor, but not with shields. '''Class Skills''' (6 + Int modifier per level, x4 at 1st level): Climb, Concentration, Craft, Heal, Hide, Knowledge (Nature), Listen, Move Silently, Profession, Ride, Spot, Survival '''Nine Traditions of Sagittarius''': Hunters of the Stag must follows this code of conduct at all times, or they lose all of their totem abilities until they atone for their sins. :1. Hospitality<br> ::''Everyone, regardless of race, creed, or nationality, shall be provided hospice.'' :2. The Sacred Hunt<br> ::''You have been granted a [[Sacred Hunt]] and a [[Quarry]]. It is your purpose to pursue them without relenting.'' :3. Peace<br> ::''We are more than animals, and armed conflict is the way of beasts. Do not fight without honor or reason.'' :4. Artistry<br> ::''Art is what separates man from beast. The pursuit of the arts, in any form, should take precedence in your life.'' :5. Commune<br> ::''Show others the respect you wish to receive yourself.'' :6. Domain<br> ::''The earth is sacred land. Treat it as such, and punish those who don't.'' :7. Destruction<br> ::''Should the earth, the arts, or nature ever be threatened, it is your responsibility to protect them with your life.'' :8. Station<br> ::''Show respect to those of higher station than you, but only respect they deserve.'' :9. Mission<br> ::''It is your duty as a Hunter to cull the weak and promote evolution as best you can--even at the risk of making a species extinct.'' '''Sacred Hunt:''' Hunters of the Stag all have a quest given to them by Horjin. Sometimes this quest doesn't make sense to the Hunter, but they are expected to follow it anyway. The DM should choose a Sacred Hunt for the Hunter at character creation and tell the player what it is (but not necessarily understandably: gods communicate cryptically). Treat this as a ''geas/quest'' spell that is permanent and cannot be dispelled. '''Quarry''': Similar to the Sacred Hunt, Hunters of the Stag set a personal goal for themselves. This should be chosen at character creation by the player and should never change (unless the goal is accomplished, in which case the character should choose a new one). Treat this as a ''lesser geas'' spell that is permanent and cannot be dispelled. '''Weapon of Choice''': Hunters of the Stag focus on a particular weapon throughout their training. As such, they may select any one weapon (simple, martial, or exotic) at 1st level and gain the required proficiencies for that weapon. They also acquire the Weapon Focus feat for the appropriate weapon. '''Totem''': At 2nd level, a Hunter of the Stag bonds with a nature spirit, chosen from the following list. This choice dictates their totem abilities. '''Track''': At 3rd level, a Hunter of the Stag gains the Track feat. '''Endurance''': At 4th level, a Hunter of the Stag gains the Endurance feat. '''Woodland Stride''': At 7th level, a Hunter of the Stag may move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at his normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment. However, thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that are enchanted or magically manipulated to impede motion still affect him. '''Swift Track''': At 8th level, a Hunter of the Stag can move at his normal speed while following tracks without taking the normal -5 penalty. He takes only a -10 penalty (instead of the normal -20) when moving at up to twice normal speed while tracking. '''Improved Weapon of Choice''': At 10th level, a Hunter's prowess with their chosen weapon increases. They receive the Weapon Specialization and Greater Weapon Focus feats for the appropriate weapon, even if they don't qualify for the feats. '''Greater Weapon of Choice''': At 15th level, a Hunter's prowess with their chosen weapon increases further. They receive the Greater Weapon Specialization feat, even if they don't qualify for the feat. In addition, they receive the Crushing Strike feat if their weapon is a melee bludgeoning weapon; the Driving Attack feat if their weapon is a melee piercing weapon; the Slashing Flurry feat if their weapon is a melee slashing weapon; or the Penetrating Shot feat if their weapon is a ranged weapon. They do not need to qualify for these feats in order to obtain them. '''Supreme Weapon of Choice''': At 20th level, a Hunter's prowess with their chosen weapon increases to legendary levels. They receive the Weapon Supremacy feat for their chosen weapon, even if they don't qualify for the feat. ====Religion==== All Hunters of the Stag worship Horjin, the Tiger-God of the Hunt. ==Hunter of the Stag Progression== {|border=1px !Level !!BAB !!Fort !!Ref !!Will !!Special !!Effective Totem Rank |- |1st || +0 || +2 || +0 || +2 || Nine Traditions of Sagittarius, Sacred Hunt, Quarry, Weapon of Choice || 1 |- |2nd || +1 || +3 || +0 || +3 || Totem || 2 |- |3rd || +2 || +3 || +1 || +3 || Track || 3 |- |4th || +3 || +4 || +1 || +4 || Endurance || 4 |- |5th || +3 || +4 || +1 || +4 || - || 5 |- |6th || +4 || +5 || +2 || +5 || - || 6 |- |7th || +5 || +5 || +2 || +5 || Woodland Stride || 7 |- |8th || +6/+1 || +6 || +2 || +6 || Swift Tracker || 8 |- |9th || +6/+1 || +6 || +3 || +6 || - || 9 |- |10th || +7/+2 || +7 || +3 || +7 || Improved Weapon of Choice || 10 |- |11th || +8/+3 || +7 || +3 || +7 || - || 11 |- |12th || +9/+4 || +8 || +4 || +8 || - || 12 |- |13th || +9/+4 || +8 || +4 || +8 || - || 13 |- |14th || +10/+5 || +9 || +4 || +9 || - || 14 |- |15th || +11/+6/+1 || +9 || +5 || +9 || Greater Weapon of Choice || 15 |- |16th || +12/+7/+2 || +10 || +5 || +10 || - || 16 |- |17th || +12/+7/+2 || +10 || +5 || +10 || - || 17 |- |18th || +13/+8/+3 || +11 || +6 || +11 || - || 18 |- |19th || +14/+9/+4 || +11 || +6 || +11 || - || 19 |- |20th || +15/+10/+5 || +12 || +6 || +12 || Supreme Weapon of Choice || 20 |} ===Totems=== ====Ape==== ETR 2: The Hunter treats Balance as a class skill.

He concerns himwelf with the protection of nature and the proliferation of harmony between nature and the intelligent races. He resides in a subplane of the Beastlands, the Island of Naudia'Diva, eternally hunting big game. '''History/Relationships:''' Horjin began his life as a regular tiger, but was blessed with intelligence and godhood for his prowess after he brought a deity's avatar to a stalemate. Horjin has little interaction with other gods. '''Dogma:''' The Nine Traditions of Sagittarius are to be followed at all times. Your Sacred Hunt and your Quarry precede everything: follow them with all your heart. Do not fight when your time comes: you have served the earth in your time. '''Clergy:''' There are very few priests of Horjin, though those that exist are zealous in their beliefs. They tend to be leaders to the Hunters, though a few travel the lands as recruiters of a sort. There are three leaders within the church: the First, the High Priest, and the ''Aurajinrale''. The First is the best Hunters among the Hunters, and epitomizes each of the Nine Traditions of Sagittarius. Most First have hunted the majority of the creatures over the land, or at least dueled with them. Few are intellectual or patient enough to go beyond rudimentary magic, but this--like all rules--has exceptions. The High Priest is the spiritual leader of the Hunters, arbiter in most disputes, and caretaker of the Temple. He is well-versed in Horjinic scripture and magic, and is accepted as the living embodiment of Sagittarius, the first Hunter of the Stag. The ''Aurajinrale'' is a genetic descendant of Torat, the first Aurajinrale, and is <u>usually</u> female. Aurajinralek all have visions and act as the High Priest's assistant in most religious ceremonies.
