Improved Anvil 7.0 Enhanced Edition

VAGRANT: Vagrants do not stay in a place for long. They spend most of their time exploring new
         wilderness areas and enjoying the beauties of nature. Woodlands and lakes are the most
         favorite places for vagrants. They are very healthy characters with exceptional stamina.
         Vagrants can develop a special kind of friendship with swanmays. Swanmays are very rare
         and special kind of lycanthrope rangers living at lakesides in woodlands and in remote
         temperate wetlands. High level vagrants can call for swanmays' help.

PROTECTOR: Protectors are dedicated defenders of people and nature. They usually take residence
close to people who are in need of help, but they are also always prepared to travel when the
cause is fighting evil. While being great warriors, they can also learn and cast more spells than
other rangers. Protectors have such a strong affinity with mother nature that they never wear
armors greater than the studded leather. This self-imposed limitation has been compensated with
mental and physical abilities. A protector sacrifices a portion of his own health and stamina to
start learning the special protective methods and abilities of his kit.

RISKBREAKER: Riskbreakers are masters of simultaneous speed and accuracy. They have the ability
to move and attack enemies in a way that only a blurred outline of their bodies can be seen.
Riskbreakers have limited access to two mage spells as innate abilities. High level Riskbreakers
gain unique abilities to break the risk involved in most difficult battles. The trainings required

of his health and stamina during the process. Only Humans can be Riskbreakers.

- 25 strength
- Regenerating 12 hp per round

Risk Decrement:
When surrounded by lots of enemies and when most other warriors may fall or surrender in despair,
a high level riskbreaker is more than capable to break the risk involved in the toughest situations.

Risk Decrement has the following effects:
- Heals the riskbreaker completely.
- Applies a massive attack to all enemies around the riskbreaker inflicting 8D10 crushing damage
  with no saving throw.
- Has a good chance to throw back all or some of the enemies.

CHAMPION OF ARVOREEN: Arvoreen is the nearest thing to a halfling war god. He is of stern defense
and aggressive watchfulness, always preparing for incursions into halfling lands and making ready
to repulse hostile creatures at the first sign of trouble. Arvoreen is not exactly a popular power
among most halflings and his priests are often perceived as overly serious and "grumpy as dwarves"
by the Small Folk.

Being a champion of Arvoreen is the closest thing to a paladin that a halfling can strive to become.
The narrowness of society's views on what is right and wrong does not permit a member of the Small Folk
to be pronounced as a holy warrior. It does not mean, however, that he may not be courageous
and decent at heart.

Champions of Arvoreen are brave and honest warriors. While they might lack the advanced expertise and knowledge
of melee combat, Champions fight against evil fiercely and selflessly, and their God rewards their devotion
with powers a mere swordsman would never attain.

Advantages:
- May achieve Grandmastery (five slots) in all weapons that are favoured by the Small Folk:
Short Swords, Daggers, Short Bows and Slings.

- Gains the ability Blessed Watchfulness at level 11.
- Gains the ability Shield of Light at level 12.
- Gains a +3 bonus to Dexterity at level 16.
- Gains a permanent 1/2 bonus to attacks per round at level 22.

Disadvantages:
- Race restricted to Hafling.
- Alignment restricted to Lawful Good.
- May not exceed Mastery (three slots) in single-handed weapons.
- May not exceed Specialization (two slots) in any other weapon.
- May not achieve any proficency in two-handed weapon style.

PRAYER TO ARVOREEN: When a Champion of Arvoreen uses this ability, she calls upon Arvoreen to grant her strength
so she may overcome whatever obstacle lies ahead. The power of the prayer increases along with her devotion to her
god. The ability grants a +20 bonus to maximum HP, +2 bonus to AC and regeneration rate of 1 HP every 2 seconds.
At 13th it becomes 30 HP, +3 bonus to AC and regeneration rate of 1 HP every second. And, finally, at 19th level
the bonuses reach the values of 40 maximum HP, +4 bonus to AC and regeneration rate of 2 HP every second.
The effect lasts for 2 turns.

INVOKE COURAGE: When a Champion of Arvoreen uses this ability, he becomes immune to fear
and gains a +1 bonus to THAC0 as well as to all Saving Throws. At 13th level, the Champion
receives extra +1 bonus and another one at 18th level, to a total of +3. The effect lasts for 2 turns.

BLESSED WATCHFULNESS: By casting this spell, the caster confers exceptional powers of observation and alertness
to one creature for the duration of the spell. While Blessed Watchfulness is in effect, the designated sentinel
remains alert, awake, and vigilant. Those under the effect of this spell resist any spells or effects that could
lower their guards or force them to abandon their watches, including charm, beguiling, fear, emotion, and similar
mind-affecting spells. The ability also grants protection from backstab.
The effects are undispellable and last for 15 rounds.

SHIELD OF LIGHT: This powerful spell grants the caster undispellable protection from level drain as well as
+15% bonus resistance to physical damage for the duration of 15 rounds.

AURAMASTER: Auramasters can use the magical aura and energy spread and floating in the nature and

Descriptions of the new spells:

Level: 6
School: Evocation
Casting Time: 6
Area of Effect: One target
Range: Caster's visual sight
Saving Throw: None

This powerful spell unleashes an outstanding bolt of energy which inflicts 10d8 points of magic
damage to a single target.

Aura Cleansing:
It is the same as the mage HLA, Improved Alacrity.

Perfect Camouflage (Abjuration)
Level: 7
Range: 0
Duration: 20 rounds
Casting Time: 5
Area of Effect: Special
Saving Throw: None

Casting this powerful spell makes the Auramaster druid invisible and immune to all divination
spells for the duration of the spell. If the druid attacks or casts offensive spells during this
period of time, he or she will become partially visible and will be subject to physical attack,
but no spell can be directly cast on him or her. Note that this spell doesn't make the caster
immune to those spells which affect an area instead of an individual target. Since Auramasters
cast spells more quickly than other spellcasters, the effective casting time of this spell is 3.
A successful remove magic can dispel the effects of this spell.

Shamans forge a divine connection with the natural world, similar to the way Druids commune with nature, but Shamans are more spiritual than primal.
They directly tap into the energies that flow through the earth and air, through plants and animals, and even through the dead, and shape these energies
to obey their will. Nowhere is this more evident than in their ability to summon powerful spirits as guardians and defenders. A being of two worlds,
Shamans value balance, physical and spiritual, over dominance.

CLASS FEATURES:

– May only wear leather, studded leather, and hide armor.
– May not equip shields larger than bucklers.
– May only use the following weapons: dagger, club, spear, axe, quarterstaff, dart, sling, and shortbow.
– May only become Proficient (one slot) in any weapon class.
– May only become Proficient (one slot) in any fighting style.
– May cast druidic spells.
– Does not automatically learn all spells of a given level as Druids do. Instead, Shamans select new spells to learn at each level, which they can cast daily without memorization.
– Gains access to a healing technique called mending. Mending spells are the improved versions of the healing spells that supplement their original counterparts inside the spell book upon learning.
– Gains immediate access to a number of additional spells, which can be cast like any other:
  Level 1: Spirit Ward
  Level 2: Resist Fear, Soothing Fog
  Level 3: Protection from Cold, Spiritual Clarity
  Level 4: Spiritual Weapon, Spirit Fire
  Level 5: Entropy Shield, Recall Spirit
  Level 6: Impervious Sanctity of Mind, Primal Ward

– May use Shamanic Dance at will.
– May use Spirit Shift once per day.
– Does not gain bonus spells per day from high Wisdom.
– Alignment restricted to neutral good, true neutral, and neutral evil.
– Hit Die: d8

MENDING: This is a special variety of healing spells. These spells are pronounced faster than the regular curing magic.
Starting at level 17th, mending spells give a short-term aura cleansing ability that lasts for the next second, allowing Shaman
to transition fluidly from healing to regular spellcasting within the span of a single round. The aura cleansing effect disperses
when a regular spell is cast. Mending is an innate technique that is given automatically when a regular healing spell is learned.

SHAMANIC DANCE: Shamans can summon spirit allies by performing a ritualistic dance. While dancing, the Shaman takes a -4 penalty to Armor Class
and cannot move, attack, cast spells, use items and special abilities, or perform any other activity. Each round while the Shaman dances, there is
a 35% base chance plus 2% for each level of the Shaman that a spirit will answer the call, up to a maximum of 75% at level 20.
Any summoned spirits will disappear if the Shaman moves, stops dancing, or if the spirits leave visual range. The spirits grow in power as the Shaman gains additional levels:
  Level 1: Minor animal spirits (snake, fox, hound), up to 2 spirits at the same time.
  Level 6: Major animal spirits (bear, panther, boar), up to 3 spirits at the same time.
  Level 12: Minor nature spirits (lesser air spirit, lesser earth spirit, lesser fire spirit), up to 4 spirits at the same time.
  Level 18: Major nature spirits (air spirit, earth spirit, fire spirit), up to 5 spirits at the same time.

The type of the summoned spirit is randomly determined from all the spirits available at the Shaman's level. For example, a level 12 Shaman
will summon either a minor nature spirit, a major animal spirit, or a minor animal spirit, but cannot choose which one appears. Spirits will do
their best to protect the Shaman but are not controlled directly.

SPIRIT SHIFT: From the moment of their initiation, Shamans gain the ability to step out of the material plane and give way to a spiritual entity
that posesses their body for a short duration. As the power of Shaman grows, so does his ability to conjure a stronger spirit and bind it for a
longer period of time. Starting at level 1, Shaman may transform into a mighty spiritual warrior for 3 rounds. The power and resilience of the warrior
grows at levels 9, 12 and 16. At level 20 the warrior's strength reaches its peak and duration increases to 4 rounds. At level 24, the duration increases to 5 rounds.

This warrior has been specially trained by their sect to excel in hunting and combating spellcasters of all kinds.

A member of a special sect within the druidic order, a Druid of this type is dedicated
to fighting those who would defile nature. Avengers have combat powers the average Druid does not —
additional abilities that have been earned through extensive training, rituals and communions
with entities from higher planes, a process that is very physically draining and forces them
to give up some of their affinity towards nature and special powers that come with it.

Advantages:
- Gains two stars in two-handed weapon mastery.
- May achieve mastery in staffs and spears.
- May achieve specialization in weapons that are allowed to the druid domain.
- Seven spells are added to the repertoire, all the way up to the 7th level. These are listed below:

1st level: Remove Fear.
2nd level: Draw Upon Holy Might.
3rd level: Protection from Cold.
4rd level: Holy Power.
5th level: Righteous Magic.
6th level: Giant Strength.
7th level: Protection from the Elements.

- May use Combat Trance ability once per day. Gains one use at level 13 and an additional use
every 6 levels thereafter.
- At 9th level, receives a special ability Conjure Clan Spirit.
- Gains a special high level ability Perform Ritual.

Disadvantages:
- May not wear armor heavier than studded leather.
- Does not receive the usual druidic immunities and bonuses.
- Does not possess the ability to shapeshift.
- Cannot become proficient in ranged weaponry and single weapon.
- Lacks the ability to cast certain powerful druidic spells.
- Cannot dual class.

COMBAT TRANCE: From the early days, Avengers are trained to enter a trance-like state of focus.
This skill, similar in spirit to focused rage of a barbarian, is achieved purely through physical training
and conditioning. It allows the druid to become faster and stronger in melee combat.
When in a trance state, the druid gains +1 extra attack per round and +2 bonus
to attack and damage rolls for 1 turn.

CONJURE CLAN SPIRIT: Members of the Avenger sect practice a ritual that brings them into
a state of shared consciousness. As their grasp on each others' internal energy increases,
the clan members gain an ability to summon forth an ancestral spirit. The spectre will possess
abilities and powers of the source, but the strength depends directly on the summoner's experience.

PERFORM RITUAL: This ability allows the Avenger to perform a secret ritual that was perfected by members
of the order. It is the ultimate reason why the druid has to sacrifice his connection to the nature.
When the ritual is initiated, the Avenger attains a state of etherealness, as if stepping
outside the material plane. Entering such state allows the Avenger to move faster and avoid
constrictive areas. Due to his partial presense in the physical world, the druid becomes harder to hit
by the ordinary melee attacks. Any type of magic that constricts movement has no effect.
The duration of the ability equals one turn.

Abilities:
 - +5 Bonus to Armor Class
 - +1 Bonus to movement speed
 - Improved Haste
 - Immunity to Web, Improved Web and Vortex Web
 - Immunity to Slow, Hold and Stun effects

Monks are warriors who pursue perfection through contemplation as well as action.

STUNNING BLOW: All successful attacks within the next round force the victim to save vs. Spell
or be stunned. This special ability automatically modifies normal attacks; no targeting needs to be done.

survive in a fight against heavily armed bandits and spell-wielding sorcerers.

effectively doubling the amount of attacks they make. For 3 rounds + 1 round / level,
a monk's number of attacks per round doubles.

DIAMOND BODY: Experienced monk channels his inner energy to induce a restorative state
that heals the wounds and protects the self. For 5 rounds, the character receives 20% resistance
to physical damage, regenerates 6 Hit Points per round and acquires immunity
to Level Drain, Petrification and Imprisonment.

QUIVERING PALM: The next successful attack forces the opponent to save vs. Spell or die.
