Spirituel

The spirituel is unique among wilders in that they attribute their surging emotions to the divine, believing that they experience surges of divine ecstasy as they commune with their deity.

Class Features

A Spirituel does not gain the Elude Attack class feature.

Class Skills

A spirituel adds Theology to her list of class skills.

Psionic Nodes

At 1st level, she gains access to a Psionic Node of her choice and gains the benefit of that node’s granted ability.

She gains access to additional psionic nodes and their granted abilities at 8th and 16th level.

Manifesting

A spirituel’s options of powers known are greatly limited, even when compared to a standard wilder. A spirituel chooses her powers known from the list of powers offered by her psionic node.

Once she knows the power granted by her node of a certain level, she may freely learn other powers of that level from the wilder power list. She need not learn the highest level power available to her, if she wishes to learn other low-level powers.

For example, a 2nd-level spirituel with the Cognition node knows three psionic talents and two 1st-level powers. She is required to learn conceal thoughts as a 0-level talent and call to mind as a 1st-level power before she can select any other powers known. She also knows two other psionic talents and one other 1st-level power of her choice from the wilder power list. At 4th-level when she gains access to 2nd-level powers, she must either learn read thoughts as a 2nd-level power or any 1st-level wilder power of her choice.

At higher levels, when the spirituel has access to more than one node, she need only learn a single node power from any of her nodes before she is able to freely select other powers known of that power level.

Psionic Aura

By channeling her divine ecstasy, the spirituel can form an aura of psionic power that affects those around her. At 2nd level, a spirituel knows the psionic aura granted by her psionic node. When she gains access to additional psionic nodes, she also learns their related psionic auras. She can choose to manifest any psionic aura she knows as a swift action but may only have one spirituel aura active at a time.

A spirituel’s psionic auras can affect all creatures within 30 feet, including herself. Benefits only affect a spirituel’s allies, including herself, while penalties instead affect only her enemies. She may define any creature within her aura as an ally, enemy, or neither (making them unaffected by her auras) as she chooses.

An aura remains in effect until the spirituel dismisses it as a free action or she becomes unconscious or is slain.

The spirituel’s aura bonus begins at +1. This bonus increases by 1 every 4 levels thereafter (+2 at 6th level, +3 at 10th level, etc).
