The docs are looking good, Ken. Good ideas from everyone.
Working on a Faun PC race. In the meantime, here's a fun bit of magic object wickedness...
FEY HEART KNIFE (Level 3)
Critical: Will save +8 or staggered.
Power (Encounter): Free action. Activate when you hit with this weapon. The target makes a +8 Fortitude save or is staggered one round and acquires the Fey-Touched template the next.
Fey-Touched (template)
Based on Justin D. Gasal’s template from Tome of Troubles 13 November 2002
Sometimes a mortal becomes enchanted by the fey, for example through eating of faerie fruits, not returning to the mortal world within their allotted time, falling in love with a faerie, being deceived by a trickster, or being stabbed with a knife crafted from a faerie's heart. Such mortals may become enspelled by powerful fey, their body, mind, and soul twisted into a pleasing shape and willing slave.
A “Fey-Touched” creatures gains Spell Resistance 5 and the Slave to the Fey, Lost Past, Slow Aging, and Divine Weakness traits:
Divine Weakness: Cannot benefit from divine magic as long as the creature’s soul is owned by the fey, and divine magic overcomes their spell resistance.
Lost Past: The Fey-Touched has lost all memory of a past life before becoming a slave to the fey. If prompted by a visit from someone or something from their past, the Fey-Touched may attempt a Will save to recall one memory.
Slave to the Fey: Thoroughly enchanted by their fey master, the Fey-Touched is willing to do anything including risking their life.
Slow Aging: So as not to displeasure their master, the Fey-Touched has been warped to age 2-5 times slower than normal.
In addition, a Fey-Touched gains one of the following powers:
Alternate Form: (at will, standard action) The Fey-Touched can transform into one specific animal or magical beast within 2 size categories.
Faerie Glamer: (at will, minor action) Gain +10 Disguise
Faerie Messenger: (at will, standard action) The master of the Fey-Touched can imbue them with an arcane or fey power to deliver as a message. Alternately, the Fey-Touched may be a “fey maker”, allowing them to bestow the Fey-Touched template on others through a specific voluntary act (though they may be deceived into taking it).
Greencloak: (at will, minor action) The Fey-Touched can change its coloring and that of its equipment to blend in with natural surroundings, gaining +10 Stealth.
Indistinct Form: (at will, minor action) +4 AC and Reflex save. Also, the Fey-Touched’s face is hard to remember (DC 12 Intelligence check).
Finally, the Fey-Touched may receive one of these curses if it suits the nature of their master:
Dependency: Like a dryad, the Fey-Touched is bound to a particular focus like a grove, a river, or a crossroads. Venturing further than 300 yards from this focus causes the Fey-Touched to become ill and die within 24 hours.
Immaterial: The Fey-Touched is like a ghost to mortals – invisible and intangible.
Warped Form: The Fey-Touched was transformed to more closely resemble a particular beast, animal, or plant (suiting the nature of their fey master).
Water-Bound: The Fey-Touched can breathe underwater but can no longer breathe air and will suffocate if taken from the water. Gains +8 racial bonus to Swim checks.
