We have started using it and we love it madly.

A simple barbarian archetype for the one tha love werewolf. Some abilities are inspired by the Wolf Shifter – d20PFSRD

Werewolf (Base/Unchained Barbarian Archetype)

Modifies rage, greater rage, mighty rage; Replaces fast movement, rage power of 2nd level, damage reduction, danger/trap sense, rage power of 6th level, rage power of 14th level

Werewolves usually trace their powers from a distant lycanthrope ancestor, though some gain their powers through totem worship. These warriors tap into the power and skill of the wolf, an animal feared and worshiped by many barbaric tribes. Their connection with this animal comes with a deep respect and kinship at times, though some shifters may turn their back on this fundamental connection. Just like the wolf, these shifters often travel great distances, partly from a keen wanderlust, and partly from unwelcoming treatment by common folk.

Beast Within Affinity (Ex): At 1st level, a werewolf gains the following sets of natural attacks.

Mighty Jaws: The werewolf gains a bite attack when she is in her hybrid and wolf form. This is a primary attack that deals 1d6 points of damage plus the werewolf’s Strength modifier (for a Medium-sized werewolf). At 6th level, her bite attack gains the grab ability. At 11th level, her bite attack deals an additional 1d8 points of bleed damage on a successful hit. At 16th level, she gains a constrict attack that deals damage equal to her bite.

Savage Claws: The werewolf gains two claw attacks when she is in her hybrid form. These are primary attacks that deal 1d4 points of damage plus the werewolf’s Strength modifier (for a Medium-sized werewolf). At 6th level, she gains the rend special ability with her claw attacks that deals damage equal to her base claw damage plus 1-1/2 times its Strength bonus (if any). At 11th level, she gains the pounce ability but can only attack with her natural weapons when using it. At 16th level, she gains a rake attack with her claw attacks.
This ability replaces fast movement.

Hybrid Rage (Ex): When a werewolf enter rage change into a hybrid wolf-humanoid form. A werewolf start a rage as a full-round action instead of a free action. Using a full-round action to start a hybrid rage does not count towards the number of rounds a werewolf can rage in a day. The werewolf can also start a hybrid rage as an immediate action after taking damage from an attack. While in rage, the werewolf bonus to her Strength and Constitution is reduced by 2 (or her bonus on melee attack rolls, melee damage rolls, thrown weapon damage rolls is reduced by 1 for an Unchained Barbarian) but she gains darkvision 60 ft., low-light vision, scent and +2 natural armor. This reduction of bonus apply even when the bonus increase with Greater and Mighty Rage (for a +4 Str-Con/+2 with Greater and +6 Str-Con/+3 with Mighty) but Greater increase the natural armor to +4 and Mighty to +6. Hybrid rage is a polymorph effect but unlike normal polymorph, a werewolf’s gear does not meld into this form and it stack with abilities that change the size but only if generated by a rage power (like Abyssal Blood).
This ability alter rage, greater rage and mighty rage.

Lunar Bay (Ex): While in a hybrid rage or wolf transformation, the werewolf can howl fiendishly as a swift action, causing allies to feel encouraged and enemies to feel frightened. Allies within 30 feet receive a +2 morale bonus to Attack rolls, Saving Throws, and Skill checks, while enemies within 30 feet must make a Will save (DC 10 + half of the barbarian’s level + her Charisma modifier) or become shaken for a duration of 1 round + 1 round per four barbarian levels. These bonuses (for allies) and penalties (of shaken) increase by 1 per four barbarian levels. Lunar bay can be used once per hybrid rage. This replace the rage power of 2nd level.

Wolf Empathy (Ex): The werewolf can improve the attitude of wolves and wolf-like creatures like worg, winter wolf, wolfwere and werewolf. This ability acts as wild empathy (use the barbarian’s level as her druid level) except it affects only this creatures despite their intelligence score. The werewolf can only use this ability while using hybrid rage or wolf transformation.

Shifting Resistance (Ex): Starting at 2nd level, the werewolf gains DR/silver equal to half her barbarian level (minimum 1) when in hybrid rage or wolf transformation. The werewolf also gains immunity to lycanthropy. At 9th level the DR/silver becomes DR/silver and magic.
This ability replaces damage reduction.

Wolf Transformation (Ex): At 3rd level, a werewolf can take on wolf form. Wolf transformation works like hybrid rage except spending a round of rage grants the werewolf the ability to be in wolf transformation for one minute (a fraction of a minute rounds up to one round). In addition to the benefits of hybrid form, in wolf form the werewolf has a speed of 50 feet, gains the trip monster ability with her bite and can use Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills or any ability that requires patience or concentration without penalty. A werewolf does not lose her ability to speak while in wolf form. All items the werewolf carries meld into her body in this form. When in wolf transformation, the werewolf cannot use rage powers. The werewolf cannot use wolf transformation when wearing heavy armor or carrying a heavy load. A werewolf is fatigued after the transformation for a number of rounds equal to 2 times the number of minutes spent in the transformation.
This ability replaces danger or trap sense +1.

Lunar Link (Ex): At 5th level, the werewolf gains a +2 insight bonus on Perception, Stealth, and Survival checks while under direct moon light and during the entire day of the full moon, including the two days before and after the full moon (during this phase, the werewolf gains the bonus during night and day, regardless of being under moonlight). This bonus increases by +1 every four barbarian levels beyond 5th.
This replace the rage power of 6th level.

Fast Transformation (Ex): At 6th level, a werewolf can activate Hybrid Rage as a standard action instead of a full-round action. Transforming in this way spends a round of rage.
This ability replaces danger or trap sense +2.

Dire Wolf Shape (Ex): At 9th level, when transforming into the wolf transformation the werewolf can choose a dire wolf form instead. The werewolf must choose which wolf form she is becoming when starting a transformation. The dire wolf form causes the werewolf to increase her size by one size category. This size increase grants the werewolf a +4 size bonus to Strength, a –2 size penalty to Dexterity (to a minimum of 10), and a +2 size bonus to Constitution. The werewolf’s bite attack also increases by one size category.
This ability replaces danger or trap sense +3.

Improved Fast Transformation (Ex): At 14th level, a werewolf can activate Hybrid Rage as a move action. Transforming in this way spends a round of rage.
This replace the rage power of 14th level.

Werewolf’s Fury (Ex): At 15th level, a werewolf gains the ability to make several ferocious attacks with the same natural weapon. Instead of attacking with all her natural weapons, the werewolf can choose a single natural weapon and make a full attack with that natural weapon, gaining a second iterative attack at a –5 as if it was a manufactured weapon, gaining a third iterative attack at a –10, and gaining a fourth iterative attack at –15 (only when she reach BAB +16 she can make the fourth iterative attack). When she does so, all her other natural weapons count as secondary.
This ability replaces danger or trap sense +4.

Tireless Rage (Ex): Tireless rage apply even to wolf transformation.

Shifting Forms (Ex): At 18th level, when a werewolf is transformed, she can change between hybrid rage and wolf transformation as a swift action without ending the transformation.
This ability replaces danger or trap sense +5.

Oh this is cooooool. I love werewolves and their aesthetic, and always thought they got the naughty word end of the stick in pathfinder.

I honestly really like this class. I'm going to make a character implement it and see how it goes. I may make this a cursed class as well meaning someone might get infected with lycanthrope and I may force them to take this class instead of the regular template.

We have made a similar concept in the last campain. When a character made a pact for be possessed by a Spectre for power, instead of gaining the Possessed corruption (Possessed – d20PFSRD ), he gains the Ghost companion of the Haunted One class (3pp/revisited class similar to the spiritualist, but instead of the Phantom you gain an incorporeal undead like Spectre or ghost that scale in a similar way of an animal companion) using his HD as his Haunted One level but at the next level up he must pick the first level in that cclas (still using his total level for the companion). I will post tomorrow the Haunted One.

Natural Werewolf Race (12 RP)

The original version before the changes can be found here (Bite Me! Werewolves - Misfit Studios | Pathfinder | DriveThruRPG.com)
Werewolf Racial Traits
+2 Dexterity, +2 Charisma, –2 Intelligence: Werewolves are charismatic and agile, two traits necessary
when hunting as part of a pack. However, they find solo intellectual pursuits daunting, preferring the company of others. (0 RP)
Two Bloods: Werewolves are humanoids with the shapechanger subtype, and one other humanoid
(e.g., elf, orc, or human) subtype chosen by the player, and referred to as their Base Race. They count as that humanoid type for purposes of prerequisites. Werewolves gain no abilities from this second type beyond physical appearance, although they remain vulnerable to effects and abilities that specifically target it. (1 RP)
Medium Size: Werewolves are Medium creatures and receive no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Normal Speed: Werewolves have a base speed of 30 feet. (0 RP)
Low-Light Vision: Werewolves see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light. (1 RP)
Lycanthropic Empathy: In any form, werewolves can communicate and empathize with wolves and oth-
er animals related to their animal form (but not hell-hounds or other outsiders or magical creatures). They can use Diplomacy to alter such an animal’s attitude, and when so doing gain a +4 racial bonus on the check. (1 RP)
Beast Senses: Werewolves receive a +2 racial bonus to Perception. (2 RP)
Creatures of the Wild: Werewolves receive a +2 racial bonus to Survival. (2 RP)
Beast Form (Su): All natural werewolves may shift to a single beast form, that of their Base Animal, the wolf. The statistics, natural attacks, size, and abilities of the beast form are listed below, and advance at the listed level and in the listed manner. When transformed, use the ability scores of the Base Character or the Base Animal, whichever are greater. Hit points and saving throws remain those of the Base Character as potentially modified by the Beast Form’s ability scores, with any extra hit points granted by the change in forms being treated as temporary hit points. Equipment melds with the shift in form. The shift is a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, but a natural werewolf can shift forms as a move-equivalent action that doesn’t provoke attacks of opportunity by making a DC 15 Constitution check. A natural werewolf may remain transformed for a number of hours per day equal to its Constitution Modifier + character level (minimum 1). This duration does not need to be consecutive, but must be spent in 1-hour increments. Natural werewolves do not suffer from a compulsion to transform into wolf form when the full moon is visible. A slain werewolf reverts to its humanoid form, although it remains dead. Except where detailed here, this effect functions as the Change Shape ability listed in the basic lycanthrope template in the Bestiary. (6 RP)
Lycanthropic Resilience: In beast, hybrid form, or primal form, a werewolf gains DR 2/silver, which increases by 2 points every odd level, to a maximum of DR 10/silver at 9th level. (5 RP)
Vulnerability: Werewolves are especially vulnerable to the poison wolfsbane, and suffer a –2 penalty on their saves against it, and a –1 against spells that utilize it as an additional material component. (-2 RP)
Vulnerability: Werewolves are especially vulnerable to silver. They never apply DR to silver attacks, no matter the source of the DR, and take an additional 1d6 points of damage from any damage from a silver source. (-4 RP)
Languages: Werewolves speak Common, and the racial or regional language of their Base Race.
Werewolves with high Intelligence scores can choose any languages they want (except secret languages, such as Druidic). (0 RP)

Beast Form Modifications
Size Medium; Speed 50 ft.; AC +2 natural armor; Attack bite (1d6 plus trip); Ability Scores Str 13, Dex
15, Con 15, Int 2, Wis 12, Cha 6; Special Qualities low-light vision, scent

7th-Level Advancement
Size Large; AC +2 natural armor; Attack bite (1d8); Ability Scores Str +8, Dex –2, Con +4

Hybrid Form [General, Lycanthrope]
Prerequisites: Lycanthrope, character level 6th or higher.
Benefit: When changing forms using your Beast Form ability, you may now choose to transform into your base animal, or into that of a hybrid form of the same size as your humanoid form that blends your beast form with your base race. When transformed into hybrid form, you do not gain the normal benefits of transforming with your Beast Form racial ability. Instead, you gain the following benefits: you gain a racial bonus to Strength and Constitution of +2 that stacks with any existing racial bonuses, you gain the additional sensory qualities of your Beast Form (if any), the abilities of the Beast Form of your level (if any).
You gain a primary bite natural attack (deals piercing and slashing damage) with every non-vestigial head and two primary claw natural attacks (deal slashing damage) (if the Beast Form is a herbivorous creature instead you gain two slam attacks which deals bludgeoning damage) plus any natural attack the animal form possess, all of which deal 1d6 points of damage (for medium-sized Lycanthrope). Because your hands are clumsy and illequipped to wield weapons while in this form, you suffer a -2 penalty to attack rolls made
with manufactured weapons, and to the use of skills, such as Sleight of Hand and Disable Device, that rely on fine manipulation. If you do wield a manufactured weapon, any natural attacks you make are treated as secondary attacks, instead. While in hybrid form, you suffer a -4 to all Charisma-based skills and rolls except for Intimidate with creatures without the shapechanger subtype or the Lycanthropic Empathy Diplomacy check. This is a polymorph effect. Unlike other polymorph effects, your gear does not meld into your body with this transformation, but instead remains equipped and functions normally.

Primal Form [General, Lycanthrope]
Prerequisites: Lycanthrope, character level 8th or higher.
Benefit: When changing forms using your Beast Form racial ability, you may now choose to transform
into a normal creature, or into a more powerful, primitive version of your base animal. When transforming into your primal form, you gain all of the normal benefits and drawbacks of your beast form plus the follow-
ing benefits: you gain a +4 racial bonus to Strength and Constitution that stacks with existing racial bonuses; your natural armor bonus increases by +6; your base land speed increases by +10 feet; The damage of your primary attack in primal form increases one die step along the following progression: 1d2, 1d3, 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 2d6, 2d8. This is a polymorph effect.

Haunted One

Original version here (Haunted One)
Where the veil between life and afterlife is thin, souls of the deceased leak through. These souls are often tied to the place or cause of their death, but on occasion a ghost will stray from their posts to torment the living. Some poor souls find that they attract an unusually high amount of attention from these wandering spirits. While most of these poor tormented sods end up in an early grave, a hardy few soldier on. Reaching a degree of peace with their tormentor, these haunted ones become conduits for the rage of the afterlife, channeling the power of their ghostly assailants against those that would stand in their way.

Hit Dice: D6.

Role: A haunted one is able to quickly offer damage over a large area using the power of his TK storm ability, and can use his ghastly companion to harass and damage his enemies. Eventually, the haunted one can use his powers to shape the battlefield, and control his enemies through possession. Charisma is important to a haunted one, as it determines the strength of their spells and abilities, and the size of their geist pool. Constitution keeps him from joining his ghastly companion in the afterlife, and extra Dexterity can help the haunted one survive without heavy armor.

Alignment: Any.

While most haunted one’s are sullen and resentful because of their situation, it isn’t unheard of for a particularly noble haunted one to wield his spectral ally as a weapon against evil. On the other hand, a wicked haunted one has no qualms unleashing the full chaotic might of his ghostly ally on the unsuspecting world.

Starting Wealth: 5d6 × 10 gp (average 175 gp.). In addition, each character begins play with an outfit worth 10 gp or less.

Class Skills
The haunted one’s class skills are Acrobatics (Dex), Bluff (Cha), Craft (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Fly (Dex), Heal (Wis), Intimidate (Cha), Knowledge (all) (Int), Linguistics (Int), Perception (Wis), Profession (Wis), Sense Motive (Wis), Spellcraft (Int), Survival (Wis), and Use Magic Device (Cha).

Skill Ranks per Level: 4 + Int modifier.

Class Features

The following are the class features of the haunted one.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency

The haunted one is proficient in simple weapons, but not with any type of armor or shield.

Spellcasting
A haunted one casts psychic spells drawn from the spiritualist spell list. He can cast any spell he knows without preparing it ahead of time, assuming he has not yet used up his allotment of spells per day for the spell’s level. To learn or cast a spell, a haunted one must have a Charisma score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a haunted one’s spell equals 10 + the spell level + the haunted one’s Charisma modifier.

A haunted one can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. His base daily spell allotment is given on Table: Haunted One Spell per Day. In addition, he receives bonus spells per day if he has a high Charisma score.

A haunted one’s selection of spells is limited. A haunted one begins play knowing four 0-level spells and two 1st-level spells of the haunted one’s choice. At each new spiritualist level, he learns one or more new spells as indicated on Table: Haunted One Spells Known. Unlike his number of spells per day, the number of spells a haunted one knows does not affect his Charisma score. The numbers on Table: Haunted One Spells Known are fixed.

Upon reaching 5th level, and at every third haunted one level thereafter (8th, 11th, and so on), a haunted one can learn a single new spell in place of one he already knows.

In effect, the haunted one loses the old spell in exchange for the new one. The new spell’s level must be the same as that of the spell being exchanged, and it must be at least 1 level lower than the highest-level haunted one spell he can cast. A haunted one can swap out only a single spell at any given level and must choose whether or not to swap the spell at the same time that he gains new spells known for the level.

Knacks: A haunted one learns a number of knacks, or 0-level psychic spells, as noted on Table: Haunted One Spells Known under Spells Known. These spells are cast like any other spell, but they can be cast any number of times per day. Knacks prepared using another spell slot, because of metamagic feats applied to them, for example, consume spell slots as normal.

Geist Pool (Su)
Even at 1st level, the haunted one gains limited control over the ghost who haunts him and has learned to focus the spirit’s attention. He gains a pool of geist points equal to his class level + his Charisma modifier, which he can use to activate his class features (such as TK storm). The pool refills after 8 hours of rest, or it can be refilled by allowing the ghastly companion to possess the haunted one (see below).

Ghastly Companion (Su)
At 1st level, the haunted one has determined the exact nature of his unwelcome spectral ‘friend’. The haunted one chooses a particular type of ghost to be the one that haunts his soul. Once the nature of the ghastly companion has been chosen it cannot be changed, unless the ghastly companion is somehow forcibly removed from the haunted one (such as by an exorcism). In such an event, the haunted one attracts the attention of a new ghastly companion after 30 days or when he gains a new level in haunted one, whichever comes first. Different ghosts have different abilities, but all ghosts advance in power in a similar fashion (see Table: Ghastly Companion Advancement).

The ghastly companion forms a link with the haunted one, who forever after can either harbor the creature within his consciousness or manifest it as an incorporeal entity. A ghastly companion has the same alignment as the haunted one, and it can speak all the languages its “friend” can. A haunted one can harbor his ghastly companion in his consciousness (see the shared consciousness class feature), or fully manifest it. A fully manifested ghastly companion is treated as a summoned creature from the Negative Energy Plane.

A haunted one can fully manifest his ghastly companion through a ritual that takes 1 minute to perform. When the ghastly companion is fully manifested, the haunted one can change the form of the ghastly companion’s manifestation (either from ectoplasmic to incorporeal or vice versa if he has the ectoplasmic form manifestation) as a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity. If he has the ectoplasmic form manifestation, the haunted one can chose the form of the ghastly companion’s manifestation. When the ghastly companion manifests, its hit points are unchanged from the last time it manifested, unless the ghastly companion was slain and returned to the Negative Energy Plane; in this case, the ghastly companion manifests with half its maximum number of hit points.

The ghastly companion does not heal naturally, and can be healed only with magic. The ghastly companion stays fully manifested until it is either returned to the haunted one’s consciousness (a standard action) or banished to the Negative Energy Plane. If the ghastly companion is banished to the Negative Energy Plane, it can’t return to the haunted one’s consciousness or manifest again for 24 hours.

While fully manifested, a ghastly companion can’t be returned to the Negative Energy Plane by means of dispel magic, but spells such as dismissal and banishment work normally. Whenever the haunted one is unconscious or asleep, the ghastly companion immediately returns to the haunted one’s consciousness. If the haunted one dies, the ghastly companion is returned to the Negative Energy Plane after finishing the rounds of rampage (see mortal anchor), and can’t return to the haunted one’s consciousness until 24 hours after the haunted one is brought back to life.

A ghastly companion can’t be dismissed or banished (by a spell or any other similar effect) while it resides in the haunted one’s consciousness, as the ghastly companion is protected from such effects by the power of the haunted one’s psyche.

Ghastly companions are self-involved, egocentrics, even jealous, creatures that do not play well with other summoned companions.

A ghastly companion refuses to manifest in the presence of an eidolon or other creatures summoned by the ghastly companion’s master. Furthermore, if a ghastly companion is manifested when such a creature is summoned, it immediately retreats into its haunted one’s consciousness, and will not manifest again until the summoned is dismissed.

The haunted one can, as a swift action that doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity, relinquish control of his body to his ghastly companion for a number of rounds equal to his Charisma modifier (minimum 1). The ghastly companion must be within 10 feet of the haunted one or the possession attempt fails. As long as the ghastly companion is in control, the haunted one cannot directly control his actions. Instead, the player maybe suggest which actions he wishes to take, and the GM decides if the ghost follows through with the suggestion. A haunted one that gets along with this ghastly companion will find his suggestions followed, while one that antagonizes his companion will likely be ignored. While in control, the ghastly companion has access to all of it’s normal abilities in addition to the abilities of the haunted one. For the purpose of abilities like TK storm, the ghastly companion is considered to be in the same square as the haunted one. The haunted one can attempt to end this effect early with a Will save (DC 15 + ½ haunted one level). If a spell would prevent the haunted one from being possessed, such as protection from evil, the effect ends immediately. In exchange for giving up control, the haunted one gains 1 geist point each round the ghastly companion possesses him. The haunted one cannot gain more points per day in this fashion than his level + his Charisma modifier (minimum 1 point). In addition, due to its tie to its haunted one, a ghastly companion is immune to command, control and turn attempts.

Shared Consciousness (Su)
At 1st level, while a ghastly companion is confined in a haunted one’s consciousness (but not while it’s fully manifested or banished to the Negative Energy Plane), it grants the haunted one a +4 bonus on saving throws against all mind-affecting effects; at 12th level, this bonus increases to +8.

Lastly, once per day, when the haunted one fails a saving throw against a mind-affecting effect, as an immediate action he can shunt that effect into the ghastly companion’s section of his consciousness instead. When he does so, he is not affected by the mind-affecting effect, but for the normal duration of that effect, the haunted one loses the bonuses on saving throws against mind-affecting effects granted by his ghastly companion, and can’t use this ability to shunt a mind-affecting effect into the ghastly companion’s consciousness or manifest his ghastly companion in any way. When a mind-affecting effect is shunted into the ghastly companion’s consciousness, spells such as dispel magic and break enchantment can be cast on the haunted one to end the effect’s duration as if the haunted one were affected by the mind-affecting effect.

TK Storm (Sp)
At 1st level, the haunted one can drive his ghastly companion into a mad frenzy, creating a whirling tornado of deadly debris. As a standard action that costs 1 geist point, the haunted one can cast telekinesis as a spell-like ability, using his haunted one level as his caster level. The haunted one must select the ‘violent thrust’ option, and can only target a creature within 30 feet of the haunted one or his ghastly companion. The haunted one can manipulate triple the amount of weight that can normally be manipulated with telekinesis and does not have a maximum limit at 15th level (this effective allow a haunted one to manipulate 75 pound of object per level with telekinesis). The haunted one must spend a geist point each turn to sustain a TK storm. Make an attack roll for each item or creature thrown, using the haunted one’s level + his Charisma modifier. Weapons deal their normal damage, with no Strength bonus, but the haunted one may dedicate a number of objects thrown to a single attack roll, up to a maximum of his Charisma modifier, and roll all their damage together with an attack from a single weapon in the group. Other objects deal damage based on their size and weight (see Chapter 9: Spells in the Core Rulebook for more details). If the haunted one attempts to pick up a creature is a TK storm, the DC to resist is 10 + ½ haunted on level + Charisma modifier.

Sidebar: Strange and magical projectiles
In the heat of battle, it is possible that abnormal debris will become picked up by a TK storm. Objects such as alchemist’s fire and holy water affect their targets as though they were thrown normally. If the TK storm picks up a magical weapon, it deals damage as a magical weapon. A +5 flaming greataxe is still a magical weapon, even if nobody is technically wielding it.

Sidebar: What’s TK?
TK is a commonly accepted abbreviation of telekinetic or telekinesis.

Bonded Senses (Su)
At 2nd level, as a standard action, a haunted one can share the senses of his manifested ghastly companion, hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting, and feeling everything his ghastly companion does. He can use this ability a number of minutes per day equal to his haunted one level, but those minutes do not need to be consecutive. There is no maximum range for this effect, but the ghastly companion and the haunted one must be on the same plane. The haunted one can end this effect as a free action. This ability is used in 1-minute increment.

Ghost Trick
As he grows in power, the haunted one gains a rapport with his ghastly companion and begins to learn how to turn his unfortunate circumstance into a battlefield advantage. At 2nd level and every even-numbered level after that, the haunted one selects a ghost trick. A ghost trick can only be taken once unless otherwise noted. A haunted one can select from the following ghost tricks:

Bonded Life (Su): As a swift action, the haunted one can spend 1 geist point to invert his affinity towards life and death. This causes negative energy to heal him and positive energy to deal damage to him, as though he were an undead creature. Alternatively, the haunted one can invert the affinity of his ghastly companion so that it reacts to positive and negative energy as a living creature instead of an undead. These abilities may be activated separately or at the same time, and last until the haunted one spends another swift action to end the effect. Each round this effect is active, the haunted one loses 1 geist point. The haunted one must be at least 8th level to take this ghost trick.

Ectoplasmic Form (Su): The haunted one’s ghastly companion can take a physical form. In ectoplasmic form, the ghastly companion lose the incorporeal subtype, incorporeal traits, fly speed and the profane bonus to the armor class. It gains a natural armor bonus equal to the former deflection bonus and an armor bonus equal to the former profane bonus to armor class. It gains a Strength bonus equal to its Dexterity bonus and a land speed of 30 ft. The haunted one must have the reliquary gift ghost trick to take this ghost trick.

Fear the Grave (Su): The haunted one’s ghastly companion gains the frightful presence monster ability with a range of 30 feet. Creatures within 30 feet of the ghastly companion must make a Will save (DC 10 + ½ haunted one level + haunted one’s Charisma modifier) or become frightened for 3d6 rounds. This only affects creatures with less Hit Dice than the haunted one and does not affect the haunted one. The haunted one must be 14th level to select this ghost trick.

Freaky Flier (Su): While the ghastly companion is controlling the haunted one (see the ghastly companion ability for details), the haunted one has a fly speed equal to his ghastly companion’s fly speed, with poor maneuverability. The haunted one must be at least 12th level to select this ghost trick.

Geistblade (Su): As long as the ghastly companion is controlling the haunted one (see the ghastly companion ability for details), any weapon wielded by the haunted one gains a supernatural version of the throwing and returning magic weapon abilities. A haunted one must have the phantom knight ghost trick and be at least 12th level to take this ghost trick.

Hearing Heartbeats (Su): The haunted one’s ghastly companion gains the lifesense universal monster ability with a 60 foot range, allowing the ghastly companion to sense living creatures as though it had blindsight. While confined in the haunted one’s consciousness (but not while it’s fully manifested or banished to the Negative Energy Plane), it grants the haunted one this lifesense. The haunted one must be at least 8th level to select this ghost trick.

Phantom Friend (Su): The haunted one becomes immune to the special attacks and special abilities of his ghastly companion. He must still save against the effects of creature similar to his ghastly companion, and against the effects of other ghastly companions.

Phantom Knight (Ex): The haunted one’s ghastly companion becomes proficient with martial weapons and shields (but not tower shields), using the ghastly companion's Dexterity modifier in place of its Strength. The item is still a corporeal item. The haunted one must have the reliquary gift ghost trick to take this ghost trick.

Poltergeist’s Mischief (Su): Choose a combat maneuver gained with poltergeist’s trickery. The haunted one can spend 1 geist point as a swift action to have his ghastly companion perform that combat maneuver against any target within 30 feet. The haunted one must have taken the poltergeist’s trickery ghost trick in order to take this ghost trick.

Poltergeist’s Trickery: The haunted one and his ghastly companion both gain one of the following feats, even if they don’t meet the prerequisites: Improved Trip, Improved Bull Rush, Improved Disarm, Improved Steal, Improved Sunder. The haunted one can take this ghost trick more than once; each time he chooses a new feat.

Reliquary Gift (Su): The ghastly companion can interact with items and surroundings as if it had perpetually equipped an amulet of grasping souls (without having occupied the neck slot).

Specter’s Shield (Su): As long as the ghastly companion is controlling the haunted one (see the ghastly companion ability for details) or confined inside the haunted one consciousness, the haunted one adds his Charisma modifier to his AC as a deflection bonus. The haunted one must be at least 8th level to select this ghost trick.

TK Tornado (Su): TK storm can now target creatures within 60 feet of the haunted one or ghastly companion.

Unlife to the Lifeless (Sp): The haunted one can spend a use of ghastly possession to drive his ghastly companion into an object, creating the effects of animate objects, using his haunted one level as his caster level. Only a single object can be animated in this fashion. The haunted one must be 12th level and have the ghastly possession ability to take this ghost trick.

Whispered Secrets (Ex): Choose one Knowledge skill. The haunted one can use his ghastly companion’s HD instead of his normal ranks in the chosen Knowledge skill. This ghost trick can be taken more than once; each time the haunted one chooses a new Knowledge skill.

Ghost Sight (Su)
Dealing with a phantom all the time has trained the haunted one to spot the tell-tale signs of spectral entities. A 3rd level haunted one gains the benefits of a constant detect undead, but it only functions on undead creatures with the incorporeal subtype. A haunted one can, as a move action, concentrate on a single individual within 60 feet and determine if it is undead, learning the strength of its aura as if having studied it for 3 rounds. While focusing on one individual or object, the haunted one does not detect undead in any other individual within range.

Soul Guard (Su)
Constant exposure to the taint of undeath has given the haunted one a growing resilience to the powers of the undead. At 3rd level, the haunted one gains a +1 competence bonus on all saves against spells and effects from undead creatures. This bonus increases by an additional +1 for every 3 levels after 3rd, to a maximum of +5 at 18th level.
At 11th level, the haunted one becomes immune to possession effects (such as the spell magic jar and possession or a ghost’s malevolence special ability) not originating from his own class abilities while his ghastly companion is confined in his consciousness.

Seance (Sp)
Being so close to the afterlife allows the haunted one to reach out and speak with the departed. At 4th level, the haunted one can cast speak with dead as a spell-like ability using his haunted one level as his caster level. The haunted one can use seance 3 times per day.

Dead Whispers (Ex)
Speaking with the dead is easy; understanding them is another matter altogether. At 5th level, the haunted one automatically understands any language spoken by an undead creature or a spirit (like the spells call spirit, speak with dead, and speak with soul) and they understand him in turn. This acts like a mundane tongues spell, but only works when the haunted one is interacting to an undead creature or a spirit.

Strike the Soul (Su)
As the unnatural energies of the afterlife seep into the haunted one’s being, they allow him to become ghostlike for a short moment, which is more than enough to drive a dagger into someone’s heart. At 5th level, the haunted one can spend 2 geist points to make a single melee attack as an incorporeal touch attack as a standard action. If he hits with the attack, he deals damage as normal, but the damage type is converted to negative energy. This ability has no effect on creatures that expressly lack a soul (normal constructs, unintelligent undead); should the haunted one attempt to attack such a creature with strike the soul, the attack passes harmlessly through the creature and is wasted. This negative energy damage cannot heal undead creatures or creatures with negative energy affinity.

Ghastly Recall (Su)
At 6th level, as either a swift or an immediate action, a haunted one can call his manifested ghastly companion to his side or back into his consciousness.
This ability functions as dimension door, using the haunted one’s class level as the caster level. When the haunted one calls the ghastly companion in this way, the ghastly companion appears adjacent to the haunted one (or as close as possible, if all adjacent spaces are occupied).
The haunted one can use this ability once per day at 6th level, plus one additional time per day for every 4 haunted one levels he possesses beyond 6th.

TK Barrier (Su)
As he grows more comfortable harnessing the power of his ghostly companion, the haunted one learns to turn the ghost’s offensive powers towards his own defense. At 6th level, the haunted one can spend 1 geist point as a move action to create a floating barrier of debris within 30 feet of his position. The haunted one can create a 5 x 5 ft. plane of debris for every 2 haunted one levels. The squares can be in any orientation, but the barrier must be continuous. These barriers provide partial cover for all creatures, except against the haunted one and his ghastly companion who take no penalty for firing through their own TK barrier. A creature can attempt a Strength check to burst through the barrier (DC 10 + haunted one’s Charisma modifier). In addition, incorporeal creatures treat these barriers as solid objects. The haunted one must spend 1 geist point as a swift action each turn to maintain a TK barrier. The haunted one cannot use his TK storm ability while he is maintaining a TK barrier, and likewise he cannot create a TK barrier in the same turn he has attacked with his TK storm.

Spirit Blade (Su)
The haunted one has learned how to best combat the angry ghosts of the world and can turn cold steel into a potent weapon able to harm the incorporeal. At 7th level, while he has at least 1 geist point remaining, any weapon wielded by the haunted one or his ghastly companion is treated as having the ghost touch magic weapon ability. In addition, all projectiles thrown using TK storm gains the ghost touch magic weapon ability.

Ghastly Possession (Su)
The haunted one can attempt to drive his ghastly companion into another creature, allowing his phantom friend to control the subject like a puppet. At 8th level, the haunted one can command his manifested ghastly companion to attempt to possess a target for a number of rounds equal to the haunted one’s Charisma modifier (minimum 3 rounds). A Will save (DC 10 + ½ haunted one level + Charisma modifier) negates the effect. This acts like the spell magic jar, except that there is no receptacle involved; the soul of the target is temporarily subdued for the duration of the effect. The haunted one must maintain line of sight with the possessed target or the effect ends. The haunted one cannot exert direct control over the possessed subject; he can provide suggestions and requests, and the GM decides if the ghastly companion follows or ignores the haunted one. See the ghastly companion unreliable and reliable abilities for details. Any effects that originate from the ghastly companion continue to function normally. The ghastly companion can only possess a single creature at a time. Should the haunted one have his ghastly companion possess a new creature, the current victim is freed.
At 8th level, the haunted one can use ghastly possession once per day. At 12th level, and every 4 levels after that, the haunted one can use ghastly possession an additional time per day, up to 4 times a day at level 20.

One of Us (Su)
Having a ghost bonded to your soul changes a person, and the haunted one slowly begins to resemble death warmed over. At 9th level, mindless undead perceive the haunted one as an undead creature and do not attack the haunted one or his ghastly companion unless the haunted one or his ghastly companion attacks them first or if the mindless undead are commanded by their controller to attack the haunted one. Also, the haunted one improves the initial attitude of all intelligent undead creatures who can see him by 1 step (hostile to unfriendly, unfriendly to indifferent, and so on). A Will save (DC 10 + ½ haunted one’s level + Charisma modifier) negates this improved of attitude.

Fused Consciousness (Su)
At 10th level, a haunted one always gains the benefits of bonded senses when his ghastly companion is manifested. He also gains the bonus to mind-affecting spells, even when his ghastly companion is manifested. Lastly, he can shunt the effect of a mind-affecting effect into the consciousness of his ghastly companion as the shared consciousness ability even when the ghastly companion is manifested, but doing so causes the ghastly companion to immediately retreat back into the haunted one’s consciousness.

Ghastly Power (Su)
The ghastly companion has manifested enough power to act on its own, and now nothing is safe. At 13th level, the ghastly companion, when manifested, can activate the haunted one’s TK storm ability as a full-round action. The haunted one loses 1 geist point each time his ghastly companion activates his TK storm but can otherwise spend his turn however he wishes. The TK storm ability can only be used once per round.

Spiritual Bond (Su)
At 14th level, a haunted one’s life force becomes intrinsically linked with the ghastly companion’s spiritual essence. As long as the ghastly companion has 1 or more hit points, when the haunted one takes damage that would reduce him to fewer than 0 hit points, those points of damage are transferred to the ghastly companion instead. This transfer stops after the ghastly companion takes all the points of damage or the ghastly companion is reduced to 0 hit points. In the latter case, points of damage dealt in excess of this limit are dealt to the haunted one. This ability affects only effects that deal hit point damage.

Sudden Barrier (Su)
Flying debris can prove just as much a shield as a weapon in the hands of the haunted one. At 15th level, the haunted can spend 2 geist points as an immediate action to create a single 5 x 5 ft. TK barrier. The haunted one can use sudden barrier even if he has used TK storm this turn.

Dead Soul (Su)
Being so close to the land of the dead renders the haunted one increasingly dead inside, providing resilience against the necromantic energies. At 17th level, the haunted one appearance becomes pale and gaunt, and gains spell resistance equal to 15 + his haunted one level against all non-harmless necromancy spells.

Lost Soul (Ex)
The undead see no difference between the haunted one and the rest of the unliving. At 19th level, intelligent undead creatures with the incorporeal subtype have their starting attitude towards the haunted one improved by an additional step. A Will save (DC 10 + ½ haunted one’s level + Charisma modifier) negates this effect.

Path of the Grave (Su)
At 20th level, the haunted one has become so infused with ghostly power that he is able to pierce the veil holding life from afterlife, and walk with the spirits. The haunted one gains the ability to become incorporeal at will as a swift action. The haunted one can use this ability for up to 1 minute per day per haunted one level. The haunted one can dismisses the effect as a free action. This duration need not be continuous, but it must be spent in 1-minute increments.

Class Level
This is the haunted one’s class level.

HD
This is the total number of 8-sided (d8) Hit Dice the ghastly companion possesses, each of which is modified by the ghastly companion’s Charisma, as normal.

BAB
This is the ghastly companion’s base attack bonus. A ghastly companion’s base attack bonus is equal to ¾ its Hit Dice.
Ghastly companion s do not gain additional attacks using their natural weapons at higher base attack bonuses.

Skills
A ghastly companion can assign skill ranks to any skills, but it must possess the appropriate appendage to use some skills.
Ghastly companions gains a number of skill ranks equal to 4 + its Intelligence modifier per Hit Die. A ghastly companion can’t have more ranks in a skill than it has Hit Dice.
Ghastly companions class skills are Climb, Disguise, Fly, Intimidate, Knowledge (arcane), Knowledge (religion), Perception, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, and Stealth.

Feats
This is the total number of feats possessed by a ghastly companion. A ghastly companion can select any feat it qualifies for, but it must possess the appropriate appendage in order to use some feats.

Profane Bonus
The number noted here is the profane bonus to armor class when it manifests as an incorporeal creature. An incorporeal ghastly companion can’t wear armor of any kind, as the armor interferes with the haunted one’s connection with the ghastly companion; a ghastly companion may seem to be wearing armor, but this appearance is just an illusory part of its appearance.
The ghastly companion is an undead with the incorporeal subtype and has the following traits.

Undead Traits

No Constitution score. Undead use their Charisma score in place of their Constitution score when calculating hit points, Fortitude saves, and any special ability that relies on Constitution (such as when calculating a breath weapon’s DC).
Darkvision 60 feet.
Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects, patterns, and phantasms).
Immunity to death effects, disease, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, and stunning.
Not subject to nonlethal damage, ability drain, or energy drain. Immune to damage to its physical ability scores (Constitution, Dexterity, and Strength), as well as to exhaustion and fatigue effects.
Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score, although it can be healed. Negative energy (such as an inflict spell) can heal undead creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score.
Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects or is harmless).
Not at risk of death from massive damage, but is immediately destroyed when reduced to 0 hit points.
Not affected by raise dead and reincarnate spells or abilities. Resurrection and true resurrection can affect undead creatures. These spells turn undead creatures back into the living creatures they were before becoming undead.
Proficient with its natural weapons, all simple weapons, and any weapons mentioned in its entry.
Proficient with whatever type of armor (light, medium, or heavy) it is described as wearing, as well as all lighter types. Undead not indicated as wearing armor are not proficient with armor. Undead are proficient with shields if they are proficient with any form of armor.
Undead do not breathe, eat, or sleep.

Incorporeal Traits
An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities. It is immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Even when hit by spells or magic weapons, it takes only half damage from a corporeal source (except for channel energy). Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead. Corporeal spells and effects that do not cause damage only have a 50% chance of affecting an incorporeal creature. Force spells and effects, such as from a magic missile, affect an incorporeal creature normally.
An incorporeal creature has no natural armor bonus but has a deflection bonus equal to its Charisma bonus (always at least +1, even if the creature’s Charisma score does not normally provide a bonus).
An incorporeal creature can enter or pass through solid objects, but must remain adjacent to the object’s exterior, and so cannot pass entirely through an object whose space is larger than its own. It can sense the presence of creatures or objects within a square adjacent to its current location, but enemies have total concealment (50% miss chance) from an incorporeal creature that is inside an object. In order to see beyond the object it is in and attack normally, the incorporeal creature must emerge. An incorporeal creature inside an object has total cover, but when it attacks a creature outside the object it only has cover, so a creature outside with a readied action could strike at it as it attacks. An incorporeal creature cannot pass through a force effect.
An incorporeal creature’s attacks pass through (ignore) natural armor, armor, and shields, although deflection bonuses and force effects (such as mage armor) work normally against it. Incorporeal creatures pass through and operate in water as easily as they do in air. Incorporeal creatures cannot fall or take falling damage. Incorporeal creatures cannot make trip or grapple attacks, nor can they be tripped or grappled. In fact, they cannot take any physical action that would move or manipulate an opponent or its equipment, nor are they subject to such actions. Incorporeal creatures have no weight and do not set off traps that are triggered by weight.
An incorporeal creature moves silently and cannot be heard with Perception checks if it doesn’t wish to be. It has no Strength score, so its Dexterity modifier applies to its melee attacks, ranged attacks, and CMB. Nonvisual senses, such as scent and blindsight, are either ineffective or only partly effective with regard to incorporeal creatures. Incorporeal creatures have an innate sense of direction and can move at full speed even when they cannot see.

Special
This column includes a number of abilities gained by all ghastly companions as they increase in power. Each of these bonuses is described below.

Deliver Touch Spells (Su)
The ghastly companion can deliver touch spells for the haunted one when fully manifested in incorporeal or ectoplasmic form. The haunted one and the ghastly companion need not be in contact to accomplish this, but the ghastly companion must be within 30 feet and the haunted one must be able to see the ghastly companion. If the haunted one is 12th level or higher, the ghastly companion can deliver touch spells within 50 feet of the haunted one. The haunted one can cast the spell, and then the ghastly companion can deliver the touch as an immediate action. If the touch spell deals damage, the ghastly companion must make the attack roll. The ghastly companion can’t hold the charge of a touch spell cast by the haunted using this ability. If the spell is delivered to the ghastly companion, it must touch a target or the spell is lost. If the spell allows you to touch up to six willing targets, the ghastly companion can accomplish this with an immediate action, but all of the willing targets must be within the ghastly companion’s melee reach at the time.

Link (Su)
A haunted one and his ghastly companion share a mental link that allows for communication across distances (as long as they are on the same plane). This communication is a free action that can be performed even when it isn’t the haunted one’s turn, but the haunted one and the ghastly companion must both be conscious to communicate in this way. This allows the haunted one to give orders to his ghastly companion at any time. Magic items interfere with a haunted one’s connection to his ghastly companion; as a result, the haunted one and his ghastly companion share magic item slots.
For example, if the haunted one is wearing a magic ring, his ghastly companion can wear only one magic ring. In the case of a conflict, the items worn by the haunted one remain active, and those worn by the ghastly companion become dormant.
The ghastly companion must possess the appropriate appendages to utilize a magic item.

Mortal Anchor (Ex)
The ghastly companion is bound to the soul of the haunted one. While the exact nature of this bond is up to the player, the result is always the same; the ghost can’t move beyond a certain range of the haunted one. At 1st level the ghastly companion is only able to move up to 100 feet away from the haunted one. At 3rd level, and every odd numbered level after that, the ghastly companion can move an additional 100 feet away from the haunted one. When reach the 20th level, the ghastly companion can move anywhere on the same plane of the haunted one.
Should the haunted one be killed, the ghastly companion flies into a mad rage. It begins to attack the nearest available target to the best of its ability. Should it find itself unable to attack the target for whatever reason, it will berate and verbally abuse the target instead. The ghastly companion will continue to focus on the target unless a better target (an old rival of the haunted one, the killer, an obnoxious divine caster, etc.) presents itself. The ghastly companion is still anchored to the haunted one, and cannot move beyond it’s normal boundary. The ghastly companion remains for a number of rounds equal to the haunted one’s level or his Charisma modifier, whichever is higher. After this, the ghastly companion dissolves into nothing. Should the haunted one be resurrected, his ghastly companion returns to him.

Share Spells (Su)
The haunted one can cast a spell with a target of “you” on his ghastly companion (as a spell with a range of touch) instead of on himself. A haunted one can cast spells from his spell list on his ghastly companion even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the ghastly companion’s type (undead). This ability does not allow the ghastly companion to share abilities that aren’t spells, even if they function like spells.

Unreliable (Ex)
No ghost relishes the idea of being denied entry to the afterlife. Being bound to a mortal soul is simply an additional insult they must endure. As a result, whenever the ghost is asked a question, there is a 50% chance the ghost will simply lie to the haunted one. The haunted one can attempt a Sense Motive check to determine if the ghastly companion is lying or not. In addition, the ghost goes out of its way to make life unpleasant for the haunted one even when the haunted one tries to be agreeable; it may verbally abuse him, throw loose debris at him, knock his food away, give him unpleasant dreams, or drive away his friends. This can happen even if the ghost is not manifested and is within the consciousness of the haunted one. When possessing the haunted one, the ghost may attempt to overtly embarrass the haunted one. The exact nature of the relationship between the haunted one and the ghastly companion should be discussed with the GM. Regardless, the ghastly companion will always assist the haunted one in combat or in times of crisis, as it recognizes the fact that it will dissolve without its mortal anchor.

Ability Score Increase (Ex)
The ghastly companion adds 1 to one of its ability scores.

Reliable (Ex)
At a certain point, a spirit comes to terms with the haunted one, and no longer actively works against its host. At 10th level the ghastly companion no longer has the unreliable ability, and will answer questions truthfully unless given reason to do otherwise. Additionally, the ghastly companion becomes more pleasant towards the haunted one, and stops aggressively harassing him unless obviously provoked.

Ghastly Companion Choices

Allip
The mad soul of one who took their own life, now trapped in unlife.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 30 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 12, Con -, Int 11, Wis 11, Cha 14; Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1 Wisdom damage); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal

5th Level Advancement:
Attack incorporeal touch (1d4 Wisdom damage); Special Attacks babble

Babble (Su)
An allip constantly mutters to itself, creating a hypnotic effect. All sane creatures within 60 feet of the allip must succeed at a Will save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the allip’s Charisma modifier) or be fascinated for 2d4 rounds. While a target is fascinated, the allip can approach it without breaking the effect, but an attack by any creature ends the effect. Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same allip's babble for 24 hours. This is a sonic, mind-affecting compulsion effect.

Banshee
The spirit of an elven maiden trapped by betrayal; either her own or her lovers.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 40 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 14, Con -, Int 5, Wis 14, Cha 15; Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1d4 negative energy plus terror); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal; Weakness daylight vulnerability

Daylight Vulnerability (Ex)
A banshee is not powerless in natural daylight, but she does take a -2 penalty on all attack rolls, checks, and saves when in natural sunlight (but not within the radius of a daylight spell).

9th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks incorporeal touch (2d6 negative energy plus terror), wail

Terror (Su)
Any creature damaged by a banshee’s touch attack must make a Will save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the banshee’s Charisma modifier). Failure means the target cowers in fear for 1d3 rounds. If a target is protected against fear by a dispellable effect (such as heroes’ feast or mind blank), the banshee’s touch attempts to dispel one such effect with greater dispel magic (caster level equal to the banshee’s HD). Negative energy damage caused by a banshee’s touch can only harm the living; it cannot heal undead. This is a mind-affecting fear effect.

Wail (Su)
Once per minute, but not more than once per day per point of Charisma modifier of the haunted one, a banshee can wail as a full-round action. The wail lasts until the beginning of her next turn. All creatures within 40 feet of the banshee when she begins her wail, as well as all creatures that end their turn within that radius, must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the banshee’s Charisma modifier). This save is only required once per wail. Creatures under the effects of a fear effect take a –4 penalty on this save. Those that fail are affected by the wail, taking 1d6 points of damage per haunted one level and are sickened for 1d6 rounds. Creatures that make their save half the damage and negate the sickened condition. If a wailing banshee is damaged during a wail, she must make a Will save (DC 15 + damage taken) to maintain the wail; otherwise it ends. This is a sonic death effect. Banshee wails are supernaturally powerful, and penetrate the effect of any spell of 3rd level or lower that creates silence.

Bhuta
A ghostlike creature born of horrible death or murder in a natural setting.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 40 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 16, Con -, Int 10, Wis 8, Cha 16; Special Attacks 2 incorporeal claws (1d4 plus bleed), bleed (1d3); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal; Weakness cold iron

Cold Iron Weakness (Su)
A cold iron weapon is considered to be magical when used against a bhuta (inflicting ½ the usual damage unless it posses the ghost touch property).

9th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks 2 incorporeal claws (2d6 plus bleed), bleed (1d8), blood drain

Blood Drain (Su)
As a standard action, a bhuta can suck blood from an adjacent opponent that is taking bleed damage. The target takes 1d3 points of Constitution damage with a Fortitude save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the caller in darkness ’s Charisma modifier) for half the damage. The bhuta heals 5 hit points when it drains blood.

Caller in Darkness
The psychic remains of a creature with psychic sensitivity that died a violent death.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 40 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 16, Con -, Int 11, Wis 13, Cha 14; Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1d4), wrap in despair; Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal; Weakness daylight vulnerability; Aura unnatural aura (30 ft.)

Daylight Vulnerability (Ex)
A caller in darkness is not powerless in natural daylight, but it does take a -2 penalty on all attack rolls, checks, and saves when in natural sunlight (but not within the radius of a daylight spell).

Wrap in Despair (Su)
Any living creature that begins its turn occupying the same space as a caller in darkness must succeed on a Will save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the caller in darkness ’s Charisma modifier) or be overwhelmed by crippling depression for 1d4 rounds. Affected creatures are unable to take any action. Each round on its turn, the subject may attempt a new saving throw to end the effect. This is a full-round action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. If the creature succeeds on a saving throw, it is immune to this caller in darkness’s wrap in despair ability for 24 hours. Creatures with Intelligence scores of 2 or less are immune to this effect. This is an emotion, fear, mind-affecting effect.

9th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks incorporeal touch (2d6), consume mind

Consume Mind (Su)
Whenever a caller in darkness hits a creature with its incorporeal touch attack, or begins its turn occupying the same space as a creature, it drains away a portion of that creature’s mind, inflicting 1d4 points of Wisdom damage with a Will save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the caller in darkness ’s Charisma modifier) for negate the Wisdom damage. This is a mind-affecting effect, but not a negative energy effect. If the caller in darkness reduces a living creature’s Wisdom score to 0 in this way, it absorbs that creature’s mind, killing it and gaining access to all of the creature’s memories. A creature whose mind is absorbed in this way can be raised or resurrected as normal.

Chained Spirit
A chained spirit is the tormented soul of one who was charged, cursed, or honor-bound to guard a certain place or object, only to be slain in the course of such duty.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 60 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 16, Con -, Int 11, Wis 13, Cha 16; Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1 Charisma damage); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal, spiritsense; Weakness spectral bindings

Spectral Bindings (Su)
A chained spirit is extremely mobile, with only one major hindrance: no matter how far it moves on its turn, it automatically returns adjacent to its haunted one when its turn ends. This immediate return does not count as an action and does not provoke attacks of opportunity, as the spirit simply reappears back adjacent to its haunted one. In essence, when manifested, the chained spirit is confined adjacent to its haunted one except the distance it can travel in a single round before returning to adjacent to the haunted one. If all the squares adjacent to the haunted one are occupied, one random creature is shunted to the closest available square. If a solid object occupies all the squares adjacent to the haunted one, the spirit’s incorporeal nature allows it to return regardless. Even a force effect cannot thwart it as it simply reappears adjacent to its haunted one, though if that force effect occupies all the squares adjacent to the haunted one, the chained spirit is automatically banished back in the consciousness of the haunted one.

Spiritsense (Su)
A chained spirit notices, locates, and can distinguish between living and undead creatures within 60 feet, just as if it had the blindsight ability. If the haunted one has the Hearing Heartbeats ghost trick, the chained spirit grant spiritsense when confined inside his consciousness instead of lifesense.

9th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1d3 Charisma), chain spirit, chains (2d4 plus Dexterity), spectral chains; Special Qualities immune to positive energy

Chain Spirit (Su)
As a standard action once per day, a chained spirit can attempt to chain any corporeal creature with an Intelligence score of 3 or higher that it can detect via spiritsense; it need not have line of sight or line of effect to such a creature. The targeted creature must succeed at a Will save (DC DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the chained spirit’s Charisma modifier) or take 1d4 points of Charisma drain. A creature dies if this Charisma drain equals or exceeds its actual Charisma score. If the victim fail his save, the chained spirit can see and hear through the senses of the creature whenever it wishes as long they are on the same Plane, even when confined in the consciousness of the haunted one. This is a curse effect and can be removed with break enchantment, limited wish, miracle, remove curse, and wish. For the purpose of this spells, the caster level is equal to the chained spirit level. The chained spirit can have any number of chained creature at the same time, up to its Charisma modifier (minimum 1). When chained with success another creature above its maximum number allowed, it must select which creature free from this effect.

Charisma Damage (Su)
A chained spirit’s touch deals 1d3 points of Charisma damage with its incorporeal touch to a living creature. A creature dies if this Charisma damage equals or exceeds its actual Charisma score.

Spectral Chains (Su)
Numerous chains extend from a chained spirit. Some are corporeal and can make melee attacks. These corporeal chains are treated as evil, magical, ghost touch weapons and deal 2d4 bludgeoning damage. Each chain is treated as if wielded one-handed by a creature with a Strength score equal to the chained spirit Dexterity score for the purpose of attack and damage rolls. A sundered chain automatically reforms 1 round later. A chained spirit has a number of chains equal to ¼ the haunted one level.

Cinderghost
These undead arise from intelligent creatures that die in the cinderplains of the Plane of Fire.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 40 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 14, Con -, Int 13, Wis 13, Cha 16; Special Attacks incorporeal touch (1d4 plus heat), heat (1d6 fire); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal, fire immunity

9th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks incorporeal touch (2d6 plus dessication touch and heat), heat (2d6 fire); Special Qualities cleansing fire, fire subtype; Weakness cold vulnerability

Cleansing Fire (Ex)
As long as a cinderghost is in an environment where ashes are plentiful (such as a non-urban area on the Plane of Fire, or a burned-out settlement or field on another plane), it has fast healing 5. It loses this fast healing if it leaves such an area.

Desiccating Touch (Su)
As part of its incorporeal touch attack, a cinderghost draws the moisture from its opponent’s body, causing the victim to wither into ash. The target must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the cinderghost’s Charisma modifier) or take 1d3 points of Constitution damage.

Danse Macabre
Dozens of ghostly figures swirl and cavort, floating through the air as they follow the steps of an ancient, rhythmic dance— seemingly keeping time with the ebb and flow of life itself. Amid this eerie crowd of dancing specters looms a dark-cloaked figure wielding a scythe. This figure embody the inevitability of death.
Starting Statistics:
Size Medium; Speed fly 40 ft. (perfect); Ability Scores Str -, Dex 14, Con -, Int 8, Wis 14, Cha 16; Special Attacks incorporeal scythe (2d4/x4); Special Qualities undead traits, incorporeal, call weaponry

Incorporeal Scythe (Su)
A danse macabre wields an incorporeal scythe in combat that leaves deep and horrific wounds on any creature it strikes. Attacks made with this scythe are touch attacks and deal slashing damage, but are not modified by any of the monster’s ability scores.

Call Weaponry (Su)
The danse macabre can call his incorporeal scythe to its hands at will as a free action from any distance (even across planar boundaries). If the weapons is destroyed, it can remake it and cause the rebuilt weapon to appear in its hand as a standard action; Remaking a weapon in this way provokes attacks of opportunity, but calling a weapon does not.

9th Level Advancement:

Constitution Damage (Su)
A creature hit by a danse macabre’s incorporeal scythe attack take 1 point of Constitution damage. A creature can resist the effect with a successful Fortitude save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the danse macabre’s Charisma modifier).

Dance of Death (Su)
A danse macabre is constantly surrounded by a 40-foot aura known as the dance of death, an endless gala of dancing spectral figures. Any living creature that enters the area of the dance of death must attempt a Will save (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + the danse macabre’s Charisma modifier). On a failed save, the victim joins the ghostly dancers, takes 1d4 points of Constitution damage, and is affected as per irresistible dance (CL equal to the dance macabre HD) with the difference that the creature does not lost the shield bonus to armor class, does not provoke attack of opportunity every round he dance, and the penalty to armor class and Reflex save is reduced to -2. A creature can attempt a new Will save at the end of its turn to escape from the effects of a dance of death; otherwise, these effects persist for as long as the victim remains within the aura. The Constitution damage effect only occurs, however, after the initial failed saving throw. As victims cannot willingly move from the square in which they dance, the dance’s effects end when the danse macabre moves to a point where the victim is no longer within its aura, the danse macabre is destroyed, or if the victim is physically removed from the area. A victim who succeeds at a save (whether from the original exposure or at a later point to successfully escape the effect) is immune to the dance of death of the same danse macabre for 24 hours. Dance of death is a visual, sonic, mind-affecting compulsion effect, and blindness or deafness can provide protection from the effect.

A yuki-onna is surrounded by whirling blasts of snow, even in areas that wouldn't allow for such weather, that comprise a 10 foot radius spread. Within this area, the snowfall and wind gusts cause a -4 penalty on Perception checks and ranged attacks. The wind itself blows in a clockwise rotation around the yuki-onna, and functions as severe wind. A yuki-onna is unaffected by snowstorms and blizzards of any kind. Any effect that causes these winds to drop below severe (such as control weather or control winds) cancels the snowstorm effect entirely.

7th Level Advancement:
Special Attacks 2 incorporeal touches (2d6 cold plus chilling touch), chilling touch, fascinating gaze

Chilling Touch (Su)
Whenever a creature takes cold damage from the yuki-onna, it must make a Fortitude save to avoid being staggered by the supernatural cold for 1 round (DC 10 + ½ the undead HD + yuki-onna’s Charisma modifier). This duration stacks.

Fascinating Gaze (Su)
Fascinated for 1d4 rounds, 30 feet, Will negates (DC 10 + ½ HD + yuki-onna’s Charisma modifier). Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same yuki-onna's fascinating gaze for 24 hours. This is a charm, mind-affecting effect.
