[QUOTE="Ahnehnois, post: 6098845, member: 17106"] Yes, the archivist from Heroes of Horror is a pretty explicit fit. A divine caster with a spellbook and some special abilities related to knowledge of monsters. Another that might fit the bill with some reflavoring is the master Transmogrifist (CA), which gets shapeshifting abilities weird enough that you could add some flavor that you're channeling shoggoths or something. There aren't any classes, but Elder Evils has a number of feats that play into the "tool of a dark elder god" concept. Lords of Madness is another interesting source, with several feats and prestige classes that fit the concept. The [URL="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/witch"]Witch[/URL] from Pathfinder picks a mysterious patron and could fit the bill well with minimal conversion. There's even a "dimensional occultist" archetype. Other helpful resources might be the Planar Handbook (Doomlord prestige class and planar substitution levels for the core classes), BoVD, and Fiendish Codex I. [/QUOTE]
