They usually come from societies where ancestors are traditionally respected.Typical goals for a spirit warrior are to finish anything that his ancestors had not managed to do, avenge the death of his forefather or otherwise clean the name of his ancestor or ancestors. Other spirit warriors try to reclaim the bodies of his ancestors and make sure that they get proper funerals and may finally rest in peace.Prerequiments:BAB: +5Skills: Knowledge: History: 5 ranks, Knowledge: Ceremony or religion: 3 ranksClass Abilities:Hit Dice: d10BAB: FullSaves: Fort: Medium (Poor if medium is not used) Ref: Poor Will: GoodSkill Points: 4+IntClass Skills: Climb (Str), Craft (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Intimidate (Cha), Jump (Str), Knowledge (History), Knowledge (ceremony or religion), Search (Int), Sense Motive (Wis)Level    Ability1    Ceremony of Knowledge, The Sacred Ground2    Guidance of the Great Warrior3    Part of the spirit world I4    Ceremony of Expertness5    Recognised heir6    Style long forgotten7    Ceremony of the Warrior8    Follow the path of the Spirits9    Part of the spirit world II10    Might of the ForefathersCeremony of Knowledge By using a ritual that takes 1 minute to complete the Spirit Warrior can communicate with the spirits.

After concentrating for 3 rounds the Spirit Warrior find the locations of the burial grounds within the 100 feet radius from him. The Spirit Warrior can find out general information about certain grave. By concentrating towards a grave for a full round he gains the following information about it: the race of the deceaded, the age of the grave (recent, new, old, very old, ancient), general condition of the spirit of the deceaded (free, trapped, undead).Guidance of the Great Warrior The Spirit Warrior is taught by the spirits of the greatest warriors that have lived. When fighting intelligent opponents he gains +1 competence bonus to attack rolls.Part of the Spirit World I Any weapon wielded by the Spirit Warrior is considered having a ghost touch enchantment. A visible silver aura can be seen around the weapon.Ceremony of Expertness By using ritual that takes a full round action to complete the Spirit Warrior gains advice from the spirits. Ha can add +2 competence bonus to his next skill check.

The ancestor is a ghost with at least same number of class levels than the Spirit Warrior. The Spirit will stay in the material world for 1 hour / Spirit Warriors INT modifier. If the spirit is slain during that time the spirit returns immediatly to its normal plane and is uncapable to contact the material plane for a week.The Spirit Warrior is required to perform a quest to reclaim his connection to the spirit. Untill he has completed the quest he loses other benefits of the Spirit Warrior except Style long forgotten, Guidance of the Great Warrior and Recognised heir-----------There are certain things that I'm still not sure about:1.) Prerequisities. They should be something that 5th or 6th level fighter type could be able to fullfill.2.) Number of times the abilities can be used. I decided to base it on INT as it seem to fit best for the idea of character capable of understanding the spirits. Other possibility would be CHA.3.) Overall balance of the powers.</blockquote>
