Here's some more mana feats/abilities..
Mana Siphon (General, Mana)
You are able to passively absorb mana from the environment, or draw more when actively pulling on the mana in the area.
Prerequisites: Mana Manipulation, Mana Battery
Benefits: Whenever you are below 75% of max mana capacity, you automatically draw in mana at a rate of 1 per round until you are at 75% capacity. If you concentrate to draw mana, you can now draw, after a successful Concentration check DC 15 (plus additional penalties from situations such as in combat, loud noises, etc), and gains 2d6 + Intelligence modifier mana for that turn, instead of the normal 1d6 + Int modifier. For every 5 points over the Concentration DC, gain an additional 1 mana. Also in areas with specific types of mana, can draw that type of mana passively at 2 mana per round, or actively draw at 2d8 + Int modifier, but this mana must be used first.
Conjure Item (General, Mana)
You are able to condense and form mana into solid matter, for limited times.
Prerequisites: Mana Manipulation, Mana Battery
Benefit: For 12 mana, you can create 1 lb of material of choice that is not an alloy, complex chemical or organic material, for 5 rounds, the item will have 75% of the hit points of similar type of item, unless the material used is better than a basic version, such as an iron cup will have more hit points than one made of wood. So can create a blade of iron that weighs 1 lb, up to 5 rounds about the size of a dagger, or pound of gold. Could create simple acids that only deal 1d4 acid damage, but pours from the user's hands. User can't create glass to hold the acid. For each additional 6 mana, increase the duration by 5 rounds; or increase the amount of material by another 1 lb. If using blue mana, the duration is doubled. If using a combination of at least 2 types of mana besides raw mana, with a total cost of an additional 200% of the mana cost of the item, the item becomes permanent, until destroyed.
Advanced Conjure Item (General, Mana)
You are able to condense and form mana into solid matter, creating more complex items.
Prerequisites: Mana Manipulation, Mana Battery, Conjure Item
Benefit: For 15 mana, you can create 1 lb of material of choice that is not magical based material (those created through the use of magic in its creation), and can have up to 5 articulation parts (such as something similar to a arm, basic legs, simple grasping parts), for 5 rounds, the item will have 75% of the hit points of similar type of item, unless the material used is better than a basic version, such as an iron cup will have more hit points than one made of wood. Items with articulation are very basic, such as a very basic humanoid form doll with arms, legs that bend, or even something like a gauntlet which could be worn and the finger joints move when worn. So can create a blade of iron that weighs 1 lb, up to 5 rounds about the size of a dagger, or pound of gold, or mithril. Could create more complex acids that can deal up to 2d6 acid damage (or ones that can affect slightly more specific materials such as burns metal but not organic materials), but pours from the user's hands. For each additional 8 mana, increase the duration by 3 rounds; or increase the amount of material by another 1 lb. If using blue mana, the duration is doubled. If using a combination of at least 2 types of mana besides raw mana, with a total cost of an additional 250% of the mana cost of the item, the item becomes permanent, until destroyed. If the user has Knowledge: Earth Sciences, Knowledge: Technology, and Craft: Mechanical, use this ability to make components for items and fit them together much easier, or the items will have 100% normal hit points due to their greater understanding of the items they are conjuring.
Greater Mana Battery (General, Mana)
You are able to store massive amounts of mana.
Prerequisites: Mana Manipulation, Mana Battery
Benefits: You are able to store and generate larger amounts of mana. You can access a mana point pool of Intelligence x6. If the user also has classes capable of casting spells, gains +4/spell caster level. Also any spell slots converted to mana generate triple mana points, thus converting a level 3 spell to mana generates 9 points of mana. Alternatively, converting mana into spell slots uses 75% less mana rounding up, thus to create a level 3 spell slot uses 1 mana. Level 1 and level 0 spell slots still uses 1 mana point.
Greater Improved Ability (General, Mana)
When you use mana to improve one of your natural abilities, you can focus more mana to get better improvements.
Prerequisite: Mana Manipulation.
Benefit: When improving a natural ability, the user can spend 5 mana points to improve 1 ability score by +3 for 5 rounds (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma), or improve one type of their movement by 25 feet for 5 rounds, or any one other racial extraordinary ability (such as darkvision, breathweapon, tremorsense, etc) by 40% for fixed numbers, or 2 extra die if variable number, or duration by 40%, rounding down, for 5 rounds.
Convert Mana (General, Mana)
You can change your stored mana, or mana you absorb from the environment into specific types of mana.
Prerequisite: Int 15, Con 12, Wis 12, Mana Manipulation, Mana Battery
Benefit: You can change some mana in your mana pool, or the mana in the environment you absorbing into a different type at a rate of 2 mana to convert to 1 mana of the new type, taking a move equivalent action and a Concentration check DC 15, converting a maximum of Int modifier plus Wis modifier mana, however for every 5 points over the DC, can convert an additional 1 mana. For example, can convert 6 mana in mana pool, which is basic raw type into 3 of any particular type such as white or red, but all converted must be the same type. Mana converted within the user's mana pool is stored as that type of mana until used, while mana absorbed from the environment must be used within 3 rounds, unless it is being used to replenish already depleted mana pool until reaching normal max mana.
Once a being has at least 2 Mana related feats, they can begin to use mana in other ways than the basic ways, creating new attacks, defenses and way of use. These are not feats, but are mana related abilities. One plus 1 per every 2 points of Intelligence modifier can be gained every level. One mana ability can be replaced for another one upon reaching a new level. Below are some example abilities. Using one is a standard action unless specified otherwise.
