I'm looking for a demon hunter-like PrC. I checked out Knights of the Chalice from DotF and like it (although the multiclass ranger/cleric, ranger/palandin combo seems a bit odd), but I am wondering if there any other PrCs out there like it. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Demon Hunter PrCs, where can i find 'em?
- Thread starter Shadow64

Defenders of the Faith
There are two classes that have to do with demon hunting in the Defenders of the Faith book.
Knight of the Chalice - demon hunting knights or paladins
They get everything from turning of demons to bonuses to hit and to damage demons. Some magic but mostly combat-orientated.
Sacred Exorcist - an exorcist (duh)
They get an Exorcism bonus domain and advance normally for spells by their previous class. Mostly geared toward undead but could be modified to fight outsiders pretty easily, esp. if you use the possession rules in BoVD.

Thanks for the replies. I found the two in DotF and while i liked the Knight of the Chalice i didn't want to burn a single level of ranger to fulfill the "favored" enemy bit. Plus, to be honest it seems to be a very, very powerful class. d12 hitdice, fighter bab, decent saves (iirc), special abilites, huge damage bonuses to demons and spell casting ability. Sacred Exorcist is close, but doesn't fit perfectly.
I semi-checked out the Witch Hunter, but that really doesn't fit with the campaign. Although if i make my own PrC it will be one of the things i draw on.
The one from Dragon is from issue 287 and is called the Fiend Slayer. Nice little PrC by Monte. It is actually the one I ended up taking. Although, since this is for a high-level character (15th level) I am making the "new" character completes the PrC.
I am probably going to do some work and rework the Knight of the Chalice a bit for his next few levels and make it something a bit more fighter-centric and drop some of the spell casting abilites. Plus, since he already gets a +4 bonus from Fiend Slayer i may drop the KotC bonus to 1/2 of what it is (+1/+1d6 at 5, +2/+2d6 at 10).
