Thus, a 3rd level sorcerer/3rd level dragonfire adept that reaches her second level in draconic archanamach is eligible to acquire a breath effect as if it had reached her 5th level in dragonfire adept, as usual. Furthermore, the draconic archanamach is eligible to choose metabreath feats, as if her breath weapon had an effective recharge rate of 1 round.</p><p>If a draconic archanamach acquired the breath weapon by means of another class (such as the dragon shaman base class or the dragon disciple prestige class) or through means of a racial ability (such as the breath weapon of a half-dragon or dragonborn), the damage of the breath weapon increases by one die every two class levels of the draconic archanamach.</p><p></p><p><strong>Draconic Heritage</strong>:*A draconic archanamach gains the Draconic Heritage as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites. A half-dragon draconic archanamach that gains this feat must choose the dragon type to which she belongs, as usual. If the draconic archanamach already has this feat, she may choose a bonus feat instead. At levels 5 and 9, a draconic archanamach gains an additional draconic feat that she meets the prerequisites for.</p><p></p><p><strong>Blood of Dragons</strong>: A draconic archanamach add her level to her effective sorcerer levels when determining the powers gained from her bloodline. If the draconic archanamach does not have sorcerer levels, she instead gains bloodline power from the draconic bloodline using her draconic archanamach level as her sorcerer levels to determine bonuses gained. She must choose a dragon type upon her first level int his class and that type must be the same as her sorcerer type. This ability does not grant bonus spells to a sorcerer unless he possesses spell slots of an appropriate level. Such bonus spells are automatically granted if the sorcerer gains spell slots of the spell's level.</p><p></p><p><strong>Dragonpact</strong>:*At 2nd level, a draconic archanamach takes advantage of her knowledge of arcane magic to establish a deeper pact with a dragon. Regardless of the method in which the draconic archanamach learned the arcane arts, the draconic magic within her and her awakened heritage allow said pact to happen. A draconic archanamach may establish a dragonpact as if it were a sorcerer of 4th level (see Dragonpacts, Dragon Magic page 87) regardless of the arcane class it follows. However, the draconic archanamach may only choose a pact offered by a dragon as chosen by the Draconic Heritage feat; if the chosen dragon cannot establish a dragonpact, the draconic archanamach may choose one based on similarities (thus, a draconic archanamach with Draconic Heritage (radiant dragon) may choose to establish a dragonpact with a gold dragon instead).</p><p>If the draconic archanamach is a sorcerer, this dragonpact does not count for the limit of dragonpacts she may make. She may make another dragonpact with a different kind of dragon if she so desires without any negative circumstances. </p><p></p><p><strong>Dragonspell (Sp)</strong>:*At 3rd level, a draconic archanamach alters a fundamental aspect of her arcane magic to resemble her knowledge of draconic power. She loses some of her flexibility or power, but in exchange acquires the ability to use a single spell she knows when she so desires.</p><p>If the draconic archanamach casts spells spontaneously (such as by being a sorcerer), she may permanently sacrifice one spell slot of 2nd level or lower and choose a single 2nd level or lower spell she knows. The spell must be on her spell list and belong to the sorcerer/wizard spell list (except for sorcerers, who may choose a spell from any list so as long as it is a spell known to them, such as spells from the Draconic Legacy feat or spells acquired from heritage feats); furthermore, the spell cannot have a costly material component or an XP requirement. From now on, the draconic archanamach may cast that spell as a spell-like ability 4 times per day, using her arcane caster level.</p><p>At 6th level and again at 9th level, a draconic archanamach may choose to permanently sacrifice a spell slot of higher level and use a single spell known as a spell-like ability. The draconic archanamach is limited to a spell of 5th level or lower at level 6, and a spell of 7th level or lower at level 9th. A draconic archanamach is not forced to use this ability at the moment it acquires it; she may delay the permanent expenditure of spell slots and the choice of spells for a later moment; however, once that choice is made, it is permanent and may not be changed. At 5th level you gain one additional use per day and at 9th you gain one more additional use per day. When you select a spell that is higher than 2nd level, you lose a use per day for every level above 2nd.</p><p></p><p><strong>Draconic Epiphany (Ex)</strong>:*Starting at 4th level, a draconic archanamach may select one spell from any class’s spell list (including divine spells), of a level lower than the highest-level arcane spell she can cast. The draconic archanamach may add this spell to her arcane spellcasting class spell list as a spell of the same level; all other aspects of the spell remain unchanged. Draconic archanamach who cast spells spontaneously add the spell to their list of spells known (and the acquired spell does not count against the limit of spells known by the draconic archanamach). A draconic archanamach may not use a spell acquired by this method as the spell to be used through the dragonspell class ability (see above). At 7th level and again at 10th level, a draconic archanamach adds another spell to her spellbook or list of spells known. </p><p></p><p><strong>Breath Channeling (Su)</strong>:*At 5th level, a draconic archanamach may channel the effect of any arcane spell that affects an area through her breath weapon. As a full-round action, a draconic archanamach may attack with her breath weapon and cast the spell at the same time; the area of the breath weapon effectively becomes the spell’s area as well. A draconic archanamach that has a breath weapon through the dragonfire adept class may choose the breath weapon’s area to be a line or a cone, as usual. This ability only effects spells that already have a range on them. i.e. this ability does not effect disguise self to deal damage and disguise the enemies.</p><p></p><p><strong>Improved Dragonpact</strong>:*At 8th level, the draconic archanamach gains a stronger benefit from establishing a dragonpact. So as long as the draconic archanamach has the benefits of her dragonpact (or dragonpacts, if a sorcerer), she can prepare or cast the spell-like abilities of her dragonpact as if they were known spells. They are added to the list of spells known (if the draconic archanamach casts arcane spells spontaneously). A draconic archanamach may not use a spell acquired by this method as the spell to be used through the dragonspell class ability (see above).</p></blockquote><p></p>

[B]Class Features[/B] All of the following are features of the draconic archanamach prestige class. [B]Weapon and Armor Proficiency[/B]: Draconic archanamachs gain no proficiency with any weapon or armor. [B]Breath Weapon[/B]:*A draconic archanamach’s breath weapon increases in potency depending on the method through which she has acquired the ability. If a draconic archanamach acquired the breath weapon by means of the dragonfire adept class (see*Dragon Magic, page 25), levels in draconic archanamach stack for purposes of determining the damage of the breath weapon and breath effects accessible to her. Thus, a 3rd level sorcerer/3rd level dragonfire adept that reaches her second level in draconic archanamach is eligible to acquire a breath effect as if it had reached her 5th level in dragonfire adept, as usual. Furthermore, the draconic archanamach is eligible to choose metabreath feats, as if her breath weapon had an effective recharge rate of 1 round. If a draconic archanamach acquired the breath weapon by means of another class (such as the dragon shaman base class or the dragon disciple prestige class) or through means of a racial ability (such as the breath weapon of a half-dragon or dragonborn), the damage of the breath weapon increases by one die every two class levels of the draconic archanamach. [B]Draconic Heritage[/B]:*A draconic archanamach gains the Draconic Heritage as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites. A half-dragon draconic archanamach that gains this feat must choose the dragon type to which she belongs, as usual. If the draconic archanamach already has this feat, she may choose a bonus feat instead. At levels 5 and 9, a draconic archanamach gains an additional draconic feat that she meets the prerequisites for. [B]Blood of Dragons[/B]: A draconic archanamach add her level to her effective sorcerer levels when determining the powers gained from her bloodline. If the draconic archanamach does not have sorcerer levels, she instead gains bloodline power from the draconic bloodline using her draconic archanamach level as her sorcerer levels to determine bonuses gained. She must choose a dragon type upon her first level int his class and that type must be the same as her sorcerer type. This ability does not grant bonus spells to a sorcerer unless he possesses spell slots of an appropriate level. Such bonus spells are automatically granted if the sorcerer gains spell slots of the spell's level. [B]Dragonpact[/B]:*At 2nd level, a draconic archanamach takes advantage of her knowledge of arcane magic to establish a deeper pact with a dragon. Regardless of the method in which the draconic archanamach learned the arcane arts, the draconic magic within her and her awakened heritage allow said pact to happen. A draconic archanamach may establish a dragonpact as if it were a sorcerer of 4th level (see Dragonpacts, Dragon Magic page 87) regardless of the arcane class it follows. However, the draconic archanamach may only choose a pact offered by a dragon as chosen by the Draconic Heritage feat; if the chosen dragon cannot establish a dragonpact, the draconic archanamach may choose one based on similarities (thus, a draconic archanamach with Draconic Heritage (radiant dragon) may choose to establish a dragonpact with a gold dragon instead). If the draconic archanamach is a sorcerer, this dragonpact does not count for the limit of dragonpacts she may make. She may make another dragonpact with a different kind of dragon if she so desires without any negative circumstances. [B]Dragonspell (Sp)[/B]:*At 3rd level, a draconic archanamach alters a fundamental aspect of her arcane magic to resemble her knowledge of draconic power. She loses some of her flexibility or power, but in exchange acquires the ability to use a single spell she knows when she so desires. If the draconic archanamach casts spells spontaneously (such as by being a sorcerer), she may permanently sacrifice one spell slot of 2nd level or lower and choose a single 2nd level or lower spell she knows. The spell must be on her spell list and belong to the sorcerer/wizard spell list (except for sorcerers, who may choose a spell from any list so as long as it is a spell known to them, such as spells from the Draconic Legacy feat or spells acquired from heritage feats); furthermore, the spell cannot have a costly material component or an XP requirement. From now on, the draconic archanamach may cast that spell as a spell-like ability 4 times per day, using her arcane caster level. At 6th level and again at 9th level, a draconic archanamach may choose to permanently sacrifice a spell slot of higher level and use a single spell known as a spell-like ability. The draconic archanamach is limited to a spell of 5th level or lower at level 6, and a spell of 7th level or lower at level 9th. A draconic archanamach is not forced to use this ability at the moment it acquires it; she may delay the permanent expenditure of spell slots and the choice of spells for a later moment; however, once that choice is made, it is permanent and may not be changed. At 5th level you gain one additional use per day and at 9th you gain one more additional use per day. When you select a spell that is higher than 2nd level, you lose a use per day for every level above 2nd. [B]Draconic Epiphany (Ex)[/B]:*Starting at 4th level, a draconic archanamach may select one spell from any class’s spell list (including divine spells), of a level lower than the highest-level arcane spell she can cast. The draconic archanamach may add this spell to her arcane spellcasting class spell list as a spell of the same level; all other aspects of the spell remain unchanged. Draconic archanamach who cast spells spontaneously add the spell to their list of spells known (and the acquired spell does not count against the limit of spells known by the draconic archanamach). A draconic archanamach may not use a spell acquired by this method as the spell to be used through the dragonspell class ability (see above). At 7th level and again at 10th level, a draconic archanamach adds another spell to her spellbook or list of spells known.

They are added to the list of spells known (if the draconic archanamach casts arcane spells spontaneously).
