I'm working on a PrC, but I'm not sure how to dole out the abilities. Any input on where certain abilities should show up and which ones might be too powerful welcome...
The King’s Chosen PrC
Every king is expected to have "companions", and every king is expected to have bodyguards. What assassins and other evildoers often don't except is for them to be the one and the same. But the lovely women who serve one royal family, waiting on the king or singing and dancing to amuse guests are also watching those guests for any threat and stand ready to defend the king with their lives.
The King's Chosen are drawn from the same noble families as champions and generals. The young women are picked early and raised in the palace to be charming, talented and formidable hand to hand fighters. If found to be good enugh, and if they are willing, they serve the king as 'temporary wives'. The child they bear is removed immediately and, if male, raised as an heir. The Chosen then go back into more intensive training to serve and protect the family they are now bound to.
Alignment: Any lawful
Hit Die: d8
Requirements:
Skills Perform 5 ranks, diplomacy 5 ranks, sense motive 4 ranks
