There are a chosen few who use their might to flip the bird to the snooty, overpowered adventurers and monsters of the world. Not just flip it, but fling it, too. These saviors of bird kind are the Chicken Lords! Defenders of animals everywhere, the Chicken Lords are the generals of armies of little feathery birds. Through your influence, you give them supernatural powers.
Birds of a feather kick asses together.
Prerequisites:
-Feat: Animal Affinity, Quick Draw
-Flaw: Chicken Infested
-Skills: Handle Animal 7 ranks, Profession(Farmer) 4 ranks
The Nitty-Gritty:
-Proficiencies: You gain no Weapon proficiencies, and gain proficiency in Light Armor.
-BAB as Fighter
-Good Saves: Fort, Ref, Will
Class Skills: Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Handle Animal (Cha),Jump (Str), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Listen (Wis), Perform(Cha), Profession (Wis), Ride (Dex), Spot (Wis), Survival (Wis), and Use Rope (Dex)
Skill Points per level:
4 + Int modifier
<br />Lvl........<br />1..........Summon Flock, Chicken Knight<br />2..........Chicken Baron<br />3..........Chicken Dance<br />4..........Chicken Lord<br />5..........Chicken Messiah
Summon Flock: 1/day per level of Chicken Lord, you may summon a swarm of chickens. This ability is treated as Solid Fog, but its chickens instead of fog(obviously) with a 5-foot radius and a caster level equal to 1/2 of your Character level.
Chicken Knight: Upon reaching 2nd level, the Chicken Lord gains the ability to wield his legion of chickens in battle, using them as weapons against his enemies. Chickens are counted as Improvised Weapons, however, as a Chicken Lord, you are automatically proficient in their use with the Chicken Knight ability.
Chicken's Weapon stats are listed below. You may take feats such as Weapon Focus that improve your abilities to wield chickens in combat. However, due to the nature of the Chicken Infested feat, you may not use the Kensai class to improve your chickens, as you probably won't draw the same chicken.
Chicken Dance: You learn to reach out through dance to the hearts of your fowl and downtrodden minions, giving hope and inspiration to them. You are treated as having Inspire Greatness, affecting only chickens.
You may ignore the prerequisite 12 ranks in Perform. However, the DC of your Perform check is equal to 5 + 1 per every 4 chickens you choose to affect, up to a maximum of 8 chickens/character level.
But it has to be Perform(Dance). Nobody ever heard of the "Chicken Lute Solo" being played at weddings.
Chicken Baron: You learn the ancient secrets of making Chickens do what you want, which is a far cry from what anyone could normally do with a chicken. You can now use Rebuke Undead as a Cleric of your combined Commoner & Chicken Lord levels, but, you guessed it, only with chickens.
Chicken Lord: At level 4, you become a full-fledged Chicken Lord. You are treated as having the Leadership feat with some restrictions:
-You do not gain a cohort(sorry, no level 17 Chicken cohorts)
-Use the Raven's stats for each chicken, but without the Fly speed
http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/raven.htm(x)
-For every 1 Follower you would have, you gain 4 chickens instead, and may only have chickens.
-Instead of increased Follower levels, each level higher than one counts as that many level 1's. For example, with a Leadership score of 13, you would normally gain a level 2 Follower. Instead, you would gain 2 level 1 Followers(becoming a total of 8 extra chickens).
-Any ability, feat, etc that would affect the Leadership feat also affects the Chicken Lord ability
-These chickens are completely willing to put themselves in harm's way for you and are unafraid to be at personal risk under your command. Because chickens are stupid. Even though you love them.
Chicken Messiah: As your mastery of chickens reaches its pinnacle, you learn to bolster your chickens and communicate with them. You may now at will speak with any chicken as Speak with Animal. In addition, 3/day, you may cast Divine Power on every chicken in a 100 foot burst centered around you.

Pull the Chicken out of a Scabbard of Sharpening (or whatever it is that makes any weapon sheathed in it Keen for 3 rounds). A Keen chicken!

Not having any fun tonight, are we? Very very serious, sorry sorry.
Its just supposed to be a fun PrC. I'm not trying to break anybody's game with this, if that's what you mean/are after.

No, no nononononono! I fully support silliness in my games; hell, in the campaign I'm DMing, the BBEG is an [I]awakened[/I] Fiendish Rabbit Barbarian whose teeth are treated as Adamantine. I was simply...er...notifying you that...
Screw it. I apologize for being a douchebag. In fact, I am showing this PrC to the Fighter's player.

And then you called me nobody. I'd still take it. [IMG]http://community.wizards.com/sites/all/modules/custom/forest_site/smileys/wizards/weep.gif[/IMG]
In fact, I built this for a character of mine who exploited the Chicken Infested flaw in order to gain infinite gold.
And Charlie Sheen.

...Crap. Look, I'll give the BBEG a level of this, alright? That okay?

I know you call it Solid Fog, but shouldn't they have swarm traits? And what happens when you enchant the chicken with the Vicious quality? Huh? What then?!?!
And you need to include an animal growth SLA in there to use the Ride skill.

If it's treated as [I]Solid Fog[/I], does that mean it's a compressed mass of chickens or something?

I was originally going to use a swarm, but I liked the idea of a bunch of chickens flapping around making a big of distraction.
For Vicious Chickens, good question. I think that since Vicious Weapons don't take the damage themselves, the chicken wouldn't either.

Hmm, true. But its not a Chocobo. Just a huge chicken. Or it can be a chocobo, that's cool.

You're thinking "Wall of Chickens." No, this is just a bunch of chickens jumping around, tossing feathers in a localized area.
[B]Originally posted by ciaran:[/B]
No cohort?! Modness I say. Your cohort must be a large or huge chicken mount!
You don't like the Chicken Growth spell? It could work on nuggets, hot wings and fried chicken too.
[B]Originally posted by lordpendragon:[/B]
I agree that the cohort should definitely be included. A heroic chicken Barbarian/Ranger/Fighter would be hilarious.
