You state that the AC of the KNE can be "loaned" to persons who are wounded. Is it really *that* specific, or can the AC be loaned to persons who are generally in need of it, without necessarily having to be wounded? Also, when the recipient's AC improves, does the KNE's diminish? Lastly, I think it's a cool concept, but slightly weak. It starts at 2nd level with 1 point and can go as high as 5 points at 18th level?! I'd work it so that it'd be a point every two levels with no limit. Thus, 20th level would see up to 10 points being "loaned" and so on. I mean, at 18th level, who even hangs out with persons who'd benefit from a measely 5 points, ya' know?I'm really digging the "bonding" thing. However, why the limit of two persons? If they can bond to more than one person simultaneously, why not just have a limit of one person every ten levels? It's not as if the power would be abused by all those 50th level Knight-errants running around. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":-)" />I agree with John Q. Mayhem about the d12. It seems that the KNE is in a big hurry to give away his hit points. With a d12, he'll at least be that much more confident that he'll have some hps left for himself!I'm a little hazy on the "shield of faith". The math involved is something like 2/-damage reduction. I'm not really a damage reduction expert (heck, I've yet to play 3.0!), so could you clarify for someone as ignorant as myself? Thanks!Martyrdom I'm having difficulties with. Now, I can fully understand the KNE, after learning that a companion failed his saving throw versus a dragon's breath weapon, possessing the ability to state that, in this case, the KNE actually dove in front of the blast, thus shielding the companion and enabling an automatic save. I can understand the aforementioned scenario IF the KNE happened to be within adequate enough range of his companion, or very close to the dragon's mouth. However, I'm really not getting the 25 foot intervals thing. Is this a spell-like ability? You see, "protect" seems like a well-written mechanic as in "the KNE strategically positions himself in such a way as to lend some of his armour to his companion". Makes perfect sense, and the question of magic need never arise. However, martyrdom? I'm just not getting it.Finally.........great presentation! There has to be about 10 classes per week posted on these boards. Some I read, others not. Some I just download and sava, yet never bother to read. But because you elected to use such an artistic medium for your class, I really found myself *wanting* to read it more than other classes that aren't so endowed. Sure, there were two or three grammatical errors and the picture should have been at the top of the second column and not the first (I started reading at the top of the second column!), but it's the thought that counts! So please, don't let mean people like Nifft put you off. Definitely stick to the fancy font & graphics presentation!</blockquote>
