The shirefolk that walk this path typically pick a subject area to specialize and then do everything they can to learn as much about it as possible. Often this involves trying to find out some fact or item of significance that is hidden away in ruins or in some estate. Their pursuit and understanding of their subject area(s) gives them unique insight into the world and the way that it works.Lore Keepers are most often found in the company of others that are helping them to acquire knowledge or artifacts of significance to their lore. Lore Keepers know that they cannot be good at everything and that they need help. Help from those that can heal, sneak, fight and other things that they cannot. They use their bardic music abilities, knowledge, and spells to help their companions. Their more aggressive spell list and understanding greatly helps their chance of survival.Hit Die: d6[h2]Prerequisites[/h2]Race:&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; HalflingAlignment:&nbsp; &nbsp; Chaotic Good, Neutral Good, NeutralSkills:&nbsp; &nbsp; One Knowledge at 8 ranks and another knowledge at 5 ranks&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Perform (Oratory) 8 ranks; Any 2 other Bard skills at 5 ranks&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Must speak Commmon, Halfling, and Draconic&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Be able to cast 2nd level&nbsp; spells which must include:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Comprehend Languages (1) and Cure Moderate Wounds (2)Feats:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Barrowshire Lore Keeper*(see below) and&nbsp; Obscure Lore (Complete Adventurer)Special:&nbsp; &nbsp; Bardic Knowledge, Bardic Music, Born in Barrowshire[h2]Table[/h2]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Saves&nbsp; &nbsp; Lvl BAB&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; F/R/W&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Special&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Spells per Day1&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +0&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +0/+2/+2&nbsp; &nbsp; Bardic Music, Bardic Knowledge,&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Lore Keeper Knowledge&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; +1 spell caster level&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +1&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +0/+3/+3&nbsp; &nbsp; Lore Keeper Spell List&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +1 spell caster level3&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +2&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +1/+3/+3&nbsp; &nbsp; Lore Keeper's Song&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; +1 spell caster level4&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +3&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +1/+4/+4&nbsp; &nbsp; Lore Keeper Training&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; +1 spell caster level5&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +3&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; +1/+4/+4&nbsp; &nbsp; Lore Keeper Insight 1/day&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; +1 spell caster level[h2]Class Skills[/h2]Skill Points: 6 + Int modifierThe Lore Keeper's class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are:Balance (Dex), Bluff (Cha), Climb (Str), Concentration (Con), Craft (Int), Decipher Script (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Disguise (Cha), Gather Information (Cha), Hide (Dex), Jump (Str), Knowledge (All taken individually) (Int), Listen (Wis), Move Silently (Dex), Perform (Cha) Profession (Wis), Search (Int), Sense Motive (Wis), Speak Language (n/a), Spellcraft (Int), Spot (Wis), Swim (Str), Tumble (Dex)[h2]Class Features[/h2]All of the following are class features of the Lore Keeper:Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A Lore Keeper gain no proficiency with any weapons or armors.Spells per Day/Spells Known: When a new Lore Keeper level is gained, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if she had also gained a level in a spellcasting class she belonged to before she added the prestige class, and that meets the casting&nbsp; requistes.
