[QUOTE="Corey, post: 633772, member: 140"] Wearers of Black Unimpeded by most of the moral constraints generally imposed by serving Avasara (God), the Wearers of Black live among the world’s degenerates and filth. While acting as traders in illicit goods, prostitutes, or in other unsavory roles they seek out rumor of those who have sold their souls to the Abyss (Hell). After investigating rumor and confirming it as fact, they strike- without mercy or conscience- until all that is infected by Sin (Lucifer) is eradicated. After finishing their work, members always send their investigative documentation to the local Sanctum (Church) by way of justifying any executions or other deeds they may have performed within the Diocese. (DM’s Note: While looking this over think of the Pope’s agent in Brotherhood of the Wolf.) Requirements Alignment: Lawful Neutral Base Attack Bonus: +4 Gather Information: 4 ranks Knowledge (Religion): 4 ranks Intimidate: 1 Rank Special: Swear a powerful oath to protect Creation from Abyssal influence “by any means Avasara requires.” Benefits BAB: Starts at 0, +1 per level Saves: Fort and Will good, Reflex bad Hit Die: d8 Class Skills: Balance, Bluff, Climb, Decipher Script, Diplomacy, Disable Device, Disguise, Forgery, Gather Information, Hide, Innuendo, Intimidate, Jump, Knowledge (religion), Listen, Move Silently, Open Lock, Pick Pocket, Read Lips, Search, Sense Motive, and Spot.

This bonus increases to +4 at 3rd level, +6 at 5th level, +8 at 7th level, and +10 at 10th level. (Modified Ranger’s favorite enemy) Unremarkable investigator (Ex): Wearers of Black do everything possible to make themselves utterly plain and forgettable. Deceitful behavior is a daily practice. They can always elect to take 10 when opposing others sense motive checks. Long hours spent studying and interacting with Sin’s agents result in a Wearer of Black gaining a +2 bonus to Bluff, Sense Motive, Listen, Spot and Disguise checks when dealing with servants of Sin.

Implacable hunt can be used against different targets as long as each of those individual targets is part of a group that is, in total, the Wearer of Black’s target for her current mission. (Defenders of the Faith) Discern lies (Sp): A Wearer of Black of 8th level or higher can use discern lies as a spell-like ability three times per day. (Defenders of the Faith) Learn the Truth (Su): By touching a creature that has lied to her, a Wearer of Black of 8th level or higher can force the creature to tell the truth. The creature can make a Will save (DC 10 + the character’s WOB level + the Wearer of Black’s Charisma modifier) to resist this mind-affecting compulsion effect.
