Revised Fiend Hunter and Fiendbane PrCs

[Merlion]

Ok here is my final version(hopefuly) of my 2 anti-fiend prestige classes.


The Fiend Hunter
The Fiend Hunter is an individual who has devoted himself to finding and destroying those creatures who embody the essence of evil: Fiends. Through special physical and spiritual training and devotion they learn to greatly enhance their prowess against these creatures, as well as their ability to withstand their attacks. An individual must have battled and defeated the legions of the Lower Planes in order to be accepted into the training necessary to learn the Fiend Hunters techniques. Many are solitary, keeping their eyes and ears out for signs of fiendish encroachment. Some gather in bands or search out other adventurers to aid them in their quest. The same ones who hold the secrets of the Fiend Hunters for warriors who wish to eradicate the forces of darkness also train spellcasters in the ways of the Fiendbane, and it is common to see teams consisting of a Fiend Hunter and a Fiendbane in areas where lower planar activity is common.
