Message: <blockquote data-quote="the Jester" data-source="post: 1620668" data-attributes="member: 1210">This is my homebrewed healer prc.  Yeah, yeah, I know the Minis HB has a healer base class, but whatever, I don't have that book anyhow. <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=":)" />HEALERThe healer reveres all life.  She possesses strong healing magic as well as great skill with first aid and long term care.  Her knowledge of poison and disease is exceptional, and she can treat many conditions that would defeat the skills of others.  Most healers are clerics, though bard and druid healers are not unknown.  Other classes are unlikely to become healers without multiclassing.Hit Die: d8Prerequisites: Heal (8 ranks).  Skill Focus (Heal).  Must be able to cast cure serious wounds.  Must have stabilized a dying creature at least once.  Must have cast a healing spell on a total stranger or enemy at least twice.    Class Skills: Concentration (con), Craft (int), Diplomacy (cha), Heal (wis), Profession (healer, midwife or similar) (wis), Sense Motive (wis).  Skill points per level: 2 + int bonus.    Base Attack: Poor (as wizard).Good Saves: Fort and Will.Poor Saves: Ref.Level- Special Abilities1--Expert Healing, +1 caster level2--Merciful Strike, +1 caster level3--Superior Healing4--+1 caster level5--Purity of Body, +1 caster level6--+1 caster level7--Restorative Touch, +1 caster level8--+1 caster level9--Dispel Damage, +1 caster level10--Supreme HealingCLASS FEATURESWeapon and Armor Proficiency: The healer gains no weapon or armor proficiencies.Expert Healing (Ex and Su): The healer’s abilities with healing magic and with the Heal skill both increase significantly.  Any time the healer spontaneously casts a healing spell (if a cleric) or applies metamagic feats to a healing spell (if a bard) the spell’s casting time no longer increases to a full round (allowing a bardic healer to quicken healing spells).  The healer can, however, choose to extend any healing spell’s casting time to a full round in order to add her wis bonus to the amount it heals.  This is a supernatural ability that will work on any spell that heals real, subdual or ability damage, and that normally has a casting time of 1 action (or 1 free action).    As an exceptional ability, a healer can attempt to make a Heal check, DC20, to heal 1 hp of damage to a freshly-inflicted wound (within the last minute).  This is a full round action, during which time neither healer nor recipient can move.  This ability works once per wound.  When the healer makes a long-term care check with a roll of 20 or higher, the recipient will regain extra hp equal to her wis bonus.Merciful Strike (Ex): The healer suffers no penalties when attacking for subdual damage in combat.Superior Healing (Su): Starting at 3rd level, all the healer’s spells heal an extra amount of damage equal to her wis bonus.    Purity of Body (Su): The healer is immune to non-magical disease.Restorative Touch (Su): The healer’s touch is soothing and restorative, and will heal 1d4 points of ability damage to one ability and 2d6 points of subdual damage.  The healer can use this power as often as desired but each creature can only benefit from it once per day.    Dispel Damage (Sp): Once per day per point of cha bonus, the healer can create a magical emanation around herself to a range of 30’.  Within this emanation, all damage that is being inflicted to hit points, ability scores, and subdual scores is reduced by 10 points.  This lasts for a number of rounds equal to the healer’s wis bonus.Supreme Healing (Su or Ex): The healer’s spells heal more damage than another caster’s would.  Any spell that heals hit points, subdual or ability damage uses the next higher die type; for instance, a cure light wounds spell cast by a 10th-level healer heals 1d10 + 5 + wis bonus points of damage.  This is a supernatural ability.Using her healing skills, a healer can do any of the following: Heal 1d4 points of subdual damage once per creature per hour (DC20); treat broken bones or similar critical wound effects such as hamstring to remove a penalty to the use of a body part (DC25); heal 1d3 points of ability damage just inflicted by poison (must be used before secondary damage occurs; DC30); or destroy parasitic infections, such as slaad eggs, rot grubs, green slime, gibberslugs, etc.)  This is a full round action and the DC is 30.  As this is an invasive procedure, it deals 1d6 points of damage to the subject.  If the healer’s natural roll on her heal check is a 3 or less the healer must make the appropriate save against contracting the infection herself, if applicable.  This is an exceptional ability.</blockquote>
