View source for Erinys (3.5e Prestige Class)

====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the erinys.

'''{{Anchor|Weapons and Armors proficiency}}:''' An erinys gains no proficiency with weapons or armors.

'''{{Anchor|Spellcasting}}:''' At each level, except the 1st, 4th and 8th level, you gain new spells per day and an increase in caster level (and spells known, if applicable) as if you had also gained a level in a [[SRD:Divine_Spells|divine spellcasting]] class to which you belonged before adding the prestige class level. You do not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained.

'''{{Anchor|Focused Domain}} {{Su}}:''' You gain one of the following domains and your domain power improves. Your domain determines the exact improvement:

-[[SRD:Death Domain (Cleric Domain)|Death]] and [[SRD:Repose Domain|Repose]] domain: you may use your ''death touch'' three times per day and your erinys and favored soul levels stack to determine the d6s you may roll.

-[[SRD:Law Domain (Cleric Domain)|Law]] and Purification: your increased caster level for law or abjuration spells is +2.

-Retribution: you may use strike of vengeance three times per day.

-Wrath: You may exchange 1 point of Wisdom for 1 point of Strength, instead of 2 for 1, and your erinys and favored soul levels stack to determine your cleric level for this power. You may interrupt this power whenever you want and regain its effect up until your daily limit.

'''{{Anchor|Relentless Chase}} {{Ex}}:''' You may follow tracks as if you had the [[SRD:Track|''Track'']] or Urban Tracking<ref>Cityscape</ref> feat. You may use [[SRD:Search (Skill)|Search]] checks to follow tracks instead of [[SRD:Survival|Survival]] or [[SRD:Gather Information (Skill)|Gather Information]] checks and you may use your [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] modifier instead of your [[SRD:Intelligence|Intelligence]] modifier as a bonus on all [[Gather Information]] and [[Search]] checks. You may follow tracks in natural areas as well as urban ones (this feature supersedes the ''Urban Tracking'' feat as well as ''Track'') using [[Gather Information]], [[Search]] or [[Survival]] checks, as appropriate.

If you already have one of the two feats you gain a +4 to skill check to follow tracks and you may take another feat.

'''{{Anchor|Trial of Justice}} {{Su}}:''' Starting at 2nd level you may use the power from Law Devotion<ref>Complete Champion</ref> one time more per half your class level. In addition, you gain your [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]] modifier as bonus damage with weapons or spells against the specific target or targets you are hunting.

'''{{Anchor|Aura of Dreadful Order}} {{Su}}:''' At 3rd level you gain a menacing aura of lawfulness. Enemies of the erinys within 10 feet (3 meters) suffer a -2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. Chaotic creatures in combat with the erinys take double the penalty, even if beyond 10 feet (3 meters). This enhanced penalty applies even to your designed target. 

When chaotic creatures or your target are present, and you know where they are, at least approximately, you gain the effect of the spell [[SRD:Protection from Chaos|''protection from chaos'']] until the encounter it's over. The spell's effects apply against your designed target as well.

'''{{Anchor|Channel Justice}} {{Su}}:''' Starting at 4th level you may channel righteous fury through your body and soul to empower yourself. This class feature stacks with the [[Favored_Soul_In_The_Dungeon_(3.5e_Class)|favored soul]]'s [[Favored_Soul_In_The_Dungeon_(3.5e_Class)#Channel_divinity_I|''Channel divinity'']] class feature and works the same. You gain the next level of ''Channel justice'' at 8th level.

'''{{Anchor|Wings of Nemesis}} {{Ex}}:''' At 5th level you gain a [[SRD:Fly (Rules)|fly speed]] of 60 feet (18 meters) with good maneuverability. You may dismiss and return the wings as a free action. Otherwise it's always in use. This substitutes [[Favored_Soul_In_The_Dungeon_(3.5e_Class)#Spiritual_wings|''Spiritual wings'']].

You also gain the [[SRD:Flyby Attack|''Flyby Attack'']] feat for free. If you already have, it your maneuverability increases by one step.

'''{{Anchor|Weapon of vengeance}} {{Su}}:''' From 6th level your [[SRD:Weapons|weapons]] and [[SRD:Natural Weapons|natural weapons]] gain the [[SRD:Axiomatic|axiomatic special quality]] for free. They lose it if you drop the weapon. This effect applies even to non-chaotic enemies that the erinys has been tasked to punish. If the target is chaotic the weapon inflicts +4d6 instead of +2d6 of damage. This bonus stacks with the [[SRD:Bane (Weapon Enhancement)|bane special quality]] or similar effects.

'''''{{Anchor|Shield of Law}}'' {{Sp}}:''' At 7th level you may use the spell ''[[SRD:Shield of Law|shield of law]]'' as a spell-like ability once per day. Caster level is your caster level or your class level, if higher. The effect of ''shield of law'' applies even against your prescribed target.

'''{{Anchor|Damage Reduction}} {{Su}}:''' At 9th level you gain [[SRD:Damage Reduction|damage reduction]] 10/chaos.

'''{{Anchor|Essence of Justice}}:''' At 20th you become a magical creature. You gain the [[SRD:Outsider|outsider]] type with the [[SRD:Lawful Subtype|lawful subtype]] (though beneficial magical effects still affect you, as if you were a humanoid or what you were before). You gain [[SRD:Darkvision|darkvision]] 60 feet-18 meters-(if you didn't already had it), but no other benefits from the outsider type, unless here described.  Additionally, you gain a +6 to saves against chaotic effects (spells, similar magical effects or other abilities from any source) or used by chaotic creatures or by your target and you add your [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]] modifier as a sacred (or profane) bonus to your [[SRD:AC|AC]] against chaotic creatures or your designed target's attacks (this bonus stacks with other sacred bonuses from your spells, feats or class features). Unlike other outsiders, you can still be brought back from the dead as if you were a member of your previous creature type.
