Gambler
There are those who gamble and there are gamblers. A gambler is not just a lucky man looking for the next big win or an unlucky man looking for his big break. A gambler has gained an innate understanding of the world of chance and has learned to focus the infinite possibilities luck gives. Whether their power is granted by trickster gods or them tapping into a type of wild magic that is not quite understood outside of their circle, gamblers are a force to be reckoned with.
Making a Gambler
A gambler is a ranged utility character. He can inflict a large amount of damage with his card throw ability. He can also disable opponents using various abilities such as his flashy shuffle. Gamblers play differently than most classes because they use a deck of cards instead of dice for most of their abilities. A clever gambler will make use of their ability to manipulate their deck of cards.

Class Features
Copy Pasta from paleowiki. I will be modifying this heavily.
All of the following are class features of the Gambler.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Gamblers are proficient with light armor, all simple weapons, and Throwing Cards.
Luck Pool: Gamblers are masters of manipulating luck. A gambler has a pool of 2 luck points. Luck points can be spent to power the gambler's class abilities. Luck feats that add luck rerolls per day instead add luck points to the gambler's luck pool. Likewise, a gambler can spend a point from his luck pool to activate a luck feat or make a luck reroll (each point in his luck pool counts as a luck reroll for all intents and purposes).
A gambler can regain 1 luck point per full round he spends reshuffling his deck of cards. Any cards that have been used by class abilities are added back into his deck at this time.
Deck of Cards: The gambler carries a deck of throwing cards that he has magically attuned with. This deck of cards allows him to use his gambler class abilities. The deck is a standard deck of cards plus two jokers.
The deck's magic nature makes it different from a standard deck of cards. The gambler can make the deck appear in his hands as a free action, regardless of where they are. When anyone other than the gambler uses the deck, it appears to be all blank cards. In fact, the gambler cannot cheat and stack the order of the cards ahead of time because they appear blank to him as well.
The face values of the cards as they relate to the gambler's abilities can be found in the table below.
Card Type | Face Value |
---|---|
Ace | 1 |
Two | 2 |
Three | 3 |
Four | 4 |
Five | 5 |
Six | 6 |
Seven | 7 |
Eight | 8 |
Nine | 9 |
Ten | 10 |
Jack | 11 |
Queen | 12 |
King | 13 |
Joker | 15 |
Whenever the gambler uses a card from his deck, the card disappears until he has spent a minute shuffling his deck to replenish his luck pool.
Use a standard deck of playing cards when you play a gambler character and use it to mimic the class abities (shuffle the deck, look at the top cards with peek, etc.).
Card Throw (Su): As a standard action, a gambler can magically charge a card from his deck and throw them at an opponent. The card turns into a ball of energy while it flies towards its target and deals extra damage equal to its face value of an energy type listed below. This ability costs 1 luck point to use.
- Spades: Acid
- Clubs: Cold
- Diamonds: Lightning
- Hearts: Fire
- No Suit (Jokers): Force
At 5th level, the gambler can throw 2 cards with this ability, at 10th level 3 cards, at 15th level 4 cards, and at 20th level 5 cards.
At 10th level, it deals extra damage equal to twice its face value.
At 15th level, it deals extra damage equal to triple its face value.
At 10th level, it deals extra damage equal to quadruple its face value.
Peek (Su): As a swift action that costs 1 luck point, the gambler can look at the top three cards of his deck and switch the order of the cards. At 6th, 12th, and 18th level, the gambler can look at and rearrange one extra card with this ability. The cards last in this order for 5 minutes and then the order is randomized again.
Flashy Shuffle (Su): At second level, as a standard action that costs 1 luck point, the gambler can make a magical effect with his deck of cards against one or more creatures in close range. He draws a single card from his deck and can choose an effect based on the face value. He then shuffles the remaining cards in his deck (randomizing the order if peek was used).
- Dazzle any number of creatures within range (any face value).
- Facinate any number of creatures within range (face value of 4 or greater).
- Daze one creature (face value of 7 or greater).
- Confuse one creature (face value of 10 or greater).
- Stun one creature (face value of 14 or greater).
The target gets to make a Will save DC 10 + 1/2 the gambler's HD + the gambler's charisma modifier to avoid the effect. The gambler can continue to shuffle his deck as a move action each round to prolong the effect (that does not cost additional luck points), but the target gets a new saving throw each round at the original DC. This is a mind-affecting enchantment effect.
Hedge Bets (Su): At third level, the gambler has learned to give himself the opportunity for a second chance when his luck runs out. Whenever he fails an attack roll, saving throw, or skill check after rerolling it with a luck reroll, he can, as a free action, spend 1 luck point to try to increase his roll. First he must draw a card. He then must announce whether the next card has a higher or lower face value. He draws the card to check. If he was correct, he can reroll the attack roll, saving throw, or skill check again (taking the new result even if it is lower).
Flick of the Wrist (Ex): At fourth level, the gambler adds his dexterity modifier to damage dealt with his Card Throw. This damage is applied to each card, but it is not multiplied on a critical hit.
Bonus Luck Feat: At 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th level, the gambler gets a bonus feat with the luck descriptor.
Fortune's Friend (Ex): At 7th level, the gambler rolls 1d6 and adds it to the result of any luck reroll he makes.
Deck of Illusions (Su): At 8th level, as a standard action that costs 2 luck points, the gambler can draw a card from his deck and use it as if he had drawn a card from a Deck of Illusions.
Dispelling Card (Su): At 9th level, as a standard action that costs 1 luck point, the gambler can throw a card at a creature and, in addition to damage, have it cast a targeted Dispel Magic on the creature if it hits. The caster level is equal to 1/2 the gambler's HD + the face value of the card.
Up the Sleeve (Su): At 11th level, whenever a gambler uses Peek, he can take one of the cards and hold it up his sleeve instead of putting it back on top of his deck. Whenever he would draw a card for any other gambler ability, he can instead use the card up his sleeve. The card returns to the deck if it isn't used in 5 minutes. He can only have one card up his sleeve at a time.
Aces High (Ex): At 12th level, the gambler's aces now have a face value of 14.
Exploding Dice (Ex): At 13th level, whenever the gambler rolls the maximum result on a die for a damage roll, he rolls the die again and adds the result. He continues doing this until any result other than the maximum result is rolled.
Loved by Lady Luck (Ex): At 14th level, whenever the gambler uses a luck reroll and the reroll succeeds, he gains back 1 luck point.
Ace in the Hole (Ex): At 17th level, as a free action that costs 1 luck point, a gambler can search his deck and put an ace up his sleeve. He shuffles his deck afterwards.
Fifty-Two Card Pickup (Ex): At 19th level, a gambler can spend a full-round action to perform his ultimate technique. Each enemy within a 120 ft. cone is hit with several cards. The gambler must deal out 1 card for each target, starting from the closest target to the farthest target (the gambler can choose the order if two targets are an equal distance away). He the repeats this process until all of the cards in his deck are exhausted.
