Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Psion Loremaster.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Psion Loremasters gain no proficiency with any weapon or armor.

Manifesting: At each level, you gain power points per day, an increase in manifester level, and new powers as if you had also gained a level in a manifesting 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. If you had more than one manifesting class before becoming a Psion Loremaster, you must decide to which class to add each level for the purpose of determining powers, manifester level, and powers known.

Secret (Ex): At 1st level and every two levels higher than 1st (3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th), the psion loremaster chooses one secret from the table below. Her level plus Intelligence modifier determines the total number of secrets she can choose. She can’t choose the same secret twice.

Lore (Ex): At 2nd level, a psion loremaster gains the ability to know legends or information regarding various topics, just as a bard can with bardic knowledge. The loremaster adds her level and her Intelligence modifier to the lore check, which functions otherwise exactly like a bardic knowledge check.

Bonus Languages (Ex): A psion loremaster can choose any new bonus language at 4th and 8th level.

Greater Lore (Ex): At 6th level, a psion loremaster gains the ability to understand magic items, as with the identify spell.

True Lore (Ex): At 10th level, once per day a psion loremaster can use her knowledge to gain the effect of a legend lore spell or an analyze dweomer spell.
