Holy Witch
A holy witch derives her powers from consorting with holy powers, such as kami, angels and other good outsiders. They are specialists of using ofuda to perform exorcism and defeat evil spirits.
Class: Witch
Level: 1st
Replaces: Spellcasting, Familiar or 1st-level hex
Benefit: A holy witch gain the following class features:
Language: A holy witch starts with celestial as a bonus language.
Patron: A holy witch cannot select a patron that grant a spell with the evil descriptor (such as the Nightmares and Plague patrons).
A holy witch cannot select the cackle hex, instead she can choose the shaman's chant hex.
Spellcasting: A holy witch does not prepare her spells, instead she spontaneously cast spells like a Sorcerer. She automatically adds her patron spells to her spell known at the listed level under her patron. A holy witch regains her spells by communing in meditation with her patron quietly for 15 minutes after resting.
A holy witch add cleric spells with the [good] descriptor to the witch spell list, and the following spells at the listed level: purify food and drink (0th), bless weapon, aura pulse, detect evil (1st), sanctuary (1st), shield of faith (1st), purge spirit (2nd), wall of paper (3rd), dismissal (4th), thaumaturgic circle (4th), banishment (6th). If the spell is already on the witch list, use whichever level is lower. Due to her obligations to her patron, a holy witch cannot cast [evil] spells, much like if she was a good-aligned cleric.
An holy witch spells counts as divine spell for the purpose of items and feats, but not for prestige class, arcane spell failure or other purposes.
Ofuda (Su): This ability functions as the Kami Medium's Ofuda ability except that it affect the witch's spellcasting rather than medium spellcasting. Unlike a kami medium, the witch may cast her spells normally without using an ofuda if she wishes so. Instead of counting as a holy symbol, an ofuda can be used to replace any material components or focus which cost 10 GP or less.
This ability alters spellcasting and replaces familiar or the hex gained at 1st level.
