Class Features
Text
  • Arcanist: The Hanian Guild Mage increases all Arcanist spellcasting and class features as if the character had gained a level in the class at each indicated level.
  • Guild Dues (Ex): The most important task of the Hanian Guild Mages is to keep the few remaining, crumbling, skycities flying. In order to do so, they have to impart part of their arcane energy into vast artefacts housed in the bowels of these creations. Every day that a guild mage is on his home skycity, he must give 25% of his spell points to the artefact as part of his duties. If he fails to do so for more than three days while in his home skycity, unless he receives special dispensation from the head of the guild he is permanently banned from the guild.
  • Repository of Knowledge (Ex): While it is expected that every talented Hanian arcanist belong to his skycity's mage guild, the members of guild do not do so for no reward. A Guild Mage gains the benefit of the Research feat, and when on his home skycity, is always treated as if he had access to a master collection.
  • Historian (Ex): Because of the amount of lore in which Hania is steeped, and how important a role that plays in the culture, it's very common to be found discussing subjects that would otherwise be considered obscure. The Guild Mage treats all Knowledge checks as trained checks, even if the guild mage has no ranks in the specific skill.
  • Sky and Earth (Ex): Hanian skycities are one of the few areas of Arhosa where the Enyainbo portals still function regularly, committed to their long-standing work of transporting people from the few remaining skycities to the small communities that support them. While generally access to the gate is restricted to only those who need to use it, in his home skycity, a guild mage can travel through the gateway without impediment. Because of his familiarity with gateways, whenever he attempts to use a malfunctioning gateway he receives a +10 bonus on Gateway Malfunction rolls.
  • Request Aid (Ex): It is incumbent upon guild mages to protect their community, and one another. Once per month, a guild mage can request assistance from his guild. He can either choose to have a magical item crafted for him at half the cost it would normally take, or he can gain a temporary cohort for up to one week. Treat the cohort as per the leadership feat, except that it is always a Hanian Arcanist. If the cohort dies assisting the guild mage on a task deemed unworthy by the guild elders, he can never again request a cohort, and may be banned from the guild.
