//WIP Fluff// // thisProvide reason for the class, something with improving ties with the elements and gleaning powers from them through the use of wildshape.// Elementalists favor interactions with the elements and their different manifestations throughout the planes. They are druids who have spent “too much time” in the Elemental form. It is not uncommon for an Elementalist to spend days or even weeks in an elemental form, or to shift from form to form regularly, without returning to whatever humanoid form he started with. ==== Requirements ==== **Skills:** Knowledge (nature) 4 ranks, Survival 6 ranks **Special:** * Wild shape class is ment asfeature, allowing you to shift into an Elemental shape. * Must speak at least one of the following languages: Auran, Terran, Ignan, or Aquan * Must have come in contact with a prestigeraw expression of an element (visiting and elemental plane, an ecounter with a primal elemental, etc.) ==== Class Skills ==== The Elementalist's class for Daeskills are: Climb (Str), Handle Animal (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (the planes) (Int), Knowledge (geography) (Int), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Perception (Wis), Ride (Dex), Sense Motive (Wis), Survival (Wis), and Swim (Str).

Furthermore, he can communicate with other creatures of the same kind while in wild shape, as long as such creatures are normally capable of communicating with each other using natural methods. ---- Elemental Shape (Su) ---- The elementalist’sElementalists' class skills are: Climb (Str), Handle Animal (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (geography) (Int), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Perception (Wis), Ride (Dex), Sense Motive (Wis), Survival (Wis), and Swim (Str). //Skill Ranks at Each Level: 4 + Int modifier.// // Hit Die: d8.//levels stack with other class levels that grant Wild shape for the purpose of determining access to Elemental forms, as well as the total number of uses of Wild shape per day. ---- TableFast Wildshape (Su) ---- ^^ Level ^^ BAB ^^ Fort ^^ Ref ^^ Will ^^ Special ^^ SpellsAs you grow more accustomed to the different forms, you are able to transform yourself more easily. Using Wildshape to change into an new form now takes a move-equivalent action. //Modeled after Fast Wildshape feat - You gain the ability to use wild shape as a move-equivalent action. (complete divine, pag. 81 , dnd 3.5)// ---- Elemental Empathy (Ex) ---- An Elementalist can improve the attitude of a non-sentient creatures of the elemental subtype. This ability functions just like a Diplomacy check to improve the attitude of a person. The Elementalist rolls 1d20 and adds his Elementalist and druid classlevel and his Charisma modifier to determine the elemental empathy check result. To use elemental empathy, the Elementalist and the elemental must be able to study each other, which means that they must be within 30 feet of one another under normal conditions. Generally, influencing an elemental in this way takes 1 minute, but as with influencing people, it might take more or less time. You also gain a +4 bonus on diplomacy checks versus sentient creatures with the earth, air, water of fire subtype. ---- Elemental Traveler (SP) ---- At 6th level, the Elementalist gains the ability to travel between planes much easier and can cast Planeshift once per Day || || 1st || +0 || +2 || +0 || +2 || Shifterday, using our Elementalists' caster level as caster level. ---- Gargantuan Elemental Shape (Su) ---- At 8th level, the Elementalist can also use wild shape to change into a Gargantuan elemental.
