CLASS TRAITS


Role: Leader. Your mastery of the Elemental Chaos

 allows you to toy with the very nature of matter.
You can repair the broken bones of an ally, or

 incinerate your foes by turning the gentle winds
into a raging fire. You lean towards striker as a
secondary role.

 Power Source: Elemental. You channel the entropic
and creative forces of the Elemental Chaos directly

 through your body, surviving only through your
masterful control, strong body, and impeccable
will.

 Key Abilities: Intelligence, Wisdom, Constitution


 Armor Proficiencies: Cloth, leather

Weapon Proficiencies: Simple melee, shortbow,
longbow

 Implements: Brands, rods, wands
Bonus to Defense: +1 Fortitude, +1 Will

 Hit Points at 1st Level: 14 + Constitution score
Hit Points per Level Gained: 5

 Healing Surges per Day: 8 + Constitution modifier

Trained Skills: Religion. From the class skills list


 below, choose four more trained skills at 1st level.
Class skills: Arcana (Intelligence), Diplomacy

 (Cha), Dungeoneering (Wisdom), Endurance
(Con), Heal (Wisdom), History (Intelligence),
Insight (Wisdom), Nature (Wisdom), Religion

 (Intelligence), Streetwise (Charisma)


 Class Features: Chaotic Nature, Natural Terrain,

Primordial Spirit, Renewing Breath




The Primordials once wrought the very essence of the
earth from the chaos of nothingness. Like they once did,

 you wield the power to directly mold the elements with
finesse and explicit intent to create the tools you require
to perform your works. All architects use the building

 blocks of life as their instruments though whether you
do so to protect and defend your allies, or to cause

 excruciating suffering to your enemies is up to you.
Many architects grow up in abject loneliness, not
knowing from whence their power came, and being

 misunderstood by those around them. There is a small
surviving school of architects that existed before the

 great purging, perhaps you were found by them early and
grow up in their care.
Regardless of how you were raised, you were born

 with an innate connection to the very power that drove
the Primordials. Yours is a path to greatness, if you can
survive the turmoil that such power brings.

ARCHITECT CLASS FEATURES
Architects have the following class features.
CHAOTIC NATURE
Whenever you finish an extended rest you must roll a
d10 to determine a damage type.
d10 Damage Type
1 Acid
2 Cold
3 Fire
4 Force
5 Lightning
6 Necrotic
7 Poison
8 Psychic
9 Radiant
10 Thunder
Any enemy within 5 squares of you has its resistance
lowered and its vulnerability increased (the must
already be vulnerable or have a condition that makes
them vulnerable) to that damage type by 5 until your
next extended rest. This effect can only occur once per
round. The effect increases to 10 at 11th level and 15 at
21st level.
N ATURAL T ERRAIN
Any difficult terrain that is caused by natural means (i.e.
rubble, tall grass, vines, etc.) does not impede your
movement. Difficult terrain caused by magical forces or
creatures, like a spider's web, still impedes you as
normal.

 ARCHITECT OVERVIEW
Characteristics: As an elemental leader, you have
some similarities with your arcane counterpart, the bard.
Both of you are leaders that can do decent mid-ranged
damage, but that is where your similarities end. Bards
ply their way with song and music, while you directly
control the forces of the material world to do your
bidding. You heal through directly curing wounds, and
can transform your weapons into raw elemental forces to
destroy your foe.
Religion: Religion is a touchy issue with those who
follow the path of the Primordials. While very few who
wield Elemental power are devoted to the cause of a
particular Primordial, few gods will welcome you.
Among those that occasionally do welcome architects
are: Ioun, Melora, the Raven Queen and Sheanine.
Races: The Sylph are the preeminent architects, their
elemental nature naturally leading them down a path of
its control as architects of war. Deva, although often
associated with the gods of the astral sea, have a natural
affinity with the nature of the world itself and
occasionally they will take up the mantle of an architect
of peace. Dwarves and Qallupilluk also make excellent
architects.

 

PRIMORDIAL SPIRIT
Your inherent connection to the Primordials and the
Elemental Chaos manifests itself in how your powers are
used. Choose one of the following options.
Spirit of Creation: The first time during an encounter
that an ally within 20 squares of you becomes bloodied
they regain hit points equal to your Wisdom modifier.
Spirit of Entropy: Whenever you hit a bloodied
creature the next attack made against that creature
receives a bonus to the attack and damage roll equal to
your Constitution modifier. If the creature is not hit by
the end of your next turn, the bonus is lost.
RENEWING BREATH
You gain the renewing breath power. By channeling the
creative powers of the Primordials, you bestow
increased energy and resilience on your allies
IMPLEMENTS
Architects can wield a number of different implements to
aid them in their elemental control. They can wield rods,
wands and can channel through an elemental brand
(page 25), a special kind of implement that is only usable
by those who have the ability to channel the Elemental
Chaos. When you wield an implement you can add its
enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and the damage
rolls of architect powers and architect paragon path
powers that have the implement keyword. Without an
implement, you can still use these powers.

TRANSFIGURATION AND TERRAIN
Thematically, the architect uses the transfiguration of the
world around her to achieve the fantastical feats that she
accomplishes. Mechanistically, a number of these powers
are associated with the transfiguration (page 25) and
terrain (page 25) keywords.
Transfigurations require a certain focus in order to
work. Many of the architect's powers use arrows as a
focus to create elemental bolts of fire or ice. These arrows
are transformed completely into the element and cannot
be retrieved from a corpse.
They can also perform limited terrain alterations.
Powers with the terrain keyword function similar to
zones, but unlike zones, they are often indiscriminate
and do not fade after a time. They are physical alterations
to the world itself and remain as such, unless another
creature with similar capabilities exercises their own
strength to force it back. As such they are often more
limited in scope then zones.

CREATING AN ARCHITECT
You can select any assortment of powers for your
character, but architects naturally fall into two basic
groups: the Architect of Peace and the Architect of War.
All architects rely heavily on Intelligence. Architects
also benefit from having high Constitution and Wisdom,
though which one you rely on more will depend on your
choice of class features and powers.


ARCHITECT OF PEACE
You use your mastery of the elemental components of
matter to lead you’re allies in battle; physically curing
and repairing wounds, and enchanting your allies with
the powers of the Elemental Chaos. Make Intelligence
your highest score, as it influences a vast majority of
your powers. Choose Wisdom as your second highest to
increase your ability to heal your allies and grant free
healing if you choose Spirit of Creation as your
Primordial Spirit, followed by Constitution to allow
you to resist your entropic curse. Select powers that
heal, aid your allies and allow them to maneuver into
more advantageous position.

 Suggested Class Feature: Spirit of Creation
Suggested Feat:
Suggested Skills: Arcana, Endurance, Heal,
Insight
Suggested At-Will Powers: resilient skin,
sand's cunning
Suggested Encounter Power: chaotic conduit
Suggested Daily Power: chasing the flame


ARCHITECT OF WAR
You can transform even the most innocent object into a
tool of your opponent's demise. You specialize in
turning ordinary arrows into streaking bolts of
lightning or a viscous ooze that restricts movement and
burns flesh. Make Intelligence you’re highest score so
that you can strike precisely and heavily, followed by
Constitution as it will allow a number of your attacks to
hit harder. You lean towards striker as a secondary role.

 Suggested Class Feature: Spirit of Entropy
Suggested Feat:
Suggested Skills: Arcana, Dungeoneering,
Endurance, History
Suggested At-Will Powers: cinder bolt, stone
fist
Suggested Encounter Power: heat fever
Suggested Daily Power: rain of arrows
ARCHITECT POWERS
The architect, like other elemental classes, uses her body
as a conductor for the entropic forces of the Elemental
Chaos. As such, your powers are called conduits.
CLASS FEATURES
Each architect has the power renewing breath.

GEOMANCER



"I

earth
herself!

My
unrelenting
attack
will
be
your
demise!"


CLASS TRAITS


Role: Striker. By using the elements of the earth you
target your foes and relentlessly attack them, until
they can no longer stand. Your geomancy allows
you to hit foes between your normal strikes,
leading you to controller as a likely secondary
role.
Power Source: Elemental. You wield the elemental
forces of the Elemental Chaos with an artist's flare.
Your ability to channel the powers of the elements
through the earth around you is unparalleled.
Key Abilities: Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence

Armor Proficiencies: Cloth, leather, hide

Weapon Proficiencies: Simple melee
Implements: Brands
Bonus to Defense: +2 Will

Hit Points at 1st Level: 15 + Constitution score

Hit Points per Level Gained: 6
Healing Surges per Day: 6 + Constitution modifier

Trained Skills: From the class skills list below, choose

three trained skills at 1st level. Class skills:
Acrobatics (Dexterity), Athletics (Strength), Bluff
(Charisma), Dungeoneering (Wisdom), Endurance
(Constitution), Intimidate (Charisma), Perception
(Wisdom), Stealth (Dexterity), Thievery
(Dexterity)

Class Features: Channel of Arms, Elemental Brand,

Elemental Soul

You were born with a special connection to the earth.

Not a connection with the spirits, or nature like those of
the primal persuasion; the earth itself, the physical
rudiments of the world. You have a control over them
that borders on muscle reflex. Without thinking, you can
raise a tide to wash away your foes; open the earth to
swallow them; or command a raging fire to consume
them.
From whence this connection arises you many not
know or understand. You have some bond with
primordial forces that shaped the earth, but you are
neither a devotee nor servant of the Primordials
themselves. Your powers do not come through worship
of these pseudo-Gods but through your own connection
to the powers they wield.
Perhaps, in time, you may come to wield these abilities
with such force that the Primordials themselves may
tremble at your footsteps.

GEOMANCER CLASS FEATURES
Geomancers have the following class features.
CHANNEL OF ARMS
At the beginning of every encounter you must role a d6.
The outcome of your roll determines the damage type of
your weapon for that encounter.
d10 Damage Type
1 Acid
2 Cold
3 Fire
4 Lightning
5 Thunder
6 Poison
You also gain access to the channel of arms encounter
power that allows you to re-roll your power type. Also,
once per encounter, as a minor action, you can imbue all
adjacent allies with your current damage type. Allies so
imbued do that damage type with weapon powers until
the end of your next turn.
ELEMENTAL SCAR
You have the elemental scar power.

 GEOMANCER OVERVIEW
Characteristics: Geomancers are a unique type of
elemental striker. You are a short to melee-ranged striker
and are quite different from either the warlock or the
sorcerer. Your range is more restrictive and you may do
less damage outright, but you have many of abilities that
allow you to do damage throughout the entire round.
Religion: Your powers are more easily disguised and
less overtly related to the Elemental Chaos then others;
though many geomancers aspire do aspire to be as
powerful as the Primordials. Others turn their powers
towards the service of the Gods. Common gods that are
worship are: Ioun, Melora, Moradin and Sheanine.
Races: Consuming geomancers are a natural fit for the
Raróg, while Eladrin often make excellent encompassing
geomancers. The Sylph are often found as geomancers of
either persuasion.
GEOMANCY


Geomancy refers to the unique control over the earth that
this class has. All of their encounter powers have the
geomancy keyword followed by a qualifier
GEOMANCY (page 24). Geomancers can use these
powers to do additional damage to nearby enemies in
between their normal turns, as reactions to actions taken
by those enemies.
8
 

ELEMENTAL SOUL
Your innate connection to the Elemental world
emphasizes certain Elemental connections over others.
You may be connected with the consuming nature of fire,
targeting one enemy and attacking them until they are
finished. Or you may feel closer to the all-encompassing
air, gathering around the battlefield and targeted
multiple foes.
Choose one of the following options. Your choice
provides bonuses to certain geomancer powers, as
detailed in those powers.
The Fire that Consumes: You gain a +1 bonus to
attack rolls with weapons that you are proficient with,
and you deal extra damage with your Elemental brand
equal to your Constitution modifier.
In addition, you gain the Weapon Proficiency feat as a
bonus feat and can choose between the following
weapons: battleaxe, handaxe, scimitar, longsword,
shortsword. At 11th level you gain the Weapon
Proficiency feat again and can choose another weapon
from the list above or the katar or bastard sword. At 21st
level you gain the Weapon Proficiency feat again and
can choose from any of the weapons listed here.
The Air that Encompasses: You can hold a one-
handed weapon in your off hand as if it were an off-hand
weapon. Once per round, when your attack causes a
target to be bloodied you can immediately make a melee
basic attack as a free action with your off-hand weapon.
You do not have to attack the target that you bloodied.
If you attack a different target you gain a bonus to your
attack roll and damage roll equal to your Intelligence
modifier.
You also gain access to the geomancer unarmed strike.
While you are not holding anything in your hand, you
can use this weapon. It counts as a weapon in the
unarmed weapon group, has the unarmed property, a
reach of 1, a +3 proficiency bonus and does 1d8 damage.
It functions exactly as a weapon for all other purposes,
including enchanting and disenchanting, except, when
disenchanting you do not destroy the weapon and only
gain one-tenth its worth in residuum.
IMPLEMENTS
Geomancers have the limited ability to use brands (page
25) as implements for some of their powers. When you
wield an implement you can add its enhancement bonus
to the attack rolls and the damage rolls of geomancer
powers and geomancer paragon path powers that have
the implement keyword. Without an implement, you can
still use these powers.
CREATING A GEOMANCER
You can select any assortment of powers for your
character, but geomancers naturally fall into two basic
groups: the Consuming Geomancer and the
Encompassing Geomancer. All geomancer use their
Dexterity to attack, but they may use either Constitution
or Intelligence more depending on your choice of class
features and powers.

"Why

will

make
quick
work
you!"


CLASS TRAITS


Role: Controller. You have the unique ability to
summon minions and control the very nature of the
earth around you. Depending on your choice of
abilities, you may lean more toward striker or
leader as a secondary role.
Power Source: Elemental. Your body serve as a living
conduit for the Elemental forces that cascade
heedlessly through the Elemental Chaos, and by
harnessing them you can call forth minions crafted
from elemental forces or change the terrain of the
earth.
Key Abilities: Intelligence, Charisma, Constitution

Armor Proficiencies: Cloth

Weapon Proficiencies: Simple melee, flail
Implements: Staffs, brands
Bonus to Defense: +1 Fortitude, +1 Will

Hit Points at 1st Level: 14 + Constitution score

Hit Points per Level Gained: 5
Healing Surges per Day: 7 + Constitution modifier

Trained Skills: Arcana. From the class skills list

below, choose three more trained skills at 1st
level. Class skills: Arcana (Intelligence),
Diplomacy (Charisma), Endurance (Constitution),
History (Intelligence), Insight (Wisdom),
Perception (Wisdom), Religion (Intelligence)

Class Features: Diviner's Eyes, Primordial Binding,

Ritual Casting, Shikigami Conjuration

The elements flow through your veins and are welcome

companions on your journey. You are an oracle of fate,
but unlike those who seek guidance from the divine, you
read fate by following the ribbons left from the design of
the Primordials. Although many of the creatures that
now inhabit the world are creations of the Astral Gods
you can still see their place in the tapestry of the
Primordials.
Your control of the chaos is such to make others
envious. You can summon willful minions crafted from
components of the Elemental Chaos. These minions
follow your commands explicitly, but are also able to act
on their own will. The terrain of the world around you is
also a force you can use to confound and harry your foes;
transforming the very world itself into your expression
of power. These transformations are not fickle powers
that dissipate over time; they remain as your mark upon
the world.
Using your minions and your terrain altering powers
you have a vast ability to control the battlefield, forcing
simple pawns into vice gripped traps, and causing
dazzling displays of rampant energy. There are few who
excel more than you at wide burst of damage.

You gain the shikigami conjuration power.

 

IMPLEMENTS
Onmyouji can use either staffs or brands (page 25) as
implements as a way of focusing their ability to channel
the Elemental Chaos. When you wield an implement you
can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and
the damage rolls of onmyouji powers and onmyouji
paragon path powers that have the implement keyword.
Without an implement, you can still use these powers.
CREATING AN ONMYOUJI
You can select any assortment of powers for your
character, but onmyouji naturally fall into two basic
groups: the Chaotic Onmyouji and the Summoning
Onmyouji. All onmyouji use their Intelligence to
attack, but they may use either Charisma or Constitution
more depending on your choice or powers.

 ONMYOUJI OVERVIEW
Characteristics: Onmyouji are unique in that the
summon minions to do much of they're fighting and can
actually alter the terrain that you fight on. With your
variety of class features you can be restricted to short-
and medium- ranged attacks, or have one of the longest
overall ranges of any character.
Religion: With their overt connection to the
Elemental Chaos it is extremely rare for an onmyouji to
worship a god of the Astral Sea. If you so happen to be
one of those few, it likely that you worship Avandra,
Ioun or Sehanine.
Races: With their own connection the Elemental
Chaos, sylph make excellent chaotic onmyouji. Given
the natural charisma of the tiefling and the gnome, they
are often found as summoning onmyouji. Half-Elves are
also common of either persuasion.


 MINIONS AND TERRAIN
A unique feature of the onmyouji is their ability to
summon minions (page 25) and the alter the terrain
around them (page 25). These two abilities combined
give them unprecedented control of the battle field.
Minions are created through the transfiguration of your
shikigami, a disembodied spirit that is fused into a slip
of paper to do your bidding.
CHAOTIC O NMYOUJI
The immutable nature of chaos flows through you and
allows you to twist the land around you into new and
more terrifying forms. Make Intelligence your primary
attribute, followed by Constitution, which will allow
you to do more direct damage and have more effects with
terrain powers and the current damage type you are
channeling. You may want to make Charisma a third
priority to aid in minion summoning. If you select the
Chaotic Ties class feature, your range with most of your
powers will increase as you increase in levels, allowing
you to engage in long-ranged combat.

S UMMONING O NMYOUJI
By wrenching Elemental souls out from the Elemental

minions; allowing you to expertly control the field or
quickly decimate a foe. You will want to make
Intelligence your highest score, and make Charisma your
next priority, aiding you in summoning your minions
and, if you choose Elemental Ties, increasing your
damage against wounded creatures. Make Constitution

mid-ranged combat

Shikigami Conjuration Onmyouji Feature
Tearing a slip of paper out of a book or scroll you
animate it into a paper spirit that innate does your
bidding.
At-Will * Conjuration, Elemental, Transfiguration
Minor Action Close burst 5
Requires: Paper
Effect: You animate of slip of paper to do your bidding
in an unoccupied square in the burst. You must have a
blank a sheet of paper to animate. This power does not
expend the paper. The shikigami lasts until you fall
unconscious or until the end of the encounter. You can
only have one shikigami conjured at a time.
The shikigami has no senses and can only be
controlled if you have line of sight with it. It has 1 HP
and never takes damage on a miss or from one of your
own area or close powers. When you take a move action,
you can also move the shikigami a number of squares
equal to your speed. The shikigami counts as a tiny
creature for the purpose of movement, thus, it can stop in
an already occupied square. If the shikigami is in an
already occupied square at the end of your turn, it can
only apply its bonus, based on your choice of class
features, to the creature in the square.
In order to transfigure it into a minion your shikigami
must be in an unoccupied square. Minions transfigured
from your shikigami count towards your overall total of
shikigami, and they still grant the bonuses detailed by
your class feature.
At 11th level you can summon two shikigami at a time,
and at 21st level you can summon three shikigami at a
time.

CLASS TRAITS


Role: Defender. Your body is inexorably bound to the
chaotic forces of the Elemental chaos. You can
wield fantastical weapons or bind your soul with
the elements. Depending on your choice of powers
and aspects, you lean towards either leader or
striker as a secondary role.
Power Source: Elemental. The entropic cascade of the
Elemental Chaos inherently flows through your
veins. Its unending nature of entropy and
recreation causes you to emulate the chimeric
character of chaos.
Key Abilities: Strength, Constitution, Charisma

Class Features: Chaotic Bloodline, Elemental Scion,

Impassable Guard

Stalwart guardian's of ancient fortresses, secret

conclaves, and Elemental domains, the sentinel's were
the original guardian's of other Elemental classes. They
often were paired with an onmyouji or an architect as
their front guard.
Sentinel's embody more than anyone the chaotic nature
of the power they channel. They are born with a chaotic
flow seeping through every pore that constantly
changes the way that they interact with the world. You
can summon weapons to wield from the Chaos or even
bind yourself with Elemental creatures.
From the very beginning of their existence, they have
been beset with a mutable and untamed nature. Over
time, they learned to control it, to adapt to, and so they
codified it. Taking after the chimera, they termed each
aspect after a part of the monster: the lion, the serpent,
the dragon and the ram.
Now, sentinels are a rare and disappearing breed. You
may be the only sentinel you know, cast out of your
town, your home, because of your nature. Or you may be
a part of one of the last vestiges of a society of sentinels.

your foes.

 GEOMANCY
Powers with the geomancy keyword function as
described below, unless the power indicates
otherwise.
◆ Stance: Any time you use a power with the
geomancy keyword, you enter the stance of that
power. For example, when you use the octopus
armada power you enter the octopus armada
stance. The effect of the stance is detailed under the
heading geomancy in the power description. This
effect lasts until the end of the encounter or until

will, you no longer need to directly control their
movements, they follow your will alone.
MINION
A minion uses these rules, unless a power says
otherwise.
◆ Allied Creature: A minion counts as an ally to
you and your allies for any applicable effects. The
power determines where the minion appears.
◆ Your Defenses: The minion has defenses equal to
yours, disregarding any temporary bonuses or
penalties; often with a penalty as defined by the
power.
◆ Hit Points: Minions have 1 hit point and never
take damage on a miss.
◆ No Healing Surges: The minion does not have any
healing surges, and cannot be the target of any
power that allows any ally to spend a healing sure.
If a power grants an ally hit points without having
to use a healing surge, the minion can be a target of
that power.
◆ Speed: The minion has your speed, unless
otherwise indicated.
◆ Summoning a Minion: When you use a power to
summon a minion you have to make an attack roll
against one of its defenses as defined by the power.
If you succeed the minion is summoned; if you fail
then you do not summon a minion.
◆ Commanding a Minion: When you summon a
minion, you make an initiative roll for the minion
and add your initiative to the roll. You control the
minion, but the minion acts on its own initiative.
Minions only have two actions, a move action and
a standard action.
T ERRAIN

similarly to Zones, but with some important differences.

 TERRAIN
Terrain powers us these rules, unless the power
indicates otherwise.

entire area of effect.
◆ Physical Nature of Terrain: Terrain powers
actively distort the physical world, new terrains
cannot be attacked or have their effects mitigated
except by other terrain powers.
◆ Immovable Ground: You cannot move the terrain
effect after applying it.
◆ Overlapping Zones: Applying the effect of a
terrain power in an area that is already effect by a
terrain, cause the second power to overwrite the
effect of the previous terrain.
◆ Permanence: Changing the terrain is a permanent
effect. The shape of the terrain remains, but bonuses
and penalties associated with the terrain expire at
the end of the encounter.

 

TRANSFIGURATION
Transfiguration powers take mundane objects and
transform them into expressions of your power.
TRANSFIGURATION
Powers that have the transfiguration keyword
function as described below, unless the power
indicates otherwise.
◆ Requirement: Every transfiguration power
requires some focus in order to work. The focus is
transfigured into the form as described in the
power.
◆ Permanent Transformation: The focus is
permanently transformed into the form described in
the power.
UNSTABLE
Unstable describes a condition or an area that does not
allow a creature to stand firmly.


UNSTABLE
The unstable condition works as described below,
unless the power indicates otherwise.
◆ Condition: A creature that inflicted with the
unstable condition suffers a -1 penalty to all
defenses for all attacks and a -2 penalty to attack
rolls.
◆ Area of Instability: If an unstable condition is
due to an area of effect, that area also counts as
difficult terrain
◆ Standing Firm: If the unstable condition is due to
an area of effect or a condition that can be saved
against, you can spend you move action to
stabilize yourself for the round.
IMPLEMENTS
The only new implement introduced here is the brand, an
elemental pattern burned into the flesh of a character that
can be used to channel Elemental power.
BRAND
Brand are complicated patterns of magical energies that
are burned directly into the body. By channeling your
powers through a brand you can increase their accuracy
and damage. Any magical item can have it's magic
siphoned off and applied as a brand by using the
Disenchant Magic Item ritual. All of the same rules apply
as described in the ritual, but instead of receiving a
quantity of residuum you can immediately apply the
same attack and damage roll bonus as the disenchanted
item. Brands cannot be disenchanted, but they can be
overwritten with another brand.
Specific brands can be applied to a character in the same
way as enchanting a item, by using the Enchant Magic
Item ritual. Unless otherwise specified, a character can
only have one brand at any time. Details about specific
brands will come later.
