Natural weapons are weapons that are physically a part of a creature.

Making a melee attack with a natural weapon is considered armed and does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

When a creature has multiple natural weapons, one of them is the primary weapon and all the others are secondary (–5 penalty on attack rolls).

When unarmed, the melee primary natural weapon automatically replaces the unarmed attack.

Secondary natural weapons may provide additional attacks on full attacks or in certain special situations. For example, even holding a longbow, a lizardfolk can still make melee attacks with its bite.

See Encyclopedia: Equipment - Natural Weapons for details.



Some powerful races are more special. These races have 2 or more racial Hit Dice.

The effective character level of a character of these races = racial Hit Dice + class levels + level adjustment.

The racial Hit Dice can be considered a “monster class” similar to normal player classes. Effectively, the character will become a multiclass character when he takes class levels. A character's “monster class” is always a favored class, and he never takes XP penalties for having it.

So his actual character level = racial Hit Dice + class levels, which determines other stats, such as hit points, skill points, gaining feats, etc.

Furthermore, he does not get a feat and four times skill points for his first class level as members of the common races do. Instead, he has already received the equivalent bonuses for his first racial Hit Die.

He can start with no class levels, i.e. choosing no class for a lower starting level. He can gain them later.

Planetouched is a general word to describe someone who can trace his or her bloodline back to an outsider, usually a fiend or celestial.

The effects of having a supernatural being in one’s heritage last for many generations. Although not as dramatically altered as a half-celestial or a half-fiend, planetouched still retain some special qualities.

Aasimar and tiefling are the most common planetouched varieties. Aasimars are humans with some trace of celestial blood in their veins, and tieflings have some fiendishness in their family tree.

Powerful Races and Level Adjustments
Some races are more powerful than normal races. These races have a racial trait called level adjustment.

When create a powerful race character, add the level adjustment to the character level to get the effective character level, i.e. character level + level adjustment = effective character level.

When level up the character, use the effective character level to determine the experience points needed. Therefore, the character requires more experience points to level up than a normal character. In other words, powerful race characters level up more slowly than normal characters.

Powerful race characters still use the actual character level to determine other stats, such as hit points, skill points, gaining feats, etc.

Generally speaking, a powerful race character cannot be added to an adventure party as an initial character. Only a high enough level adventure party can recruit powerful race characters.

This spell transforms your body into living iron, which grants you several powerful resistances and abilities.

You gain:
- Damage reduction 1/adamantine per caster level.
- Immunity to critical hits, electricity, poison, ability score damage, stunning, blindness, deafness, disease, and all spells or attacks that affect your physiology or respiration.
- Take only half damage from acid and fire of all kinds.
- +6 enhancement bonus to Str, -6 penalty to Dex (min. 1).
- Considered armed when making unarmed attacks and deal 1d6 damage (1d4 for Small characters).

But meanwhile you suffer:
- Half speed.
- Arcane spell failure chance of 50%, -8 armor check penalty.
- Special attacks that affect iron golems affect you, too.
- Can't use potions.


Mind fog produces a bank of thin mist that weakens the mental resistance of those caught in it.

Creatures in the mind fog take a -10 competence penalty on Wis checks and Will saves. A creature that successfully saves against the fog is not affected and need not make further saves.

Affected creatures take the penalty as long as they remain in the fog and for 2d6 rounds thereafter.

The fog is thin and does not significantly hamper vision.


The subject is protected from all mind-affecting spells and effects.


You place a curse on the subject.

Choose one of the following effects:
* -6 decrease to an ability score (min. 1).
* -4 penalty on attack rolls, saves, ability checks, and skill checks.
* Each turn, the target has a 50% chance to act normally; otherwise, it takes no action.


Remove curse instantaneously removes all curses on a creature.


Imbuing you with negative energy, this spell allows you to paralyze a single living humanoid for the duration of the spell with a successful melee touch attack.

Additionally, the paralyzed subject exudes a carrion stench that causes all living creatures (except you) in a 10-foot-radius spread to become sickened (Fortitude negates). A neutralize poison spell removes the effect from a sickened creature, and creatures immune to poison are unaffected by the stench.


You can free one or more creatures from the effects of any temporary paralysis or related magic, including a ghoul's touch or a slow spell.

If the spell is cast on one creature, the paralysis is negated.

If cast on two creatures, each receives another save with a +4 resistance bonus against the effect that afflicts it.

If cast on three or four creatures, each receives another save with a +2 resistance bonus.


The subject, along with all its carried gear, turns into a mindless, inert statue.

If the statue resulting from this spell is broken or damaged, the subject (if ever returned to its original state) has similar damage or deformities.

Only creatures made of flesh are affected by this spell.


This spell restores a petrified creature to its normal state. The creature must make a DC 15 Fortitude save to survive the process.


Detoxify any sort of venom in the creature touched. The target suffers no additional effects from the poison, and any temporary effects are ended.

The target is immune to any poison during the duration of the spell. It need not make any saves against poison effects applied to it.

The spell does not reverse instantaneous effects, such as hit point damage, temporary ability damage, or effects that don't go away on their own.

Divine power protects the paladin and gives her special powers. It wards off harm, protects her from disease, lets her heal herself, and guards her heart against fear. The paladin can also direct this power to help others, healing their wounds or curing diseases. Finally, the paladin can use this power to detect and destroy evil.


A paladin may attempt to smite evil with melee attacks.

She adds her Cha bonus to her attack roll and deals 1 extra point of damage per level.

Uses per day: 1 + level / 5.

A paladin with a Cha bonus can heal wounds (her own or those of others) by touch.

Healing points per day: level x Cha bonus. The healing can be divided among several uses.

This ability can also be used to strike undead: after a successful melee touch attack (doesn’t provoke AOs), the paladin can spend the points to deal damage to the undead.

A paladin can sense the presence of evil.

Gains a bonus equal to Cha bonus on all saving throws.

Gains immunity to all diseases, including supernatural and magical diseases.

A paladin is immune to fear. Each ally within 10 feet of her gains a +4 morale bonus on saving throws against fear effects.

This ability functions only while the paladin is conscious.

Beginning at 4th level, a paladin gains the ability to cast a small number of divine spells.
