Alternate Paths: Prestige Classes

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Make Prestige Classes MEAN Something!

Early in Pathfinder we are introduced to the concept of “prestige classes”, classes we need to qualify for in order to enter. These are seen as goals and many people work towards them. Unfortunately, not all prestige classes dovetail nicely with base classes and they were largely supplanted by archetypes, hybrids, and alternate classes. A prestige class should be a reward and, while they should not be inherently stronger than a base class, should at least be on par with them and offer some interesting roleplaying opportunities.

Prestige Classes:

  • Afflicted: Lycanthropes rejoice! You can tame your inner beast and use it to fight worse things that go bump in the night!
  • Bereaved: Grief got you by the heart? Living only for that SINGLE purpose? A bereaved dedicates everything to their single-minded goal!
  • Dragon Scout: A 0th level prestige class with 5 levels that prepares you for life as an adventurer! Earn merit badges and advance all the way up to wyrm scout!
  • Polymath: You are ALL about the skills- learning and mastering many areas of expertise that others couldn't even come close to touching!
  • Returned: Had a near death experience? Turn that into an opportunity by exploring the thin line between life and death!
  • Tainted Mage: Use spell-plagues and other diseases in your magic by turning all your spells into "tainted" spells that inflict others with nasty diseases!
  • Thousandfold: Religious warriors who seek personal godhood. They believe in "holy action" and grow many spiritual arms to achieve many things at once!

Also Included:

  • Retooled Prestige Class System: Helps keep prestige classes as a viable option by adding certain reworkings of the system. Includes ways to modify existing prestige classes easily.
  • "Groundworks": Feats that let you use levels in prestige classes as levels in other classes for the purpose of a specific class feature or character aspect. This allows for endless combinations and greater customization for characters with prestige classes!
  • 7 Premade NPCs!: Great as players or as enemies! One for each prestige class in this book (including the 20th level "Hundred Hands of Heaven"!)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
