Class Features

Arcane Will: When making a will-save to resist drain from an arcane spell, you may substitute your wisdom modifier with your intelligence modifier.


Spells: To learn, prepare, or cast a spell, the acolyte must have an Intelligence score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a acolyte’s spell is 10 + the spell level + the acolyte’s Intelligence modifier.

Acolytes cast spells from any domains they know. At level 1, an Acolyte chooses three domains. At levels 5 and 15, they choose an additional domain. See list Acolyte Domains

Imp Familiar: Acolytes have an imp familiar; often this little imp was the one that showed them the way of infernal magic. Though the imp might be using the magician for its own goals, it's genuinely loyal to the Acolyte it serves. Imps grant their masters +1 intelligence for bonding with them.


Drift

Drift is a process in which the acolyte becomes less and less human; at first, it's less visible, but as he grows in power it comes more and more noticeable. The choice of path is not a conscious one that the acolyte makes; he merely begins to drift in the path that suits his personality. Unlike a mystic's drift, the acolyte's drift happens in a distinct progression along one of three paths.

The three paths are the following, each representing different things;

Path of the Pit Fiend: Alignment; Chaotic Evil - Those who take the path of the pit fiend are ruthless people who desire, above all else, power. They are utterly selfish, uncaring, and without mercy. Unlike those of the tempted, they desire power for a cause. They may wish to take revenge upon a rival, or against a country, or simply to take dominion over others. They will do anything to advance their own cause

Path of the Tempted: Alignment; Any non-good - Acolytes that take the path of the tempted desire power, not for any specific purpose, but to further their own scholarly pursuit of magic power. While not as selfish and uncaring as those who channel the pit fiend, they can still be quite nasty, depending on the individual.

Path of the Foocubus: Alignment; Chaotic Neutral or Chaotic Evil - Those who take the path of the Foocubus (Succubus for females, Incubus for males) are those who are selfish and unloving; while they are gripped by lust, they are unable to understand love. They see love merely as lust and beauty; and something to take. They enjoy breaking the hearts of others; often, they couple this with physical pain. They are quite fond of making someone fall in love with them, only destroy their self-confidence and mind, or even worse, to physically torture and deform their lovers.
