Class Features[edit]

Bloodweavers channel the blood within them and infuse it with magic in order to meet their needs. As a result, just about every one of their powers is concerned with blood. All of the following are class features of the bloodweaver.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A bloodweaver is proficient with all simple weapons, plus the longsword, rapier, scimitar, short sword, and shortbow. Bloodweavers are proficient with light armor but not with shields.

Blood Casting: To use their class abilities, a bloodweaver must sacrifice some of their hit points. The amount of hit points that they sacrifice determines how powerful the ability they cast is. However, A bloodweaver may not sacrifice more than their total number of hit points. In the entries for the bloodweaver's abilities, the variable X may be used. In such cases, the variable X represents the number of hit points that the bloodweaver has sacrificed.

Bloodsense (Su): Same as spell except the range starts at 15 ft. then increases to 30 ft. at 5th level, 45 ft. at 10th level, 60 ft. at 15th and so forth.

Uncanny Blood Reserves (Su): A bloodweaver can be healed for more than their total amount of hit points. If this happens then the extra hit points manifest as temporary hitpoints. In addition to this, a bloodweaver is allotted a certain number of temporary hitpoints every day after a full-night's rest. These heal automatically even if the bloodweaver's normal hit points would not be fully recovered by the full-night's rest.

Blood Blade (Su): Same as spell except the the attack bonus and damage bonus are equal to X (where X equals the number of hitpoints the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Blood Bolt (Su): Same as spell except it deals Xd6 bludgeoning damage (where X equals the number of hit points the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Blood Barrier (Su): Same as spell except it grants +X deflection bonus to AC (where X equals the number of hitpoints the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Sanguine Storm (Su): Same as spell except it deals Xd6 bludgeoning damage (where X equals the number of hit points the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Blood Wave (Su): Same as spell except it deals Xd6 bludgeoning damage (where X equals the number of hit points the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Blood Bomb (Su): Same as spell except it deals Xd6 bludgeoning damage (where X equals the number of hit points the bloodweaver sacrificed to use the ability).

Blood Runecasting (Su): Beginning at 2nd level, a bloodweaver may sacrifice a certain number of hit points for the use of an ability ahead of time and store the ability for later by forming blood runes on the surface of their skin. They may do this once per day (twice per day at 6th level, three times per day at 10th level, and so on)

Blood Binge (Su): Beginning at 2nd level, a bloodweaver may magically absorb blood within a 30 ft. radius of their location. They are healed 5 hp per fluid ounce of blood. Unfriendly creatures within the radius must pass on a Fortitude saving throw (DC is constitution based) or take 1 damage per tun. The bloodweaver is then healed 1 hp per unfriendly creature per round.
