OREAD
RACIAL FEATURES
+2 Strength, +2 Wisdom, –2 Charisma: Oreads are strong, solid, stable, and stoic.
Native Outsider: Oreads are outsiders with the native subtype.
Medium: Oreads are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Slow Speed: Oreads have a base speed of 20 feet.
Darkvision: Oreads can see in the dark up to 60 feet.
Energy Resistance: Oreads have acid resistance 5.
Earth Affinity: Oread sorcerers with the elemental (earth) bloodline treat their Charisma score as 2 points higher for all sorcerer spells and class abilities. Oread clerics with the Earth domain use their domain powers and spells at +1 caster level.
Freeze: An oread can hold himself so still he appears to be a statue and can take 20 on Disguise checks to appear as such.
Granite Skin: Oreads gain a +1 racial bonus to natural armor.
Shaitan Magic: 1/day - magic stone, stone shield. The caster level for these spell-like abilities equals the oread's level; DC 11 + Charisma modifier.
Stone in the Blood: Oreads gain fast healing 2 for 1 round anytime they are subject to acid damage (the acid damage does not need to overcome the oread’s resistances or immunities to activate this ability). The oread can heal up to 2 hit points per level per day with this ability, after which it ceases to function.
Languages: Oreads begin play speaking Common and Terran. Oreads with high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Aquan, Auran, Dwarven, Elven, Gnome, Halfling, Ignan, and Undercommon.
ALTERNATE RACIAL FEATURES
Crystalline Form: Oreads with this trait gain a +2 racial bonus to AC against rays thanks to their reflective crystalline skin. In addition, once per day, they can deflect a single ray attack targeted at them as if they were using the Deflect Arrows feat. This racial trait replaces earth affinity.
Mostly Human: A few oreads have appearances much closer to those of their human ancestors; in fact, they may not even realize their true race. Such oreads appear to be human, save perhaps minor features like unusual eye color, and they count as humanoid (human) as well as outsider (native) for all purposes (such as humanoid-affecting spells such as charm person or enlarge person). These oreads do not automatically gain Terran as a known language (but may select it as a bonus language if their Intelligence is high enough). This ability alters the oread’s type, subtype, and languages.
Rocky Soul: Some oreads are more rock than man. They are treated as a creature made mostly of rock or stone for the purpose of how magic affects them.They are not healed or harmed by positive or negative energy effects which deal or heal hit point damage. Effects which can be used to repair constructs or objects that cost at least 1 spell point (or which use a spell slot of 1st level or higher) can target them and restore their hit points. This replaces the shaitan magic racial trait.
Stone Body: Some oreads have a stronger connection to their elemental forebears than others. They gain Basic Magic Training in the Alteration sphere as a bonus feat at 1st level with the Beast Soul drawback for Elemental Transformation (earth elemental only), receiving Elemental Transformation as a bonus talent as normal. Once per day, they may use this talent without paying the additional spell point cost. This replaces the earth affinity and shaitan magic racial traits.
Stone Strength: Oreads who learn the parable of stone know that stone’s nature is patience and passivity, its unstoppable might showing only in rare moments. They gain the Brute sphere as a bonus talent at 1st level, as well as the Burly drawback (which grants the Muscular Surge talent as normal). This replaces the shaitan magic racial trait.
Stone Thrower: Some oreads have mastered conjuring and manipulating stone, crystal, or metal. They gain Basic Magic Training in the Destruction sphere as a bonus feat at 1st level with the Focused Energy drawback for a blast type with the earth or metal descriptor, receiving a bonus talent as normal. This replaces the earth affinity and shaitan magic racial traits.
