View source for Gravity Warrior (3.5e Class)

==== Class Features ====

All of the following are class features of the gravity warrior.

'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' A gravity warrior is proficient with all [[SRD:Simple Weapon Proficiency|simple]] and [[SRD:Martial Weapon Proficiency|martial]] weapons, with [[SRD:Armor Proficiency (Light)|light]] and [[SRD:Armor Proficiency (Medium)|medium]] armor, and with all [[SRD:Shield Proficiency|shields]] save [[SRD:Tower Shield Proficiency|tower shields]].

'''{{Anchor|Pseudo-Strength}}:''' The forces that course through the body of a gravity warrior grant him incredible weight.  This increased weight allows him to act in certain situations as though he were much stronger than he actually is. At first level a gravity warrior gains a +2 miscellaneous bonus to all [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] based [[SRD:Skills|skill checks]], [[SRD:Bull Rush|bull rush checks]], [[SRD:Grapple|grapple checks]], regular [[SRD:Strength|strength checks]], and to his [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] score in order to determine his [[SRD:Carrying Capacity|carrying capacity]]. This bonus increases by 2 at every level divisible by 5 after the first level (5<sup><small>th</small></sup>, 10<sup><small>th</small></sup>, 15<sup><small>th</small></sup>, and 20<sup><small>th</small></sup>).

'''{{Anchor|[[SRD:Endurance|Endurance]]}}:''' A gravity warrior's control of gravity allows him to persist through difficult tasks with ease. At 1st level a gravity warrior gains [[SRD:Endurance|Endurance]] as a bonus [[SRD:Feats|feat]].

'''{{Anchor|High-Gravity Zone}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 2nd level a gravity warrior gains the ability to focus his control over gravity and increase its effects within an area around him. At this level the gravity warrior can spend a [[SRD:Move Actions|move action]] and make 4, 5ft by 5ft squares per gravity warrior level into [[SRD:Movement, Position, and Distance#Difficult Terrain|difficult terrain]].  All 5ft by 5ft squares that have been made difficult terrain by the gravity warrior must be contiguous and within 100 feet of the gravity warrior.  All 5ft by 5ft squares that have been made difficult terrain by the gravity warrior will remain difficult terrain until the gravity warrior dispels the effect, even if the warrior leaves the 100 foot range of this ability.  Dispelling the effect is a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]].

'''{{Anchor|Ground Hammer}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):'''  At 3rd level a gravity warrior gains the ability to focus the forces of gravity that course through his body into his fist, making it immensely heavy.  His fist gains so much weight that the only action he can take is to punch the ground beneath him, creating such an impact that all characters within a 5 ft./level foot blast radius who are in contact with the ground must make a [[SRD:Saving Throw#Fortitude|Fortitude save]] ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 10 + half the gravity warrior's Hit Die + the gravity warrior's [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier) or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]], become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] for 1 round, and take 1d10 damage per four gravity warrior levels (minimum one).  If this save is made then the creature only takes half damage, and does not become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]]. This affects even [[SRD:Construct Type|constructs]] and creatures without [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] modifiers. This is a [[SRD:Full-Round Actions|full round action]] that, once taken, can’t be taken again until 1d6 rounds later.

'''{{Anchor|Fast Movement}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 4th level, a gravity warrior gains the ability to ease the effect of gravity on his body, giving him an enhancement bonus to his speed, as shown on [[#Table: The Gravity Warrior|Table: The Gravity Warrior]].

'''{{Anchor|Gravity Well}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Supernatural|Su]]):''' At 6th level a gravity warrior learns to manipulate the weight of something from a distance. A gravity warrior gains the ability to focus on one target within a certain distance of himself as a [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]]. This target must pass a [[SRD:Saving Throw#Fortitude|Fortitude save]] ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 10 + half the gravity warrior's Hit Die + the gravity warrior's [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier) or immediately fall to the ground; falling [[SRD:Prone|prone]] for 1 round and becoming [[SRD:Exhausted|exhausted]] for 10 minutes.  This ability can be used on airborne targets and unattended objects as well.  If this effect is used on an airborne target, then it falls to the ground and as such takes appropriate [[SRD:Falling#Falling Damage|falling damage]].  [[SRD:Falling#Falling Damage|Falling damage]] caused by this class feature cannot be negated in any way, shape, or form.  If this class feature is used on an unattended object, then that objects weight grows nearly infinite for one round, and cannot be lifted by any force.  This effect affects even [[SRD:Construct Type|constructs]] and creatures without [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] modifiers.  Gravity Well has a range of 25 ft./level and, once used, cannot be used again until 1d4 rounds later.

'''{{Anchor|Steadfast}}:''' At 7th level a gravity warrior gains the ability to weigh down his body, making it much more difficult to affect him on the field of battle.  For the purpose of resisting [[SRD:Bull Rush|bull rush]], [[SRD:Disarm|disarm]], [[SRD:Grapple|grapple]], [[SRD:Overrun|overrun]], and [[SRD:Trip|trip]] attempts, the gravity warrior is considered one size category larger than he actually is.

'''{{Anchor|Leaden Weight}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' A gravity warrior eventually learns to bend gravity to his will in unusual ways, allowing himself to increase the mass of an object, yet loosen gravity's pull on it, allowing himself to swing it with ease.  At 7th level any weapon a gravity warrior wields deals damage as though it were one size category larger.  The weapon is not actually larger and therefore is still treated as a weapon of its original size category. This increase in damage only applies if the weapon is in the hands of the gravity warrior.

'''{{Anchor|Impact}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):'''  At 9th level a gravity warrior gains the ability to decrease gravity's hindering qualities upon an object, allowing him to put his full strength into a strike. When a gravity warrior is wielding a [[SRD:Weapons|weapon]] in two hands he adds 2 times his [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier to his damage rolls, instead of the normal 1.5 times.  If he is wielding a [[SRD:Weapons|weapon]] in one hand he adds 1.5 times his [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier to his damage rolls.  If a Gravity Warrior is dual-wielding a [[SRD:Weapons|weapon]] in each hand he adds 1.5 times his [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier to his damage rolls for the [[SRD:Weapons|weapon]] in his primary hand, and only half of his [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier to his damage rolls for the [[SRD:Weapons|weapon]] in his off hand.

'''{{Anchor|Earth Hammer}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 12th level a gravity warrior gains the ability to focus an even greater amount of gravity into his fist, increasing its weight to the point that as it falls the air around it is blown back from its momentum.  The only action the gravity warrior can take while his fist is this heavy is to punch the ground beneath him, creating such a massive impact that all characters within a 10 ft./level blast radius who are in contact with the ground must make a [[SRD:Saving Throw#Fortitude|Fortitude save]] ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 10 + half the gravity warrior's Hit Die + the gravity warrior's [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier) or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]], become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] for 1d4 rounds, and take 1d10 damage per three gravity warrior levels. If this save is made then the creature only takes half damage, and does not become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]]. Additionally all characters who fail their [[SRD:Saving Throw#Fortitude|Fortitude save]] fly back 5 feet from the impact. Creatures of [[SRD:Huge Size|huge size]] or larger are not affect by this 5 ft blow back. This effect affects even [[SRD:Construct Type|constructs]] and creatures without [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] modifiers. This punch is a [[SRD:Full-Round Actions|full round action]] that, once taken, can’t be taken again until 1d6 rounds later. Earth Hammer does not replace [[#Ground Hammer|Ground Hammer]].

'''{{Anchor|Great Leaden Weight}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' A gravity warrior eventually learns to bend gravity to his will with such ease that he can make an object weigh several hundred pounds, yet lift it as though it was weightless.  At 14th level any weapon a gravity warrior wields deals damage as though it were two size categories larger. The weapon is not actually larger and therefore is still treated as a weapon of its original size category. This increase in damage only applies if the weapon is in the hands of the gravity warrior.

'''{{Anchor|Improved Impact}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 18th level a gravity warrior gains the ability to increase both the weight and speed of a weapon he wields to the degree, that it is capable of leaving behind the most terrible wounds. Any weapon the gravity warrior wields has its [[SRD:Weapon Qualities#Critical|critical multiplier]] increased by one step (from &times;2 to &times;3, from &times;3 to &times;4, from &times;4 to &times;5).

'''{{Anchor|Tectonic Hammer}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 20th level a gravity warrior gains the ability to focus such immense portions of gravity into his fist that the world around him seems to dim for a moment as light itself bends in response to it. At this point the gravity warrior's fist has become so weighty that the only action that he can take is to punch the ground, creating such an earth-shattering impact that all characters within a 15 ft./level blast radius who are in contact with the ground must make a [[SRD:Saving Throw#Fortitude|Fortitude save]] ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 10 + half the gravity warrior's Hit Die + the gravity warrior's [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] modifier) or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]], become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] for 2d4 rounds, and take 1d10 damage per two gravity warrior levels. If this save is made then the creature only takes half damage, and does not become [[SRD:Stunned|stunned]] or fall [[SRD:Prone|prone]]. Additionally all characters who fail their [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] fly 10 feet away from the impact.  Creatures of [[SRD:Huge Size|huge size]] or larger only fly back 5 feet. This effect affects even [[SRD:Construct Type|constructs]] and creatures without [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] modifiers. This punch is a [[SRD:Full-Round Actions|full round action]] that, once taken, can’t be taken again until 1d6 rounds later. Tectonic Hammer does not replace [[#Ground Hammer|Ground Hammer]] or [[#Earth Hammer|Earth Hammer]].
