==Chosen by Gadlnaom==

{{quote
|Gadlnaom looked upon the heat death of the universe, and thought "that's a terrible ending". And so he granted his Chosen the powers they needed to undermine the great witch hunt which was to occur a short 3000 years later.

[[Gadlnaom (3.5e Deity)|Gadlnaom]] occasionally feels the need to change the future. Rather than trying to do so himself, he chooses worshippers to do this for him.

===Becoming Chosen by Gadlnaom===

Characters seek to be chosen by [[Gadlnaom (3.5e Deity)|Gadlnaom]] in order to gain some of his power to see the future. This mostly helps people who like to know things and to act quickly.

====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Chosen by Gadlnaom.

'''{{Anchor|Recitation}}:''' If you go for more than 24 hours without spending at least an hour reciting some of [[Gadlnaom (3.5e Deity)|Gadlnaom's]] alternate histories, you lose the ability to spend Sanity Points until you spend that hour reciting. Recitation requires that you either have one of his books handy, or that you make a DC 15 Knowledge (Religion) check. If you fail the check, Gadlnaom blasts you with images that he knows you won't like immediately before you open your mouth to begin reciting. This blast of images immediately drops your Sanity Pool to 0.

'''{{Anchor|Sanity Pool}}:''' You have a Sanity Pool which can contain up to a number of points equal to your character level + your class level + your Wisdom modifier. Whenever your Sanity Pool hits 0, it refills to full and you gain a random [[#Dementations|Dementation]]. If you already have four [[#Dementations|Dementations]], you take 2d8 points of Wisdom burn and lose the ability to spend Sanity points until you have no more than three [[#Dementations|Dementations]]. As a full-round action you can only take while your Sanity Pool is full, you may reduce your Sanity Pool to 1 and cure yourself of a [[#Dementations|Dementation]].

You can choose to spend more points of Sanity than you currently possess. Doing so drops you to 0, not a negative value.

You naturally recover a number of points of Sanity equal to your Charisma bonus (minimum 1) each hour.

'''{{Anchor|Divine Warning}}:''' You may always act during the Surprise Round. In addition, whenever you make an initiative check, after you see what you rolled, you may spend 1 point of Sanity to get a +20 bonus on the check.

'''{{Anchor|Counterdodge}}:''' Whenever you make an attack, you may spend 3 points of Sanity to deny your target their Dexterity bonus to AC against this attack.

'''{{Anchor|Future Trivia}}:''' At level 2, whenever you make a Knowledge check, you may spend 1 point of Sanity to get a +20 bonus on the check.

'''{{Anchor|Determine Luck}}:''' At level 2, you can choose to spend 4 points of Sanity to roll a d20. The next time you would have to roll a d20, this is the number you will roll.

'''{{Anchor|Lost Marbles}}:''' At level 3, you can no longer ever have fewer than one [[#Dementations|Dementation]] at a time. At level 5, this increases to two [[#Dementations|Dementations]]. However, the number of [[#Dementations|Dementations]] you may have before taking Wisdom damage increases to 5 at level 3 and 6 at level 5.

'''{{Anchor|Prescient Planner}}:''' At level 3, you can change your mind about any choice you have made that hasn't done anything yet. Making this change costs you 8 points of Sanity. ''For example, if you buy a Decanter of Endless Water, until you use it or someone else acts on the knowledge that you have it, you can choose to replace it with a Necklace of Adaptation instead, provided that that was an option at the time you chose to buy the Decanter of Endless Water. As another example, if you know both Color Spray and Magic Missile, if you prepare Color Spray you can choose to have prepared Magic Missile instead.''

'''{{Anchor|Divine Dodge}}:''' At level 4, whenever you would be hit by an attack or fail a Reflex save, you may spend 5 points of Sanity to make that attack miss or succeed on the Reflex save.

'''{{Anchor|Just a Vision}}:''' At level 5, you can effectively undo everything that has happened in the past round, since it turns out that all of that was Just a Vision granted to you by Gadlnaom. Since you still remember these events, any changes to your Sanity Pool and assortment of [[#Dementations|Dementations]] remain. You then lose 10 points of Sanity.

|- 
| align="left" | 4 || Excessive Violence || If there is an enemy within 50', you can't choose not to attempt to damage someone on your turn. If you don't move into melee range and don't have any ranged weapons, you end up throwing rocks/possessions at the enemy.
