==Magic Unleasher==

Magic Unleashers are true paragons of chaos, letting loose all sorts of spells without having control over which ones.

===Making a Magic Unleasher===

Magic Unleashers are powerful casters, but they're not so good at the whole "control" thing.

'''Abilities:''' Charisma and Intelligence determine spells per day and save DCs, respectively.

'''Races:''' Races that aren't composed of the pure essence of antimagic hold a large majority in this class.

'''Alignment:''' Any.

'''Starting Gold:''' 2d4&times;10 gp (50 gp).

'''[[SRD:Race Descriptions#Starting Age|Starting Age]]:''' Complex.

====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Magic Unleasher.

'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' Magic Unleashers are proficient with simple weapons and light armor. They do not suffer from arcane spell failure.

'''{{Anchor|Save DCs}}:''' All Magic Unleasher save DCs are equal to 10 + half their character level + Intelligence modifier.

'''{{Anchor|Range Measurements}}:''' Things that state Close, Medium, or Long range scale with class level.

'''''{{Anchor|Purely Random Spell}}'' ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Spell-Like|Sp]]):''' As a standard action, the Magic Unleasher can unleash a random spell of a [[#Table: Random Spell Type|random type]], choosing targets after the spell has been randomly determined. Magic Unleashers can cast a number of Purely Random Spells per day equal to their class level plus their Charisma modifier.

'''{{Anchor|Unleasher Trick}}:''' At 4th level and every 4 levels after 4th, the Magic Unleasher learns a new ability, chosen from the following list:

''{{Anchor|Doubled Firepower}}:'' Instead of casting some number of Purely Random Spells each day, the Magic Unleasher can cast that many Purely Random Spells every 12 hours.

''{{Anchor|Increased Choice}}:'' Every time the Magic Unleasher casts a Purely Random Spell, he may reroll once on either the [[#Table: Random Spell Type|Random Spell Type]] or Random Spell table. The Magic Unleasher can learn this Trick more than once; each time, he gains one additional reroll per Purely Random Spell.

''{{Anchor|Favored Type}}:'' Choose a Spell Type. When the Magic Unleasher casts a Purely Random Spell, he may choose to automatically count as having rolled that Spell Type, instead of rolling normally. The Magic Unleasher can learn this Trick more than once, choosing a new Spell Type each time.

''{{Anchor|Favored Spell}}:'' Choose a spell. When the Magic Unleasher would roll on the spell chart for spells that share the chosen spell's type, he may automatically count as having rolled that spell, instead of rolling normally. The Magic Unleasher can learn this Trick more than once, choosing a new spell each time.

''{{Anchor|Purely Random Metamagic}}:'' Three times per day, when the Magic Unleasher casts a Purely Random Spell, before determining which Spell Type it will have, he may choose to apply [[#Table: Purely Random Metamagic|Purely Random Metamagic]] to it. The Magic Unleasher can learn this Trick more than once, gaining five more uses per day each time.

'''{{Anchor|Unleash Scroll}}:''' At level 5, the Magic Unleasher can attempt to activate a scroll without reading it. Doing so is a standard action. When Unleashing a scroll, the Magic Unleasher rolls a d20. On an 8 or higher, the scroll's spell takes effect normally. On a 7 or lower, the scroll suffers a [[SRD:Scrolls#Scroll Mishaps|mishap]].

'''''{{Anchor|Double or Nothing}}'' ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Spell-Like|Sp]]):''' At level 10, the Magic Unleasher can attempt to copy an item's enchantments onto another item. Trying this takes 1 minute and requires a magic item and a mundane item that's identical to the magic item except for its lack of magic. There is a 30% chance that the Magic Unleasher will end up with two identical magic items, and a 70% chance that the Magic Unleasher will end up with two identical mundane items.

|-
! Die Roll !! Name !! Spell Effect
|- 
| 1 || class="left" | Happy Fun Time || You create a Medium emanation, centered on yourself, that lasts for 1 round per class level (you can dismiss it as a swift action). Any creature within the emanation (including yourself) that wishes to attack or take any action that would cause damage to another creature must succeed on a Will save or spend its turn doing nothing.
|- 
| 2 || class="left" | Ragefest || You create a Medium emanation, centered on yourself, that lasts for 1 round per class level (you can dismiss it as a swift action).

|-

<div>{{Anchor|Table: Illusion Spells}}</div>
|-
! Die Roll !! Name !! Spell Effect
|- 
| 1 || class="left" | Conceal Terrain || You make all objects (but not creatures) within an area spanning up to one 10' cube per class level, with no cube more than Medium range away from you, invisible for 1d6 minutes.
|- 
| 2 || class="left" | Convincing Lies || You get an Insight bonus to your Bluff, Disguise, and Forgery checks equal to 10 + twice your class level. This lasts for 5 minutes.
|- 
| 3 || class="left" | Fake Creature || You create the illusion of a creature anywhere up to Close range away, which acts normally, although it can't actually affect anything. Visual, aural, temperature, and scent attributes are simulated. Characters who touch the creature realize that it's an illusion. Illusions created in this way don't know anything you don't know.
|- 
| 4 || class="left" | Sensory Deprivation || One target creature within Medium range must succeed on a Will save or be completely deprived of sensory input for 2 rounds. This prevents it from gaining any new information it does not possess, as it is blind, deaf, incapable of smelling, feeling, tasting, blindsensing, tremorsensing, divining, etcetera.

|- 
| 5 || class="left" | Matter Shredding || Everything and everyone in a 10' radius spread around a point within Medium range takes 1d8 points of damage per character level. A successful Reflex save halves the damage. This doesn't work in areas that prevent teleportation, but it does ignore hardness and damage reduction.
|- 
| 6 || class="left" | Portal Pair || Create two 5' discs at locations within Medium range. One side of each disc is functionally at the same location as one side of the other disc for all intents and purposes. The back sides of the discs are opaque. Dealing 3 damage per character level to the back side of either disc will destroy both discs completely.
|- class="noalt"

|- 
| 2 || class="left" | Zombify || All corpses within a Close range cone are reanimated as a zombie as per ''[[SRD:Animate Dead|animate dead]]''. Zombies past your limit aren't reanimated at all.
|- 
| 3 || class="left" | Cure || Cure one target within Close range of all diseases and poisons.
|- 
| 4 || class="left" | Inflict || Inflict a target within Close range with a supernatural contact disease with save DCs equal to your normal Magic Unleasher save DCs, with an incubation period of 1d4 days, that deals 1d6 points of ability score damage per day (randomly determine the ability score now).
|- 
| 5 || class="left" | Healing Burst || Deal 1d6 points of Positive Energy damage per character level to each creature within Close range. Creatures may make a Will save to negate the damage.
|- 
| 6 || class="left" | Unhealing Chain Reaction || Deal 1d6 points of Negative Energy damage per character level to each creature within 15'. Creatures damaged in this way repeat the process with an area centered on theirselves, although no creature is affected more than once. Creatures may make a Will save to negate the damage.
