It is said that the pursuit of power and immortality will lead men and women to commit great atrocities, and through the power of the profane great power can be found. A dread impaler uses an ancient ritual, which isn't unlike the one in legend which created the first vampire. The pursuit of this power requires a dark heart, as well as a thirst for blood, both literal and figurative. A dread impaler will find themselves able to drink blood for sustenance, become stronger and tougher and eventually cursed by the sun but otherwise able to stave off the wear of time.

Dread Impaler[edit]

“ One thousand men on pikes, to ward off my enemies. One thousand men on pikes, to scare off their armies. One thousand men on pikes, to stave off my mortality! ”
—Unknown Dread Impaler

It is said that the pursuit of power and immortality will lead men and women to commit great atrocities, and through the power of the profane great power can be found. A dread impaler uses an ancient ritual, which isn't unlike the one in legend which created the first vampire. The pursuit of this power requires a dark heart, as well as a thirst for blood, both literal and figurative. A dread impaler will find themselves able to drink blood for sustenance, become stronger and tougher and eventually cursed by the sun but otherwise able to stave off the wear of time.

Becoming a Dread Impaler[edit]

A Dread Impaler typically hail from the ranks of fighters, barbarian, and more combat oriented rogues. They share a lot with the blackguard, gaining magical and supernatural abilities from the ritual. Eventually the dread impaler will become more than human and share a few traits with the undead, although while remaining alive in a profane and cursed state.

Sanguine Sustenance (Ex): A 1st level dread impaler can sustain herself with the blood of her enemies, if she drink a single pint of blood which belonged to a sapient creature she counts as having consumed enough food and drink for the day. When she rests if she consumes enough blood to sustain herself for that day she recovers twice the amount of hit point and ability damage from rest.

At 7th level, if she consumes at least five pints of blood which belonged to a sapient creature then she does not age for the day. If she consumes one pint of unicorn blood or the blood of a creature with the [Good] subtype, she does not age for a month.

Aura of Dread (Ex): A 2nd level dread impaler can inspire dread into her foes and even in an entire army. All creatures of CR 5 or less within 30 ft of her are always At Bay from her as long as she stays in their line of sight or until they successfully strike her, creatures of a higher CR are allowed a Will save to avoid this effect. A creature that successfully saves against this effect or successfully strikes the dread impale is immune to it for 1 minute. A dread impaler may exclude a creature from its aura as a free action.

Impaling Lunge (Ex): A 2nd level dread impaler can make a special lunge as a standard action with any spear she Weapon Focus in. While doing so she may move up to half her move speed, and make an attack with an extra 5-ft. of reach.

Hell Pikes (Su): As a standard action, a 3rd level dread impaler can summon iron pikes from the underworld under her opponent. This functions as the ice spears, except that it deals unholy damage instead of cold damage. This attack counts as evil-aligned and magic for the purpose of overcoming DR. If the creature is helpless or dying, this is made a coup de grace instead of an attack.

Suncursed Ascension (Ex): At 10th level, the dread impaler ceases to age normally, and instead returns to the state of a young adult for 1 month if she consumes unicorn blood or the blood of a creature with the [Good] subtype through her sanguine sustenance class feature. Additionally, from now on, if the dread impaler is slain she may be resurrected as per true resurrection by gathering her severed body parts and casting them in a pool of blood, which must have been harvested from at least seven non-evil humanoid creatures.
