Phantom Knight

Your phantom has an inherent knowledge of martial arts, prefering to deliver a barrage of blows over powerful slam attacks.

Class: Spiritualist's Phantom

Level: 1st

Replaces: Slam Attack, Slam Damage Progression, Phase Lurch, Incorporeal Form

Benefit: A Phantom Knight receives the following adjustment:

Armored Form (Ex): A phantom knight cannot be manifested normally, instead it must be allowed to possess a suit of plate armor. The phantom knight gains +4 armor bonus to AC, and it does not suffer from the armor’s max dexterity, armor check penalty or movement penalty from wearing heavy armor. The phantom does not count the armor’s weight against its carrying capacity. At 4th level and each 4 levels thereafter, the armor bonus granted to the phantom increases by +1.

However the phantom knight cannot manifest without a suit of empty heavy armor, and cannot manifest in incorporeal form at all.

Protector (Ex): A phantom knight gains the Bodyguard feat as a bonus feat. At 2nd level, the bonus granted by the feat increases by +1 if used to protect the spiritualist, by an additional +1 at 8th level and every six levels thereafter

This ability replaces phase lurch.

Fighting Skill (Ex): A phantom knight is proficient with all martial weapons and receive Weapon Focus as a bonus feat. When it manifests, the phantom knight may form a masterwork weapon it is proficient with, or grasp one provided with the armor it possesses. Once the phantom retreats back into the spiritualist’s mind, is banished, or the weapon leaves its hands, it dissipates.

This ability replaces the phantom’s slam attacks.
