AC Bonus (Su): At 1st level an warpbond gains a +3 armor bonus to AC. This is a force effect, like mage armor, and applies to incorporeal touch attacks. It increases by 1 at 3rd and every odd level after.

Warp Power (Lesser): The warp favor you, allowing you to select a benefit from the choices below at 1st level and every odd level beyond. Blessings can only selected once unless stated otherwise.

Eidetic Preparation(Ex): You no longer need a spellbook, instead you can prepare spell from memory as if you had the spell mastery feat for each spell you know. You still need to pay any cost to add spells to your 'spellbook' and take the same time to prepare or inscribe, instead of using ink and other arcane substance you use incense and the like. You need the ability to prepare spell from a spellbook in order to take this warp power.

Detect Magic (Sp): You gain detect magic at will.

Extraordinary Skills (Ex): You gain a +2 competence bonus on all skill checks.

Support of the Warp (Ex): You add your HD as a bonus to strength for determining your carrying capacity.

Warp Speed (Su): All your mode of movement increase by 5'.

Natural Armor (Ex): At 2nd level the warpbond gains a +1 enhancement bonus to natural armor. This does not stack with effects like barkskin, but does stack with natural armor as part of race or template. You gain an additional +1 natural armor at 4th and every four levels beyond.

Damage Reduction (Su): At 2nd, the warpbond gains damage reduction equal to 1/2 their character level. It starts out as DR/magic, and becomes DR/evil at 10th level and beyond.

Bonus Feat: At 3rd level you gain a bonus feat, and another bonus feat every three levels beyond. The bonus feat must be chosen from the following list: spellgifted feats and abyssal inheritor feats. (more ideas?)

Deflection (Su): At 4th level an ascetic gains a +1 deflection bonus, and another +1 bonus every four levels.

Rift Strike (Su): At 4th level, any weapons an ascetic uses gains a +1 enhancement bonus to attack and damage, and counts as a magical weapon. You gain another +1 bonus every four levels. At 12th level, it counts as a aligned weapon (of the wielder alignment), and at 20th level it counts as an epic weapon (in spite of not being a minimum of +6 enhancement).

Resistance (Su): At 4th level, an warpbond gains a +1 resistance bonus to all saves, and another +1 bonus every four levels.

Ability Score Enhancement (Su): At 5th level, an warpbond gains a +2 enhancement bonus to one ability score of his choice. At 9th (and every four levels beyond) he gains an extra +2 bonus to that score and a +2 bonus to another ability score. The next time he gains a +2 to two ability scores and a +2 to a new score, and so on and so on.

Mind Shielding (Ex): You become immune to detect thoughts, discern lies, and any attempt to to discern your alignment.

Spell Resistance (Su): You obtain spell resistance equal to your HD + 10, toggled as a free action. If you already have spell resistance, you gain +3 to your spell resistance instead.

True Seeing (Su): You are constantly under the effects of true seeing.

Epic Convenant of the Warp

Bonuses and abilities continue to grow in epic levels, such as the increasing ability score enhancement bonus and the warp powers. In the rare case you run out of warp powers, you obtain bonus feats instead.
