Carnage Princess

Come here and let me cut you, k?

Carnage Princesses chop people up with swords. That is their specialty. They move about fairly rapidly, able to traverse battlefields that are covered in other people’s blood and muscle tissue, and then, once they’re close? They unleash a special sword technique designed to killify people.

Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Carnage Princess.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Carnage Princess becomes proficient with every weapon with the word “Sword” in the name.

Thousand Swords (Ex): The Carnage Princess never runs out of swords – she always seems to have one on her and can pull one from nowhere with a Free action. They are basic trash, but she treats them as Basic Magic Weapons. The swords can be greatswords, longswords or bastard swords. Additionally, she may make an attack with any of the above weapon types as a Swift action.

Blood Walker (Ex): The Carnage Princess is so used to walking on blood that she never slips on liquids – blood, grease, napalm, oil, water and so on.

Blade Rush (Ex): A second-level Carnage Princess does not have to target the nearest opponent or even move in a straight line when charging. What's more, she may attack everyone she moves adjacent to for the charge.

Hurricane Slice (Su): With a Standard action, the Carnage Princess can make a pair of melee attacks against the same opponent who has an empty square adjacent to them and opposite her. She moves so fast as to flank them with herself, and each successful hit deals an additional 2d6 Sonic damage. Additionally, if either attack scores a critical hit, then they are both critical hits.

Gore Shower (Ex): Whenever a fourth-level Carnage Princess kills a Medium or larger creature with a melee weapon, the target sprays blood everywhere in a 20' radius spread. This is treated as a mist that lasts for one round, granting Concealment, however she can see through it just fine. The following round, it effectively makes a grease effect for 1 minute. Additionally, all in the area aside from her must pass a Fort save when it first happens (DC 10 + half the target's Hit Dice + target's Con mod) or be Nauseated for 1 round.

Euthanasia (Ex): At level four, the Carnage Princess gets Murderous Intent as a bonus feat. If she already has this, or selects it later, then she may make a Coup de Grace against foes who are simply Nauseated, Cowering or Exhausted.

Stabbing Frenzy (Ex): The fifth-level Carnage Princess becomes lightning-fast with her swords. When using any weapon her Combat School covers, she may use a Full Round Action to make a single attack roll, which applies against every adjacent opponent. She cannot score critical hits, but gets one hit for every point her attack roll beats the target's Armour Class by.

Dis-Arm (Ex): Any time a sixth-level Carnage Princess Power Attacks a foe with a Slashing weapon and deals at least 25% of the foe's maximum hit points in damage (after DR) with the one hit, one limb is lopped off. If it's a leg, the target can only crawl 5' with a Move action and can't stand (excepting some creatures with heaps of legs). If it's an arm, it cannot use it to attack, cast spells etc. Other weird limbs should do something similar.

Winged Slayer (Su): With a Standard action, a level seven Carnage Princess can launch herself into the air, making one attack which applies against every foe in a Short-ranged cone. This counts as charging, so all benefits and penalties for charging apply. At the end of the attack she lands anywhere she likes that is adjacent to the cone. Every successfully hit target in the cone suffers an additional 1d6 Sonic damage per target that is inside the area.

Felony: Too Many Murders (Su): Starting at level eight, the Carnage Princess is guilty of murdering too many people, but that's okay. She gains a divine power effect any time she kills someone, for a number of rounds equal to the victim's CR (less than CR 1 = zero).

X-Dimension Cut (Ex): With a Standard action, the ninth-level Carnage Princess can try to chop someone into Hell. She makes a single attack as a Melee Touch Attack, and if it hits, it deals 10d4 Negative Energy damage in addition to the usual damage, and the target must then pass a Will save (Strength-based) or be sent to Hades. This ability only works with weapons covered by her Combat School. If she scores a critical hit, this bonus damage actually multiplies as well.

Dimension Slice (Ex): At level ten, the Carnage Princess has unlocked the final art, learned from a gym teacher or something. With a Standard action, she slices a 30' long line and makes a melee touch attack. All in the line who would be hit by the roll are instantly sent to Hades with no save. Also she may use a Standard action to hack a travel gate into existence for one minute.

Playing a Carnage Princess

Assumed Entry: Human Samurai 5.

Combat: Once you hit the 5th level of the class, you want to be able to start your turn next to opponents. This allows you to chop them up! Other than that, you get to make two attacks in a standard action, so you aren't helpless as you position yourself.

Advancement: Either an additional 5 levels of Samurai, or some other prestige class.
