===Class Features===

All the following are [[SRD:Class|class]] features of the war mind [[SRD:Prestige Class|prestige class]].

'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' War minds gain no proficiency with any weapon or armor.

'''Power Points/Day:''' A war mind can manifest [[SRD:Powers|powers]]. His ability to manifest [[SRD:Powers|powers]] is limited by the [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] he has available. His base daily allotment of [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] is given on Table: The War Mind. In addition, he receives bonus [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] per day if he has a high [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] score. His race may also provide bonus [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] per day, as may certain [[SRD:Feats|feats]] and items. If a war mind has [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] from a different [[SRD:Class|class]], those points are pooled together and usable to manifest [[SRD:Powers|powers]] from either [[SRD:Class|class]]. Bonus [[SRD:Power Points|power points]] from having a high [[SRD:Ability Scores|ability score]] can be gained only for the character's highest psionic [[SRD:Class|class]].

'''[[SRD:Powers|Powers]] Known:''' A war mind chooses his [[SRD:Powers|powers]] from the [[SRD:Psychic Warrior Powers|psychic warrior power list]]. At 1st level, a war mind knows one [[SRD:Psychic Warrior|psychic warrior]] power of your choice. At every even-numbered level higher than 1st, he learns one new power. A war mind can manifest any power that has a [[SRD:Power Points|power point]] cost equal to or lower than his [[SRD:Manifester Level|manifester level]]. The total number of [[SRD:Powers|powers]] a war mind can manifest per day is limited only by his daily [[SRD:Power Points|power points]].

A war mind simply knows his [[SRD:Powers|powers]]; they are ingrained in his mind. He does not need to prepare them (in the way that some spellcasters prepare their spells), though he must get a good night's sleep each day to regain all his spent [[SRD:Power Points|power points]].

The [[SRD:DC|Difficulty Class]] for [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throws]] against war mind [[SRD:Powers|powers]] is 10 + the power's level + the war mind's [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] modifier.

'''Maximum Power Level Known: '''A war mind gains the ability to learn one 1st-level power when he takes his first level in the [[SRD:Prestige Class|prestige class]]. As he attains each even-numbered level beyond 2nd, a war mind gains the ability to master more complex [[SRD:Powers|powers]].

To learn or manifest a power, a war mind must have a [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] score of at least 10 + the power's level.

'''Chain of Personal Superiority ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' At 1st level, a war mind learns the first principle of warfare for the individual combatant: the ability to both deal punishment and take it. Calling upon inner reserves of knowledge and dedication, a war mind can provide himself with a +2 insight bonus to [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] and [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] for up to 1 minute. A war mind can use this power three times per day. Activating this power is a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]]. At 7th level, the insight bonus to [[SRD:Strength|Strength]] and [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] improves to +4.

'''Chain of Defensive Posture ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' At 2nd level, a war mind learns the second principle of warfare for the individual combatant: the ability to avoid the enemy's counterattacks if that enemy is not immediately overwhelmed. Calling upon inner reserves of knowledge and dedication, a war mind can provide himself with a +2 insight bonus to [[SRD:Armor Class|Armor Class]] for up to 1 minute. A war mind can use this power three times per day. Activating this power is a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]]. At 8th level, the insight bonus to [[SRD:Armor Class|Armor Class]] improves to +4.

'''Enduring Body ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' At 3rd level, a war mind learns the third principle of warfare for the individual combatant: to unleash in oneself the spirit of the enduring body. The spirit of the ideal body transforms a war mind, granting him damage reduction 1/—. At 6th level, his damage reduction improves to 2/—. At 9th level, his damage reduction improves to 3/—.

'''Sweeping Strike ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' At 5th level, a war mind gains the ability to make great, sweeping swings with a [[SRD:Melee Weapon|melee weapon]]. On each [[SRD:Melee Attack|melee attack]] a war mind makes, he can choose squares he threatens that are adjacent to each other, and his attacks apply to creatures in those two squares equally. A war mind can use this ability on any attack, even an [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]] or a cleave attempt.

A war mind cannot use this ability if he has moved more than 10 feet since the end of his last turn. If a war mind drops one or both of his foes with a sweeping strike, he can attempt a cleave normally; however, he makes only one cleave attempt per sweeping strike, even if he drops more than one foe.

'''Chain of Overwhelming Force ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' At 10th level, a war mind learns the fourth principle of warfare for the individual combatant: to discover the underlying violence of the world and deliver it in a perfectly executed attack.

The war mind taps into this underlying energy and apply it to a single attack, dealing an extra 10d6 points of damage. A war mind can use this power once per day. Activating this power is a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]]. If the attack misses, the power is wasted.
