{{quote|A man's home is his castle.}}
A warden is a spellcaster that specializes in defensive and protective magics. While this makes them well suited to protecting and fortifying a single location, some wardens become adventurers and utilize their skills to defeat the magical defenses of others. Wardens are often employed by individuals or organizations with a mind to improving their security, and the longtime homes of powerful wardens are among the most secure locations in the world.

<noinclude>====Class Features====</noinclude><includeonly>=====Class Features=====</includeonly>
'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' The warden is proficient with light, medium, and heavy armor, shields, and all simple and martial weapons.
'''{{Anchor|Spells}}:''' A warden casts arcane spells, which are drawn from the warden list. The warden automatically knows all the spells on the warden list, as well as a selection of additional spells from his Advanced Learning ability. If he gains access to new spells through effects such as Prestige Domains, he automatically knows those spells as well. He can cast any spell he knows without preparing it ahead of time. The warden's spell DCs and bonus spells are determined by his Intelligence score.
The warden recieves the same spells per day as a sorcerer of his level.
At the DM's discretion, the warden may exchange spells on the warden list for other abjuration spells of the same level from the sorcerer/wizard list.
The warden is treated as a wizard who has specialized in the school of abjuration for the purpose of meeting prerequisites.
'''{{Anchor|Armored Mage}} (Ex):''' Wardens recieve specialized training that allows them to cast more effectively in armor. A warden ignores the arcane spell failure chance of any armor with which he is proficient.
'''{{Anchor|Trapfinding}}:''' As the [[SRD:Rogue#Trapfinding|rogue]].
'''{{Anchor|Enduring Magic}}:''' At 2nd level, the warden's spells become more difficult to remove. He adds a bonus equal to one half his class level (round down) to his caster level for the purpose of resisting his spells being dispelled.
'''{{Anchor|Advanced Learning}}:''' At 3rd level and each odd-numbered level thereafter, the warden gains additional spell knowledege. He may select either one abjuration or [Force] spell of any spell level which he can cast from the sorcerer/wizard or cleric lists, or one spell of any school of a level up to one less than the highest level he can cast from the sorcerer/wizard list. This spell is added to his list of spells known at the level at which it appears on the sorcerer/wizard list if it appears there, or the level it appears on the cleric list if it does not.
'''{{Anchor|Wardsense}} (Su):''' At 4th level, the warden becomes instinctively attuned to defensive magics. He is automatically aware of any magicial trap, gylph spell, symbol spell, or similar effect with 120ft. An opposed caster level check reveals what conditions will activate these effects (e.g. the location that triggers a trap, or the doorway protected by a symbol of pain), but not passwords that will disable or bypass them.
'''{{Anchor|Cooperative Wards}}:''' At 6th level, the warden can store his allies magic in his defensive spells. When he casts gylph of warding or a similar spell, he may store spells known by any willing ally who is present when he casts the spell, rather than just spells he knows.
'''''{{Anchor|guards and wards}}'' (Sp):''' At 8th level, the warden can weave potent magics to protect his home. He can use ''[[SRD:Guards and Wards|guards and wards]]'' once per day as a spell-like ability. The duration of the effect is unlimited, but only one instance of it may be active at a time. The caster level of the effect is equal to the warden's caster level, and it benefits from his Enduring Magic and Unimpeachable Magic abilities. When the warden uses guards and wards (either from this ability, or by casting the spell normally), he may select an additional option off the list of choices the spell provides for every two caster levels above 8 he possesses (so a warden with caster level 10 could choose to have stinking cloud active in two locations and gust of wind in a corridor). He may choose the same ability multiple times.
'''{{Anchor|Transient Wards}} (Su):''' At 10th level, when the warden casts a ''symbol'' spell or a spell with a duration of "permanent" or "permanent until discharged" and an expensive material component, he may elect not to use the relevant material component. If he does so, the spell fades when he next regains spells if its effect has not already been discharged. He may have only one such spell active at a time.
'''''{{Anchor|permanency}}'' (Sp):''' At 12th level, the warden can make spells permanent. Once per week, he can use ''[[SRD:Permanency|permanency]]'' as a spell-like ability. If an effect he has made permanent in this way is dispelled, it is restored to functionality the next time he regains spells. An effect that is dispelled for three days in a row is removed permanently. At 16th level, he can use this ability once per day instead of once per week.
'''{{Anchor|Maximum Force}}''' At 14th level, the warden gains perfect control over force magic. Any [Force] spell he casts is [[SRD:Maximize Spell|Maximized]]. This does not increase either the spell slot used to cast the spell or the spell's casting time.
'''{{Anchor|Unimpeachable Magic}}:''' At 18th level, the warden's magics are protected from the meddling of lesser mages. Any attempt to dispel one of his spells (or his ''guards and wards'' ability) by a character with a caster level lower than his own (factoring in the bonus from Enduring Magic) automatically fails.
'''{{Anchor|Warding Mastery}}:''' At 20th level, the warden casts ''symbol'' spells and all spells with a duration of "permanent" or "permanent until discharged" as supernatural abilities.

<noinclude>====Class Features====</noinclude><includeonly>=====Class Features=====</includeonly>
'''Weapon and Armor Proficiency:''' The warden is proficient with light, medium, and heavy armor, shields, and all simple and martial weapons.
'''{{Anchor|Spells}}:''' A warden casts arcane spells, which are drawn from the warden list. The warden automatically knows all the spells on the warden list, as well as a selection of additional spells from his Advanced Learning ability. If he gains access to new spells through effects such as Prestige Domains, he automatically knows those spells as well. He can cast any spell he knows without preparing it ahead of time. The warden's spell DCs and bonus spells are determined by his Intelligence score.
The warden recieves the same spells per day as a sorcerer of his level.
At the DM's discretion, the warden may exchange spells on the warden list for other abjuration spells of the same level from the sorcerer/wizard list.
The warden is treated as a wizard who has specialized in the school of abjuration for the purpose of meeting prerequisites.
'''{{Anchor|Armored Mage}} (Ex):''' Wardens recieve specialized training that allows them to cast more effectively in armor. A warden ignores the arcane spell failure chance of any armor with which he is proficient.
'''{{Anchor|Trapfinding}}:''' As the [[SRD:Rogue#Trapfinding|rogue]].
'''{{Anchor|Enduring Magic}}:''' At 2nd level, the warden's spells become more difficult to remove. He adds a bonus equal to one half his class level (round down) to his caster level for the purpose of resisting his spells being dispelled.
'''{{Anchor|Advanced Learning}}:''' At 3rd level and each odd-numbered level thereafter, the warden gains additional spell knowledege. He may select either one abjuration or [Force] spell of any spell level which he can cast from the sorcerer/wizard or cleric lists, or one spell of any school of a level up to one less than the highest level he can cast from the sorcerer/wizard list. This spell is added to his list of spells known at the level at which it appears on the sorcerer/wizard list if it appears there, or the level it appears on the cleric list if it does not.
'''{{Anchor|Wardsense}} (Su):''' At 4th level, the warden becomes instinctively attuned to defensive magics. He is automatically aware of any magicial trap, gylph spell, symbol spell, or similar effect with 120ft. An opposed caster level check reveals what conditions will activate these effects (e.g. the location that triggers a trap, or the doorway protected by a symbol of pain), but not passwords that will disable or bypass them.
'''{{Anchor|Cooperative Wards}}:''' At 6th level, the warden can store his allies magic in his defensive spells. When he casts gylph of warding or a similar spell, he may store spells known by any willing ally who is present when he casts the spell, rather than just spells he knows.
'''''{{Anchor|guards and wards}}'' (Sp):''' At 8th level, the warden can weave potent magics to protect his home. He can use ''[[SRD:Guards and Wards|guards and wards]]'' once per day as a spell-like ability. The duration of the effect is unlimited, but only one instance of it may be active at a time. The caster level of the effect is equal to the warden's caster level, and it benefits from his Enduring Magic and Unimpeachable Magic abilities. When the warden uses guards and wards (either from this ability, or by casting the spell normally), he may select an additional option off the list of choices the spell provides for every two caster levels above 8 he possesses (so a warden with caster level 10 could choose to have stinking cloud active in two locations and gust of wind in a corridor). He may choose the same ability multiple times.
'''{{Anchor|Transient Wards}} (Su):''' At 10th level, when the warden casts a ''symbol'' spell or a spell with a duration of "permanent" or "permanent until discharged" and an expensive material component, he may elect not to use the relevant material component. If he does so, the spell fades when he next regains spells if its effect has not already been discharged. He may have only one such spell active at a time.
'''''{{Anchor|permanency}}'' (Sp):''' At 12th level, the warden can make spells permanent. Once per week, he can use ''[[SRD:Permanency|permanency]]'' as a spell-like ability. If an effect he has made permanent in this way is dispelled, it is restored to functionality the next time he regains spells. An effect that is dispelled for three days in a row is removed permanently. At 16th level, he can use this ability once per day instead of once per week.
'''{{Anchor|Maximum Force}}''' At 14th level, the warden gains perfect control over force magic. Any [Force] spell he casts is [[SRD:Maximize Spell|Maximized]]. This does not increase either the spell slot used to cast the spell or the spell's casting time.
'''{{Anchor|Unimpeachable Magic}}:''' At 18th level, the warden's magics are protected from the meddling of lesser mages. Any attempt to dispel one of his spells (or his ''guards and wards'' ability) by a character with a caster level lower than his own (factoring in the bonus from Enduring Magic) automatically fails.
'''{{Anchor|Warding Mastery}}:''' At 20th level, the warden casts ''symbol'' spells and all spells with a duration of "permanent" or "permanent until discharged" as supernatural abilities.
