Ravaged By Demogorgon[edit]

Demogorgon's creative obyrith mind always seeks to do stranger and more unusual experiments - and his ravaged lead the way. Whether they come from his obyrith or his tanar'ri half, Demogorgon's ravaged are as mad as their master, and spread his peculiar form of insanity wherever they can.

Making a Ravaged By Demogorgon[edit]

Masters of insanity, ravaged by Demogorgon excel at breaking minds, but can also see beyond the normal and the sane to gain powerful insights and capabilities.

Abilities: Charisma is an important ability score for this class, as many of its abilities depend on it. A high Dexterity and Constitution aren't amiss either.

Races: Only outsiders can become ravaged by Demogorgon.

Alignment: Only chaotic evil creatures can become ravaged by Demogorgon.

Class Features[edit]

All of the following are class features of the ravaged by Demogorgon.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Ravaged by Demogorgon become proficient in rapiers. They gain no additional armour or shield proficiencies.

Spellcasting or Bonus Feat: When a ravaged by Demogorgon gains their first class level, they can choose to either advance spellcasting or not to. If they choose to advance spellcasting, gaining a level in ravaged by Demogorgon counts as gaining a level in their previous class for the purposes of spells known and spells per day. If they had multiple classes capable of casting spells, they choose which one is advanced in this manner.

If they choose not to advance spellcasting, they gain a bonus feat at each level of ravaged by Demogorgon. They must meet all the prerequisites for a feat to take it. Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed, and remains constant no matter how many levels of ravaged by Demogorgon are taken.

Abyssal Power (Su): The mighty power of the Abyss flows through a ravaged by Demogorgon. If they have any spell-like abilities or spells, their caster level always equals their character level (or CR), and any DCs for these spells or spell-like abilities is worked out as if it were a supernatural ability (10 + 1/2 the ravaged by Demogorgon's character level or CR + the appropriate ability score modifier).

Beyond Sanity's Veil (Sp): Ravaged by Demogorgon can use the madness of their patron to see beyond the normal, and gain surprising, if not always accurate, insights. By spending 1 minute in concentration, a ravaged by Demogorgon can use augury as a spell-like ability, with a caster level equal to their character level (or CR).

Scion of Insanity: A ravaged by Demogorgon gains a close connection to the powers of insanity. This has different effects depending on whether the ravaged by Demogorgon is a spellcaster or not.

If the ravaged by Demogorgon is not a spellcaster, they gain the following spell-like abilities at the designated character level (or CR), each useable once per day. If their character level or CR exceeds the minimum character level or CR of the spell-like ability by 2 or 3, then they may use that ability 3/day instead, and if it exceeds the minimum character level or CR of the spell-like ability by 4 or more, they may use it at-will. These abilities have Charisma-based DCs and a caster level equal to the ravaged by Demogorgon's character level (or CR).

Spell-Like Abilities Gained By Ravaged By Demogorgon
Minimum Character Level Spell-Like Ability Gained Equivalent Spell Level
1 Lesser confusion 1st
3 Mirror image 2nd
5 Confusion 3rd
7 Phantasmal killer 4th
9 Insanity 5th
11 Sasha's separate psyche 6th
13 Irresistible dance 7th
15 Symbol of insanity 8th
17 Phantasmagorical image 9th

If the ravaged by Demogorgon is a spellcaster, they add all of the above spells to their class list, and learn them when they reach the marked character level (or CR). They cast them as they would normally cast spells from their class. If the ravaged by Demogorgon had multiple spellcasting classes, apply this to all of them.

Beyond Sanity's Speed (Su): From 2nd level, a ravaged by Demogorgon's sanity is so untethered from reality that they can perform logic-defying stunts of speed. By spending a swift action, they can gain an additional move action. This cannot be done in two consecutive rounds (thus, 1 round must be left in-between each activation of this ability).

Ravage Form (Sp): As a full-round action, a 2nd level ravaged by Demogorgon may bestow Demogorgon's ravage on a creature eligible to gain a level. That creature gains its first level in the ravaged by Demogorgon racial paragon class. If the ravaged by Demogorgon attempts to ravage an unwilling creature, it receives a Will save to resist (Charisma-based DC).

Ex-Ravaged By Demogorgon[edit]

Demogorgon is usually too mad to care much about straying followers - but even then, a disconnection from the madness of their lord robs them of their powers. They lose access to any spells, spell-like abilities and supernatural abilities from this class, and cannot continue to advance in it. They may atone if they want to continue advancing and get their powers back (assuming Demogorgon is lucid enough to notice).
