Spellblitzer[edit]

<-Some quote from a character of this class->
—<-NPC name->, <-race-> <-class->

While it is not terribly uncommon for a spellcaster or manifester to specialize in one of their spell or power, the spellblitzer take it to a level above most. They revel in the use of haste (and its psionic variant), becoming incredibly fast and reactive. The deeper they go in their study, the more their body and perception is altered and the faster they become.

Class Features[edit]

All of the following are class features of the Spellblitzer.

Spellcasting or Manifesting: At each level after the first, you gain new spells/power points per day and an increase in caster/manifester level (and spells/power known, if applicable) as if you had also gained a level in a spellcasting or manifesting class to which you belonged before adding the prestige class level. You do not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If you had more than one spellcasting or manifesting class before becoming a Spellblitzer, you must decide which class to add each level for the purpose of determining spells per day, caster level, and spells known.

Speedster (Ex): A 1st level spellblitzer's increases her land speed by 10 feet and gain Mobile Assault as a bonus feat. At 3rd level and each odd level thereafter, the spellblitzer's speed increases by another 10 feet.

Blurred Images (Su): A 2nd level spellblitzer is under a constant blur and mirror image effect while hasted. She does not roll randomly how many images she has, instead each at the start of each of her turn she generates a single image, to a maximum number of images of half her class level. The effect does not end when all her images are destroyed.

Quickened Reflexes (Ex): At 4th level, a spellblitzer is able to react to just about anything. Firstly she gains her key spellcasting ability modifier as a bonus to her initiative, it does not stack with any ability which allows her to add an ability modifier to initiative beside Dexterity. Secondly while hasted she gains the benefits of uncanny dodge.

Self-Acceleration (Ex): When a 4th level spellblitzer cast haste or manifest physical acceleration, she may do so as a swift action. If she does it only affects herself, even if it would be able to affect other creatures.

Time Has Stopped (Su): A spellblitzer of 6th level or higher is able to greatly accelerate herself to the point nothing around her is moving. As a standard action while hasted, she can replicate the effect of time stop, except she must concentrate on it. At 6th level she may only maintain it for 1 round, but she gains an additional round at 8th level and each even level thereafter. If her time stop ends while an opponent is within reach, she may make a single attack against them just as time is about to resume. They are flat-footed against this attack and it counts as an attack of opportunity.

She may use this ability once per day at 6th, and an additional time per day each level thereafter. After activating Time Has Stopped she must wait 5 rounds before activating it again. Any rounds spent in stopped time, either from this ability or the spell does not count for the purpose of recharging the cooldown time of Time Has Stopped.

Fine Control (Ex): At 8th level, a spellblitzer's fine control over her speed allows her to take an additional standard action while hasted. If she does, reduce the duration of her haste effect by 1 round. If the time increment of haste has been modified (such as in minutes or hours), using this ability reduce the duration by 1 of the same time increment.

Perfect Time Stop (Ex): At 10th level, a spellblitzer can use her Time Has Stopped ability without requiring concentration.
