Spellbond Slinger (Gunslinger/Wizard)

(Original Concept by Cartmanbeck)

Primary: Gunslinger.

Secondary: Wizard.

Alignment: Any.

Hit Dice: d8.

Bonus Skills and Ranks: The spellbond slinger selects three wizard skills to add to her class skills in addition to the normal gunslinger class skills, one of which must be Spellcraft. The spellbond slinger gains a number of ranks at each level equal to 2 + Int modifier.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The spellbond slinger is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, all firearms, with light armor, but not with shields. A spellbond slinger can cast wizard spells while wearing light armor without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance. Like any other arcane spellcaster, a spellbond slinger wearing medium armor, heavy armor, or using a shield incurs a chance of arcane spell failure if the spell in question has a somatic component. A multiclass spellbond slinger still incurs the normal arcane spell failure chance for arcane spells received from other classes.

Spellcasting: A spellbond slinger casts arcane spells drawn from the wizard’s spell list. A spellbond slinger must choose and prepare her spells ahead of time. A spellbond slinger can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. Her base daily spell allotment is given on Table: Spellbond Slinger. A spellbond slinger otherwise learns, prepares, and casts spells as a wizard equal to her spellbond slinger level. She also receives bonus spells per day if she has a high Intelligence score.
