Roulette Caster (Pathfinder Class)

Roulette Caster

On first glance they appear to be like any other Caster but possibly more accomplished than seems reasonable for someone thier age. Upon closer inspection it becomes clear they they seem to switch between arcane and divine magics at will with seemingly no penalty at all. However, that is not the case in truth Roulette Casters have an unusually high affinity for magic, however in order to balance this the universe itself will not allow any magical knowledge to permanantly take hold in their mind rather allowing this knowledge to flow in thier head during casting then leave once the knowledge is no longer needed. Due to this many Roulette Casters are often mentally unstable to a degree. If you ever are in the presence of one you should try to befriend them as it is safer to have them as an ally rather than as an enemy.

Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Roulette Caster.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Roulette Casters are proficient with all simple weapons. They are not proficient with any type of armor or shield.

Spells: A Roulette Caster casts spells drawn randomly from any spell list. He or she can only cast spells based on the number or Spell Points they have avaliable. Each spell costs a number of points equal to the spell level, if anything would raise the effective spell level then the spell will use points based on the new level (Ie. a Maximized Fireball would cost 6 Spell Points instead of 3). The DC for any spell is 10+ Spell Level + Cha Modifier. A Roulette Caster DOES NOT gain any bonus Spell Points from a high Charisma Score. A Roulette Caster must rest in order to regain Spell Points each day. Further Spell Casting information can be found below under Roulette Casting.

Roulette Casting (Ex): A Roulette Caster casts spells based on the roll of the dice. First you will roll for which spell list you will be drawing from. Then you will roll for what spell level you will cast. Finally you will roll for which spell of that level you will be casting. Use the following tables to help.

Roulette Control (Ex): Starting at level 1 a Roulette Caster is able to adjust one part of their Spell Roll up or down by 1. This adjustment must be decided to be used after the roll is made but before the result of the spell is Revealed. A Roulette Caster is able to use this ability a number of times equal to their Cha Modifier. At level 5 this a Roulette Caster's controls and they are able to adjust one part of the roll by 2. It increases to 3 at level 10, 4 at level 15 and finally 5 at Level 20. This ability can only be used once per spell roll and must only be used on one part. For instance if a 15th level Roulette Caster chooses to adjust the level roll up by 2 they are unable to adjust which spell it lands on despite being able to adjust by a total of 4.

Bonus Luck Feats (Ex): Starting at level 1 and every even numbered level thereafter a Roulette Caster may choose a bonus feat from the following list of luck feats. A Roulette Caster must still meet the prerequisites for any feats.
