Spellbred
What happens when a living spell breeds with a living organism? The spellbred template can be applied to any living creature to create a spellbred creature. This template merges that creature with any arcane or divine spell.
- Type: Add the Augmented sub-type.
- Size: Same as base creature
- HD: creature's racial HD + nD10, where n is 1/2 the caster-level
- AC: Gains deflection bonus equal to 1/2 spell level
- Attack: base creature's abilities, plus a slam attack, as living spell
- SA:
- Spell effect(Su): as living spell; this may be delivered via a slam or a touch attack, even in a grapple (they cannot engulf). The target of the spell is always the touched creature, and the duration is only while the target is touched. No abilities can alter those limitations. This spell counts as a spell-known for all prerequisites that require the ability to cast spells of a certain type or level. (so, a creature with the this template used to apply Magic Missile would be able to cast a 1st level spell, and hence meet that pre-req for Arcane Archer, even if they never take levels in a spell casting class) .
- Spell Known(Ex): A creature with this template is always considered to know the spell that it is based off of. It may convert any spell-slot of the appropriate kind and level into this spell spontaneously. The caster-level of the class used to grant that slot is used for casting in that case.
- Skills and Feats: As base creature for spell HD.
- SQ: +2 saves vs mind affecting, DR 5/magic, SR 10 + 1/2 caster-level
- +2 to spellcraft checks involving spells of the same school as the base spell; always succeeds on spellcraft checks pertaining to the spell that it is based on
- Saves: all poor- do not use the base creature's saves
- BAB: low
- Ability Scores: as base creature
- CR: base creature's CR + 1/2 caster-level
- LA: base creature's LA + 1/2 caster-level ; the minimum LA this template can grant is a +2, regardless of the caster-level
