Evangelist (Aligned Class Part II)

[Driver_325yards]

Quote:

Aligned Class: Evangelists come from many different backgrounds, and they show an unusual range of diversity. At 2nd level, the evangelist must choose a class she belonged to before adding the prestige class to be her aligned class. She gains all the class features for this class, essentially adding every evangelist level beyond 1st to her aligned class to determine what class features she gains. She still retains the Hit Dice, base attack bonus, saving throw bonuses, and skill ranks of the prestige class, but gains all other class features of her aligned class as well as those of the evangelist prestige class.

Does the Aligned Class Ability allow you to choose a Prestige Class as your aligned class?

Rules as Written: most people say yes, some say no. Because it only says 'class' and does not specify if that includes or excludes prestige classes.

Rules as Intended: unknown.

Best advice: ask your GM. If you are the GM, go with whatever you like. It probably isn't unbalanced either way.

Asked a lot. No clarity in the rules. Ask your GM. IIRC SKR unofficially said base class only, no prestige classes. I might have mis-remembered the dev and associated with SKR because he was involved in that book.
