Arcane Bond (Su): At 1st level, wizards form a powerful bond with an object or a creature. This bond can take one of two forms: a familiar or a bonded object. A familiar is a magical pet that enhances the wizard's skills and senses and can aid him in magic, while a bonded object is an item a wizard can use to cast additional spells or to serve as a magical item. Once a wizard makes this choice, it is permanent and cannot be changed.

Wizards who select a bonded object begin play with one at no cost. Objects that are the subject of an arcane bond must fall into one of the following categories: amulet, ring, staff, wand, or weapon. These objects are always masterwork quality. Weapons acquired at 1st level are not made of any special material. If the object is an amulet or ring, it must be worn to have effect, while staves, wands, and weapons must be held in one hand. If a wizard attempts to cast a spell without his bonded object worn or in hand, he must make a concentration check or lose the spell. The DC for this check is equal to 20 + the spell's level. If the object is a ring or amulet, it occupies the ring or neck slot accordingly.

A bonded object can be used once per day to cast any one spell that the wizard has in his spellbook and is capable of casting, even if the spell is not prepared. This spell is treated like any other spell cast by the wizard, including casting time, duration, and other effects dependent on the wizard's level. This spell cannot be modified by metamagic feats or other abilities. The bonded object cannot be used to cast spells from the wizard's opposition schools.

A wizard can add additional magic abilities to his bonded object as if he has the required Item Creation Feats and if he meets the level prerequisites of the feat. For example, a wizard with a bonded dagger must be at least 5th level to add magic abilities to the dagger (see Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat). If the bonded object is a wand, it loses its wand abilities when its last charge is consumed, but it is not destroyed and it retains all of its bonded object properties and can be used to craft a new wand. The magic properties of a bonded object, including any magic abilities added to the object, only function for the wizard who owns it. If a bonded object's owner dies, or the item is replaced, the object reverts to being an ordinary masterwork item of the appropriate type.

If a bonded object is damaged, it is restored to full hit points the next time the wizard prepares his spells. If the object of an arcane bond is lost or destroyed, it can be replaced after 1 week in a special ritual that costs 200 gp per wizard level plus the cost of the masterwork item. This ritual takes 8 hours to complete. Items replaced in this way do not possess any of the additional enchantments of the previous bonded item. A wizard can designate an existing magic item as his bonded item. This functions in the same way as replacing a lost or destroyed item except that the new magic item retains its abilities while gaining the benefits and drawbacks of becoming a bonded item.

Wood Magic: At 1st level, add the following spells to your Wizard spell list at the listed spell level: 2nd—entangle, 3rd—tree shape, 4th—plant growth, 5th—command plants, 6th—tree stride, 7th—liveoak, 8th—transmute metal to wood, 9th—control plants.

Flexible Enhancement (Su): A master of the wood element is able to bend like bamboo when stressed and snap back into place. You gain a +1 enhancement bonus to your Dexterity, Constitution, or Wisdom ability score. This bonus increases by +1 for every five Wizard levels you possess to a maximum of +5 at 20th level. You can change this bonus to a new ability score when you prepare spells. At 20th level, this bonus applies to two of these ability scores of your choice.

Splintered Spear (Su): As a standard action, you can create a wooden shortspear appropriate to your size, which hurls itself as a ranged attack against one target within 100 feet (range penalties apply), using your Intelligence modifier as an attack bonus instead of your Strength or Dexterity modifier. The spear deals normal damage according to its size, plus your Intelligence modifier, then breaks into countless splinters; the target takes 1 point of bleed damage each round on its turn. At 6th-level and every 6 levels thereafter, the spear gains a +1 enhancement bonus and the bleed damage increases by +1. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier.

Clever Wordplay: Choose one Charisma-based skill. You attempt checks with that skill using your Intelligence modifier instead of your Charisma modifier.

Classically Schooled: You gain a +1 trait bonus on Spellcraft checks, and Spellcraft is always a class skill for you.

Honeyed Tongue: You gain a +1 trait bonus on Diplomacy checks, and Diplomacy is always a class skill for you.

Noble Born: You claim a tangential but legitimate connection to one of Brevoy’s noble families. If you aren’t human, you were likely adopted by one of Brevoy’s nobles or were instead a favored servant or even a childhood friend of a noble scion. Whatever the cause, you’ve had a comfortable life, but one far from the dignity and decadence your distant cousins know. Although you are associated with an esteemed name, your immediate family is hardly well to do, and you’ve found your name to be more of a burden to you than a boon in many social situations. You’ve recently decided to test yourself, to see if you can face the world without the aegis of a name you have little real claim or care for. An expedition into the storied Stolen Lands seems like just the test to see if you really are worth the title “noble.” Choose one of the following noble families
and associated benefits.
Hu: Your family’s history of trading along the shores of the Sea of Eels pervades your blood. As a deft merchant of the region, you gain a bonus language: Aquan, Elven, Goblin, Minkaian, Senzar, Taldane, Tengu. Your family motto is “Success through Grace.”

Amongst the nobles of Lingshen, and indeed in the Lung Wa Empire before that, the Hu family were known as successful and wealthy merchants. What wasn’t known was that such wealth did not always make it to every branch of the family. Hu Xiang Lun’s family was one of the less wealthy, relying on their family name to convey status as opposed to their wealth. Xiang’s father, Huan, had studied at the prestigious Five Elements Academy, a school which taught the arts of wizardry and alchemy, and after graduation engaged in the sale of magical and alchemical trinkets. It was his wish that his family further the business, and so he taught each of them the finer arts of negotiation and haggling, as well as having each of his children tested to determine their aptitude for the arcane arts. While his brother, Han, was strong, he did not have the talent for the arcane, and so chose to join the army. His sister, Chi, developed her abilities on her own, but could not be taught, and so was not permitted to attend the academy. Xiang, however, was bright. He showed signs of potential very early on, and was accepted into the academy on his 16th name day. There, he quickly learned the fundamentals of magic, rising to the top of his class. In his studies, he learned ways to use magic with his already considerable talent for negotiations, and became quite well known as a mediator. To enhance his mediation abilities, he chose to specialize in the study of the element of Wood, to learn to bend as bamboo does in wind without breaking. He would often be called upon to mediate disputes of his fellow classmates, and his magical prowess was such that his teachers were quite pleased with his progress.

Unfortunately, this also changed his goals. No longer did he desire to create and sell magical trinkets to others. He wanted to explore the depths of magic, to grow in strength, and further his arcane knowledge. He wanted to achieve greatness and glory, perhaps becoming a Wizard in service to King Huang himself. He wanted to pass on his knowledge, to found his own magical academy. And yet, he was unsure of how to tell this to his father without bringing dishonor upon his family. His father expected him to aid in the crafting and sale of magic items, but he did not want that. As his day of graduation loomed closer, he found himself wrestling with the conundrum, unsure of how to proceed. In the end, he reluctantly realized that he would have to work with his father’s business, and hope only for an opportunity to arise in which he would have the chance to rise to a new position.

On the day of his graduation, he was called to the Headmaster’s office. Unsure of the reason, Xiang answered the summons, and was surprised to find his father in the office. The Headmaster asked him to sit down, and told him that King Huang had decided the time had come to free those who had been enslaved by the jorogumo in Shnemen. He would be sending an expedition to that land to establish a vassal state, and the Five Elements Academy had been asked to send one of their best pupils. The Headmaster wished to send Xiang, but had chosen to speak with his father as well, to ensure an auspicious beginning. He then excused himself so that Xiang and his father could speak in private.

Xiang’s father turned to him, and said, ”You must accept this, my son. It is a great honor for our family, to be chosen for this. I do not care what path you wished to follow upon graduation, but this is the path you must take.”

Xiang could scarcely breathe. A task like this would allow him to discover new magic and to grow more powerful in the arcane arts. He would be serving the King, and the rewards from this mission would give him a title and lands. This was everything he had hoped for, and on top of it all, his father wanted him to go. Carefully schooling his face, Xiang said, ”Though I will miss my family greatly, I will endeavor to bring honor upon my name and my house. I will join this expedition.”

Now, Xiang finds himself in the Yan province, with an Imperial charter signed by King Huang himself, ordering him to go forth into Shenmen, pacify the monsters there, liberate the humans enslaved by them, and bring civilization and law to the land. He will make a name for himself, he will grow in arcane power, and he will found the greatest academy in Tian Xia.

Hu Xiang Lun desires to increase his magical prowess and pass on his knowledge. To that end, he would be ideal in the Magister position. His skills in negotiation make him well-suited to being the Grand Diplomat, and such a position would allow him to visit the Lingshen Royal Court, which he greatly desires to see. Finally, as his father owns a shop, he also has the skills to monitor the finances of the nation as the Treasurer.

Xiang is in his mid-20s, and of average height and weight. He has shaved his head bald, and has grown a thin, long mustache and unattached goatee. Though he has purchased some clothing well-suited to travelling, he also carries with him more scholarly clothing, as he finds it more comfortable. He carries a walking stick and appears to have no other weaponry, though he considers his magic and his skill with words weapon enough.

Appearance : Height: 4’4” Weight: 74ibls

Even compared to his fellows, Yata is quite the raggedy bird. Born smaller than most, he never seemed to quite grow into his feathers, often giving him the impression of beard around his beak and hunched figure. Still, his eyes exude a warm glow of camaraderie and one can often notice the arching of his beak resembling a human smile. Often nestled on his wide brimmed hat is Nib, his spirit animal and a rather high strung rhamphorhynchus with a veritable star chart for wings.

Personality To the Tengus of his tribe, Yata has been source for wisdom and kindness in a world that has so far been quite cruel to them. Amiable, generous (though a little grumpy from time to time) , Yata seeks others comfort before his own and would do just about anything for another person in distress.
While he views the Tengu of Linshen as his primary charges, he certainly is not nepotistic enough to refuse the pleas of help from any other people. This doesn't mean he’s forgiven the tien humans for their oppressive nature toward tengu kind, but if change is to happen he feels it should be positive and proven through deeds of cooperation and peace, rather than a futile and bloody rebellion. In his downtime, Yata enjoys stargazing and reading poetry over usually very cheap wine.

Potential Roles: Councillor, High Priest, Viceroy of a Tengu populated area of the kingdom.

The creature takes a –1 penalty on attack rolls and sight-based Perception checks. This penalty to attack rolls and Perception checks increases by 1 at 4th level and every 4 levels thereafter, to a maximum of –6 at 20th level. This effect lasts for a number of rounds equal to half the shaman's level (minimum 1). Sightless creatures cannot be affected by this ability.

Yata was not hatched in Yan, his birth province is in fact a mystery even to himself. Garatsu, his mother, a venerated saint among his tribe, was an outcast for many years. Yata’s father was allegedly a tengu tribal elder in their home ghetto, but when he was murdered by a jealous rival, his mother and many of his followers were outcasted, forced out relative safety to die.

His mother, however, would not die so readily. A hardy tengu, she was canny enough to lead her tribe and her new offspring through many perilous situations with a mixture of stealth and diplomacy. It was from her that Yata learned much of his philosophy when leading and advising others.

At the age of 15, having spent years in the harsh wilderness, Yata was stargazing alone, as he often tended to do. The stars had always held a deep resonance for him. One night, from the black void a group of fireflies crashed to earth… or atleast thats what it look like at first. As it turned out, it was a small, midnight blue flying lizard that seemed overly interested in the young tengu. Yata took it as a sign.

He proposed to the tribe that he could lead them to a new civilised home. No more sleeping in caves, no more hunting, no more predators. With his newly acquired friend’s help, they finally arrived at the Yan province and while the local tengu tribes resisted at first, a few arranged marriages and peace offerings allowed Garatsu’s brood safety into the ghetto.

Now classed as an elder by his follows, it’s no secret to many that he is a skilled mediator of many of the petty differences that inflict the local tengu tribes and has done his part helped make the ghettos a slightly safer place for all. The Good Son of Garatsu has been rather proactive in serving his new home, providing aid to the homeless and injured in not just the ghetto, but the local churches. These services (as well as his shamanistic power) earned him enough of reputation to be summoned before the an official and be presented with the imperial charter.

“Now the spirits of heaven deliver a new message, eh Nib my old friend? A new home for my brood. Can’t possibly be a bad thing. No. I believe it’s the start of something extraordinary.”
