About AndusianStatistics:
Studied Target (Ex):
A slayer can study an opponent he can see as a move action. The slayer then gains a +1 bonus on Bluff, Knowledge, Perception, Sense Motive, and Survival checks attempted against that opponent, and a +1 bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against it. The DCs of slayer class abilities against that opponent increase by 1. A slayer can only maintain these bonuses against one opponent at a time; these bonuses remain in effect until either the opponent is dead or the slayer studies a new target.
If a slayer deals sneak attack damage to a target, he can study that target as an immediate action, allowing him to apply his studied target bonuses against that target (including to the normal weapon damage roll). At 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th levels, the bonuses on weapon attack, damage rolls, and skill checks and to slayer DCs against a studied target increase by 1. In addition, at each such interval, the slayer is able to maintain these bonuses against an additional studied target at the same time. The slayer may discard this connection to a studied target as a free action, allowing him to study another target in its place. At 7th level, a slayer can study an opponent as a move or swift action. Track (Ex): A slayer adds 1/2 his level (minimum 1) to Survival skill checks made to follow tracks. Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A deliverer gains proficiency with his deity’s favored weapon, in addition to the slayer’s normal weapon proficiencies. This ability alters the slayer’s weapon and armor proficiency.

Backstory:
Current Year: 4713 Born before the Worldwound erupted, Andusianthiel Korosian’s father was a smith who worked silver and steel into weapons and armor. His mother, by contrast, was a fierce huntress of demons in the Tanglebriar. As with many elven children, Andusian was raised by the elves of his small village, which was several dozen miles away from the edge of the dread Tanglebriar. As a child, he frequently heard music that no one else seemed able to, but as it seemed only to come at convenient times, the other elves were content to let the child experience it. For the first few decades of his life, Andusian spent his time in play and delight, especially when another birth happened when he was in his forties - a pair of twins, with whom he frequently played games as they grew up. When he was sixty-five, a wandering cleric of Desna arrived in Andusian’s village, having been guided there by her dreams. She found that the young Andusian was naturally attuned to the Song of the Spheres, though she could not explain how, especially when he spoke of his dreams of stalking the corrupt to bring them to justice. Nineteen years later, Andusian’s mother was killed by a demon that had escaped the Tanglebriar, and the pubescent youth led a hunt for the creature, which ended in other, more experienced fighters killing the demon. It was then that Andusian came to realize his divine calling - to hunt down and slay those who would pervert dreams into nightmares - espcially demons. For the next decade and a half, Andusian trained in fighting styles to best hunt demons. When he turned ninety-three, Andusian decided to make a pilgrimage to the Worldwound, to learn of the fighting techniques of the Iomedaeans and their numerous helpers. He made his way across Lake Encarthen by boat to Caliphas. In Ustalav, he saw with a mixture of awe and horror the lives that the humans led. It was… enlightening, if terrible. Andusian’s arrival in Mendev went without trial, and he made his way to Kenabres, where he began to learn more about the Crusades. When he discovered that the humans had been so focused on hunting down cultists that they had killed innocents, he fled into the Worldwound in disgust, deciding (impulsively) to take his own path in hunting and slaying the demons of the Worldwound. Unfortunately, Andusian was caught by a group of cultists, whom he had no hope to fight and win against. He would’ve died there but for the fact that a strange woman stepped in, protecting him from them and helping him trick the cultists into letting him go free. She wore the holy symbol of Desna, and guided him out of the wastes and back into Mendev, where he began to focus his efforts on training - as well as beginning to hunt down rumors of demon cultists. His first true kill was of a human who an elf named Aravashnial had suspected of being a cultist of Deskari. Unfortunately, later evidence bore out that thought to be false, leaving Andusian disgusted with himself and resolving to better investigate his targets in the future. For nearly a year, the murder haunted him, and he spent much of his time trying to help the poor woman’s family recover from their loss. He did find occasional success in slaying demon cultists, but they were few and far between - most of the time he was left chasing dead ends and false trails. Nevertheless, Andusian never faltered in his devotion to Desna and his mission against the demons.
