::Special Attacks::
Smite (Su) (1/Day)
[Swift Action: The champion of the faith chooses one target within sight to smite. If this target is of his opposed alignment (Evil), the champion of the faith adds his Charisma bonus (+3) to his attack rolls and adds his warpriest level (+4) to all damage rolls made against the target of his smite. If the target of his smite is an outsider with the subtype corresponding to his opposed alignment, the bonus to damage on the first successful attack increases to 2 points of damage per warpriest level the champion of the faith possesses. Regardless of the target, smite attacks automatically bypass any DR the target possesses.

In addition, while smite is in effect, the champion of the faith gains a deflection bonus equal to his Charisma modifier (+3) to his AC against attacks made by the target of the smite. If the smite targets a creature that’s not of the champion of the faith’s opposed alignment, the smite is wasted with no effect.

The smite effect remains until the target of the smite is dead or the next time the champion of the faith regains spells. Using this ability consumes two uses of his fervor ability.]

Precise Strike (Ex) (Deed)
[While she has at least 1 panache point, a swashbuckler gains the ability to strike precisely with a light or one-handed piercing melee weapon, adding her swashbuckler level (+4) to the damage dealt. To use this deed, a swashbuckler cannot attack with a weapon in her other hand or use a shield other than a buckler. She can even use this ability with thrown light or one-handed piercing melee weapons, so long as the target is within 30 feet of her. Any creature that is immune to sneak attacks is immune to the additional damage granted by precise strike, and any item or ability that protects a creature from critical hits also protects a creature from the additional damage of a precise strike. This additional damage is precision damage, and isn’t multiplied on a critical hit.

As a swift action, a swashbuckler can spend 1 panache point to double her precise strike’s damage bonus on the next attack. This benefit must be used before the end of her turn, or it is lost. This deed’s cost cannot be reduced by any ability or effect that reduces the amount of panache points a deed costs (such as the Signature Deed feat).]

Holy Strike (Su) (Blessing)
[You can touch one weapon and bless it with the power of purity and goodness. For 1 minute, this weapon glows yellow-gold and deals an additional 1d6 points of damage against evil creatures. During this time, it’s treated as good for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction. This additional damage doesn’t stack with the additional damage from the holy weapon special ability.]

::Feats::
Weapon Focus (Dagger), Slashing Grace (Dagger), Extra Panache, Weapon Specialization (Dagger)

::Traits::
Fate's Favored
[Whenever you are under the effect of a luck bonus of any kind, that bonus increases by 1.]

River Rat
[You gain a +1 trait bonus on damage rolls with a dagger and a +1 trait bonus on Swim checks. Swim is always a class skill for you.]

Celestial Resistance
[Aasimars have acid resistance 5, cold resistance 5, and electricity resistance 5.]

Skilled
[Aasimars have a +2 racial bonus on Diplomacy and Perform.]

Spell-Like Ability
[Aasimars can use Glitterdust once per day as a spell-like ability (caster level equal to the aasimar's class level).]

Aura (Ex) (Good)
[A warpriest has a particularly powerful aura (as a cleric) corresponding to the deity’s alignment.]

Blessings (Su) (Good & Luck) (5/Day)

Lucky Presence (Su) (Blessing)
[You can touch an ally and grant it a lucky presence. The target of this luck can call upon it to roll any one ability check, attack roll, saving throw, or skill check twice and take the better result. The decision to use this ability must be made before the roll is made. Once used, or once 1 minute passes, the effect ends.]

Sacred Weapon (Su) (1d6)
[In addition to the favored weapon of his deity, the warpriest can designate a weapon as a sacred weapon by selecting that weapon with the Weapon Focus feat; if he has multiple Weapon Focus feats, this ability applies to all of them. Whenever the warpriest hits with his sacred weapon, the weapon damage is based on his level and not the weapon type.

Any sacred weapon wielded by a champion of the faith counts as having his chosen alignment (Good) for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction]

Spontaneous Casting
[A good warpriest can channel stored spell energy into healing spells that he did not prepare ahead of time. The warpriest can expend any prepared spell that isn’t an orison to cast any cure spell of the same spell level or lower. A cure spell is any spell with “cure” in its name.]

Chosen Alignment (Good)

Detect Alignment (Sp) (Evil)
[A champion of the faith can detect his opposed alignment. As a move action, the champion of the faith can focus on a single item or creature within 60 feet and determine whether it possesses the opposed alignment, as Detect Evil, learning the strength of the aura as if he had studied it for 3 rounds. The champion of the faith does not detect alignment in any other object or creature when using this ability in this way.]

Fervor (Su) (4 Points)
[Swift Action: A warpriest can expend one use of this ability to cast any one warpriest spell he has prepared with a casting time of 1 round or shorter. When cast in this way, the spell can target only the warpriest, even if it could normally affect other or multiple targets. Spells cast in this way ignore somatic components and do not provoke attacks of opportunity. The warpriest does not need to have a free hand to cast a spell in this way.]

Panache (Ex) (5 Points)
[At the start of each day, a swashbuckler gains a number of panache points equal to her Charisma modifier (3+2). A swashbuckler spends panache to accomplish deeds (see below), and regains panache in the following ways.

Critical Hit with a Light or One-Handed Piercing Melee Weapon: Each time the swashbuckler confirms a critical hit with a light or one-handed piercing melee weapon, she regains 1 panache point. Confirming a critical hit on a helpless or unaware creature or a creature that has fewer Hit Dice than half the swashbuckler’s character level doesn’t restore panache.

Killing Blow with a Light or One-Handed Piercing Melee Weapon: When the swashbuckler reduces a creature to 0 or fewer hit points with a light or one-handed piercing melee weapon attack while in combat, she regains 1 panache point. Destroying an unattended object, reducing a helpless or unaware creature to 0 or fewer hit points, or reducing a creature that has fewer Hit Dice than half the swashbuckler’s character level to 0 or fewer hit points doesn’t restore any panache.]

Swashbuckler Finesse (Ex)
[A swashbuckler gains the benefits of the Weapon Finesse feat with light or one-handed piercing melee weapons, and she can use her Charisma score in place of Intelligence as a prerequisite for combat feats. This ability counts as having the Weapon Finesse feat for purposes of meeting feat prerequisites.]

Charmed Life (Ex) (3/Day)
[Immediate Action: Before attempting a saving throw, she can add her Charisma modifier to the result of the save. She must choose to do this before the roll is made.]

Nimble (Ex)
[A swashbuckler gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC while wearing light or no armor. Anything that causes the swashbuckler to lose her Dexterity bonus to AC also causes her to lose this dodge bonus.]

Quick Draw (Ex) (Deed)
[Whenever she has at least 1 panache point, a veiled blade gains the benefits of the Quick Draw feat.]

Derring-Do (Ex) (Deed)
[A swashbuckler can spend 1 panache point when she makes an Acrobatics, Climb, Escape Artist, Fly, Ride, or Swim check to roll 1d6 and add the result to the check. She can do this after she makes the check but before the result is revealed. If the result of the d6 roll is a natural 6, she rolls another 1d6 and adds it to the check. She can continue to do this as long as she rolls natural 6s, up to a number of times equal to her Dexterity modifier (5).]

Dodging Panache (Ex) (Deed)
[When an opponent attempts a melee attack against the swashbuckler, the swashbuckler can as an immediate action spend 1 panache point to move 5 feet; doing so grants the swashbuckler a dodge bonus to AC equal to her Charisma modifier (+3) against the triggering attack. This movement doesn’t negate the attack, which is still resolved as if the swashbuckler had not moved from the original square. This movement is not a 5-foot step; it provokes attacks of opportunity from creatures other than the one who triggered this deed. The swashbuckler can only perform this deed while wearing light or no armor, and while carrying no heavier than a light load.]

Kip-Up (Ex) (Deed)
[While the swashbuckler has at least 1 panache point, she can kip-up from prone as a move action without provoking an attack of opportunity. She can kip-up as a swift action instead by spending 1 panache point.]

Hidden Blade (Ex) (Deed)
[Whenever she has at least 1 panache point, a veiled blade can hide any light or one-handed piercing melee weapon using Sleight of Hand, and she receives a +4 insight bonus on her check to hide the weapon.]

Swashbuckler Initiative (Ex) (Deed)
[While the swashbuckler has at least 1 panache point, she gains a +2 bonus on initiative checks. In addition, if she has the Quick Draw feat, her hands are free and unrestrained, and she has any single light or one-handed piercing melee weapon that isn’t hidden, she can draw that weapon as part of the initiative check.]

Weapon Attunement (Masterwork Mithral Dagger)

Armor Attunement (Mithral Chainshirt)

His mother was from Akiheton, the City of Crossroads, she was a priestess of Thalion, and helped tend to a temple within the cities limits. While his father was from the Wandering City of Emerald Song, within Elysium, and by chance was searching in Akiheton for information on his next crusade against evil.

Erevan whisked away Elda after a night of dancing, laughter, and drink through a portal in the city to Elysium. They spent many months basking in the beauty of the plane and were greatly in love. But the whims of an azata are fickle and while he claimed to still love Elda, he could no longer hold off on his crusade. He returned her to Akiheton and promised to return one day when the fates had decided to reunite them.

It was shortly after his father left that Rhyn was born, while pained to be without her love, she smiled and thanked Thalion for the blessing of her child.

Many years passed within the City of Crossroads without any sign of his return. Elda eventually took young Rhyn and moved to a small island named Spindle that was connected to the city through a portal. She hoped to raise her son here away from the bustle of Akiheton and teach him the ways of Thalion.

So it was that Rhyn helped his mother tend to a shrine on the outskirts of Spindle in the name of the Laughter of the Heavens. Rhyn had little trouble making friends, his mother always claimed this was from his father heritage, always laughing, and cordial with all.

As he grew older he became skilled at telling jokes and pulling harmless pranks upon others, eventually being known as a bit of a trickster, to those that knew him.

When he came of age his mother took him aside and told him a story about his father. She told him that as they spent time within Elysium his father had claimed to know that Rhyn would be born while he was away. It was his destiny to lead a crusade against a devil who had wronged him personally many years ago. A great horned devil called "Vistharax the Chained" who had raided his home many years ago.

He left his mother with a small locked chest and told her to give it to his son when he was of age and to teach him how to defend himself from the evil in the world.

Rhyn was shocked that his mother had kept this a secret for so long, but also felt a warmth of love and pride for his father. He opened the chest and found a dagger and suit of chain made of pure mithral, with a sealed piece of parchment on top.

It was a note from his father and explained why he had to leave and how much it pained him to not see his son grow up. That he burned with love for Rhyn and Elda and that he hoped to see them again.

After Elda had delivered this message and gift to her son she told him that within the next few years so would return to the City of Crossroads and seek to find his father. Rhyn decided to stay within Spindle when his mother left, tears in is eyes, but happy to see his mother go looking for her love.

Rhyn spent the next few years within Spindle practicing with daggers learning from sell-swords that passed through and mixing his love of trickery and fighting together.

While Rhyn holds these values close to his heart he is not naive. The world isn't always filled with good intentions and he is quick to defend the innocent from bullies or worse.

Rhyn is lithe in build with golden-yellow hair that falls down upon his pale skin. His eyes are filled with vibrant colors, due to his bralani heritage, and a smirk is usually found upon his face.

A gleaming shirt of mithral can be seen underneath a yellow tabard, while a white gambeson provides comfort underneath. A dark brown leather bandolier crosses his chest, holding an assortment of pouches and a beautiful mithral dagger, while a silver holy symbol hangs from his neck in the shape of a laughing fox dancing among the stars.
