Brain Drain (1d4, 4 rounds, 1/day, DC 14) (Su) Target within 100' suffers 1d4 damage, and you have 4 rounds to take a full-round action to make a knowledge skill check using the target's skill bonus. Will negates.
Clouded Vision You cannot see beyond 30'
Darkvision (30 feet) You can see in the dark (black and white only).
Elf Blood Half-elves count as both elves and humans for any effect related to race.
Elven Immunities - Sleep You are immune to magic sleep effects.
Low-Light Vision See twice as far as a human in dim light, distinguishing color and detail.
Sacred Touch You were exposed to a potent source of positive energy as a child, perhaps by being born under the right cosmic sign, or maybe because one of your parents was a gifted healer. As a standard action, you may automatically stabilize a dying creature merely touching it.
Background:
Bahman Taavetti is a local wise man of Wati. The Taavetti house is well respected and own an estate in the Morning Sun district. Bahman is somewhat an outcast in his family born to an Elven mother, but he was not neglected. Born with clouded vision, Bahman has always seen the world different than most. He has never been bitter by that fact, his blindness balanced by the fact that he can see inside the minds of others. Bahman keeps to himself unless someone seeks him out for his knowledge of the Arcane.
Recently Bahman was requested to use his Brain Drain on a tomb raider found outside the necropolis by the Wati authorizes. Bahman uncovered a plot by a necromantic cult residing in Wati that seeks to awaken the dark forces within. The matter was quickly handed over to the Pharasma clergy, but Bahman decided to conduct his own investigation...
RolePlay sample:
You see an older male half-elf sitting in a comfortable chair, his clouded eyes open, but you can not be sure if he is looking at you. Suddenly he speaks in a soothing voice. "Welcome, so you sought me out for my abilities of the mind have you? What is it? Do you think your lover is cheating on you and you want me to rip into his mind and discover the truth? A criminal is lieing and you want me to expose him? Such things I can do, but I warn you, rarely is knowing the truth is as appealing as it sounds. I ask only a small donation." Bahman opens his hand towards you and smiles gently.
