Languages Common, Aklo, Undercommon, Dwarf, Gnome, Draconic, Infernal Special Abilities:
------------------------------ SPECIAL ABILITIES ------------------------------ Skilled: +1 skill rank per level Inspiration (6/day): As a free action, he can expend one use of inspiration from his pool to add 1d6 to the result of that check, including any on which he takes 10 or 20. The investigator can use inspiration on any Knowledge, Linguistics, or Spellcraft skill checks without expending a use of inspiration, provided he's trained in the skill. Inspiration can also be used on attack rolls and saving throws, at the cost of expending two uses of inspiration each time from the investigator's pool. In the case of saving throws, using inspiration is an immediate action rather than a free action. Commune with Spirits (8/day): At 1st level, a spiritualist gains the ability to use comprehend languages, detect secret doors, and identify, but each has a casting time of 1 minute. At 5th level, he can use augury. Trapfinding (+2): An investigator adds 1/2 his level to Perception skill checks made to locate traps and to Disable Device checks (minimum 1). An investigator can use Disable Device to disarm magical traps. Spirit Sense: When a spiritualist attempts a saving throw against an ability or an effect delivered by an incorporeal creature, he can expend one use of his inspiration instead of two to augment that saving throw. If the spiritualist has the combat inspiration investigator talent, he need not spend any inspiration to augment such saving throws. Strong Life: A Spiritualist gains a +2 bonus on saving throws against death effects and negative energy damage. This bonus increases to +4 at 5th level, and to +6 at 8th level. Keen Recollection: Can make Knowledge checks untrained Sixth Sense: A spiritualist can spend one of his uses of the commune with spirits ability to reroll a single saving throw that he has failed. He must take the results of the reroll, even if it is lower. Whispering Spirits: The spiritualist can expend one use of his commune with spirits ability in order to gain an insight bonus to both AC and saving throws equal to his Wisdom modifier (+3) for 1 minute. Studied Combat (+2, 4 rounds): An investigator can use a move action to study a single enemy that he can see. Upon doing so, he adds 1/2 his investigator level as an insight bonus on melee attack rolls and as a bonus on damage rolls against the creature. This effect lasts for a number of rounds equal to his Intelligence modifier (minimum 1) or until he deals damage with a studied strike, whichever comes first. The bonus on damage rolls is precision damage, and is not multiplied on a critical hit.
Studied Strike (1d6): An investigator can choose to make a studied strike against the target of his studied combat as a free action, upon successfully hitting his studied target with a melee attack, to deal additional damage. The damage of studied strike is precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit; creatures that are immune to sneak attacks are also immune to studied strike. An investigator cannot use studied strike against a creature with concealment. Gear/Possessions:

Background:
The proprietor of Iola's Miscellanea, a small back alley shop in Lepistadt that deals in random items and resale, Kevos is an eccentric middle aged man who may occasionally be mistaken for an escaped luntic. A washed up graduate of Lepistadt University, he manages to keep the business afloat by renting out his skills as an investigator and spiritualist in the service of finding things lost things and such, and by conning the occasional gullible customer. He is a lapsed follower of Abadar, disenchanted with the faith due to his lack of significant prosperity. Appearance and Personality:
Age 45 Height: 6' 8"; Weight 135 Hair: Crazy matted mass of black with bits of grey. Looks like Alan Moore let himself go Kevos is tall and slight enough to be mistaken for a Half-Elf at a distance, but any elven blood in his background is distant enough that he is unaware of it. The few grey hairs mixed in with the jet black mess on his head give away his human blood, but the massive beard would make even a dwarf envious. He is usually dressed anachronistically, in clothes that might have been in fashion a generation ago (and were certainly purchased at a thrift store), and they never fit quite right.
