SPECIAL ABILITIES
=================================================
Negative Energy Affinity:
Though a living creature, a dhampir reacts to positive and negative energy as if it were undead—positive energy harms it, while negative energy heals it.
Fangs:
On occasion, a dhampir may inherit lengthy canines. Whenever the dhampir makes a grapple combat maneuver check to damage an opponent, he can choose to bite his opponent. As a standard action, the dhampir can bite a creature that is bound, helpless, paralyzed, or similarly unable to defend itself. Feat blood drinker changes this.

FEATS
1: Blood Drinker
Consuming blood reinvigorates you.
Prerequisite: Dhampir.
Benefit: Whenever you drink fresh blood from a sentient being {Damnation}, you gain 5 temporary hit points and a +1 bonus on checks and saves based on Constitution. The effects last 1 hour. If you feed multiple times, you continue to gain hit points to a maximum of 5 temporary hit points for every three Hit Dice you have, but the +1 bonus on Constitution-based skill checks and saving throws does not stack.
Normally: you can only drink blood from an opponent who is helpless, grappled, paralyzed, pinned, unconscious, or similarly disabled. If you have a bite attack, you can drink blood automatically as part of your bite attack. Drinking blood deals 2 points of Constitution damage to the creature you feed upon. The blood must come from a living creature of the specified humanoid subtype. It cannot come from a dead or summoned creature. Feeding on unwilling intelligent creatures is an evil act.

You must stay at least 5 feet away from the mirror and can’t touch or make melee attacks against that creature. After 1 round, if the creature continues presenting the mirror, you can attempt a DC 25 Will save each round to ignore the repulsion for that round. Dreadful Charm DC13

Class Features
The following are the class features of the investigator.
Armor Proficiency
Investigators are proficient with simple weapons, plus the hand crossbow, rapier, sap, shortbow, short sword, and sword cane. They are proficient in light armors, but not shields.
Inspiration (Ex) {3/3 day}
An investigator is beyond knowledgeable and skilled—he also possesses keen powers of observation and deduction that far surpass the abilities of others. An investigator typically uses these powers to aid in their investigations, but can also use these flashes of inspiration in other situations. An investigator has the ability to augment skill checks and ability checks through his brilliant inspiration. The investigator has an inspiration pool equal to 1/2 his investigator level + his Intelligence modifier (minimum 1). An investigator’s inspiration pool refreshes each day, typically after he gets a restful night’s sleep. 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. This choice is made after the check is rolled and before the results are revealed. An investigator can only use inspiration once per check or roll. 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.
Trapfinding [+1]
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.
Spell Casting
A psychic detective casts psychic spells drawn from the psychic class spell list and augmented by a select set of additional spells (see Psychic Detective Spells). Only spells from the psychic class spell list of 6th level or lower and psychic detective spells are considered to be part of the psychic detective’s spell list. If a spell appears on both the psychic detective and psychic class spell lists, the psychic detective uses the spell level from the psychic detective spell list. She can cast any spell she knows without preparing it ahead of time. To learn or cast a spell, a psychic detective must have an Intelligence score equal to at least 10 + the spell’s level. The saving throw DC against a psychic detective’s spell is 10 + the spell’s level + the psychic detective’s Intelligence modifier. Like other spellcasters, a psychic detective can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. She knows the same number of spells and receives the same number of spells slots per day as a bard of her investigator level, and knows and uses 0-level knacks as a bard uses cantrips. In addition, she receives bonus spells per day if she has a high Intelligence score. At 5th level and every 3 levels thereafter, a psychic detective can choose to learn a new spell in place of one she already knows, using the same rules as a bard. In effect, the psychic detective loses the old spell in exchange for the new one. The new spell’s level must be the same as that of the spell being exchanged, and it must be at least 1 level lower than the highest-level spell the psychic detective can cast.
A psychic detective need not prepare her spells in advance. She can cast any psychic detective spell she knows at any time, assuming she has not yet used up her allotment of spells per day for the spell’s level.flashes of inspiration in other situations. An investigator has the ability to augment skill checks and ability checks through his brilliant inspiration. The investigator has an inspiration pool equal to 1/2 his investigator level + his Intelligence modifier (minimum 1). An investigator’s inspiration pool refreshes each day, typically after he gets a restful night’s sleep. 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. This choice is made after the check is rolled and before the results are revealed. An investigator can only use inspiration once per check or roll. 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.

Bonomo is an old Political driven elf, family Its Matriarch, is one the Ember council, and have a long history with in the high Ember. The family have members thought out the Ember bureaucracy. So the family as a whole has a vested interest in the status-quo and keeping as they are. Onyx was sold as a child to the Elf family Bonomo, a council member, and raised by them to an Auditor. She dose not know where she was born, or why the Bonomo did this, She suspects a debt or some political reason. But she has never been able to find out. They treat her more like a servant that a member of the family. She had spoken to the Matriarch and Patriarch all of two times, Just to give her name and bow at family events. Other than that her life was the stores. Her little cell home, the few books she has and her work.
Then three weeks ago, she was sent by the family Patriarch, ordered by him to investigate some missing goods. It was there in a dark under basement, she was attacked by a human {which has never happened before, being a stores worker she almost never went out} In the surprise attack she was disarmed, then on pour instinct, her Fangs came out and she bit her attacker as he tried to molest her. Deep into his neck they went, when the his blood filled her mouth, and something changed her, something awoke, her vision became red, she bit harder and drank, drank deep and long, Soon he was the one trying to get away, but as she drank so he became weaker and she stronger, it was like electric fire, the hunder the joy, the rush was incredible.
When it was over there was a dead human on the floor, and she had blood down her front. Lucky her clothing was all black. Using her cleaning magic she removed the blood, letting it fall around the dead man. Then taking her spear she sliced his neck where she had bitted, hiding the act, pulling his dagger out she placed it in his hand as if he had cut his own throat.
Oddly when got home, the Matriarch of the Bonomo call her to a meeting. Asking after how her investigation into their missing stores had gone. She informed the Matriarch that they had been recovered and the matter was now closed with the Audit office.
It was then the Matriarch gave her a look. suggestioning somehow she know that Onyx had done more than get the items back.
This just confused Onyx more, what was the family upto and what part does she play in their games. Elves where such political beings.
Then next day she was ordered to join an Exploirty group.
