Lantern Spirit Trait Typo?


Rules Questions


1 person marked this as FAQ candidate.

My book reads:
"Lantern Spirit (Aasimar- Lawbringers)

Your celestial ancestor was a lantern archon for centuries before ascending to a higher rank.

Benefit: You feel a strange sense of nostalgia whenever you use your continual flame spell-like ability, and can use it as a move action instead of a standard action."

This trait mentions neither the need for material components, nor the number of times per day that continual flame may be used. Aasimar's cannot normally use continual flame as a spell-like ability. Does this mean that there is no limit to the times per day that this trait can be used and that no material components are needed? If so, this would be a very stupid way to amass lots of gold in Pathfinders.

It's probably meant for Daylight since I don't see any alternate racial traits that would explain it.

Did you check any errata from this book?


There is a subtype of aasimar (the archon blooded or lawbringers) get continual flame as a spell-like ability instead of daylight.

This entry is Subtype, alignment, ability modifiers, skill you get a bonus on, and spell-like ability. All this is replaced in the standard aasimar.
