Which classes / archetypes give the pc evolutions?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I know of synthesist and Hunter archetype with dead pet. Are there any others?


Or feats?
Are there any feats that produce things like (that could be fluffed as) evolutions? They don't have to be specific, it's more for the character story than ability.
Ie. I kind of wanted to grow a tail or scales. The character was born human but it's mother was an eidolon (long story) so I want to tap into some latent eidolon-stuff even if it's just cosmetic. If be fine using a d100 for what happened kind of like that tiefling feat...


That's it.


Aspect of the Beast gives you a selection of upgrades to choose from. A ranger with the natural weapon style can ignore the prerequisites.

Beastmorph Alchemist archetype gives you all sorts of nifty things while under the effects of a mutagen. The alchemist class in general has all sorts of body horror goodness, from wings and tentacles to extracts that sprout vines out of your arms.

If your DM allows third party material, take a look at the Aberrant archetype for the Aegis in Ultimate Psionics. Great if you want to play a tentacle monster.


If you're willing and able to use a third party race, there is one called the Warped that is more or less what you're looking for. Half human(oid), half Eidolon. They get a small pool of evolution points and a restricted list of what they can take. The PDF even has a monk archetype that lets them get more evolution points and flurry with their natural attacks easily.

Alternatively, another third party option is the Aegis from Dreamscarred Press' Psionics. Specifically the Aberant archetype. It doesn't get claws, but it does allow you to get Tentacles. If you take one, you could probably just fluff it to be a tail. (Beaten to it)

As for Paizo stuff, I think you have it all down basically. There may one or two others, but if so, I can't think of it.


Where can I find this Warped race? Google isn't helping and you didn't give a book or publisher name.

Silver Crusade

There's also the protean prowler vigilante archetype from my Legendary Vigilante archetype if you want to check that out. 10 evo points over 20 levels and the ability to use them to transform into other creatures that can also use those evo points.
