Shaman Elf Favored Class Bonus and Prehensile hair


Rules Questions


Elf Shaman FCB:

Quote:
Add 5 feet to the range of a chosen shaman hex. Multiple bonuses from this ability can apply to the same hex, to a maximum of an additional 30 feet for any single hex.
Shaman Hex (Witch Hex):
Quote:
The shaman selects any one hex normally available through the witch's hex class feature. She treats her shaman level as her witch level when determining the powers and abilities of the hex. She uses her Wisdom modifier in place of her Intelligence modifier for the hex. She cannot select major hexes or grand hexes using this ability. The shaman cannot select a witch hex that has the same name as a shaman hex.
Prehensile Hair (Su):
Quote:
The witch can instantly cause her hair (or even her eyebrows) to grow up to 10 feet long or to shrink to its normal length, and can manipulate her hair as if it were a limb with a Strength score equal to her Intelligence score. Her hair has reach 10 feet, and she can use it as a secondary natural attack that deals 1d3 points of damage (1d2 for a Small witch)[...]

1) So, can I make my hair grow up to 40ft long by taking that FCB 6 times?

a) Is it within RAI/RAW to interchange the words range and reach?
b) Does the Prehensile Hair Hex become a Shaman Hex, when taken through the Shaman Hex (Witch Hex)?

2) How fun would that be? (Even with the Feral Combat Training nerf)


1) No,
1a)f!+$ no,
1b)yes,
2) F@#$ yes,


The Prehensile Hair Hex doesn't have a range so there isn't anything to increase. When you use it, your hair has reach of 10', but the reach of the hair is not the same as the range of the hex.

You have to admit, it does seem Elf-appropriate.
