Summary

Dwarves know more secrets about stone than anyone. They live and die among the stones, and the earth whispers to them - or at least to select individuals. These special dwarves are known as stonelords. They use their connection with the earth to draw from the infinite reserves of power within it to help them perform amazing feats.

Fighters are the most common stonelords, although dwarf paladins and rangers adopt the mantle as well. Though uncommon, dwarf rogues, clerics, and even the occasional wizard or sorcerer become stonelords.

NPC stonelords work in dwarven communities as protectors and leaders. Occasionally they work in groups, but even then, their varied backgrounds and chosen powers make them all very different.

Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Stonelord.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A Stonelord is proficient with whatever they were already proficient with prior to taking levels in this class.

Earth's BloodSp: Once per day, a stonelord can take a standard action to heal her own wounds using a clump of mud. This ability heals a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + her stonelord class level.

Stone Power: At every even-numbered level, a stonelord can choose one ability from the following list of stone powers. No stone power can be chosen more than once. Unless otherwise noted, the stonelord uses her class level as the caster level for these effects (the save DCs are Constitution-based). Using one of these abilities is a standard action unless otherwise noted.

EarthgripSp: Once per day, a stonelord with this ability can use hold monster on any target touching the ground. If the opponent is airborne or waterborne, the stonelord cannot affect the creature with the spell.

Earth MagicSu: Once per day, a spell cast by a stonelord with this ability (assuming she can cast spells) is considered maximized as if prepared with the Maximize Spell feat, although the spell’s level is unaffected. The spell’s level cannot be higher than the class level of the stonelord. Using this ability is a free action.

Earth's EnduranceSp: Once per day, a stonelord with this ability grants herself a boost to her Constitution score as if she were affected by a Bear’s Endurance spell for 1 hour.

Earth's StrengthSp: Once per day, a stonelord with this ability grants herself a boost to her Strength score as if she were affected by a bull’s strength spell for 1 hour.

Earth's PowerSu: Once per day, all melee attacks made in a single round by a stonelord with this ability gain a +2 bonus on the attack roll and deal an extra 2d6 points of damage on a successful hit. Using this ability is a free action.

Earth ShadowsSu: Once per day per class level, a stonelord with this ability can create a figment of a Medium earth elemental that appears in a flanking position adjacent to the stonelord’s opponent for 1 round. This ability allows the stonelord to make flanking attacks (+2 to hit, can make a sneak attack if such ability is available) against that opponent during that round. Using this ability is a free action.

GravitySp: Once per day, a stonelord with this ability can use a Slow effect (as the spell).

StoneskinSp: Once per day, a stonelord with this ability can give herself the benefit of a Stoneskin spell (caster level equal to the stonelord’s class level). The character must provide the material component as if she were actually casting the spell.

Summon Earth ElementalSp: Once per day, a stone lord with this ability can summon an earth elemental as if she had cast a summon monster spell. The size of the summoned earth elemental depends on the stonelord’s class level, as follows: 1st–3rd, Small; 4th–6th, Medium; 7th–9th, Large; 10th, Huge.

Stone ShapeSp: Once per day, a stonelord of 3rd level or higher can use a Stone Shape effect (caster level equal to the stonelord’s class level).
