Acolyte of the Skin

(PRESTIGE CLASS)
The thirst for power drives some people to extreme lengths, regardless of the consequences. Though it is hard to believe that any living being would willingly bond the skin of a living demon to their own, that is exactly what the Acolyte of the Skin is willing to attempt in their pursuit for power.

Through this diabolic act of symbiosis, the Acolyte hopes to gain infernal power, heedless of the possible consequences to their own soul and psyche. For who knows what may happen as the bond between Acolyte and skin grows stronger and the full power of infernal darkness is unleashed.

- Hit Die: d4.
- Proficiencies: An Acolyte of the Skin does not gain any additional weapon or armor proficiencies.
- Skill Points: 2 + Int Modifier.

REQUIREMENTS:

Arcane Spellcasting: Able to cast 3rd-level arcane spells.

Alignment: Any non-good.

BONUS SPELLS

Every other level in Acolyte of the Skin, the character gains new spells per day as if they had also gained a level in their highest arcane caster class. No new spells are learned through this ability, however.
