Caveborn Warlock
Add the Climb and Knowledge (dungeon) skills as class skills. You may use Knowledge (dungeon) to orient yourself through caves and underground and to locate cave hazards. The invocation otherwordly whispers gives a bonus on Knowledge (dungeon) checks also.

At level 3rd your climb speed from the spiderclimb invocation increases by 10 feet (3 meters). You gain a bonus on saves against effects with the earth descriptor and cave hazards equal to +4. By level 7th you gain a +4 bonus on saves against mind-affecting effects. By level 11th you gain tremorsense out of 10 feet (3 meters) and a +4 on saves against transmutation effects. By level 15th your tremorsense increases to 20 feet (6 meters). By level 19th you gain a +4 bonus against divination effects.
- Web Mind: This feature works as fiendish resilience and substitutes it, as well as all of its improvement. As a free action you may gain telepathy. This effect lasts for 2 minutes or a number of minutes equal to its Charisma modifier, whichever is higher. You may communicate with any intelligent creature within 20 feet (6 meters) telepathically. They may answer back by thinking. By level 13th the range increases to 30 feet (9 meters) and to 40 feet (12 meters) by level 18th. You may split the time in multiple uses. You may only communicate with one target per Charisma modifier (minimum one), chosen when you activate this effect.
Special: If you have a natural climb speed (or if you have it by virtue of class or template) you may forgo the invocation requirement and all bonuses to spiderclimb apply to your climb speed. You are also immune to the effects of webs.
