===Making a Wind Mage===

'''Races:''' Any.

*'''{{Anchor|Tornado Cloak Sweep}} {{Su}}:''' At 11th level, the wind mage becomes still better at working around his tornado cloak's drawbacks. The penalty to attack rolls is reduced to −4, and the wind mage can strike with enough precision to score [[SRD:Standard Actions#Critical Hits|critical hits]] ''some'' of the time; if he threatens a critical hit with his tornado cloak active, he is allowed to confirm it, but there is a 50% chance that the critical hit will not actually be a critical hit (rolled after and separately from [[SRD:Fortification|fortification]]). Other precision-based attacks, such as [[SRD:Rogue#Sneak Attack|sneak attacks]], also suffer from a 50% failure chance while the tornado cloak is active (but that's still better than the 100% failure rate they had before!).

At 1st level, he can select one invocation known, and an additional invocation at 2nd and every odd level. At first, he may only select from least invocations. At level 7, he may select from least or lesser invocations. At level 13, he may select from least, lesser, or greater invocations. Finally, at level 19th and beyond, he may select from least, lesser, greater, or final invocations. At every even level, he may choose to switch out one of his invocations known for another, so long as the invocation swapped is the same or lower level invocation as the original. He may only swap out one invocation at each even level. Any saving throws are [[Charisma]]-based. Essences which force a save against an effect only need one save each round, regardless of how many times you hit. Wind mages choose their invocations from the following list¹.

At 6th level and every three levels beyond, he gains another +10 bonus to his base land speed.

At 8th level, the wind mage can grant the [[High Frequency (3.5e Equipment)|''high frequency'' enhancement]] to his weapons, stacking with the actual ''high frequency'' enhancement.

'''{{Anchor|Wind Without Air}} {{Su}}:''' At 6th level, a wind mage can generate air from out of nothing, allowing him to use <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Special:SearchByProperty/Descriptor/Air|Air]]<nowiki>]</nowiki> effects in places where it shouldn't be possible, such as strongly earth-dominant areas and the vacuum of space. He can breathe comfortably in such places (as well as anywhere else [[SRD:Environment#Slow Suffocation|that breathable air isn't normally easy or even possible to procure]], such as [[SRD:Environment#Water Dangers|underwater]]) and generate enough oxygen for as much as one Medium creature (other than himself) per class level to survive indefinitely. (This only protects the wind mage and other creatures from [[SRD:Environment#Suffocation|suffocation]]; it doesn't protect them from ''other'' dangers of total vacuum or burial, such as [[SRD:Environment#Cold Dangers|lack of heat]] or being crushed. It also doesn't prevent suffocation due to blockage or damage to the respiratory system, such as being strangled or having one's lungs ripped out.)

'''{{Anchor|Wind Aura}} {{Su}}:''' At 10th level, a wind mage can manipulate wind which he isn't responsible for. The wind mage effectively grants [[SRD:Spell Resistance|spell resistance]] equal to 10 + his HD to himself and all allies within 30 feet, but only against <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Special:SearchByProperty/Descriptor/Air|Air]]<nowiki>]</nowiki> effects or effects that involve the manipulation of gas or [[SRD:Weather#Winds|wind]] (such as [[SRD:Stinking Cloud|''stinking cloud'']], ''scalding wind'', etc.). If an opponent fails to breach this spell resistance, the wind mage takes control and can shape the wind/gas as he sees fit, placing holes, channels, and other parts of safety and suppressing winds and harmful gases completely while in the aura. Winds and gases so suppressed return once out of range of your aura if their duration has not expired.

'''''{{Anchor|Wind Catapult}}'' {{Sp}}:''' At 15th level, the wind mage can generate a massive buildup of air to attempt to get a creature or group of creatures out of his hair. As a full-round action, the wind mage may select a point in space within Medium range and generate a buildup of kinetic energy near it, in any direction that he desires. Without warning, he causes the built-up energy to erupt in a geyser of roaring wind (which happens roughly at the end of his turn), forcing all creatures within a 50-foot, cube-shaped burst centered on the selected point in space to make a [[Reflex]] save (DC = 18 + [[Charisma]] before applying [[#Air Power|Air Power]]) or else be launched 50 feet per caster level in a direction of the wind mage's choice, including straight up, straight down, a direct horizontal line parallel to the ground, or... well, in any orientation, really. The victim is not affected by gravity until its forced movement ends (this is ''not'' an [[Arc of Effect (3.5e Variant Rule)|arc of effect]]). If a victim collides with an obstacle during its forced movement, both the creature and the obstacle take 1d6 damage per 20 feet remaining in the victim's forced movement; if this destroys the obstacle, the victim continues traveling outwards, but if it doesn't, the victim's movement is interrupted, and it drops to the ground (taking the appropriate [[SRD:Falling|fall damage]]) and falls [[SRD:Prone|prone]]. A creature that is in midair at the end of its forced movement is entitled to a second [[Reflex]] save to stabilize itself if it is capable of [[SRD:Fly|flight]], [[Hover (3.5e Creature Ability)|hovering]], or otherwise modifying its momentum in midair; this secondary Reflex save is made at a +2 bonus per step above average maneuverability, a &minus;2 penalty per step below average maneuverability, or a &minus;6 penalty if the creature has a means of modifying its midair momentum other than flight or hovering, such as [[Double Jump (3.5e Creature Ability)|double jumping]], as such methods are even clumsier than clumsy flying or hovering. If the secondary [[Reflex]] save succeeds, the creature can begin flying, hovering, or otherwise modifying its midair momentum at any point before hitting the ground; if the secondary Reflex save fails, or the creature has no way to modify its momentum in midair, it falls down to the ground, taking the appropriate [[SRD:Falling|falling damage]] and falling [[SRD:Prone|prone]]. A creature in midair that is blown to the ground is able to make a [[Reflex]] save to stabilize itself as above if it is capable of doing so and its forced movement ends before it hits the ground; if it hits the ground during its forced movement, it takes 2d6 points of [[SRD:Falling|falling damage]] per [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] of the wind mage (bypassing the usual calculation and 20d6 limit) and lands [[SRD:Prone|prone]], as the force of the wind mage's downdraft propels victims to speeds well above terminal velocity. Note that a downdraft does next to nothing to a creature that's already on the ground; the only noteworthy effect is knocking the victim [[SRD:Prone|prone]], though this happens forcefully enough to inflict 1d6 damage per 2 [[SRD:Caster Level|caster levels]]. ''Wind Catapult'' counts as an 8th-level spell (already accounted for in the DC) with the [Air] descriptor, and can be used once per minute. Its caster level is equal to the wind mage's class level (before applying [[#Air Power|Air Power]]).

As a standard action, the wind mage may use ''[[SRD:Plane Shift|plane shift]]'' to transport himself and willing allies to his demiplane or the Elemental Plane of Air, and back to the last location he used this ability from. He may use this at will, and cannot send the unwilling.
