Soul-SuffusedEdit

Incarnum is the energy of souls. Sometimes, a creature is born with a highly energetic soul, one that taps into incarnum with ease.

Creating a Soul-SuffusedEdit

Soul-suffused is an inherited template that can be applied to any creature.

Size and TypeEdit

Size and type do not change. A soul-suffused creature gains the [Incarnum] subtype.

Hit DiceEdit

Hit Dice do not change.

SpeedEdit

Speed does not change.

Armor ClassEdit

A soul-suffused creature can use its soul as armor. It has a default natural armor bonus of +0, but can increase its natural armor by investing essentia into it (+2 per point of essentia).

AttackEdit

A soul-suffused creature neither gains nor loses natural weapons or the ability to use manufactured weapons.

Full AttackEdit

The base creature's full attack routine doesn't change.

Special AttacksEdit

A soul-suffused creature can invest essentia into a natural weapon or unarmed strike to deal damage as though it were one size category larger per point of invested essentia. If the base creature has multiple natural weapons (including more than one of a natural weapon, such as 2 claws), it must invest essentia separately into each.

Special QualitiesEdit

A soul-suffused creature can invest essentia into its saving throws to gain a resistance bonus of +1 per invested essentia point. Essentia is invested into each saving throw separately.

A soul-suffused creature has an essentia pool of 2 points. If it already has an essentia pool, increase its existing essentia pool by 2 points.

A soul-suffused creature that can shape soulmelds can shape 1 additional soulmeld.

AbilitiesEdit

+1 Constitution.

SkillsEdit

A soul-suffused creature can invest essentia into a skill to gain an insight bonus of +2 per invested essentia point. Each skill is treated as a separate essentia receptacle.

FeatsEdit

A soul-suffused creature neither gains nor loses any feats by virtue of the template.

EnvironmentEdit

Soul-suffused creatures dwell anywhere where the base creature would, though they tend to be drawn to incarnum-rich areas.

OrganizationEdit

Soul-suffused creatures can be found in any society or organization that the base creature would, though they are often drawn towards groups that utilize incarnum, such as the Sapphire Hierarchs.

Challenge RatingEdit

+2

TreasureEdit

As base creature.

AlignmentEdit

As base creature.

AdvancementEdit

As base creature (either HD or character class).

Level AdjustmentEdit

+2
