Monoclass

Psionic Archer

“There is no way we are exploring those creepy ruins without someone who can use a bow.” A young human woman in flowing purple robes growled to the tall man in full plate who stood beside her. He raised a brow slightly in bemusement, as he turned to her, the proud symbol of Pelor engraved into the chest of his armor glinting in the sun

-“I can use a bow just fine.” the heavily scarred dwarf sitting next to them interjected, as he sharpened the large axe which rested across his lap.

The woman furrowed her eyes at him, the dirty look directed back at her within moments by the now surly dwarf.

-“Perhaps, but being proficient and being good with a bow are two different things.” A halfling woman in tight fitted leathers and furs for warmth interposed, jumped between the two. The swift motion was met with the clatter of her twin shortswords as they the hard stone floor. The three turned back to meet the gaze of the wizard seated next to them. He had a cup of tea nestled gently in his palms that he was about to sip from

-“What, did you expect me to catch them?” He snapped, the man defended himself from the apparently accusatory glares.

The woman sighed aloud, her fingers laced into her robe sleeves before she spoke again. “The point is, if the maps we found of the ruins are true, we will need an expert archer to deal with some of the traps.”

-“Perhaps I could be of help then.” A voice called from the tavern doorway. The group of five saw a lithe, though fit looking older human male, stark white hair and with a longbow over his shoulder.

-“I also happen to know of your ruins. And I have…other expertise that will be useful there, that your maps do not detail…”

Goal

Psychic Warriors are fighters who can use psionic powers. Psionic powers make this class quite versatile in its abilities, allowing it flexibility a specialized fighter does not have. This specific build focuses on Archery, and with Greater Psionic Shot and Fell Shot, you can use your higher than usual PP Pool via Kalashtar to attack against Touch AC and deal heightened damage. You have powers that allow you to get larger (for even more damage) and increase your melee capabilities, allowing you to switch to your rapier and shield and get in the thick of a battle in the blink of an eye.
