Class Features

Soul Binding: At each scion of Dantalion level, your soul binding ability improves as if you had also gained a level in the binder class. Thus, your scion of Dantalion levels and binder levels stack for the purpose of determining your bonus on binding checks, the effectiveness of your vestige-granted abilities, your ability to bind higher-level vestiges, and the number of vestiges you can bind. You do not, however, gain any other benefit a binder would have gained.

Favored of Dantalion (Ex): You need never worry about succumbing to Dantalion's influence because you automatically succeed on the binding check when making a pact with him. You can hide or show Dantalion's sign as desired, as though you possessed the suppress sign class feature (see page 11).

With each new level you take in the scion of Dantalion prestige class, Dantalion's seal (see page 28) includes another face. Thus, the sign appears as two vestigial faces on your torso at 1st level and as six faces at 5th level. When you activate an ability granted by Dantalion or by the scion of Dantalion prestige class, the eyes and mouths of the faces briefly open to reveal distant stars set in darkness.

Scholarship of Dantalion (Su): Your connection to Dantalion gives you occasional flashes of insight into a variety of topics. Once per day per scion of Dantalion level, you can reroll any Knowledge check you just made. You must abide by the result of the reroll, even if it's worse than the original roll.

Improved Read Thoughts (Su): The DC of the read thoughts ability granted by Dantalion increases by 2.

Swift Awe of Dantalion (Su): Beginning at 2nd level, you can activate your awe of Dantalion ability as a swift action instead of a move action whenever you are bound to that vestige. Once you have used this ability, you cannot do so again for 5 rounds.

Overwhelming Thoughts (Su): Beginning at 3rd level, you can choose to overwhelm the thoughts of any creature you target with the read thoughts ability granted by Dantalion. As a standard action, you send your thoughts out to a single creature whose thoughts you are reading (so it has already failed its Will save against your read thoughts ability), forcing it to succeed on a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 your effective binder level + your Cha modifier) or be dazed for 1d4 rounds. During this time, you can maintain concentration on your read thoughts ability and, as a move action, continue to read the thoughts of a creature you have dazed on subsequent rounds. A successful save allows the creature to break free of your thought reading.

Dantalion's Glare (Su): From 4th level on, you can use a standard action to intensify Dantalion's sign and glare through its eyes. The starry voids in the eyes of Dantalion's sign blaze forth with the brightness of an exploding star, affecting all creatures in a 30-foot cone. Every creature within this area must succeed on a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 your effective binder level + your Cha modifier) or be blinded for 1d4 rounds.

You must be showing at least one face of Dantalion's sign to use this ability. If the face is hidden beneath clothing, you can reveal it as a free action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, so long as you have a hand free. If the face is hidden beneath armor, you must have a free hand and use a standard action to reveal the sign. Doing so provokes attacks of opportunity, and you take a —2 penalty to AC while revealing the sign in this manner.

Once you have used this ability, you cannot do so again for 5 rounds.

Improved Thought Travel (Su): Beginning at 4th level, you can use the thought travel ability granted by Dantalion as a move action.

Read Multiple Thoughts (Su): When you attain 5th level, the increased strength of your connection with Dantalion allows you to simultaneously target a number of creatures equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 2) with the read thoughts ability granted by Dantalion. Each of the targets must be within range (5 feet per effective binder level). You can use this ability in combination with either your improved read thoughts or your overwhelming thoughts class feature, or both.
