Archetype (Bladebound) Abilities
--------------------
• (3) Black Blade (Ex):
At 3rd level, the bladebound magus’ gains a powerful sentient weapon called a black blade, whose weapon type is chosen by the magus. A magus with this class feature cannot take the familiar magus arcana, and cannot have a familiar of any kind, even from another class.

Instead of the normal arcane pool amount, the bladebound magus’s arcane pool has a number of points equal to 1/3 his level (minimum 1) plus his Intelligence bonus. This ability changes the Arcane Pool class feature and replaces the magus arcana gained at 3rd level.
--------------------
Blackblade Abilities
--------------------
• (Base) Black Blade Arcane Pool (1/day): A black blade has an arcane pool with a number of points equal to 1 + its Intelligence bonus.
• (1) Alertness (Ex): While a magus is wielding his black blade, he gains the Alertness feat.
• (1) Black Blade Strike +1(Sp): As a free action, the magus can spend a point from the black blade’s arcane pool to grant the black blade a +1 bonus on damage rolls for 1 minute. For every four levels beyond 1st, this ability gives the black blade another +1 on damage rolls.
• (1) Telepathy (Su): While a magus is wielding or carrying his black blade, he can communicate telepathically with the blade in a language that the magus and the black blade share.
• (1) Unbreakable (Ex): As long as it has at least 1 point in its arcane pool, a black blade is immune to the broken condition. If broken, the black blade is unconscious and powerless until repaired. If destroyed, the black blade can be reforged 1 week later through a special ritual that costs 200 gp per magus level. The ritual takes 24 hours to complete.
--------------------
Archetype (Kensai) Abilities
--------------------
• (1) Diminished Spellcasting: A kensai may cast one fewer spell of each level than normal. If this reduces the number to 0, he may cast spells of that level only if his Intelligence allows bonus spells of that level.
• (1) Canny Defense +4 (Ex): At 1st level, when a kensai is wielding his chosen weapon, he gains the canny defense ability. This is identical to the duelist prestige class ability of the same name (Core Rulebook 382), save that his chosen weapon may be of any type.
• (1) Weapon Focus (Ex): At 1st level, a kensai gains Weapon Focus with his chosen weapon as a bonus feat.
• (4) Perfect Strike (Ex): At 4th level, when a kensai hits with his chosen weapon, he can spend 1 point from his arcane pool in order to maximize his weapon damage. Don’t roll for damage—the weapon deals maximum damage. This affects only the weapon’s base damage dice, not additional damage from sneak attack, magical weapon properties, spellstrike, or critical hits.

If the kensai confirms a critical hit, he can instead spend 2 points from his arcane pool to increase his weapon’s critical multiplier by 1. This ability replaces spell recall.
--------------------
Race (Elf) Abilities
--------------------
• Elven Immunities: Elves are immune to magic sleep effects and get a +2 racial bonus on saving throws against enchantment spells and effects.
• Creepy: For some elves, their long, slender limbs and large pupils evoke not attraction, but unease in other humanoids. Non-elf humanoids take a –1 penalty on saving throws against spells these elves cast that cause confusion or fear. In addition, elves with this trait gain a +2 racial bonus on Intimidate checks to demoralize. This racial trait replaces elven magic.
• Fleet-Footed: While all elves are naturally lithe and agile, some also are naturally speedy and have a strong desire to rush into situations rather than worrying about looking ahead. Elves with this racial trait receive Run as a bonus feat and a +2 racial bonus on initiative checks. This racial trait replaces keen senses and weapon familiarity.
• Favored Class Bonus (Magus): The magus gains 1/6 of a new magus arcana.

The Solstice Scar, Version A:
• [ ] Belkzen Veteran:
You have crossed the Hold of Belkzen, negotiated with the orc representatives, and clashed with opportunistic raiders. You can spend 2 Prestige Points to learn Orc as a bonus language. In addition, you can check the box that precedes this boon to gain the benefits of the orc ferocity half-orc racial trait for 1 round. If you already have this racial trait and activate that ability, you can check the box to act normally as though you did not have the disabled condition for 1 round.
• [ ] Martyr’s Shard 1:
The paladin Ivvora wielded a powerful dagger in service to her angelic patron, Vildeis. In helping recover and restore the hilt, you are able to begin imbuing a facsimile of the blade to combat evil on your own terms.
As a free action, you can check the box that precedes this boon to grant one weapon you wield a +1 enhancement bonus (does not stack with other enhancement bonuses) and the ability to overcome damage reduction and regeneration as a cold iron, good-aligned weapon for 1 minute.

Any character with this boon can choose to purchase an avenging dagger (120,604 gp; functions as a holy avenger but is a dagger rather than a longsword) as though her effective Fame were 10 higher. If this character has earned two, three, or all four Martyr’s Shard boons, reduce the cost of an avenging dagger to 110,604 gp, 100,604 gp, or 90,604 gp respectively.
• [ ] Scarred Champion:
Vildeis grants the strength to endure pain to strike down evil, and in escorting Ivvora’s hilt back to the Twinhorn following, you now carry a spark of that empyreal lord’s divine resilience. When you would fail a saving throw against the spell or spell-like ability of an undead creature, you can check the box that precedes this boon to roll 1d6 and increase the saving throw result by that amount. If the bonus is enough to turn the failure into a success, the saving throw succeeds. This near-death experience leaves you with a hand-sized scar somewhere on your body—a reminder of Vildeis’s assistance.

Ungrounded but Unbroken
• Earth Affinity:
Your connection to elemental earth has grown stronger over the course of your recent adventures. This boon has no mechanical effect on its own, but it may interact with other boons or play a role in future adventures—especially those set on the elemental planes.

If you are not trained in the skill, you may instead check a box to treat yourself as if you were trained in the skill. You must choose to apply this bonus before rolling. When you check the last box, cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet.

The Solstice Scar, Version B:
• [ ] Frozen Fortitude:
Even the coldest wilderness could not fell you. Now you are prepared to endure freezing attacks or even draw strength from the snow. As a swift action, you can check the box that precedes this boon to gain cold resistance equal to 5 + your character level for 1 minute. You can activate this boon as an immediate action, but doing so grants you only cold resistance equal to your character level. Alternatively, if you have cold resistance as a result of a racial trait or class feature, you can check this box as a swift action to regain a number of hit points equal to your cold resistance; if you are immune to cold, you regain 30 hit points.
• [ ] Martyr's Shard 2:
The paladin Ivvora wielded a powerful dagger in service to her angelic patron, Vildeis. By helping recover and restore the hilt, you are able to begin imbuing a facsimile of the blade to combat evil on your own terms.
Otherwise, as a free action, you can check the box that precedes this boon to grant one weapon you wield a +1 enhancement bonus (which does not stack with other enhancement bonuses) and the ability to overcome damage reduction and regeneration as per a cold iron, good-aligned weapon for 1 minute.
• [ ] Triumph Over Scales:
You have braved the Realm of the Mammoth Lords, not only defeating a tribe of kobolds but also slaying their white dragon overlords. You can spend 2 Prestige Points to learn Draconic as a bonus language. In addition, you can check the box that precedes this boon when you threaten a critical hit against a dragon or humanoid with the reptilian subtype to gain a +10 insight bonus on the attack roll to confirm the critical hit. Alternatively, you can check the box when a dragon or humanoid with the reptilian subtype would confirm a critical hit against you in order to gain the benefits of the heavy fortification armor special ability against that attack.

The Solstice Scar, Version C:
• Blight Bane:
As a swift action, you can challenge an animal, plant, or vermin creature that you can see, gaining special bonuses against that foe for a number of rounds equal to yom Wisdom modifier (minimum 1 round). You gain a +1 bonus on attack rolls against that foe, and your weapons and spells deal an additional 1d6 damage against it. The bonus on attacks and damage increase to +2 and 2d6 respectively if the creature also has the fiendish simple template. You can instead grant these benefits to an adjacent ally as a move action, using your Wisdom bonus to determine its duration. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
• [ ] Fangwood Purifier:
You have vanquished the blighted infestation growing in part of the Fangwood, and in time the flora, fauna, and fey will recover. You can spend 2 Prestige Points to learn Sylvan as a bonus language. In addition, you can check the box that precedes this boon to attempt a wild empathy check (Pathfinder Core Rulebook 50) to influence an animal or magical beast, treating your character level as your druid level for this purpose. If you already have the wild empathy class feature or a similar ability, you can instead check the box to roll the check twice and take the higher result.
• [ ] Martyr's Shard 3:
The paladin Ivvora wielded a powerful dagger in service to her angelic patron, Vildeis. By helping cleanse the battlefield where she first earned Vildeis's favor, you have secured that empyreal lord's assistance in a time of need-particularly when battling evil.
Otherwise, as a free action, you can check the box that precedes this boon to grant one weapon you wield a +1 enhancement bonus (which does not stack with other enhancement bonuses), and it grants you a +1 bonus on caster level checks to overcome the spell resistance of evil creatures for 1 minute. During this time, attacks with this weapon also ignore the first 5 points of damage reduction possessed by undead creatures.

The Solstice Scar, Version D:
• [ ][ ][ ] Blood and Courage:
As long as your current hit point total is less than half your maximum hit points, you gain a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks against evil creatures and a +2 bonus on saving throws against fear. While benefiting from these bonuses, you can check one box that precedes this boon to demoralize all evil creatures in a 15-foot cone as a standard action.
• [ ] Empyreal Revenant Nothing can keep you from achieving your goal. Within 3 rounds of dying, you can check the box that precedes this boon to begin slowly recovering, fueled by a combination of personal determination and supernatural vigor. During this time, you cannot be turned into an undead creature. After 1 minute, you are restored to life per raise dead with half your maximum hit points, gaining no negative levels in the process. If you died as a result of ability damage or drain, you either remove 8 points of that ability damage or remove enough ability drain to return that ability score to 8 (though no higher than your original ability score value). If you died as a result of negative levels, you remove a number of temporary negative levels equal to half your level (rounded up).
At the end of the adventure, your relentless grip on life fails, your body collapses, and you die; this death is not the result of hit point loss and cannot be reversed by effects such as breath of life. The cost of any spellcasting service to restore you to life at the end of that adventure is reduced by 3 Prestige Points for each unique Martyr's Shard boon this character has earned. If a PC casts a spell to restore you to life at the end of the adventure, instead reduce the material component cost by 1,000 gp for each unique Martyr's Shard boon this character has earned.
• [ ] Martyr's Shard 4: The paladin lvvora wielded a powerful dagger in service to her angelic patron, Vildeis. By helping cleanse the battlefield where she first earned Vildeis's favor, you have secured that empyreal lord's assistance in a time of need-particularly when battling evil.
Otherwise, as a free action, you can check the box that precedes this boon to grant one weapon you wield a +1 enhancement bonus (which does not stack with other enhancement bonuses), and it grants you a +1 bonus on caster level checks to overcome the spell resistance of evil creatures for 1 minute. During this time, attacks with this weapon also ignore the first 5 points of undead creatures' damage reduction.

Description
--------------------
An older elf with a lithe frame built for speed over strength. Brown hair streaked with grey is pulled tightly back into a ponytail settling between his shoulder-blades. Deep eyes are focused on a single goal...there is always a goal to reach.

Equal parts enthusiasm and arrogance when given the opportunity to showcase his skill-set. He wields a dark weapon found beneath the Mordant Spire. It is said to move with a mind of its own as it pulls enemies of the Mordant elves off their feet.
--------------------
Background
--------------------
Born to a once prestigious house of elves in Kyonin, House Cerin. Arcane researchers that took on the mission of seeking out the treasures of their kin at the Mordant Spire. The house was left weakened as many members chose to stay delving further into the depths of the Azlanti ruins. With his house weakened by their absence Malvic tossed aside the name and traveled to confront his family who he viewed as abandoning their home.

The rage he felt was redirected when upon arrival he was informed many members of his old house were lost in an excavation. Unsatisfied with the account he pressed on interrogating researchers and archaeologists with force if needed. On one occasion it led him to cross blades with the Spire Defenders who apprehended him. He would receive his answers but could still not quench his rage.

Altovin Lanrel, a Spire Defender, recounted the events of the expedition where his family including his parents were lost. Within a new wing discovered deep under the spire they were looking to retrieve old tomes preserved with magic. While preparing the items for transport an Aboleth caved in the hallway adjacent to the library trapping the researchers. The defenders unable to get through the rubble looked for a way around but found it too late and the remaining elves had been taken further below.

Malvic vowed to strike out at the Aboleths and not fail as their defenders had. He spent countless years in research growing cold and determined. When not in the libraries he was his martial skills eventually catching the eyes of the Spire Defenders once again resulting in his brief acceptance among their ranks. However between his disdain for their failure to stop his family from being taken and his thirst for revenge he would soon be pushed out of the order.

He now works with the Dark Archive as a means to find more tools to fight the Aboleths and grow in strength. His relationship with the Blakros Museum has grown from this goal as they have the means to purchase things he cannot, yet.
