Water elemental-kin (new class)

  Elemental-kin were created by the djinn to be their slaves by binding the shard of an elemental to the soul of a mortal. Modern elemental-kin are the descendants of those slaves who were traded with the elves of the summer court and brought into the mundane world. Of the four types of elemental-kin the water elemental-kin are considered the spiritual leaders of their people and the most likely to believe that a way can be found to return elemental-kin to their home plane.

Deity disfavour: Water elemental-kin must be faithful to the tenets of their alignment, clergy, and religion. Water elemental-kin who fall from favour with their deity may incur penalties.

Magical research: A water elemental-kin of any level may spend time and money on magical research. This allows them to create new spells or other magical effects associated with their deity. On reaching 9th level, water elemental-kin are also able to create magic items.

Spell casting: A water elemental-kin may pray to receive spells from their deity. The power and number of spells available to a water elemental-kin are determined by the character’s experience level. Water elemental-kin cast spells from cleric spell list .

After Reaching 9th Level

A water elemental-kin may establish or build a stronghold. So long as the water elemental-kin is currently in favour with their god, a stronghold may be bought or built at half the normal price, due to divine intervention.

Once a stronghold is established, the Water elemental-kin will attract followers (5d6 × 10 elemental-kin

of level 1–2). These troops are completely devoted to the water elemental-kin, never checking

morale. The referee decides which proportions of followers are 1st and 2nd level and which are air, earth, fire or water elemental-kin.
