Student of the Tapestry (Arcanist)

The lightless void between stars may not be an empty as it may seem. Few mages dare delve into the eldritch mysteries of the Dark Tapestry; risking both their sanities and lives. Researching the strange magic originating where the sane dare not look remains a task for mages both brilliant and reckless.

Mind Warp (Su)

Beginning at 3rd level the student of the tapestry learns to warp his mind, mimicking that of the alien forces he is accustomed to. A student of the tapestry that consumes an arcanist spell slot using his consume spells ability, may choose to shield his mind from outside influence instead of regaining points to his arcane reservoir. Bolstering his mental defenses this way takes a standard action instead of the move action it normally takes. If student of the tapestry chooses to shield his mind, he gains an insight bonus to will saves against mind affecting effects equal to the level of the spell slot sacrificed for three rounds.

A student of the tapestry may expend a point from his arcane reservoir to consume a spell slot to warp his mind as an immediate action.

This ability replaces the arcane exploit gained at 3rd level.

Alien Conjuration

Beginning at 5th level the student of the tapestry learns to summon a host of monsters, with ties to the dark tapestry, he would normally not be able to call upon with summon monster spells. See table 1.0 Alien Conjuration for the additional monsters he may summon.

This ability replaces the arcane exploit gained at 5th level.

Spell Additional Monsters Summon Monster II Akata Summon Monster III Yeth Hound Summon Monster V Hound of Tindalos Summon Monster VI Denizen of Leng, Intellect Devourer Summon Monster VII Aboleth, Yethian Summon Monster VIII Moon Beast Summon Monster IX Spawn of yog-sothoth, Young Vortex Dragon

Summons from Beyond (Su)

Beginning at 9th level, whenever the student of the tapestry casting a summon monster spell he may expend two points from his arcane pool to grant the summoned creature the advanced and entropic templates. If you summon more than one creature with a single spell only one of those creatures gains the templates.

The summoned creature takes on a deformed alien appearance; only barely recognizable by the few bodily traits that remain distinguishable from its normal appearance.

This ability replaces the arcane exploit gained at 9th level.

Survivor of the Void (Ex)

Beginning at 13th level the student of the tapestry no longer needs to eat or breathe to survive.

This ability replaces the arcane exploit gained at 13th level.

Interstellar Mage

At 19th level the student of the tapestry gain the limited star flight universal monster ability. An arcanist

This replaces the arcane exploit gained at 19th level.

Star Spawn Caller (Sp)

At 20th level the student of the tapestry learns to call one of the most powerful servants of the Dark Tapestry.

By expending 5 points from his arcane pool, the student of the tapestry may call a star-spawn of cthulu into the material plane. This spell-like ability functions as the gate spell, except the student of the tapestry may call only one creature, the star-spawn of cthulu. The student of the tapestry does not need to have the material components or any additional offerings to call the star-spawn of cthulu as it always appears, answering the student of the tapestry’s call. If the student of the tapestry would use this spell-like ability more than once within the time span of a week the student of the tapestry takes 1d10 Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma damage from the mental strain needed to invoke this ability in such a short time span.

The student of the tapestry is immune to all the mind-affecting effects of the star spawn of cthulu called this way. Even though he has no direct control over the star spawn, it will not intentionally cause any harm to the student of the tapestry, treating him as though he didn’t exist at all.

This ability replaces magical supremacy.
