The Signer
The Elite Among the Sign of One


        The Sign of One has a simple philosophy, but one that leads to complicated affects, and many cutters thinking their stuck-up egoists.  Signers believe that one of them is the true center of the multiverse, and that person's imagination is responsable for all existance.  The problems come up in that each Signer believes that he or she is that center of the multiverse.  Only one could be right, but it continues to work somehow.  They believe that they can make things happen, and strangely, reality does seem to prove them right more often than not.  To make it to this level of membership (the Signer prestige class), a cutter must make predictions, register them at Hall of Speakers, and have them come true.  Their egos are huge, but when the planes could bend to your beck and call, wouldn't you be?

Class Features:
        All the following of the Signer prestige class:

       Weapon and Armor Proficiency:  Characters who take a level of Signer gain no special proficiency with weapons, armor, or shields.
        Reality Perception:  Because of a Signer's close relationship with the Truth, all Signers gain a +2 competance bonus to will saves against illusions.  Also, when a Signer first interacts with an illusion, she gets an automatic will save to detect its true existance.  (Ex)
        Imagining:  This unique power harnesses the Signer's innate control of the multiverse.  A signer may use this power to imitate any spell from any spell list the Signer has access to of the Signer's class level minus one (ie. First level Signers can imagine 0-level effects, while 6th level Signers can imagine 0 level to 5th level effects).  This spell-like ability takes effect as if cast by a caster equal to the Signer's character level.  To use the power, a Signer must make a full round action and pass a Concentration check with a DC equal to 16 + spell effect level .  The DC raises for each successful previous use of Imagining in the day by 5.  Thus imitating mage hand (level 0) at the beginning of the day require a DC=16, then imagining a prestidigitation (level 0) requires a DC=21, etc. A failure indicates that nothing happens.  Imagining is not without its risks however.  A critical failure (natural 1 rolled) indicates doubting one's own existance.  If the spell being imagined is level 4 or less, the Signer becomes a shadow conjuration (as the spell) of themselves, going to 20% of their proper hit points, among other effects.  They may try once per day, starting with the next day, to Imagine themselves back to existance (DC=16).  If the critical failure occures when imitating a spell 5th level or higher, the Signer is so effective in her imagination that she imagines herself out of existance completely.  The only way to return to existance if this happens is with a wish or miracle spell, or being imagined back into existance by another Signer of equal or higher class level.
        Augury:  Signers of at least 3rd level can, as a full round action, activate this spell-like ability as if she had cast augury from the Player's Handbook.  The effect is as if cast by a cleric of the Signer's class level.  This augury doesn't go to a diety specifically, but taps the inner reality of the Signer.
        Divination:  A 5th level or greater Signer can, as a full round action, activate this spell-like ability as if she had cast divination from the Player's Handbook.  The effect is as if cast by a cleric of the Signer's class level.  This divination doesn't go to a diety specifically, but taps the inner reality of the Signer.
        Speaker's Key Award:  At 7th level, the next time the Signer returns to the Hall of Speakers, she is awards a speaker's key by the faction.
            Speaker's Key:  This magic item is an ornate choker of silver and pearls.  It gives the wearer a +4 initive in verbal situations, and all creatures can clearly hear and understand (as the tongues spell) the speaker up to 1,000 feet away.  Also, all listeners must make a Will save (DC=13) or find their thoughts agreeing with the speaker, as if charmed by a charm person spell.
        Scrying:  At 9th level, a Signer gains the ability, as a full round action, to activate this spell-like power as if she had cast scrying from the Player's Handbook.  The effect is as if cast by a cleric of the Signer's character level.
