The antipaladin serves as the enforcer of all lawful evil gods.

Much like the paladin the antipaladin has a code of conduct. They must follow all orders of higher ranking members of their order. They must always strive to gain more power and control and they must make every attempt to collect souls for their dark masters through contracts or other means.

Class Features

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Antipaladins are proficient with all simple and martial weapons, with all types of armor (Heavy, Medium, and Light), and with shields (except Tower shields).

Spells: Beginning at 4th level, an antipaladin gains the ability to cast a small number of divine spells which are drawn from the antipaladin spell list presented below. A antipaladin must choose and prepare her spells in advance.

To prepare or cast a spell, a antipaladin must have a Charisma score equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against a antipaladin's spell is 10 + the spell level + the antipaladin's Charisma modifier.

Like other spellcasters, a antipaladin can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. His base daily spell allotment is given below. In addition, he receives bonus spells per day if he has a high Charisma score. When the table below indicates that the antipaladin gets 0 spells per day of a given spell level, he gains only the bonus spells she would be entitled to based on her Charisma score for that spell level.

A antipaladin must spend 1 hour each day in quiet prayer and meditation to regain her daily allotment of spells. A antipaladin may prepare and cast any spell on the antipaladin spell list, provided that he can cast spells of that level, but he must choose which spells to prepare during his daily meditation.

Through 3rd level, a antipaladin has no caster level. At 4th level and higher, his caster level is equal to her paladin level – 3.

Aura of Evil (Ex): The antipaladins aura of evil is equal to their level. See Detect Evil.

Detect Good (Sp): At will, an antipaladin can use Detect Good as the spell.

Smite Good (Su): This ability functions the same as the paladin's smite evil abiltiy except it functions on good targets instead. In addition only Celestial take double the bonus damage from smite attacks.

Divine Protection (Su): Add your Charisma bonus to all saving throws.

Hell Fire (Su): An antipaladin can use Hell Fire a number of times equal to 1/2 their antipaladin level plus their Charisma modifier. Using Hell Fire is a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. Choose a single target within 30 feet. That target takes 1d6 damage / 2 antipaladin levels and must make a Fortitude save (DC = 10 + 1/2 your antipaladin level + your Charisma modifier) or become sickened for 1 round. At the begining of your next turn, if your target failed their save, you can use a standard action to maintain the Hell Fire doing 1d6 damage / 2 antipaladin levels and requiring another Fortitude save or become sickened for another round. Maintaining Hell Fire does not use up any uses of Hell Fire. You can maintain Hell Fire up to a number of rounds equal to your Charisma modifier or and the target contues to fail it's save. At 6th level if Hell Fire is maintained and the second and latter saves are failed the target is sickened and staggered for 1 round each time. At 9th level if Hell Fire is maintained and the target fails the save for a third time the target is sickened, staggered, and nauseated for 1 round. In addition you can affect a target up to 60 feet away. At 12th level if Hell Fire is maintained and the target fails the save for a fourth time the target is paralyzed. At 15th level if the inital save against Hell Fire is failed the target is sickened and staggered. A second save failed results in the target becoming sickened, staggered, nauseated, and paralyzed. At 18th level if the save is failed the target becomes sickened, staggered, nauseated, and paralyzed. At 20th level Hell Fire deals maximum damage.

Aura of Courage (Su): Functions the same as the paladin's ability of the same name.

Divine Health (Ex): You gain Immunity to all Diseases and Poison including all supernatural and magical versions.

Intimidating Domineer (Ex): You gain a bonus equal to 1/2 your antipaladin level on all intimidate skill checks made to force a target to act friendly toward you.

Divine Bond (Su): The Antipaladin can form a divine bond similar to that of a paladin with the following exceptions. Weapon Bond- An antipaladin calls upon a fiendish spirit to enhance their weapon. In addition the enhancements that can be given are Axiomatic, Flaming, Flaming Burst, Unholy, Keen, Speed, Mighting Cleaving, Vicious, Wounding, or Vorpal. Mount- At 11th level the mount gains the fiendish template.

Aura of Resolve (Su): This functions the same as the paladin's ability of the same name.

Opressive Will (Sp): As a standard action, that doesn't provokes an attack of opportunity you can force your will upon another. This ability functions the same as the spell Dominate Person except you can also effect lawful evil Outsiders and the duration is 1 minute per level. The target is allowed a Will save (DC = 10 + 1/2 your antipaladin level + your cha modifier). If a target makes its save it is immune to your Opressive Will ability for 24 hours. At 15th level your influence over Lawful Evil Outsiders increases. Lawful evil Outsiders suffer a -4 penalty to Will saves against your Opressive Will ability. In addition they do not gain immunity to Opressive Will if they make their save. At 19th level you gain total contor over lesser lawful evil outsiders. Any lawful evil outsider with fewer hit dice than you have antipaladin levels recieves no save against your Opressive Will ability.

Aura of Faith (Su): An antipaladin's weapon attacks are treated as evil alligned for the purposes of overcomeing damage reduction. In addition all attacks against enemies within 10 feet are also treated as evil alligned. Aura of Power (Su): The antipaladin gains DR 5/good and immunity to compulsion spells and effects. All allies within 10 feet get a +4 bonus against compulsions as well. This only functions while the antipaladin is conscious.

Unholy Champion (Su): The antipaladin's DR increases to 10/good. A good outsider successfully struck while the target of smite good is subject to a banishment using their antipaladin level as the caster level. The antipaladin's weapon and holy symbol are treated as items the subject hates. After the banishment is resolved that smite ends. When using Hell Fire it now does the maximum damage. You can now use Opressive Will as the spell Dominate Monster.
