=='''Substances you can prepare with Herbalism:'''==
You can prepare as much as 40gp x your total modifier on Profession(herbalist) worth of substances per period of downtime.

If you are in the field, you can locate a given herb, plant or fungus with a successful Profession(herbalist) check DC = 15 + (10 per every 10gp in the item's price). This takes generally 1h in a wooded area, but may take longer depending on the natural environment.

See [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/goods-and-services Pathfinder's equipment list] for details on each item’s price.

=='''Feats'''==
Each feat's skill point cost is listed between parenthesis.

'''Poisonmaking''' (4)
''Prerequisite: Int 13, Dex 13, Profession(herbalist) 6 ranks''.
You are trained in extracting venom from animals and plants, and concoct usable poisons.

To obtain your fresh extract, you must succeed on a Profession(herbalist) check. The DC of the check to safely extract the venom gland of a creature or to find a poisonous plant or fungous is equal to 5 + the DC of the poison in question. If you fail, you ruin the raw material. If you fail by 5 or more, you poison yourself.

You can prepare a total of 40gp x your total modifier on Profession(herbalist) worth of poison. Check prices and information [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/afflictions#TOC-Poison here ] (scroll down for the descriptions which have more poisons).

Also, your carefulness when handling poisons allows you to manipulate them without incurring the 5% risk of poisoning yourself.

'''Brew Magic Potions & Oils''' (4)
''Prerequisite: Int 13, Craft(alchemy) 2 ranks, Profession(herbalist) 2 ranks, Knowledge(arcana) 4 ranks, Spellcraft 1 rank''.
You can brew magical liquids that can bestow their effects either when drunk (potion) or applied over an object/creature (oil). Essentially they are spells in liquid form. Only personal spells and spells that have definite targets can be made into potions/oils, and no spell that requires a ranged touch attack or Ref save can be made into a potion. The effects of beneficial potions and oils can be obtained by drinking or smeaing them onto a surface, respectively. Offensive spells turned into potions can essentially be turned into a kind of poison (the target is affected if he drinks it), of if made into oils can be used as splash weapons (although the target is only affected upon a direct hit).

You can brew any potion of a level equivalent to half your ranks in Spellcraft (min 1) as long as you possess the respective spell formula.

For the purposes of crafting potions and oils (with either alchemy or herbalism), the price in gp is equivalent to 25 x level of the spell x caster level of the potion. (ex. In this case, a 1st level potion at caster level 1 costs 25gp, a 2nd level potion at caster level 3 costs 300gp).

=='''Spellcasting'''==
For those trained both in Knowledge(arcana) and Spellcraft.

Any single spell can be transcribed into a character’s spellbook during downtime. Depending on the level of the spell, you may be able to transcribe more or less.

Not every spell is made immediately available to you: many offensive spells are withheld by the Company until they know they can trust you with such magic. Also, some spells are only know to specific individuals within the Company, and need to be asked for directly.

You must have a minimum number of ranks in a Perform skill that produces music.

Unless noted, spellsongs require both verbal (singing) as well as somatic components, which involves playing an instrument, requiring the use of one or two hands.

Song magic follows the same rules as sorcerer casting, in that the more you use it in a short period of time, the more difficult it becomes to perform.

'''Spellsongs'''

The aelfen of the Company have brought with them the traditions of spellsong, and teach them to initiates in the mystic arts.
To those proven to be thrustworthy, they can eventually teach the deep secrets of the sublime art, and the earthshaking music used by the aelfen spellsingers.

[http://www.orcedinburgh.co.uk/wiki/Magic_in_Post-Myth#Song_Magic Click here for details.]

Each spellsong costs 4 skill points to learn, and you must possess a minimum number of ranks (not the total modifier!) in a Perform skill that produces music. You need to know 2 spellsongs of the previous level to learn a new one.

To activate and maintain spellsongs you must succeed on a Perform check which has to succeed over the indicated DC. The caster level of a spellsong is equal to your number of ranks in Perform.

'''Animate Rope'''
Up to 50ft of rope animates for as long as you perform, at medium range, and can coil, loop and tie itself; if near or thrown at an opponent, it can trap him; each command takes a move action. ''Standard action to activate, swift action to maintain.''

=='''Dream Magic'''==

Among the ealfen in the Company, Dreamtelling is common, but a few know how to traverse the corridors of dream and travel into other dreamer's dreamscapes. They can see many things, mend broken minds, dispel geasas and even confront possessing entities.

To begin to learn how to perform dream magic, you must first learn Lucid Dreaming (a skill available in this traning school, see at the top).

''Skill:''
'''Lucid Dreaming''' (Wis or Cha)

Use this skill to realize you’re dreaming, consciously direct elements within a dreamscape, and move into other dreamscapes. Each use is a standard action.

{| border=1
!'''Task'''!!'''DC'''
|-
||Realize you’re dreaming||5
|-
||Change one aspect of your dreamscape||15
|-
||Change one aspect of another’s dreamscape||20
|-
||*Another additional aspect.''An aspect includes background features such as lighting, terrain, architecture of a given building, vegetation or other innocuous characteristics.'' ||+5
|-
||Directly affect objects relating to yourself or other dreamers. ''You can create mundane items, including weapons or armor, or make them disappear. You can also affect the terrain in ways potentially hazardous to other dreamers, such as opening a pit under their feet. If you want to affect another dreamer which is versed in Lucid dreaming, you must succeed on an Opposed Lucid Dreaming check against his.''||25
|-
||Change your personal appearance. ''You can change into the likeness of any creature within 2 size categories of your size. Only your appearance changes, your abilities stay the same.''||20
|-
||Metamorphose into another creature. ''You can change into another creature you have met, and use any ability you witnessed the creature use.''||25

''You can manifest any sort of spell-like effect which you have witnessed previously, which creates a physical effect, with a caster level equal to your Lucid Dreaming result minus 10. Illusions, Divinations and Enchantments cannot be created in this way.''||12 + (level of spell x 2)
|-
||Depart one dreamscape for another. ''You can travel into any other dreamscape owned by another creature, but you must have something that connects you with it.

|}

Time flows faster within dreams. For every 10min spent in a dream, only 1 min passes in the waking world. Experiences within dreams become but memories upon waking, so any injuries taken, or items/ability uses spent are only in a character’s mind. But those versed in dream magic can bend these rules to an extent.

A dreamer within his own dreamscape does not normally suffer any damage upon waking up if he was injured within a dream (or even if he died). But when travelling outside their personal dreamscape, a dreamwalker takes a risk: any damage suffered translates into nonlethal damage upon waking up. Furthermore, if you had reached Staggered HP within the dream, you wake up fatigued; if you were reduced to negative HP, you wake up exhausted. If your dreamself is killed while outside your dreamscape, you wake up immediatelly, screaming, and take 1d6 Wis drain.

Skilled dreamwalkers can invade other dreamers’ dreamscapes and physically injure them or even manipulate their minds. The darkest dream magics allow one to kill a dreamer from within a dream, or even to possess them.

'''Dreamtelling''' (2)
''Prerequisites: Wis or Cha 11, Knowledge(arcana) 2 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 4 ranks''
You learn how to glean prophetic insight from dreams, by making a knowledge(arcana) check. You can gain ranks in Dreamtelling as a specialization of Knowledge(arcana).

'''Oneiromancy''' (4)
''Prerequisites: Wis or Cha 11, Knowledge(arcana) 2 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 5 ranks''
You learn to consciously direct your dreams towards gaining insight on a particular subject. Whether through half-remembered memories or inspiration from beyond mortal dreams, sometimes you get a glimpse of something related to your question. You have a probability of 60% + your Lucid Dreaming check result of finding something related to what you seek. What you find is often cryptic and not obvious in relation to your question, and you need to use Knowledge(arcana) (or Dreamtelling) to try to decipher it.
You can try this only once per 8h period of sleep.

'''Field Psychoanalyst''' (3)
''Prerequisites: Sense Motive 5 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 5 ranks''
When inside a dreamer’s dreamscape, you can probe the dream to find more about the subject, granting you a +4 bonus on all future social skill checks against him. You can also try to mend psychological damage he has suffered. You must succeed on a Sense Motive DC 18 to understand the nature of the damage. A successful check heals 1d6 points of ability damage or drain, distributed among Int, Wis or Cha. You can try one of these checks for each 8h-period spent sleeping.

'''Sense Charm''' (3)
''Prerequisites: Field Psychoanalyst, Sense Motive 6 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 6 ranks''
When meeting a dreamer’s dreamself, you can try to discern if he is under the effect of a supernatural compulsion, an enchantment spell, or possession by another entity. You must make an opposed Lucid Dreaming check against the caster level of the effect. If you fail, you notice nothing and cannot attempt again during this particular dream. If you succeed, you determine what kind of effect it has on the dreamer and for how long it lasts.
The spell serves as a connection to the caster, so it can be used to try to enter the caster’s dreams.

'''Break Mind Control''' (4)
''Prerequisites: Field Psychoanalyst, Sense Charm, Sense Motive 8 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 8 ranks''
If you manage to detect a dreamer under the influence of a supernatural compulsion or enchantment spell, you can try to dispel it by succeeding on a Lucid Dreaming check against the effect’s caster level. If you succeed the effect is broken, but if you fail by 5 or more, the effect instead latches on to you, leaving the original target. The DM rolls this in secret, so you might not know you have been affected.
You can also try to challenge a possessing entity, by performing the same Lucid Dreaming check against the entity’s level check (1d20 + HD + Cha mod). Success means you force the entity to manifest in the dream, allowing you to confront it. Failure by more than 5 allows the entity access to you, and it can possess you freely if it so wishes.

'''Eidetic Lock''' (2)
''Prerequisite: Int 11, Lucid Dreaming 4 ranks''
You plant a memory inside a dreamer’s mind, such as an image, an idea or a passage of text (up to 500 words). The target is aware of the memory, and can recall it perfectly, and transmit it to others. You must succeed on a Lucid Dreaming check DC18. Failure by 5 or more wakes the dreamer and ejects you from the dreamscape, and you wake up fatigued.

'''Plant Suggestion''' (4)
''Prerequisite: Int 11, Field Psychoanalyst, Bluff 6 ranks, Lucid Dreaming 7 ranks''
Through subtle manipulation of the target’s dreamscape, you can implant a triggered suggestion, attraction or aversion. The implant only lasts until the target’s next night of sleep, so it must be triggered the next day. Once it is triggered, it stays in effect for 1h per number of ranks you have in Lucid Dreaming. You can implant a mental suggestion, an aversion to someone or something, or an attraction of the same. When it triggers, the target is allowed a Will save DC 10 + ½ your ranks in Lucid Dreaming + Cha or Wis mod. It might be allowed a bonus or a penalty on his save depending on how plausible it is. Actions that clearly endanger the target allow it another Will save to break the suggestion.
