Requirements

To take a drow soulknife substitution level, a character must be a drow about to take his 1st, 3rd, or 8th level of soulknife.

Class Skills

Drow soulknife substitution levels have the class skills of the standard soulknife class, plus Diplomacy (Cha) and Sense Motive (Wis).

Skill Points at Each Level

4 + Int modifier (or four times this number as a beginning character).

Class Features

All of the following are features of the drow soulknife's racial substitution levels.

Align Mind Blade (Su)

A drow soulknife can spend 1 power point as a free action to imbue his mind blade with either chaotic, evil, good, or lawful alignment for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. This effect lasts for 1 round.

This substitution feature replaces the standard soulknife's free Wild Talent feat. Since all drow gain power points for free, the character does not need this feat to materialize his mind blade.

Zen Strike (Su)

At 3rd level, a drow soulknife may add his Wisdom bonus (if any) to damage he deals with his mind blade. If he has taken levels in the soulbow prestige class, he may also add his Strength bonus (if any) to damage he deals with his mind arrows.

This substitution feature replaces the standard soulknife's psychic strike ability. A drow soulknife instead gains that ability at 7th level, and the extra damage dealt is reduced by 1d8 from the value normally given.

Soulblade Warrior

At 8th level, a drow soulknife gains Soulblade Warrior as a bonus feat.

This substitution feature replaces the blade skill normally gained by a soulknife at 8th level.
