| − | ''False priests have a gift for disguising their arcane magic as god-given divine magic, and in the use of divine scrolls, staves, and wands. They roam the lands as prophets of a new faith, using their power to convince the unfaithful of their misplaced loyalties in other gods and governments and to defeat those who oppose them.

| |
| − | | |
| − | == Class Features ==
| |
| − | These are all the class features of the false priest. The prestige archetype is open to many classes, with slight modifications. Because the archetype has so many abilities, it replaces all of the class features of whatever class it is taken with, except as noted under spells and build class, below.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Spells ===
| |
| − | The false priest learns and casts spells exactly like the build class, including the effect of ability scores on spellcasting and cantrips or knacks.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Build Class ===
| |
| − | The false priest inherits just a few class features from the build class, as follows.

Because she lacks a pherenic pool, certain discipline powers do not work, notably those of the Enlightenment discipline.

| |
| − | The sorcerer false priest gains [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/eschew-materials---final Eschew Materials] as a bonus feat at level 1 and adds the spells gained from false ritual to her list of known spells. Many sorcerer false priests have deluded themselves into believing in their false creed, this delusion might be responsible for awakening their power.

| |
| − | She can chose to not use illusory healing when casting spells to restore hit point damage. Spells on the witch spell list learned from the false ritual class feature are learned at their witch spell level.

| − | '''[http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/wizard Wizard].
| |
| − | The wizard keeps the [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/wizard#TOC-Arcane-Bond-Ex-or-Sp- arcane bond] class feature, and can choose a holy symbol as her arcane focus item if she picks that option.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Domain ===
| |
| − | A false priest may select one cleric domain. She may not select an alignment domain. A false priest gains the granted powers of that domain, using her arcane spellcaster level as her cleric level and her Charisma modifier in place of her Wisdom modifier. She adds any domain spells to her spell list, but these spells must still be learned normally.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Illusory Healing (Ex) ===
| |
| − | Whenever a false priest spell would heal hit point damage, that spell is modified.
| |
| − | The spell becomes an illusion (shadow) spell with a duration of 10 minutes/level.
| |
| − | Any hit points healed are illusory healing, temporary hit points that stack with other illusory healing but cannot exceed the damage the creature has currently taken. Illusory healing does not stack with normal temporary hit points.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Casting ===
| |
| − | When a false priest uses a magic item or a spell-like ability to create a magical effect, she may add additional magic-seeming words and hand gestures to trick onlookers into believing she cast the spell herself. If using an item that is recognizable as a magical implement (such as a wand or ring), she can trick viewers into thinking she is just using the item as a focus component.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Onlookers who have no ranks in Spellcraft have no knowledge of what is genuine spellcasting, and automatically believe the false priest is casting a spell. If an onlooker attempts a Spellcraft check to identify the “casting,” her check is opposed by the false priest's Bluff check. If she succeeds, she realizes the deception. If she fails, she believes the false priest cast the spell. Regardless of the result of that opposed check, she uses the result of that Spellcraft check to identify the “spell” cast, except the DC is 20 + the spell’s level instead of 15 + the spell’s level.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When using false casting to cast a spell on the cleric spell list with a spell level she can cast, she receives a +10 circumstance bonus on the Bluff check made when casting the spell.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Ritual (Su) ===
| |
| − | A false priest adds a number of spells what are normally divine spell list to her spell list and to her spell book, familiar, or list of known spells, as appropriate. She gains each spell as soon as she can cast spells of that level.

| − | === Master of Lies (Ex) ===
| |
| − | At 2nd level a false priest adds half her class level to any Bluff check made as part of a lie or deception. In addition, whenever she is subject to a spell or special ability that can discern whether or not she is telling the truth, she is automatically aware of such magic. She is not immune to such spells or abilities, but she can choose to remain silent or avoid answering questions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Channel (Su) ===
| |
| − | Starting at 3rd level, a false priest can channel illusory energy to give illusory healing (see above) to all living creatures within 30 ft., healing 1d6 points of damage. The amount healed increased to 2d6 at level 7 and by another d6 for every four levels after level seven.
| |
| − | This looks and feels just like a cleric channeling positive energy to heal, excspt that the effect ends after 10 minutes/level.
| |
| − | She can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + her Charisma modifier.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Piety (Ex) ===
| |
| − | At 4th level a false priest adds half her class level to Use Magic Device checks.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Focus (Ex) ===
| |
| − | At 5th level, using a divine focus as part of casting, the false priest can cast any spell with a material component costing the value of that divine focus (maximum 100 gp) or less without needing that component. For example, if she uses a silver holy symbol worth 25 gp, she does not have to provide material components for an arcane spell if its components are worth 25 gp or less. If the spell requires a material component that costs more than the value of the divine focus, the false priest must have the material component on hand to cast the spell, as normal.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Replacement Channel (Su) ===
| |
| − | At 9th level, the false priest can use her own magic to power spell completion and spell trigger items that uses divine spells. She expends a spell slot or prepared spell that is at least 1 level higher than the level of the spell she’s trying to activate, then makes a Use Magic Device check. If she succeeds, the item’s spell occurs and the item or charge is not expended. If she fails, the item fails to activate but the spell or spell slot is still spent.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Conversion (Su) ===
| |
| − | At 13th level, whenever a false priest heals herself using false channel, the effect heals damage instead of granting temporary hit points. False channel still gives illusory healing to others in the area of effect.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === False Spell List (Su) ===
| |
| − | At 17th level, when determining what spell trigger and spell completion magic items she can use, the false priest acts as though all cleric spells were on her spell list. This makes it so that she does not need to make a Use Magic Device skill check when using such items, but she must still make Bluff skill checks when using False Casting with such spells.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === True Pretender (Su) ===
| |
| − | At 20th level, a false priest attains true power. Whenever she uses false channel, she can spend two uses of that ability to heal damage to all living creatures in the area, instead of granting temporary hit points.
