A bibliokinesist works with paper (and similar writing surfaces such as vellum and papyrus) and the written word in the form of books, tomes, and scrolls. The bibliokineticist creates works containing pure gibberish — random letters and words without meaning or value. Some powerful bibliokinesists can conjure books of lore from the Akashic Record.

Bibliokineticists usually create works that do not contain any new information; they instead incorporate words the kineticist has memorized, made up, or pure gibberish. Powerful bibliokinesists can use symbols that imbue elemental blasts with power or even conjure books of lore from the Akashic Record.

You elongate a limb to attack. This is a ranged attack, and your limb contracts back to normal immediately after the attack. This attack can do bludgeoning or non-lethal damage damage. You can use this attack with a melee weapon from the close weapon group (see the fighter class for definition of weapon groups) or a natural attack; if you do, body blast deals the same type of physical damage the close melee weapon or natural attack does.

You infuse a simple blast by adding symbols representing that element, causing it to deal 1 additional point of damage of the same type for each of its damage dice; it otherwise acts as the simple blast.

Your kinetic blast counters your foe’s magical effects. Whenever your infused blast hits a foe (and penetrates its spell resistance, if applicable), you can attempt a caster level check as if using a targeted ''[http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/dispel-magic dispel magic]'' before determining whether the foe takes damage from the blast. You can choose to reduce the blast’s damage by half to increase your bonus on the caster level check by 2. You can ready this blast to use as a counterspell, if you do universal unravel works just like ''[http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/dispel-magic dispel magic]'' used to counterspell; it ignores spell resistance and needs no attack roll, but only targets the spell used.

As a full-round action can alter your size from Small to Large. You do not change your attributes, Armor Class or attack bonus. For each increase in size, you gain a +2 bonus on CMB and CMD but suffer a -2 penalty to Fly checks and a -4 penalty on Stealth checks. reducing size gets the opposite result. This replaces the normal modifiers because of size changes.

Optional Rules

At second level, a kineticist can choose to replace the elemental defense ability and instead gain Weapon Finesse as a bonus feat. She can still learn the elemental defense of her primary element by choosing the expanded defense utility wild talent.

Kineticist Power Tables

This is an attempt to organize the kinetic blasts, infusions, and wild talents in a more readable format than the rulebooks.

Kinetic Blasts

All but simple blasts cost burn 2. The word "blast" has been ignored in names.

A kineticist can use all combination blasts he qualifies for. Note there are specific prerequisites that must be fulfilled, not all blasts listed for an element are available.

Expanded Elements

Not elements in the classic sense, these power sets work just as the other elements of the kineticist.

Bibliokinesis

A bibliokinesist works with paper (and similar writing surfaces such as vellum and papyrus) and the written word in the form of books, tomes, and scrolls. Variant bibliokinesists work with cards or with solid sculpted text, runes, or glyphs with only superficial differences. Bibliokineticists usually create works that do not contain any new information; they instead incorporate words the kineticist has memorized, made up, or pure gibberish. Powerful bibliokinesists can use symbols that imbue elemental blasts with power or even conjure books of lore from the Akashic Record.

New wild talents from this site are marked *.

Class Skills A bibliokinesist adds Linguistics and Spellcraft to her list of class skills.

Basic Manipulation: A bibliokineticist gains basic bibliokinesis*.

Simple Blast: A bibliokineticist can select either paper blast* or word blast* as her simple blast. She gains one of them when she first selects bibliokinesis, and must select bibliokinesis again with expanded element to gain the other. Which of her blasts work with which infusions is noted under infusion wild talents, below.

Defense: A bibliokineticist’s defense wild talent is shroud of words*.

Infusion Wild Talents The listed infusion wild talents are available to bibliokineticists at the indicated levels. Each infusion talent has the new blasts they work with given in parenthesis after the name. 1st — pushing (paper, physical word). 2nd — entangling (paper, physical word), ethical (energized word, paper, physical word, word)*. 3rd — elemental letters (energized word, word)*, impale (paper, physical word). 4th — cyclone (energized word, paper, physical word, word), spray (energized word, paper, word). 5th — unravel (energized word, paper, physical word, word)*. 6th — 7th — fragmentation (energized word, paper, physical word, word). 8th — many throw (energized word, paper, physical word, word). 9th —

Utility Wild Talents The listed utility wild talents are available to bibliokineticists at the indicated levels. 1st — basic bibliokinesis*, decipher script*, kinetic cover. 2nd — paper path*. 3rd — akashic primer*, paper cuts*, smoke storm. 4th — telekinetic maneuvers, wings*. 5th — 6th — 7th — 8th — akashic tome*. 9th —

Mysokinesis

A mysokinesist kinetically manipulates ther own body, changing shape and size, but not substance. Mysokinetic attacks are unarmed attacks based on stretching and enlarging the whole or parts of the body.

New wild talents from this site are marked *.

Class Skills A mysokinesist adds Climb and Swim to her list of class skills.

Basic Manipulation: A mysokineticist gains basic mysokinesis*.

Simple Blast: A mysokineticist gains body blast* as her simple blast.

Defense: A mysokineticist’s defense wild talent is kinetic body*.

Infusion Wild Talents The listed infusion wild talents are available to mysokineticists at the indicated levels. Each infusion talent has the new blasts they work with given in parenthesis after the name. 1st — bowling, pulling, pushing, swing*, thundering 2nd — feinting* 3rd — ethical*, foe throw, force hook, impale, maneuver* 4th — armor disrupting*, spray 5th — 6th — 7th — riposting 8th — 9th —

New Simple Blasts

Body Blast

Element(s) body; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Blast Type: physical; Damage bludgeoning or non-lethal (see text)

You elongate a limb to attack. This is a ranged attack, and your limb contracts back to normal immediately after the attack. This attack can do bludgeoning or non-lethal damage damage. You can use this attack with a melee weapon from the close weapon group (see the fighter class for definition of weapon groups) or a natural attack; if you do, body blast deals the same type of physical damage the close melee weapon or natural attack does. It does not gain any other advantages from a weapon used this way, such as special materials or magical abilities.

A body blast and blasts that use body blast as a prerequisite cannot use the following universal infusions: draining, extreme range, grappling, mobile blast, and wall.

Hammer Blast

Element(s) weapons; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Blast Type: physical; Damage bludgeoning

Paper Blast

Element(s) paper; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Blast Type: physical; Damage slashing or piercing

You attack a single foe with cutting edges or piercing rolls of paper.

Spear Blast

Element(s) weapons; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Sword Type: physical; Damage piercing.

Sword Blast

Element(s) weapons; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Word Blast

Element(s) paper; Type simple blast (sp); Level —; Burn 0

Blast Type: physical; Damage non-lethal bludgeoning

You batter a single foe by throwing a book or piece of solidified script at them.

New Compound Blasts

Rather than create new compound blasts for every combination of elements, the new compound blasts listed here mainly go by category: energy and physical.

Energized Word Blast

Element paper and one more elements; Type energy (boost) (sp); Level —; Burn 2

Prerequisite(s) paper blast or word blast, any energy blast.

Blast Type energy; Damage special (see text).

You infuse a simple blast by adding symbols representing that element, causing it to deal 1 additional point of damage of the same type for each of its damage dice; it otherwise acts as the simple blast. At 15th level, you can also infuse a composite blast with aether. To infuse a composite blast in this way, you must accept 1 additional point of burn.

Hyper Blast

Element any; Type see text (sp); Level —; Burn 2

Prerequisite(s) primary and expanded element of the same type, any simple blast taken twice.

Blast Type see text; Damage double damage of the simple blast (see text).

To use hyper blast, you have to select the same simple blast twice and the same element as both a primary and secondary element.

This allows you to double down on the blast, creating a composite blast doing twice the damage of the simple blast, all of one type, the same type as the simple blast it is used with. A hyper blast is visibly different from a simple blast, variations in color and intensity make the fact that this is a compound blast obvious. A hyper blast can be used with any infusions that work with the simple blast it is built on.

Blue flame blast is an example of a hyper blast.

Physical Word Blast

Element paper and one more element; Type physical (sp); Level —; Burn 2

Prerequisite(s) paper blast or word blast, any physical blast (this includes a combination of paper and word blasts)

New Defense Wild Talents

Kinetic Body

Element(s) body; Type defense (su); Level —; Burn 0

You charge your body with kinetic energy to gain a number of temporary hit points equal to your kineticist level. These temporary hit points recover by five points per minute.

By accepting 1 point of burn as a standard action, you can increase the maximum number of temporary hit points provided by kinetic body by your kineticist level until the next time your burn is removed and the rate of recovery increases by five points per minute. If you use this ability multiple times, the increases stack.

Whenever you accept burn while using a body wild talent, you siphon some of the energy from the kinetic energy flowing through you into your body. Your kinetic body recovers a number of temporary hit points equal to your Hit Dice, up to its current maximum.

Unlike force ward, this power does not actually repel attacks, rather it makes your body better able to resist damage taken.

Soul of Steel

Element(s) weapon; Type defense (su); Level —; Burn 0

You can transform any armor you wear as a swift action, turning it into an armored kilt, chain shirt, or half plate. The armor retains any enchantment it has and gives you no armor check penalty or speed penalty. You count as being proficient with any armor you create this way. The armor instantly reverts to its normal shape after you take it off.

Shroud of Words

Element(s) paper; Type defense (su); Level —; Burn 0

You constantly surround yourself with a whirling torrent of written words or paper to protect yourself from supernatural ranged attacks. All ranged touch attacks suffer a 20% miss chance against you. This ability has no effect on ranged attacks that are not touch attacks. The miss chance increases by 5% for every 5 kineticist levels you possess beyond 2nd. By accepting 1 point of burn, you can increase the miss chance by 5% until the next time your burn is removed. You can continue to accept points of burn to increase the miss chance further, up to a maximum of 75%. Whenever you accept burn while using a paper wild talent, the energy surging through you causes your paper shroud to also affect physical ranged attacks and other ranged attacks that are not ranged touch attacks for 1 round.

You can dismiss or restore this effect as an immediate action.
