Class Features

This cursed witch has all normal witch class features, except as noted.

Witch's Curse

A cursed witch suffers under an oracle's curse. See also apath oracle's curses. All references to the oracle class, spell list, or levels instead apply to the cursed witch equivalent. All abilities of these curses based on Charisma are based on Intelligence for the cursed witch.

Any oracle curse that counts as martial arts carry an additional penalty for the cursed witch. If she has any armor bonus, including from force armor like mage armor the curse adds 10% to the chance of arcane spell failure.

Hex

A cursed witch gains more hexes at low level, but fewer hexes overall. She gains a hex at level 1, 2, 3, and every third level after level 3.
