Elemental sacerdotes focus on the powers of one or more elements, channelling spells into elemental bursts rather than positive or negative energy.
Class Information
This is a sacerdote archetype.
Alignment: Any. Elemental sacerdotes tend to be neutral, avoiding the entanglements of espousing an alignment.
Class Skills
The elemental sacerdote's class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are Craft (Int), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (Nature) (Int), Knowledge (Religion) (Int), Knowledge (Planes) (Int), Perform (Cha), Profession (Wis), Sense Motive (Wis), and Spellcraft (Int).
Skill Points per Level: 2 + Int modifier.
Class Features
This archetype has all normal class features, except as noted.
Elemental Domain
A sacerdote must chose one or more elemental domains, and must gain access to these domains in the normal way; from a patron with the elemental domain, from a philosophy, pantheon, dualistic faith, or monotheistic deity with the elemental domain, or from a personal creed. The different choices here affects how many domains the elemental sacerdote gets. The elemental domains are air, earth, fire, water, and weather (including their subdomains if they are used in the campaign). Like a regular sacerdote, the elemental sacerdote does not gain any domain powers from his domains. This is a restriction on the domains ability.
Elemental Wrath (Su)
Elemental sacerdotes channel elemental energies through their divine focus. This is similar to the sacerdote's divine wrath ability, but deals a different type of damage depending on the elemental domain(s) the elemental sacerdote has access to; air (electricity), earth (acid), fire (fire), water (cold), and weather (sonic). If the elemental sacerdotes has access to several elemental domains, he must choose what type of damage he does each time he uses this ability.
Elemental energy does half (instead of full) damage to incorporeal foes and is subject to elemental resistance and immunity. Elemental wrath area attacks are spreads instead of bursts, allowing them to go around corners. Saving throws against elemental wrath are Reflex saves and cover modifiers can apply. If used with feats that change the effect and still allow a saving throw, that saving throw remains as described in the feat rather than what is outlined here.
This is a modification to the divine wrath ability. The elemental sacerdote cannot channel positive or negative energy.
Energy Mastery
At level 5 the elemental sacerdote gains resistance to the energy type associated with his element, see elemental wrath. Depending on how many elemental domains the elemental sacerdote has, the resistance varies; if he has 1 elemental domain his resistance is 5 points. If he has 2, his resistance is 3 points to each. If he has 3, his resistance is 2 points, and with four or more elemental domains his resistance is one point.
An elemental sacerdote also bypasses an amount of damage resistance or immunity equal to that gained by this ability when he uses elemental wrath. This damage is applied before subtracting for resistance or immunity. The damage is then reduced by any remaining energy resistance. Targets with damage resistance less than or equal to this figure are not allowed to apply their resistance at all; those with greater resistance have their effective resistance reduced by this amount. Against targets with immunity, this much damage will bypass the immunity .
At level 10, this elemental resistance and damage resistance bypass doubles. At level 15, it triples. At level 20, it quadruples.

In addition to the stated number of spells per day for 1st- through 9th-level spells, a sacerdote gets an equal number of domain spells for each spell level, starting at 1st. The "x+x" in the entries on this table represents these extra spells. Bonus spells the sacerdote may receive for having a high Wisdom score apply to both regular spells and domain spells separately and is thus applied twice.
