Your powers derive from your understanding of locks, traps, and other mechanisms. You might come from a long line of successful theives or you stole your powers in an especially daring and unusual robbery. Whatever the reason, your magic has a special affinity for locks, traps, and machinery.

Class Information

This is a sorcerer archetype

Hit Die: d6.

Class Skills

Appraise (Int), Bluff (Cha), Craft (Int), Disable Device (Int), Escape Artist (Dex), Fly (Dex), Intimidate (Cha), Knowledge (arcana) (Int), Knowledge (engineering) (Int), Linguistics (Int), Profession (Wis), Stealth (Dex), Spellcraft (Int), Use Magic Device (Cha).

Class Features

The burglar mage has all the sorcerer's class features, except as noted.

Trapfinding (Su)

A burglar mage adds ½ her level to Perception skill checks made to locate traps and to Disable Device skill checks (minimum +1). A burglar mage can use Disable Device to disarm magic traps. This replaces the bloodline power gained at level 1.

Bonus Spells

A burglar mage learns the following spells at the indicated levels, adding them to his known spells and spell list, as applicable. This replaces bloodline bonus spells.

Vanish (2rd), darkvision (4th), discern value (6th), stone shape (8th), treasure stitching (10th), mislead (12th), forcecage (13th), discern location (16th), etherealness (18th).

Telekinetic Tinkering (Sp)

At 3rd level, a burglar mage can use the Disable Device skill at close range (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels), substituting tools with telekinesis. This ability can also be used with an immediate action to set off any known trap within range. Against a trap that the burglar mage has set herself or disabled using Disable Device, this is automatic. Against a trap which is known, it requires a Disable Device check against the disarm difficulty of the trap. This replaces the bloodline power gained at level 3.

Trap Sense (Su)

At 9th level, a burglar mage gains an magical sense that alerts her to danger from traps, giving her a +1 bonus on Reflex saves made to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks made by traps. These bonuses rise to +2 when the burglar mage reaches 12th level, to +3 when she reaches 15th level, and to +4 at 18th level. Trap sense bonuses gained from multiple classes stack. This replaces the bloodline power gained at level 9.

Trap Mastery (Su)

At 15th level the burglar mage always succeeds at saving throws against the effects of traps. Traps that do not allow saving throws but cause hit point or attribute damage only inflict half damage to the burglar mage. This replaces the bloodline power gained at level 15.

Immune to Traps (Su)

At 20th level, a burglar mage never triggers traps—it is as if she did not exist as far as the trap is concerned. When she normally would, she can instead make a Perception check to notice the trap. She can still deliberately trigger a trap. She gains an SR of 11 + sorcerer level against the effects of magical traps triggered deliberately or by others. Symbols, wards and other trap-like magics count as traps for this ability, but magical walls do not. This replaces the bloodline power gained at level 20.
