The courier is a mundane ranger, focusing on using skills and training to get to places quickly and safely rather than alliances with spirits and the spells they grant. Some rangers with this training work as scouts or do infiltration missions in supposedly impossible locations.
Animal Bond (Ex)
At 1st level, the courier gains an animal companion, like that of a druid of his level. This is often a mount, or a bird trained to deliver messages. This replaces the Hunter's Bond ability.
Fast Movement (Ex)
At 4th level, a courier’s land speed is faster than the norm for her race by +10 feet. This benefit applies only when he is wearing no armor, light armor, or medium armor, and not carrying a heavy load. Apply this bonus before modifying the courier’s speed because of any load carried or armor worn. This bonus stacks with any other bonuses to the courier's land speed except the barbarian's fast movement ability.
Climb Speed
At 10th level, the courier gains a climb speed of 20 ft. He also gains a +8 bonus on Climb checks and can take 10 on Climb rolls even in combat or under stressful conditions.
Swim Speed
At 13th level, the courier gains a swim speed of 20 ft. He also gains a +8 bonus on Swim checks and can take 10 on Swim rolls even in combat or under stressful conditions.
No Spells
These abilities replace the ranger’s spells class feature. Couriers do not gain any spells or spellcasting ability, do not have a caster level, and cannot use spell trigger and spell completion magic items.
