Certain druid faiths in advanced societies can have theurges.

Class Abilities

This archetype has all normal class abilities, except as noted.

Class Skills

The class skills of a druid theurge are: Craft (Int), Fly (Dex), Handle Animal (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (geography) (Int), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Knowledge (religion) (Int), Profession (Wis), Ride (Dex), Spellcraft (Int), Survival (Wis), and Swim (Str).

Armor Proficiency

Druid theurges are proficient with light armor but not with shields. Druid theurges are prohibited from wearing metal armor or shields in the same manner as druids; thus, they may wear only padded, leather, or hide armor. A druid theurge may also wear wooden armor that has been altered by the ironwood spell so that it functions as though it were steel (See the ironwood spell description.) and other armor specifically noted to be usable by druids.

A druid theurge who wears prohibited armor or uses a prohibited shield is unable to use domain powers or cast druid spells while doing so and for 24 hours thereafter.

This replaces advanced somatics and aura.

Bonus Languages

An ecclesiastic druid's bonus language options include Sylvan, the language of woodland creatures as well as Celestial, Abyssal, and Infernal (the languages of good, chaotic evil, and lawful evil outsiders, respectively). This choice is in addition to the bonus languages available to the character because of her race.

An ecclesiastic druid also knows druidic, a secret language known only to druids, which she learns upon becoming a 1st-level ecclesiastic druid. druidic is a free language for an ecclesiastic druid; that is, she knows it in addition to her regular allotment of languages and it doesn't take up a language slot. Ecclesiastic druids are forbidden to teach this language to non-druids. Druidic has its own alphabet. This is a modification to the theurge's bonus languages.

Druid Domains

A druid theurge still has domains and domain spells like any other theurge. One of these domains is a free choice. All other domains must be appropriate to their druid faith; Air, Animal, Earth, Fire, Healing, Plant, Protection, Strength, Sun, Water, and Weather. Another option is animal and terrain domains.

A druid theurge does not know mage armor and this spell is not part of his spell list.

Spellcasting

Druid theurges cast spells from the druid spell list rather than the cleric spell list. They still cast domain spells like a normal theurge.

In addition to the stated number of spells per day for 1st- through 9th-level spells, a theurge 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 theurge may receive for having a high wisdom score apply to both regular spells and domain spells separately and is thus applied twice.
