The tantrist is a wizard that channels sexual energies. Often considered something of a perversion, either from a moral standpoint or because he uses energies in the physical world that ought to be channeled into spirituality, the tantrist is always a controversial figure. Tantrists practice all kinds of magic, but most of them are capable of dramatically destructive eruptions of power.
Class Abilities
This archetype has all normal class abilities, except as noted.
Class Skills
The tantrist's class skills are Appraise (Int), Bluff (Cha), Craft (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Fly (Dex), Knowledge (Arcana) (Int), Knowledge (Local) (Int), Knowledge (Religion) (Int), Profession (Wis), and Spellcraft (Int).
Sexual Spell Preparation (Ex)
A tantrist has a spellbook, but does not need it to prepare spells. Instead, the tantrist must engage in one hour of sexual activity with another creature to prepare spells. The tantrist's sexual partner must be a helpless or cooperating intelligent creature, one he is sexually attracted to. It can be a summoned creature or otherwise under the tantrist's control. Using an unwilling partner this way is of course an evil act.
The tantrist needs his spell book to engage in spell research, to scribe new spells, or to create magic items.
Once per day, as a full-round action, the tantrist can prepare any one spell from his spellbook that he is capable of casting. This is in addition to any normal spell preparation for the day.
This replaces the wizard's arcane bond class feature.
Sexual Spell Focus (ex)
At first level a tantrist gains Spell Focus (Evocation) as a bonus feat. This replaces the Scribe Scroll bonus feat wizards gain at level 1
