Infamous Class: Organ Master
Clerics of Armok / Organ Masters
!! WORK IN PROGRESS !!
The dark sect of Organ Masters created by Providence was founded in more recent days, designed with the twisted intent of commanding the bodies of other humanoids. Under the pretense of Armok's dark powers, these Clerics of Armok are incredibly powerful evil Clerics with a strong focus on controlling the battlefield. Their blood magic is feared across the land, with Clerics of Armok thrive on any opponent that bleeds. As such, Organ Masters have a strong obsession with blood, often prizing the blood of their victims as a trophy above all others. Clerics of Armok will often collect and store the blood and organs of their victims for use as spell components later on.
Among the first of these Organ Masters was Uldroc Lane, who was born in a hidden facility in Errothar. This facility was meant as an experimentation ground where people would be brought to this place in an attempt to indoctrinate them into one of their different Clerical sects, Anti-Paladins, Blademasters, and Clerics of Armok. Through rituals in blood magic, these people were experimented on to create a form of super-weapon, having people with abilities beyond what should humanly possible. Providence finally succeeded at his experiments in blood magic, and finished his dark art. An experiment on Human children in 727 led these two siblings being blessed with an impossibly high Wisdom score, potentially leading to two Clerics of impossible power. Unfortunately, this facility was raided not even a week later by a group of mercenaries led by Cian of the house Tuatha, who managed to destroy most of the facility. One of the two children was found by Cian during this attack, who took her with him as he fled along with a few other people who had been experimented on. Thankfully, one of the two children managed to stay hidden. This child was Uldroc, who had achieved impossible Wisdom. Over the next few years, he was trained in the dark arts of the experimental blood magic. He assisted Providence with his research, finally becoming an Organ Master as soon as the class was finished.
He now searches Farvion for his sister, who was taken at an early age. When he learned that she had mysteriously vanished in Port Lance in 743, he took to the seas in search of his lost sibling. He had discovered several pirates in the area known to take recruits off the ships they'd destroyed, and his investigation began. In 745 he learned of the acts of the "Dragon Pirate", a legendary Thief who death seemed to follow wherever he went. To this day he searches for the Dragon Pirate, to find out what's happened to his sister...
...And there will be bloodshed.
In order to play an Organ Master, the character must first be either Human or Half-Orc, and also of evil alignment. A minimum of 19 wisdom and 12 constitution is also required.

Organ Masters will begin with 2 weapon proficiencies available as normal Clerics do, however the allowed proficiencies for the class differ from the proficiencies allowed by normal Clerics. Organ Masters must never wear armor, as part of their dark magic involves the absorption of blood directly through the skin, an act which is impossible while armored. In addition, Organ Masters are allowed the use of bladed weapons only. That is to say, the Organ Master must use weapons that draw the most blood possible from their opponents. Organ Masters may take any daggers, axes, or scimitars as their weapons. Organ Masters gain proficiencies at the rate of 1 every 4 levels, as Clerics do.

**- Organ Masters require +250,000 experience points for each level after the 10th.
Firstly, all Organ Masters are generally regarded positively by Vampires, as both share a unique obsession with blood. Blademasters will also always regard Organ Masters with respect, often seeing Organ Masters as senior to them.
Organ Masters are immune to disease, and add +2 to their saving throws against poison, due to their magically enhanced blood. Organ Summoners are also immune to the level drain effects used by some forms of undead.
Organ Masters will naturally recover additional hit points whenever resting if at least a pint of blood was consumed during the same day. These additional hit points are equal to the Organ Masters' level.
If a wisdom roll of 10 points under is made, the Organ Master can maintain concentration on a spell even after suffering damage.
Organ Masters may never roll to control or turn undead.
Organ Masters are generally masterful at playing the organ, a large instrument where keys are struck to produce noise made from a large array of pipes*
*- Or so it's thought, as for whatever reason, Organ Masters seem to have an obsession with these instruments.

1st Level
Contagion (Abjuration) Reversible Level: 1Range: Touch Casting Time: 1 SegmentDuration: Permanent Components: V,S,MArea Of Effect: Special Saving Throw: None
Description: The magic of the Contagion spell allows for the Organ Master to transfer a disease between two creatures. When casting this spell on a diseased creature, the disease is multiplied, instantly spreading to the Organ Master. Note that it will have no effect, considering the Organ Master's immunity to disease. The reverse of this spell, Spread Contagion allows for the Organ Master to release the disease from himself to his target. Physical contact is required for the transference of the disease. The material component of this spell is a small tick, living or dead.
Inflict Light Wounds (Necromantic) Level: 1Range: Touch Casting Time: 1 SegmentDuration: Permanent Components: V,SArea Of Effect: One creature Saving Throw: None
Description: Except as noted above, this spell is identical to the reversed 1st level Cleric spell, Cure Light Wounds, only that the damage inflicted is 1-12. As normal, a roll to hit must first be made.
Enlarge (Alteration) Reversible Level: 1Range: 1/2"/Level Casting Time:1 SegmentDuration: 1 Turn/Level Components: V,S,MArea Of Effect: One Creature Saving Throw: Special
Description: This spell is functionally identical to the 1st level Magic-User spell, Enlarge, except that it may only be cast on living creatures.
Stream of Blood (Necromantic) Level: 1Range: 2" Casting Time: 1 SegmentDuration: Special Components: V,S,MArea Of Effect: One creature Saving Throw: Neg.
Description: This spell causes a disgusting beam of a blood-like substance to spray forth from the Organ Master's fingertips at a single target within the spell's range. This beam inflicts 1-10 damage if a saving throw versus magic is not made. If the save is failed, the Organ Master's hit points are restored by 50% of the damage dealt.
Stream of Shadow (Necromantic) Level: 1Range: 2" Casting Time: 1 SegmentDuration: Special Components: V,S,MArea Of Effect: One creature Saving Throw: Neg.
Description: This spell causes a horrible beam of impure negative energy to shoot forth at a single target within the spell's range. This beam inflicts 1-10 damage if a saving throw versus magic is not made. If the save is failed, the target also suffers a -1 on all "to-hit" rolls made afterward for 1 round for each level of the caster.
Summon Simple Organs (Necromantic) Level: 1Range: 3" Casting Time: 1 SegmentDuration: Permanent Components: V,S,MArea Of Effect: One creature Saving Throw: Neg.
Description: This foul magic allows the Organ Master to summon forth a simple organ from the body of the target. If the victim fails a saving throw, a single minor part of the target's body detaches and appears in the hand of the Organ Master. The recipient of this spell also suffers 1-6 points of damage if the saving throw is failed. The material component of this spell is a tiny sample of blood tissue. The removed organ will grow back if soaked in holy water for an hour.
