Ancestral Form: Occasionally, enwi learn how to return to their ancestral forms for a short time These lucky few gain the following supernatural ability: For minute per level each day, the enwi can assume the appearance of a single form of the humanoid subtype they chose with augmented The form is static and cannot be changed each time it takes this form The enwi gains a +10 racial bonus on Disguise checks made to appear as the member of the race whose appearance it assumes Changing its shape is a standard action This trait otherwise functions as alter self, save that the creature does not adjust its ability scores The time an enwi spends in its ancestral form need not be consecutive, but it does need to spend that time in 1-minute increments This ability replaces silver tongued Enwi Favored Class Bonuses Enwi gain favored class bonuses as members of the race they chose with their augmented racial trait Enwi Archetypes 172 Languages: Enwi begin play speaking Common Enwi with high Intelligence can also choose Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Gnomish, Goblinoid, Halfling, and Orc Alternate Racial Traits The following racial traits can be selected in place of the typical enwi racial traits Cognizant: Some enwi have the mental tenacity to allow their physical forms to be changed while keeping their minds intact These enwi are immune to enchantment effects When targeted by an enchantment effect, the enwi instead takes 1d6 damage/ level or hit die of the caster, to a maximum of 20d6 If the effect allows a save, a successful save at the effect’s DC halves the damage This replaces physical perfection Dual-Minded: Some Enwi gain a +2 bonus on all Will saving throws because of their amalgamated forms This replaces envoy An enwi qualifies for any racial archetype related to the race it chose with the augmented racial trait In addition, enwi can learn or teach the following archetype to those who seek them out Minimalist Wizard (Wizard Archetype) With their considerably shorter lifespans, enwi actually have no way of learning the kind of magic wizards spend years learning Because of this, those who wish to practice the arcane must either hope to become sorcerers or turn to the path of the minimalist Minimalist wizards learn the basics of spellcasting on which they can compound their abilities as they gain experience Unlike traditional wizards, they lack a library of handwritten spellbooks and aged mentors to tell them what they’re doing right or wrong Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: At 1st level, a minimalist chooses a number of weapons equal to her Intelligence modifier She is proficient with those weapons She is also proficient with light armor, but not with shields A minimalist can cast wizard spells while wearing light armor without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance Like any other arcane spellcaster, a minimalist wearing medium or heavy armor incurs a chance of arcane spell failure if the spell in question has a somatic component A multiclass minimalist still incurs the normal arcane spell failure chance for arcane spells received from other classes This alters the wizard’s weapon and armor proficiencies Spellcasting: A minimalist gains spells known as a sorcerer of her level +1 (maximum 20th level) Each morning, the minimalist chooses from amongst these spells when preparing her spells per day If she has access to another source of prepared spells (such as another wizard’s spellbook), she can prepare spell per spell level from those sources instead A minimalist does not learn new spells in place of those she knows The minimalist still gains spells per day as a wizard and bonus spells for having a high Intelligence modifier This alters the wizard’s spellcasting and replaces spellbook Arcane School: A minimalist who picks an arcane school in which to specialize learns an additional spell from that school at each wizard level she gains She can still cast spells from any opposed schools she may have, but doing so uses two of her daily spell slots Metamagic Feats: Because a minimalist still prepares spells, she must still prepare them with metamagic feats
