The Sea Devil

prestige class

Author: Steven Trustrum

Illustrator: Shawn Richter

Special Thanks: Scott Barrie

At least one level each of barbarian and pirate

are necessary to become a sea devil, after which the

player should decide which class(es) will fulﬁ ll the

prestige class’ remaining qualiﬁ cations at the desired

rate. Additional barbarian levels will meet the combat

requirements faster, but a few more levels of pirate will

certainly make the sea devil a better sailor.

“Gnash your shields and strap on the

iron, lads. We’re wavebound!”

Hit Die: d10

Wise men know to fear the squared sails of the

northmen’s ﬂ eet, for upon the decks of those

shallow boats are ruthless raiders with looting

mirrored in their eyes and murder panting in their

hearts. The “sea devils” are the worst of these

northmen, so named for their pitiless greed and

the screaming fury that possesses them in a ﬁ ght,

allowing them to swoop down upon a settlement

and ravage it as though they were not men, but demons

sent from hell itself.

Requirements

Race: Sub-arctic dwelling northman

Attribute: Str 13+, Con 13+

Base Attack Bonus: +6

Codes of Honor: Barbaric

Feats: Cleave, Fighting-Madness,

Power Attack

Despite their violent thievery and savagery in

battle, sea devils are not evil nor are they inherently

corrupt. Raiding is their livelihood as much as

animal husbandry or farming is the trade of

others. It does not occur to them that the

communities they live upon consider their

raiding immoral and foul, for it is the only

life they know. It is a life granted them by

the gods and they honor that gift through

the glory of death, killing and plunder

from the decks of their dragonships.

Skills: Balance 6 ranks, Climb 6

ranks, Jump 4 ranks, Profession (Sailor) 8

ranks, Use Rope 4 ranks

Special:

Seamanship

Fearless

Class Skills

The sea devil’s class skills (and

the key ability for each skill) are

Balance (Dex), Climb (Str), Craft

(Any Mundane) (Int), Intimidate

(Cha), Jump (Str), Knowledge

(Geography) (Int), Knowledge (Local)

(Int), Move Silently (Dex), Profession

(Wis), Survival (Wis), Swim (Str),

Use Rope (Dex.)

Campaign Use

Obviously, a sea devil is ideal for

seaborne games, especially along

frigid coastlines, but they will ﬁ t

in just about any other game with

a bit of imagination. A sea devil

who ﬁ nds himself out of place

plundering warmer climates can

be an interesting challenge, as can

one who ﬁ nds himself stranded

ashore. Northmen feel out of place

in southern cities as it is (or any city, for that

matter), but how would a sea devil react to long

months without the smell of salt water in his

nostrils, the feel of the sea’s winds in his hair, or the

rocking of a sturdy deck beneath his feet?

Skill Points At Each Level: 4 + Int

The sea devil is proﬁ cient with all simple and martial

armor, and shields.

Due to practice while boarding ships, a 5th level sea

devil can conduct a charge that includes a single jump

or swinging action. All other obstacles impede a charge

as normal.

Raider

Along with standard Reputation Modiﬁ ers, a

sea devil’s reputation is affected by activities directly

related to raiding ships and settlements. See Table 1-1:

Sea Devil Reputation Modiﬁ ers . At the Gamemaster’s

discretion, other classes may also beneﬁ t from these

reputation modiﬁ ers, at full or reduced value.

Furthermore, any ship the sea devil is captaining

gains a +2 competence bonus to Boarding Maneuvers

with his vessel.

Crushing Blow

By successfully sundering an opponent’s shield or

weapon, a 7th level sea devil can make an attack against

the shield or weapon’s wielder as a free action, but only

using his base attack bonus and with a -4 penalty to the

attack roll.

Howling Fury

A 2nd level sea devil can enter a Fighting-Madness

2/day, as per the feat (this includes the 1/day from the

feat.) Once the enraged state ends, the character cannot

enter it again for at least 3 rounds. At 6th level the sea

devil can enter a Fighting-Madness 3/day and 4/day at

10th level.

Raid to Glory

When leading raiders against an enemy, an 8th level

sea devil grants any shipmates in the unit he leads a +4

bonus to their Military Cohesion.

Weathered Hide

Raider’s Grace

3rd level sea devils are so accustomed to spending

months on end upon the high-seas of the north that he

gains a +4 competence bonus to saving throws against

all cold effects.

9th level sea devil’s are so accustomed to ﬁ ghting

under the inﬂ uence of their Howling Fury ability that

they no longer suffer the -2 penalty to their Defense

Value while caught up in their Fighting-Madness.

Great Cleave

At 4th level, the sea devil gains the Great Cleave

feat.
