Pestilence Bloodline
You were born during the height of a great magical plague, to a mother suffering from an eldritch disease, or you suffered an eldritch pox as a child, such that your very soul now carries a blight of pestilence within it.
Bloodline Skill: Heal
Bloodline Arcana
Requirements: BaB or CL 1, Heal 3, 5 EXP
Oozes and vermin are susceptible to your strange magic. You treat them as humanoid creatures for determining the effects of spells upon them, ignoring their mindless trait.
Plague Outbreak (Sp)
Requirements: BaB or CL 3, Heal 5, 9 EXP
You may spend a standard action to cause a plague to break out in a 30 ft radius burst in a location that you can see. For a number of rounds equal to your caster level (minimum 1), sores and rancid smelling pustules break out on any creatures within the area of effect. These sores cause the victims to be sickened for the duration of their time within the area, plus a number of rounds equal to your Primary Casting Attribute modifier upon leaving the plague-ridden area. You may use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Primary Casting Attribute modifier.
Accustomed to Awfulness (Ex)
Requirements: BaB or CL 5, Heal 7, 15 EXP
You become immune to the sickened condition, and receive a +4 bonus on saves against disease. At caster level 7, you also become immune to the nauseated condition and to all diseases (though you may carry them around if you wish).
Shroud of Vermin (Su)
Requirements: BaB or CL 9, Heal 10, 27 EXP
Swarms no longer attack or otherwise damage you, and you may spend a Standard action to command any swarm (even those summoned by other casters) to do your bidding, as long as your Caster Level meets or exceeds theirs.
Pestilential Breath (Su)
Requirements: BaB or CL 15, Heal 15, 45 EXP
The sickness within your body finally becomes so potent that your very breath is deadly. As a standard action, you can exhale a cloud of pestilence in a 30-foot cone. Those caught in the area of this miasmic cloud receive a single Fortitude save to avoid suffering the effects of two different diseases. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + your caster level level + your Primary Casting Attribute modifier. You can choose what two diseases you inflict on each target that succumbs to your plague breath, but they must be two different diseases chosen from the disease list. When struck by this ability, the creature(s) within the breath instantly suffer the effects of both of your chosen diseases, as if they failed the first saving throw. Upon using this ability, you must wait 1d4 rounds before using it again.
Plague Carrier (Su)
Requirements: BaB or CL 20, Heal 20, 60 EXP
You become a wretched creature, a carrier of the worst things in life. At will, any spell which inflicts hitpoint damage on your enemies infects them with mummy rot with no saving throw involved. You gain DR 10/- from the multitude of wretched insects making their home in your rotted flesh. You gain SR 10 + your caster level, as no mage can seem to find you within your own bones. Lastly, you are immune to all poisons and diseases.
