Portalist

The homebrew Portalist class represents the ultimate mobile combatant. Based on a 1e OGL third-party class, the portalist is fast, and once per turn, as a flourish action, she can create a portal to teleport herself. Portalist feats allow her to add additional effects to her portals on top of the teleportation, such as the ability to bring along allies, deal damage, gain bonuses to attacks or defenses or even summon extraplanar creatures. Later on, she can also form permanent portals, become invisible or incorporeal or otherwise gain substantial mobility benefits from her connection to the planes. You can think of the portalist as a cross between a monk and a kineticist: it is a fast martial with action compression, but it can execute a variety of spell-like effects, mostly focused on mobility. The portalist's stats: Key ability Strength or Dexterity HP per level 8 Expert in Perception, Reflex Trained in Simple weapons, light armor, rapier, shortsword and kukri Class features: 1. Class feature: Standard portal. As a flourish action that doesn't provoke attacks of opportunity, you can spend an action to teleport up to your speed to a square you can see. 2.

You become expert in simple weapons, unarmed attacks, rapier, shortsword and the kukri, and these weapons also trigger critical specialization effects. Level 5: Expert in Will. Level 5
