[Anastasia]

A new PrC, most likely for Anne in the future. It's strong, but most healing focused classes/PrCs tend to be when I write them. That's intentional. This can make channel energy fearsome at 10th level, but at that point you're nearly in range of mass heal, which outdoes it in most ways.

This PrC is a creation of Jetina and her followers. It's not restricted to them, but it does come with a fitting alignment restriction as a result of that. Anyone who wants this class is welcome to it as far as Jetina's concerned, the alignment prerequisite keeps it set on channel positive energy rather than someone perverting it into channeling negative energy instead.

Channel Energy (Su)

A lifespark's class level stacks with any other classes that grant channel energy. A 10th level cleric/1st level lifespark channels energy as an 11th level cleric, for example.

Improved Radius (Ex)

As a lifespark delves into the secrets of positive energy, she learns how to propel that energy further and increase the area channel energy affects by 10ft. At 3rd level and every two levels thereafter, the area increases by an additional 10ft. Should the lifespark have any other means to increase the area of channel energy, these effects stack.

Selective Healing (Ex)

A 2nd level lifespark can direct the energy she channels so that it aids her allies and not her enemies. She may exclude any creatures she wishes from the effects of her channel energy.

Greater Channeling (Ex)

As a lifespark grows in skill, so does the potency of their channel energy ability. At 4th level, she increases the die of her channel energy ability by one step. This goes in progression from d4 to d6 to d8 to d10 to d12. If the lifespark already has a d12, she instead converts each d12 to 2d6 and repeats this pattern (2d8, 2d10, 2d12). For example, a cleric 5/lifespark 4 would normally channel energy for 5d6, but with this they'd channel for 5d8 instead.

At 9th level the lifespark again increases the dice of her channel energy ability by one step.

Healer's Grace (Ex)

At 6th level, the lifespark's channel energy ability encompasses even herself. She gains the benefits of channel energy when she uses it. She may choose to exclude herself from the effects if she wishes.

Rejuvenation (Ex)

When the lifespark channels energy, her power heals deeper injuries. For each die of channel energy, 1 point of ability damage is restored. For example, a lifespark who heals 5d6 points of damage with channel energy would heal 5 points of ability damage. The lifespark may choose how this healing is distributed for each creature affected.

Maximized Channeling (Ex)

An advanced lifespark's channel energy is far more powerful than that of a lesser lifespark. The result of any use of channel energy is maximized. The results of empower turning apply afterwards as normal. For example, a lifespark who heals 10d6 points of damage with channel energy would heal 60 points of damage, then 90 after empower turning is applied.
