Enter a world where nothing is as it seemswhere the battlef ield might be within your mind, and the prize might be your immortal soul. Through the esoteric secrets of the occult, bold seekers of knowledge can bring a candle to light the darkness of the unknown, and begin to unravel that strangest of all riddles: the truth.
Within this hidden world, youll f ind strange and wondrous new powers, vast and unknowable enemies, and unlikely allies who request strange favors in return for the esoteric lore they hoard. Youll voyage into the mind, out of your body, and onto other planes of existence. If you keep your wits about you, you may return alivebut even then, few survive such an experience unchanged. To achieve your goals, what will you lose of yourself ? What will you be willing to sacrif ice? Who will you become?
Practitioners of occult lore often refer to the hidden magical traditions of the occult as psychic magic. Casting a psychic spell relies entirely on the thoughts and emotions surging through your mind and spirit,
rather than on incantations or gestures. In this way, occult practitioners can hide in plain sight amongst other spellcasters. Your villages local sorcerer might be a kindly psychic searching for the solution to a karmic riddle, or a cunning mesmerist slowly building a cult of mind-controlled followers. Yet in the world of the occult, mysteries contain layers upon layers, and the solution to the psychics karmic riddle might release a horror trapped on the Astral Plane, while the mesmerists mind-controlled cult may be there to protect the villagers from a great evil sealed deep beneath the town.
Protecting innocents from dangers they cant seeor even comprehendrequires a unique breed of heroes, those initiated in esoteric lore and willing to take risks with not just their bodies, but their minds and souls as well. Occult power comes at a price, and even if youre willing to pay it, you may f ind the responsibilities it brings largely thankless. When a paladin uses her holy might to stop an army of undead from rampaging

IntroductionIntroduction
through the kings lands, she might gain a knighthood or noble title, not to mention the adulation of the kingdom. But when an occultist uses his object lore to prevent a mad architect from changing the geometry of city districts until it blends and merges with that of a malevolent sentient metropolis from an alien dimension, he and the architect may be the only ones who truly understand the threat. And if the architect is beloved by citizens and authorities alike for his philanthropic works and grand civic monuments, the occultist who saved the city may well need to f lee before he f inds himself in a prison cell. And even then, will he avoid the wrath of other members of the architects secret society and their monstrous interdimensional patrons? Such are the lives of those who labor at the edge of mortal understanding, and who know that each action, however well intentioned, has unintended consequences, like ripples in a pond.
WHAT ARE OCCULT ADVENTURES?Any adventure could incorporate occult elements, from mystery cults to creatures that attack the psyche, so in a world where wizards and clerics ply their spells in the open and magic is accepted and understood, what separates an occult adventure from any other adventure? The core concept that drives an occult adventure is that raw power isnt everything. In a typical campaign, adventurers strive to improve their might so they can take on bigger and bigger challenges. But a student of the occult knows that power can corrupt, that some battles can never be won by brawn, and that there are beings capable of ignoring the normal rules of the multiverse, walking among even the greatest and most powerful like a wolf among sheep.
One of the hallmarks of an occult campaign is a focus on the mind over direct combat and confrontation. Most occult classes possess more mental abilities than physical, and they have the tools to peer into thoughts, ask for aid from the beyond, and unravel mysteries. Rather than exploring only physical ruins, occult adventurers uncover the psychic history of places and objects. When magical weapons cant defend against vengeful spirits, a treatise on the manifestation of extraplanar beings may hold the key. Subverting the doctrines of a cult proves a more certain method of ending its threat than killing its leader would.
An occult adventure is a study in complications and paradoxes, in which uncovering a mystery reveals an even greater mystery. Knowledge is the only way to deal with an occult problem, but learning more invites even greater danger. Exploration of a strange plane or dreamscape might show that the place is even more complex than initially thought. A crusade to defeat a dark and unknowable force can lead to a climactic encounter
in which the adventurers discover their quarry doesnt fear its own destruction or banishment. Likewise, occult creatures and forces can f ind adventurers just as mystifying and contradictory as the adventurers f ind the denizens of the occult.
Suggestions for running occult adventures, as well as common elements that appear within them, are detailed in Chapter 6: Running an Occult Game.
PSYCHIC MAGICOccult spellcasters draw on the vast reserves of their own minds to access magical abilities. Psychic magic is an entirely new type of spellcasting that follows different principles than arcane and divine magic. A psychic spellcaster doesnt have to obey the same restrictions as an arcane or divine caster, and forgoes the physical components of spells entirely. She doesnt need to wave her arms, speak words laden with magical portent, or burn up symbolic physical matter in the process of casting. Instead, she need only keep her mind aligned properly, providing a detailed mental image or bringing up a particular emotion to cast her psychic spell. Even someone bound or paralyzed can cast a psychic spell, as long as her intellectual and emotional states arent compromised. Self-doubt, lack of concentration, and fear are the enemies of a psychic caster, not the depredations of the physical world.
For all their differences, psychic spells are still spells, and psychic spellcasters are still spellcasters. Most of

the spells a psychic character can cast resemble those of her arcane and divine allies, albeit accessed in an alternativeway. Consequently, the spell lists for psychic spellcasters largely consist of existing spells, and non-psychic casters can also choose many of the spells in Occult Adventures.
The rules for using psychic magic are detailed fully in Chapter 4: Psychic Magic.
NAVIGATING THIS BOOKEach chapter of this book contains rules arranged around one particular theme, such as classes, archetypes, feats, or spells. While most of the chapters are useful for GMs and players alike, Chapter 6 in particular is of great use to GMs interested in running an occult game.
Chapter 1Occult Classes: Where are the heroes who can save the world from the unknowable threats of the occult? Right here in this chapter, which includes six new occult classes! Not only are these classes a perfect f it for a game steeped in the occult themes found throughout this book, they also contain the same variety of themes, concepts, and play styles that youve come to expect from Pathfinder RPG base classes, allowing them to f lourish in nearly any campaign, from a game of somber horror to a lighthearted dungeon romp. The following is a quick overview of some of the most interesting and iconic features of each class.
Kineticist: Masters of the elements, kineticists wield a strange and ill-controlled power as their bodies strain to act as vessels for the roaring might of the Elemental Planes. A kineticist can manipulate the elements both in combat to destroy her foes and out of combat to aid her team. By straining her body past the limits of safety, she can increase her ability beyond what she can ordinarily achieve. If you want to play a mystical non-spellcaster who can pay a great personal price to boost her abilities in emergencies, you should consider playing a kineticist.
Medium: The Astral Plane is home to entities of thought that are shaped and empowered by tales of those who came before. The medium channels these legendary spirits, idealized versions of the original stories protagonists, and uses the spirits varied powers to change his own so he can f ill any role a party might need. If you enjoy versatility and the ability to be exactly what the group needs in a given situationas well as roleplaying interactions with spirits and the drawbacks of being inf luenced by themyou should consider playing a medium.
Mesmerist: Master mentalists and consummate liars, mesmerists use their eerie stares to weaken their foes and contingent hypnotic tricks to prepare their allies in advance for bad situations. The mesmerist f ills the support role of the bard, but instead of strengthening
and protecting his allies, he weakens and disables his foes. If you enjoy playing a skillful character who can support the party but are interested in shaking it up by being more on the offensive, you should consider playing a mesmerist.
Occultist: Steeped in esoteric lore but still strongly tied to the physical world and its trappings, occultists access magic through the power of their implements, which may be magic items or even ordinary objects with psychic signif icance, such as a saints f inger bone, a dagger used in 99 ritual sacrif ices, or a necklace belonging to the occultists mother. With resonant and focus powers from his implements, plus psychic spells, a large set of skills, object-reading powers, and powerful binding circles, the occultist has something to add to almost any situation. If you enjoy playing a well-rounded character whose abilities revolve around a collection of unique items, you should consider playing an occultist.
Psychic: Powerful and enigmatic, psychics are the primary spellcasters of the occult world, and the sole practitioners of certain psychic spells of great power. Each psychic approaches her magic through a chosen discipline that grants her special abilities, and her mastery of the art of phrenic amplif ication allows her to alter and adjust her spells on the f ly to suit her needs. If you like playing spellcasting characters such as sorcerers and also enjoy versatility and tinkering, you should consider playing a psychic.
Spiritualist: When the dead are chained to the mortal world by strong emotions, they inevitably descend toward the Negative Energy Plane, warping and twisting into undead. A spiritualist bonds with one of these spirits before that transformation is complete, providing a safe haven for this phantom and gaining a powerful servant in exchange. If you want a companion with the ability to switch between a variety of forms and even meld into your characters form to increase her options, you should consider playing a spiritualist.
Chapter 2Archetypes: Bring the power of the occult to all your favorite classes or customize the new occult classes with dozens of archetypes. In addition, youll f ind new alchemist discoveries, cavalier orders, sorcerer bloodlines, and witch patrons. Will you play a psychic detective or a battle host? A ghost rider or a tome eater? No matter what kind of character you like to play, this chapter has plenty of fun new options for you to explore.
Chapter 3Feats: This chapter contains dozens of featssome supporting the new classes, others available to any character looking to dip her toes into the occult, and still others that tie into the new occult rules in Chapter 5. From a teamwork feat allowing you to combine two elemental blasts into a composite one to a feat allowing you to open your mind to other peoples

IntroductionIntroduction
emotions at the cost of weakening your mental defenses, these feats allow you to build all sorts of occult characters.
Chapter 4Psychic Magic: This chapter introduces psychic magic, a completely new type of magic thats neither arcane nor divine, and that uses thought and emotion components instead of verbal and somatic ones. Of the panoply of new spells in this chapter, several are spells that can be undercastwith this new type of tiered spells, spellcasters who know them are also able to cast all the weaker versions. Whether you use akashic form to keep a copy of yourself that you can employ to escape death, or create an enormous vessel to sail the Dimension of Dreams with dream voyage, youll never be the same again (especially if you cast major mind swap to switch bodies forever)!
Chapter 5Occult Rules: This chapter contains a variety of exciting new subsystems that are part and parcel of an occult game but also fit easily into any game, either on their own or taken all together.
Skill Unlocks: Occult skill unlocks build on the idea of skill unlocks for the rogue from Pathfinder RPG Pathfinder Unchained, adding new and wondrous applications to your favorite skills that are open to occult characters and psychic sensitives alike. Use Linguistics for automatic writing to foretell the future, Appraise for psychometry to learn more about an objects past, Heal to perform startling acts of faith healing, and much more.
Auras: Those attuned to the occult can learn much about a creature, object, or place from its aura. While magic and alignment auras have been in the game since the start, this section details aura types such as emotion and health, and adds new depth to the metaphysical meaning of auras.
Chakras: By studying the esoteric lore of chakras, you can learn a deeper application of ki and use kundalini serpent-f ire energy to awaken the chakras within you. By successively opening your chakras, you become increasingly powerful as battle continuesso long as you can survive the strain!
Psychic Duels: Enter an inner dueling ground where the only limits to what you can do are your own imagination. When your foe calls forth a thought-form cobra, counter it with a thought-form hydra. When she threatens you with psychic vines, unleash a storm of inner f ire. Such battling is exhausting, and never undertaken lightlyfor despite the unreality of the mindscape in which you f ight, the stakes of such a duel are life and death.
Psychic Possession: Possession and body-swapping spells can be crucial to occult adventures, and this short section provides you with everything you need to know to play a body-snatching character with ease.
Occult Rituals: Some of the deepest and darkest secrets of the occult, these esoteric rituals are vanishingly rare
and challenging to perform, but provide fantastic power to any character who can complete themeven those not normally able to cast spells. A GM can choose from the variety of sample rituals or design her own, but one things for surewith occult rituals, youll never look at spellcasting quite the same way.
Chapter 6Running an Occult Game: This chapter is your off icial advisor on how to infuse your game with mystery, secrets, and menace, and is full of useful tips and lore on the esoteric mindset.
Elements, Themes, and Adventure Seeds: This section is a perfect guide to running occult games for dabblers and adepts alike. It begins with definitions of occult elementsthe building blocks of a successful occult gameinterweaves those elements into themes, and finally draws from those themes to create a variety of occult adventure seeds ready for your next occult adventure.
Occult Locations: Occult locations often have mysterious elements that can grant those who explore them information or powerat a cost. While haunts have been in the game since the Pathfinder RPG GameMastery Guide, the new options in this section enhance the narrative aspect of a haunts mechanics. Conversely, the new loci spirits represent a benevolent option for lingering spiritual energy. Ley lines crisscross the multiverse and lend power to any spellcaster who f inds the rare spots where she can tap them. Mindscapes are mental landscapes that open the door to fantastic and exciting adventures in a creatures mind, or psychically created worlds where the normal rules no longer apply.
Esoteric Planes: This chapter explores the esoteric view of the multiverse held by occult scholars. The occult view of the multiverse is full of mysteries, secrets, and unusual parallelisms. Learn more about some of the odd realms that are paramount in the esoteric view, from the Dimension of Dreams to the Akashic Record and beyond.
Chapter 7Occult Rewards: The only way to f ight against some of the harshest and most alien occult threats is armed with objects of occult power. From simple mundane gear that can amplify occult skill unlocks to the mightiest artifacts, occult rewards are strange and exceptional. In this chapter, youll f ind items and esoterica from a variety of occult traditions, from a lucky four-leaf clover to the mighty stannum crown. Youll discover ways to travel to realms beyond imagining, such as the bizarre f lying skif f or the enigmatic portal network. Will you tempt fate by reaping the benef its of a cursed monkeys paw or maniac hand, knowing they may turn against you and those you love? As with all things in the world of the occult, what seems too good to be true probably is, and may come at a price you can only begin to comprehend.

Rivani floated sedately above the viscous pool. Keep it busy, Erasmus.Busy? Its plenty busy!
Erasmus struggled against the creatures tentacles, watching in horror as the flesh they touched turned to clear ooze. Busy digesting me! But the psychics gaze was
already far away. Erasmus growled in frustration, then closed his eyes and spoke to the spirit inside him. Alright, King. This is what
youve been waiting for. Time to come out and play.Barbaric laughter rang inside
his head as his hand lashed out of its own accord, starknife slicing through alien flesh...

Occult ClassesBeyond the worship of the divine and the studies of arcane scholars lies the mysterious terrain of the mind, accessed through psychic magic. Classes that draw upon psychic magic do so via innate mental abilities, whether they directly cast spells, create elemental effects, or focus psychic energy through objects. Members of these occult classes find themselves drawn to the strange and the hidden; they have connections to the timeless Astral Plane, the haunted bleakness of the Ethereal Plane, and the history of the Material Plane chronicled as psychic impressions in places and objects.
Psychic magic is a third type of magic that functions differently from arcane and divine magic. The rules for casting psychic spells appear on page 144 of Chapter 4: Psychic Magic. The occult classes spell lists include many new spells from Chapter 4, allowing them to fully express their mental powers. These spells, like other new rules elements from this book, are marked with an asterisk (*).
CLASSESThe six new classes presented in this book all use psychic magic. In most cases, this means they cast psychic spells. The new classes are as follows.
Kineticist: With a connection to the elements, a kineticist can bring forth energy in the form of kinetic blasts. Instead of casting psychic spells, the kineticist uses unique psychic spell-like abilities called wild talents to manipulate elemental energy and matter.
Medium: By contacting spirits in places of power, the medium allows the personalities of legendary heroes to overcome his own, vastly changing his abilities and spells. He holds seances to benefit himself and his allies.
Mesmerist: A mesmerists piercing stare lets him insinuate himself into other peoples minds. A master of enchantment and illusion, the mesmerist controls and inf luences the behavior of others.
Occultist: To make use of his powers, an occultist channels psychic energy into a varied collection of antiques and mementos with storied pasts. Every type of implement allows him to use a different school of magic.
Psychic: With her incredibly potent mind, the psychic can cast spells that are more powerful than those of members of any other occult class. She accesses these spells through a specific discipline, and can bend and amplify psychic spells as she casts them.
Spiritualist: Attuned to the spirits of the dead, a spiritualist forms a bond with a phantoma returned spirit that has unfinished business but did not become undead. This spectral ally can alternate between forms, emerging from the safety of the spiritualists mind to take on an incorporeal form or an ectoplasmic body.
KineticistKineticists are living channels for elemental matter and energy, manipulating the world around them by drawing upon inner reserves from their own bodies. Kineticists often awaken to their kinetic abilities during a violent or traumatic experience, releasing their power involuntarily. As kinetic power is seldom inherited, kineticists are rarely able to find mentors to guide them, so they must delve into these mysteries on their own to learn to control their gifts.
Role: Kineticists generally use their powers to assail their foes from range, but based on the way their talents develop, they can channel their kinetic abilities for a variety of situations. Kineticists are usually quite different from their families and friends, so they often strike out on their own or alongside others with extraordinary talents.
Alignment: Any.Hit Die: d8.Starting Wealth: 1d6 10 gp (average 35 gp).
CLASS SKILLSThe kineticists class skills are Acrobatics (Dex), Craft (Int), Heal (Wis), Intimidate (Cha), Perception (Wis), Profession (Wis), Stealth (Dex), and Use Magic Device (Cha).
Skill Ranks per Level: 4 + Int modifier.
CLASS FEATURESThe following are the class features of the kineticist.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Kineticists are proficient with all simple weapons and light armor, but not shields.
Elemental Focus (Su): At 1st level, a kineticist chooses one primary element on which to focus. This element determines how she accesses the raw power of the Ethereal Plane, and grants her access to specific wild talents (see below) and additional class skills. She can select aether (telekinesis), air (aerokinesis), earth (geokinesis), fire (pyrokinesis), or water (hydrokinesis). She gains her selected elements basic utility wild talent (basic telekinesis, basic aerokinesis, basic geokinesis, basic pyrokinesis, or basic hydrokinesis; see page 23) as a bonus wild talent. See Elements on page 14 for the specific abilities granted by each element.
Wild Talents: A kineticist can use wild talentsmagical abilities similar to spells but drawn from the kineticists innate psychic talent and usable at will. Wild talents are typically spell-like abilities (though some are supernatural abilities), and take a standard action to use unless otherwise noted. A wild talent always has the elemental descriptor or descriptors (aether, air, earth, fire, or water) matching its Element entry. A wild talent that can be used with any of several elements gains the appropriate elemental descriptor when used with an element. For example, the wall wild talent gains the earth descriptor when used by a geokineticist.

Occult ClassesOccult Classes 1Every wild talent has an effective spell level. A kineticist
can always select 1st-level wild talents, but she can select a wild talent of a higher level only if her kineticist level is at least double the wild talents effective spell level. Kinetic blast and defense wild talents are always considered to have an effective spell level equal to 1/2 the kineticists class level (to a maximum effective spell level of 9th at kineticistlevel18th).
Unless otherwise noted, the DC for a saving throw against a wild talent is equal to 10 + the wild talents effective spell level + the kineticists Constitution modifier. The kineticist uses her Constitution modifier on all concentration checks for wild talents.
In addition to the wild talents she gains from her other class features, at 2nd level and every 2 levels thereafter, a kineticist selects a new utility wild talent from the list of options available to her. A kineticist can select only universal wild talents or those that match her element (see Elemental Focus above). At 6th, 10th, and 16th levels, a kineticist can replace one of her utility wild talents with another wild talent of the same level or lower. She cant replace a wild talent that she used to qualify for another of her wild talents.
Burn (Ex): At 1st level, a kineticist can overexert herself to channel more power than normal, pushing past the limit of what is safe for her body by accepting burn. Some of her wild talents allow her to accept burn in exchange for a greater effect, while others require her to accept a certain amount of burn to use that talent at all. For each point of burn she accepts, a kineticist takes 1 point of nonlethal damage per character level. This damage cant be healed by any means other than getting a full nights rest, which removes all burn and associated nonlethal damage. Nonlethal damage from burn cant be reduced or redirected, and a kineticist incapable of taking nonlethal damage cant accept burn. A kineticist can accept only 1 point of burn per round. This limit rises to 2 points of burn at 6th level, and rises by 1 additional point every 3 levels thereafter. A kineticist cant choose to accept burn if it would put her total number of points of burn higher than 3 + her Constitution modifier (though she can be forced to accept more burn from a source outside her control). A kineticist who has accepted burn never benefits from abilities that allow her to ignore or alter the effects she receives from nonlethal damage.
Kinetic Blast (Sp): At 1st level, a kineticist gains a kinetic blast wild talent of her choice. This kinetic blast must be a simple blast that matches her element.
As a standard action, the kineticist can unleash a kinetic blast at a single target up to a range of 30 feet. She must have at least one hand free to aim the blast (or one prehensile appendage, if she doesnt have hands). All damage from a kinetic blast is treated as magic for the purpose of bypassing damage reduction. Kinetic blasts count as a type of weapon for the purpose of feats such as Weapon Focus. The kineticist is never considered to be wielding or gripping the kinetic blast (regardless of effects from form infusions; see Infusion on page 12), and she cant use Vital Strike feats with kinetic blasts. Even the weakest kinetic blast involves a sizable mass of elemental matter or energy, so kinetic blasts always deal full damage to swarms of any size (though only area blasts deal

extra damage to swarms). A readied kinetic blast can be used to counterspell any spell of equal or lower level that shares its descriptor. A kinetic blast that deals energy damage of any type (including force) has the corresponding descriptor.
The various kinetic blasts, as well as additional rules for simple blasts, are described on pages 1516.
Gather Power (Su): If she has both hands free (or all of her prehensile appendages free, for unusual kineticists), a kineticist can gather energy or elemental matter as a move action. Gathering power creates an extremely loud, visible display in a 20-foot radius centered on the kineticist, as the energy or matter swirls around her. Gathering power in this way allows the kineticist to reduce the total burn cost of a blast wild talent she uses in the same round by 1 point. The kineticist can instead gather power for 1 full round in order to reduce the total burn cost of a blast wild talent used on her next turn by 2points (to a minimum of 0 points). If she does so, she can also gather power as a move action during her next turn to reduce the burn cost by a total of 3 points. If the kineticist takes damage during or after gathering power and before using the kinetic blast that releases it, she must succeed at a concentration check (DC = 10 + damage taken + effective spell level of her kinetic blast) or lose the energy in a wild surge that forces her to accept a number of points of burn equal to the number of points by which her gathered power would have reduced the burn cost. This ability can never reduce the burn cost of a wild talent below 0 points.
Infusion (Su): At 1st level, a kineticist gains an infusion wild talent from the list of options available based on her elemental focus. She gains additional infusions at 3rd, 5th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 17th, and 19th levels. By using infusions along with her kinetic blasts, a kineticist can alter her kinetic blasts to suit her needs. Infusions come in two types, each of which changes a kinetic blast differently: a substance infusion causes an additional effect, while a form infusion causes the kinetic blast to manifest in a different way. Each infusion can alter only certain kinds of kinetic blasts, which are listed in its Associated Blasts entry. Each time the kineticist uses one of her kinetic blast wild talents, she can apply up to one associated form infusion and up to one associated substance infusion. Some infusions change the action required to activate a kinetic blast or entirely transform the kinetic blasts normal effects. The burn cost listed in each infusions Burn entry is added to the burn cost of the kinetic blast the infusion modifies.
The DC for a save against an infusion is based on the associated kinetic blasts effective spell level, not the level of the infusion. The DCs for form infusions are calculated using the kineticists Dexterity modifier instead of her Constitution modifier. When a kineticist modifies a kinetic blast with a form infusion and a substance infusion that both require saving throws, each target first attempts a saving throw against the form infusion. If a target succeeds and a successful save negates the infusions effects, the entire kinetic blast is negated; otherwise, the target then attempts a saving

Occult ClassesOccult Classes 1throw against the substance infusion. If a kineticists form and substance infusions both alter the kinetic blasts damage, apply the substance infusions alteration first.
At 5th, 11th, and 17th levels, a kineticist can replace one of her infusions with another infusion of the same effective spell level or lower. She cant replace an infusion that she used to qualify for another of her wild talents.
The descriptions of infusions begin on page 17. Elemental Defense (Su): At 2nd level, a kineticist
gains her elements defense wild talent ( the descriptions of defense wild talents begin on page 16).
Elemental Overf low (Ex): At 3rd level, a kineticists body surges with energy from her chosen element whenever she accepts burn, causing her to glow with a nimbus of fire, weep water from her pores, or experience some other thematic effect. In addition, she receives a bonus on her attack rolls with kinetic blasts equal to the total number of points of burn she currently has, to a maximum bonus of +1 for every 3 kineticist levels she possesses. She also receives a bonus on damage rolls with her kinetic blast equal to double the bonus on attack rolls. The kineticist can suppress the visual effects of elemental overf low by concentrating for 1full round, but doing so suppresses all of this abilitys other benefits, as well. The next time the kineticist uses any wild talent, the visual effects and benefits return instantly.
As a kineticists body becomes more and more suffused with her element, she begins to gain more powerful benefits. Starting at 6th level, whenever she has at least 3 points of burn, the kineticist gains a +2 size bonus to two physical ability scores of her choice. She also gains a chance to ignore the effects of a critical hit or sneak attack equal to 5% her current number of points of burn. At 11th level, whenever the kineticist has at least 5 points of burn, these bonuses increase to a +4size bonus to one physical ability score of her choice and a +2 size bonus to each of her other two physical ability scores. At 16th level, whenever the kineticist has at least 7points of burn, these bonuses increase to a +6 size bonus to one physical ability score of her choice, a +4 size bonus to a second physical ability score of her choice, and a +2 size bonus to the remaining physical ability score.
Infusion Specialization (Ex): At 5th level, whenever a kineticist uses one or more infusions with a blast, she reduces the combined burn cost of the infusions by 1. This cant reduce the total cost of the infusions used below 0. She reduces the burn cost by 1additional point at 8th, 11th, 14th, 17th, and 20th levels.
Metakinesis (Su): At 5th level, a kineticist gains the ability to alter her kinetic blasts as if with metamagic feats by accepting burn. By accepting 1 point of burn, she can empower her kinetic blast (as if using Empower Spell). At 9th level, by accepting 2points of burn, she can maximize her kinetic blast as if using Maximize Spell. At 13th level, by accepting 3 points of burn,
she can quicken her kinetic blast as if using Quicken Spell. At 17th level, by accepting 4points of burn, the kineticist can use her kinetic blast twice with the same standard action, or swift action if she also uses metakinesis to quicken the blast. When she uses a double kinetic blast, all modifications, such as metakinesis and infusions, apply to both of the blasts, but the kineticist needs to pay the burn cost only once.
Internal Buffer (Su): At 6th level, a kineticists study of her body and the elemental forces that course through it allow her to form an internal buffer to store extra energy. The buffer starts empty and doesnt replenish each day, but the kineticist can accept 1 point of burn to add 1 point to the buffer as a full-round action, to a maximum of 1 point total. This maximum increases to 2 points at 11th level and to 3 points at 16th level. Once the kineticist adds points to her buffer, they remain indefinitely until she spends them. When she would otherwise accept burn, a kineticist can spend 1 point from her buffer to avoid accepting 1 point of burn. She cannot spend more than 1 point from her buffer in this way for a single wild talent. Points spent from the internal buffer dont activate elemental overf low or add to its effects. Similarly, this buffer can be used to exceed the limit on the number of points of burn the kineticist can accept in a single turn.
Expanded Element (Su): At 7th level, a kineticist learns to use another element or expands her understanding of her own element. She can choose any element, including her primary element. She gains one of that elements simple blast wild talents that she does not already possess, if any. She also gains
all composite blast wild talents whose prerequisites she meets, as well as the basic wild talent of her chosen
expanded element (for instance, basic aerokinesis if she chooses air). See Composite Blasts on page 15 for additional rules for and descriptions of composite blasts. She doesnt gain the defense wild talent of the expanded element.
If the kineticists expanded element is different from her primary element, she treats her kineticist level as 4 levels lower for the purpose of determining which wild talents she can learn from her expanded element.
If the kineticist chooses to expand her understanding of an element she already has, she gains an additional utility wild talent or infusion of her choice from that element, as if from her infusion or wild talent class feature, as appropriate.
At 15th level, the kineticist can either select a new element or expand her understanding of her original element. She cant select the same element she selected at 7th level unless it is her primary element. She gains all the benefits from her new expanded element as listed above. However, if the kineticist selected her primary element as her expanded element at both 7th and 15th levels, her mastery of that element increases. For wild talents of her element, the kineticist gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and damage rolls, as well as to caster level and DCs.

Supercharge (Su): At 11th level, when using gather power as a move action, a kineticist can reduce the total burn cost of a single wild talent by 2 points instead of 1. When using gather power for 1 full round, she can reduce the burn cost of a single wild talent by 3 points instead of 2.
Composite Specialization (Su): At 16th level, a kineticist becomes more adept at creating composite blasts. She reduces the burn cost of all composite blasts by 1 point. This cant reduce the cost of a composite blast below 0 points.
Metakinetic Master (Su): At 19th level, a kineticist chooses one type of metakinesis, such as empower or quicken. She reduces the burn cost of that metakinesis by 1 point (to a minimum of 0 points).
Omnikinesis (Su): At 20th level, a kineticist transcends the distinction between the different elements and can bend all creation to her will. By accepting 1 point of burn (in addition to any burn requirement of the kinetic blast she chooses), she can use any blast wild talent she doesnt know. By accepting 1point of burn as a standard action, she can change any of her wild talents into any other wild talent of the same category (such as simple blasts or defense) for 24 hours, ignoring any elemental requirements or restrictions (but not any other requirements or restrictions).

WILD TALENTSKineticists wild talents shape the expression of their powers.
Kinetic BlastsKinetic blasts comprise simple and composite blasts.
Simple BlastsA kineticist gains a simple blast from her primary element at 1st levelsome elements offer more than one option. When a kineticist gains a new element via the expanded element class feature, she gains a simple blast from that element as well. Each simple blast is either a physical blast or an energy blast. Physical blasts are ranged attacks that deal an amount of damage equal to 1d6+1 + the kineticists Constitution modifier, increasing by 1d6+1 for every 2 kineticist levels beyond 1st. Spell resistance doesnt apply against physical blasts. Energy blasts are ranged touch attacks that deal an amount of damage equal to 1d6 + 1/2 the kineticists Constitution modifier, increasing by 1d6 for every 2 kineticist levels beyond 1st.

Composite BlastsComposite blasts combine elements to form a new blast. When a kineticist gains a new element through expanded element, she gains access to all composite blasts for which she qualifies. Most composite blasts are either physical or energy blasts, like simple blasts. Physical composite blasts deal an amount of damage equal to 2d6+2 + the kineticists Constitution modifier, increasing by 2d6+2 for every 2 kineticist levels beyond 1st; energy composite blasts deal an amount of damage equal to 2d6 + 1/2 the kineticists Constitution modifier, increasing by 2d6 for every 2 kineticist levels beyond 1st.
