Whispers of Immortality: a Pathfinder 1e Supplement for Path of War
Whispers of Immortality Playtest [PEACH]
The path to immortality is winding and is different for each who walks it. Whether they seek to attain it through enduring crafts or arts, majestic magical works, great deeds of heroism or infamy, or founding their own dynasty. This book explores those who would leave their mark upon eternity through mastery of self and many of the different ways of doing so.
So I've been putting a new book together after the response I received for Shards of Power, and its finally all put together!
Playtest document can be found here
This is Whispers of Immortality, a 3rd party supplement for Pathfinder 1e using Dreamscarred Press's Path of War subsystem as well as Akashic Magic and Psionics, And Drop Dead Studios' Spheres of Power system. It incorporates many themes from Japanese, Chinese, Persian, and other mythologies to create fun and interesting content.
Inside you can find the Following:
-The Mahesvara, an archetype for the Rajah Path of War/Akashic Magic class that has the ability to summon powerful champions associated with constellations.
-The Dao Healer, an Akashic Magic archetype for the Medic class that punches people to life....or death.
-The Mandala Disciple, an archetype for the Troubadour champions of the spheres class that can swap between various martial arts styles.
-The Ahzeab, a Path of War archetype for the Volur akashic class that uses martial arts to weaken and cripple their foes.
-Alternate racial traits for 5+ races!
-15 new feats including a new type of feat: Trance Feats.
-New veils for every martial discipline and more, including Dao descriptor veils that enhance martial maneuvers!
Please PEACH and tell me what you think, leave me a comment either here or on the document.
Note: I'm currently working to get more art from the artist I used when Shards of Power was published. You can see her art in the link to Shards of Power in my signature or on my post in the Member-Produced-Commercial-Content thread.

Re: Whispers of Immortality: a Pathfinder 1e Supplement for Path of War
I really like the flavor and ideas in here, and will def try and test it if I get the chance. One thing I did notice on my first read-through, and apologies if this is too nitpicky, but the wording of Soundless Crash is confusing.
I think it's calling for the target to make an opposed attack roll, but it only actually says "opposed attack" in the Essence effect. It also references the opponents "check", which I think is supposed to be said attack roll?
Also, the Essence effect says they get a bonus on the opposed attack roll, but unless I'm totally misunderstanding, the target is the one making the opposed roll.
Apologies for any formatting weirdness, I'm writing this on mobile.

Re: Whispers of Immortality: a Pathfinder 1e Supplement for Path of War
Got comments that the background was too bold and made it difficult to read the text. Lowered opacity so the background is less overpowering but still present.

Re: Whispers of Immortality: a Pathfinder 1e Supplement for Path of War
Edits made for ability and power balance-
-Sigil of Mentalism- edited base veil effect allowing you to expend psionic focus. effect now doubles bonus on a single autohypnosis check or will save, creating greater synergy with sleeping goddess effects.

Re: Whispers of Immortality: a Pathfinder 1e Supplement for Path of War
Edited the Dao Healer's Qi Resurgence ability to now read as follows:
"...When the dao healer does this, they and all allies within 30ft gain 1d4 temporary hit points for every remaining point of animus the dao healer possesses and a bonus on Fortitude saves equal to her medic initiation modifier for one round.
These temporary hit points last for one minute or until lost, and stack with temporary hit points gained from other sources as normal (but not from additional uses of the medic's maneuver recovery). They may instead choose to reduce these temporary hitpoints by an amount up to the dao healer’s initiation modifier to gain that number as additional healing or damage to their next initiated maneuver that is used before the end of their next turn.
If the dao healer had no uses of Prana Mudra remaining when they recovered their maneuvers, they may expend 2 additional points of animus as part of Qi Resurgence to regain 1 use of Prana Mudra."
this brings the ability more in line with the original medic recovery ability while also including archetype's new effects and flavor.
