While in most parts of the former Omban lands, the Corpseborn are prohibited from practicing magic or using fos, this does happen from time to time. The folfi, as they are called in Sardesh, or witches more commonly by outsiders, are expert in the use of fos collectively, building webs of users whose conjoined power exceeds the sum of its parts, and control over curses. Folfi are almost always trained in secret, and the mysteries of the art are kept from non-corpseborn - even to the point of denying its existence entirely, when necessary. Unlike manifests, who tend to be solitary, the power of the folfi is in their collective action, and several of them are often found in the same community.

Powers

1st level: Whenever the use of a magic spell creates a negative effect, the folfi rolls twice on the effect table and selects whichever effect they like.

1st level: The folfi has the ability to grant fortune or misfortune to others in the immediate vicinity by making a quick hand gesture. As a move action, he can grant all allies within 30 ft. a +1 morale bonus to attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks for the next round, or alternately, cause all enemies within 30 ft. to suffer a -1 morale penalty to those checks. This ability may be used a number of times per day equal to the folfi’s Wisdom modifier. The bonus or penalty increases by +1/-1 every four additional levels.

1st level: Condition resistance: The folfi has been cursed since birth, and at this point has learned to cope with enormous strain. Any effects of being confused, dazed, frightened, nauseated, panicked, shaken, or sickened have only half their normal duration, and he receives a +2 save bonus to any checks against these effects. This bonus increases to +4 at 5th level.

1st level: The folfi is fluent in Sardesh, the argot of all corpseborn, which is not shared with outsiders, but can be used to communicate with other corpseborn orally. It is not a written language.

3rd level: Zone of Fate:

5th level:

5th level: Metamagic feat: Any free metamagic feat.

7th level:

7th level: The folfi's zone of fate now causes anyone who attacks them with a melee attack to be subject to the confusion spell (Will save, DC 10 + half your level + your Con modifier).

9th level:

9th level: When rolling for negative effects of spellcasting after a failed magic check, the folfi may subtract their level from either of their two rolls. They may choose not to do so if desired.

11th level: The folfi's zone of fate

11th level:

13th level: Permanent effect: The folfi has learned to control the fos within them to the point that an area-based magical effect can be made permanent. They cast a spell that is eligible to be made permanent on the caster (see permanency) and then concentrate for one hour to make it permanent. If desired, the manifest may change the permanent effect by casting a different spell and then concentrating for an hour, but may only have one permanent effect at any time.

15th level: The folfi's zone of fate
