Out of all the races in the Netherworld, there are few clans considered more vicious, terrible, and horrifying than the race known colloquially as the Baciels: The Baciels. Many, many millennia ago, this race of demon invaded and conquered a human civilization and used the human technology to evolve themselves and give them greater power along with their trademark arm cannon. The Baciels are constantly finding ways to empower themselves further; it is suggested that they will not rest until the Baciel Clan is at the top of the Netherworld food chain.
Baciels’ height can range from anywhere between half a dozen feet to several stories tall. Regardless of their size, each one is incredibly heavy, being weighed down by dense muscle mass and technology. They are incredibly accurate with their powerful arm cannon and are fully capable of decimating entire groups of demons on their own. It is highly suggested that if one is to encounter a Baciel, one should run like crazy!

Characteristics:
Alignment: Nearly every Baciel is Chaotic in nature, many evil, many neutral, and a small handful are good.
Religion: Baciels are usually atheists or simply do not care for putting faith in anything but their own power. There are exceptions of course, and there are many who follow Overlords in a somewhat religious manner, worshipping their strength and power. They tend to worship Overlords whom revel in destruction and Chaos, such as Zenon, Alexander, Mao, Laharl, Babylon, and El Dorado.
Other Classes: Baciels rarely ever get along with Wood Golems as they share philosophical differences and usually fight for reasons that contradict one another. These terms also keep angels, White Dragons, and other more lawful creatures from aiding Baciels. They do however get along with Baciels, Fighters and any other occupation that revels in physical strength and usually lack of morality.
Role: The Tank or heavy hitter. Baciels are often the front line creatures up with the Wood Golems and the Great Wyrms.

Class Features
*Evilty* Double Lock On
If you don't move in this round, you can make an extra attack at your highest base attack bonus.
Monster Weapon Proficiency (Ex)
Baciels are proficient and can only wield physical monster weapons, unless they have reincarnated from a previous body that had the ability to wield other weapons. Baciels have a very unique natural attack, it is a beam weapon that can fire up to 40 feet away. This attack roll, though ranged, goes off of it's Strength score. This attack is not overcome by spell resistance and deals 1d10 force damage, or the damage listed under the monster weapon, whichever is higher.
Techniques (Su)
Just like all monster classes, Baciels gain special Monster Techniques they can utilize to get an edge over their opponents. A Baciel Learns a monster technique at 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th, 15th, 18th, and 20th level. These Techniques can be chosen from the Baciel's list of techniques. The Baciel must be able to perform techniques of the technique's level to learn it. A Baciel's saving throws are based off of it's strength. Techniques indicated with a (**) are techniques. If a Baciel runs out of Monster techniques it can select, it can instead choose another normal technique from it's list. Spells not noted with an asterisk are normally spells but are used as techniques for the Baciel.
Magichange (Ex)
As a free action, a Baciel can change into a Powerful Laser Gun. The Magichange lasts as many rounds as your Constitution Mod, and when it ends, the creature returns to it's former self but is exhausted. The wielder must be unarmed and able to hold the weapon when the Baciel transforms.
Baciel Laser Cannon
Laser Bazooka
Damage: 1d10 or the Baciel's weapon damage, whichever is higher.

Rage (Ex)
A Baciel can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. Starting at 1st level, a Baciel can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier. At each level after 1st, she can rage for 2 additional rounds. Temporary increases to Constitution, such as those gained from rage and spells like bear's endurance, do not increase the total number of rounds that a Baciel can rage per day. A Baciel can enter rage as a free action. The total number of rounds of rage per day is renewed after resting for 8 hours, although these hours do not need to be consecutive.
While in rage, a Baciel gains a +4 morale bonus to her Strength and Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, she takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants the Baciel 2 hit points per Hit Dice, but these disappear when the rage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While in rage, a Baciel cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.
A Baciel can end her rage as a free action and is fatigued after rage for a number of rounds equal to 2 times the number of rounds spent in the rage. A Baciel cannot enter a new rage while fatigued or exhausted but can otherwise enter rage multiple times during a single encounter or combat. If a Baciel falls unconscious, her rage immediately ends, placing her in peril of death.
Ability Boost (Ex)
Baciels get ability score boosts to their strength and constitution scores as they are very muscular and healthy. These bonuses are gained as indicated on the table above.
Energy Resistance (Ex)
Baciels gain energy resistance as their bodies adapt to the world around them. Baciels choose 2 energy types that they gain resistance to. These resistances increase at the levels indicated on the table above.
Damage Reduction (Ex)
Baciels have powerful, thick hides that only the most legendary of heroes can penetrate. As such they gain Damage reduction overcome by Good that increases at the levels indicated on the table.
Brutal Blaster (Ex)
At 5th level, A Baciel whom has honed his skills with his weapon can fire with such a force that the attack seems almost like he threw it at you. The Baciel can add his strength modifier into damage when using his arm cannon.
Fly (Ex)
Baciels eventually gain enough strength in their small wings to take flight. At 10th, 15th, and 19th level these fly speeds increase.
Rage Power
At levels 3, 6, 9, and 12 the Baciel gains a Rage power. The Baciel uses it’s Baciel level as it’s Barbarian level to determine what Rage powers it can select. A list of rage powers can be found here. Rage Powers
Cybertech Core (Ex)
At 5th level, the core in a Baciel’s stomach becomes a Cybertech Core. This core is a hub for technological advancements and devices and can be used as a universal energy source. The Baciel possesses a number of points in this Core equal to ½ the Baciel’s level + The Baciel’s Strength modifier. The Baciel can always expend points from this pool instead of charges when using a technological item. The Baciel can expend a point from this core as a swift action to do one of the following.
- Make one additional attack at his highest attack bonus when making a full attack.
- Gain a bonus to an intelligence based skill checks equal to the Baciel’s level.
- Cast the spell Magic Missile using his Baciel level as his caster level.
Greater Rage (Ex)
At 11th level, when a Baciel enters rage, the morale bonus to her Strength and Constitution increases to +6 and the morale bonus on her Will saves increases to +3.
Greater Cybertech Core (Ex)
At 15th level, the Baciel gains the Half-Construct subtype. Half-constructs gain a +2 racial bonus on saving throws against disease, mind-affecting effects, poison, and effects that cause either exhaustion or fatigue. Half-constructs do not breathe, eat, or sleep, unless they want to gain some beneficial effect from one of these activities. This means that a half-construct can drink potions to benefit from their effects and can sleep in order to regain spells, but neither of these activities is required for the construct to survive or stay in good health.
In addition the Baciel can use it’s core to do the following as a swift action.
- Gain fortification 25% until the beginning of his next turn.
- Increase the Baciel’s fly speed by 30 feet for 5 rounds.
- Increase the Baciel’s canon damage by +1 damage dice for a single attack.
Malchidael (Su)
At 20th level the Baciel becomes the epitome of destruction and rampage, earning the title of Malchidael. Once per day as a standard action, Your size increases by one category, your height doubles, and your weight increases by a factor of eight. Your features shift into those of a cold and alien being of hellish invincibility. You gain a +6 size bonus to Strength and a +8 bonus to Constitution, a +3 natural armor bonus, and Spell Resistance of 12 + your Baciel level. This Spell Resistance also applies to technology based weapons and effects as well.
These modifiers replace the normal modifiers for increasing your size. The size modifier for AC, attacks, CMB, and CMD changes as appropriate for your new size category.
The Baciel gains resistance to all energy types (Fire, Acid, Sonic, Cold, Electricity, Disintegration, Force, Negative energy, Holy, and Unholy), blindsense 30 feet, and a fly speed of 60 feet (good maneuverability).
Your natural weapons and any weapons you wield are considered chaotic-aligned for the purpose of overcoming damage resistance
Finally, while in this form, the Baciel gains Immunity to bleed, disease, death effects, necromancy effects, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, stunning, ability damage, ability drain, fatigue, exhaustion, energy drain, or nonlethal damage. As well as Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects, or is harmless). These are immunities from a construct and so creatures that can effect constructs with these abilities can affect the Baciel still.
If insufficient room is available for the desired growth, you attain the maximum possible size and may make a Strength check (using your increased Strength) to burst any enclosures in the process (see Breaking and Entering). If you fail, you are constrained without harm by the materials enclosing you-the spell cannot crush you by increasing your size.
All equipment you wear or carry is similarly enlarged by this spell. Melee weapons deal more damage. Other magical properties are not affected by this spell.
This lasts for 1 round per level and cannot be dispelled.
