Candus Cenobite

Candus Cenobite
The Order of Candus is a group of lunatics that unlike the other four orders, fight for the rights of machine-kin regardless of whether it is evil or good, believing that all machines should be given 'fair trial'. As such they have developed a close, and often-times personal relationship with constructs and constructed creatures.

Role: Due to their close relationship with machines, they are able to communicate with them, have an unrivaled ability to maintain them, and can even mimic their abilities.

Class Features
Iron Blooded Magic (Ex): Cenobites are very familiar with the magic of the magi-teks and some are able to mimic it, When a IV class or lower magi-tek casts a magi-tek spell near the cenobite there is a 5% chance per total level of the cenobite that they can add it to their list of spells known. They cannot learn magi-tek spells by any other means, and only these spells can be used with their spells-per day.

The Cenobite casts as a Spontaneous arcane caster and the DCs of their spells, as well as bonus spells are Charisma-based or Intelligence-based (whichever is higher).

Additionally, candus cenobite levels count as Alchemist, Sorcerer, Witch and Wizard levels (but only if they have at least one of these levels already) when determining known hexes, discoveries, bonus feats and bloodline powers.

Mecha-Tongue (Ex): Starting at 2nd level, Candus Cenobites have the uncanny ability to speak the droid language of most technological constructs through telepathic means. The most common creatures who use this strange language is the Magi-teks and Beacon Servitors.

Isolating Algorithm (Su): Once per day at 3rd level, and an additional time per day at every 3rd level thereafter, the Candus Cenobite can use a temporary effect that removes one creature from time completely skipping their turns and making them unable to be targeted or affected by outside abilities for 1 turn at third level plus 1 additional turn per four caster levels, however while this effect is active, the Candus Cenobite is also removed from time and can only use their turns to use effects with a target of personal, but can end the effect at any time they wish.

At 9th level, the Candus Cenobite can elect to instead remove their magi-tek companion from time instead of themselves while this effect is active on a creature.

Machine Empathy (Ex): Starting at 4th level, the cenobite have the uncanny ability to sense what a construct is feeling or where they are located at. The target must either be touched or well-known to the cenobite.

Also with this ability, as a free action the cenobite can take any damage that would be dealt to a target construct or constructed creature

Magi-tek Companion (Ex): At 5th level, the cenobite can befriend a magi-tek creature as if it were a druid's animal companion. For the purpose of this class feature, the druid level of the cenobite is equal to the cenobite's total level -4. The chosen creature however, must be a magi-tek.

Metallurgy (Ex): At 6th level, the cenobite may use heal checks on Constructs. Machine Sympathy (Ex): Starting at 8th level, whenever the cenobite takes damage, they may as a free action transfer all damage that they would take to their magi-tek companion.

Twinning (Ex): At 10th level, the cenobite can take a second magi-tek companion, however for this secondary companion, the druid level of the cenobite is equal to the cenobite's total level -8. The cenobite can use both magi-teks simultaneously
