Archfiend (Uncommon)

With a thought, the passion of your fiendish desires becomes evident in your eyes and posture. For the next minute, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Deception, Diplomacy, and Intimidation skill checks. In addition, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to counteract checks. At 18th level, these circumstance bonuses increase to +3.

You consider every fiend a future subject and can assess them at a glance. Spend a Mythic Point. Attempt a check at mythic proficiency to Recall Knowledge about every fiend you can see. For the next hour, whenever you roll a success on a Deception, Diplomacy, or Intimidation check against a fiend, you get a critical success instead.

Thanks to your continued belief in your ultimate transformation, you have learned greater control over your manifested realm. If you spend a Mythic Point when you Manifest your Realm, you can use the Drain Realm, Spread Realm, and Unleash Realm free actions.

You have been in contact with a retinue of fiends, brokering all manner of deals so that they may eventually serve you. When you Manifest Your Realm, you can choose to have one such fiend come to your aid. This fiend is a common fiend of level 11 or lower, which you select when you take this feat. The fiend appears in a place of your choosing within your manifested realm and has the minion trait. They remain for as long as your realm is manifested, until they're reduced to 0 Hit Points, or until you command them to leave, at which point they immediately vanish and return to their place of origin.

At 20th level, you can choose a common fiend of level 15 or lower to appear instead when you Manifest your Realm.

You can teleport across the battlefield, disappearing and appearing in a burst of hellfire and brimstone, a flash of lightning, a cloud of caustic gas, or other environmental hazard common within your planned realm. You can cast Translocate as a 4th-rank divine innate spell at will. When you do, spaces adjacent to the one you leave from and the one you appear in are momentarily filled with a damaging energy common to your realm, dealing 4d6 damage of your realm's damage type to creatures in the affected spaces (Basic Reflex save against your class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher).

Your sheer determination has created a demiplane that houses a grand residence which will serve as the heart of your planned realm. You determine the appearance of this seat of power, such as a duskwood longhouse, a crumbling stone castle, an ice tower, or a pagoda constructed from the solidified souls of the damned.

You can enter your realm using the Enter Seat Of Power activity. You and any creatures you choose gain three times as many Hit Points when resting within your seat of power. Once per day while within your seat of power, you can cast Cleanse Affliction as a 4th-rank innate divine spell or Sound Body as a 4th-rank innate divine spell. You can target only yourself with these spells.

With a terrifying pronouncement, you manifest a visible sign of your authority and fiendish power, such as a crown of flame upon your brow, a scepter forged of solidified souls, or a throne comprised of a dozen dragon skulls. This object appears in your space or in your hand, as appropriate, and remains for 1 minute. When your sign of power appears, attempt an Intimidation check to Demoralize each enemy within 30 feet who can see or hear you. These Demoralize attempts don't take any penalty for not sharing a language. As long as your sign of power remains manifested, your enemies can't reduce the value of their Frightened condition below 1.

You can spend 1 Mythic Point as part of performing this action; if you do, frightened creatures grovel before you, in awe of your terrible power. At the beginning of their turn, a creature that has the frightened condition from Brandish Authority must attempt a Will saving throw against your class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher. On failure, they must Drop Prone. On a critical failure, they must Drop Prone and can't Stand this turn.

Requirements Your last action dealt damage to a creature.

Rather than grant your foes the mercy of a swift death, you can consign them to suffer in an extradimensional prison with an appearance of your choosing. Spend 1 Mythic Point to force a creature that you dealt damage to with your last action to attempt a Will saving throw against your class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher. Regardless of the result, the target is temporarily immune to your Imprison Foe for 24 hours.

Critical Success The target is unaffected.

Success The target is Stunned 2.

Failure The target is transported into a cell within your extradimensional dungeon for 1 minute. It is unable to leave or damage the cell in any way. Teleportation effects can't carry the target outside the cell unless they can also traverse the planes, such as interplanar teleport. At the end of each of its turns, it can attempt a new Will save to reduce the remaining duration it is imprisoned by 1 round or end it entirely on a critical success. When the duration ends, the target returns to the space it occupied when it was imprisoned, or to the nearest space if the original is now filled.

Critical Failure As failure, but the target is stunned for the first round it is imprisoned.

You can strike a profane bargain with a willing, sapient creature. That creature promises to never take hostile actions against you, to never lie to you, to never speak of this bargain, and to either perform, or refrain from performing, one other specified task, such as paying you a specified sum every year, gifting you their first-born child, or never speaking.

If the target accepts, they verbally make a request. You can choose to twist their request by selecting specific details, as long as you still fulfill the requirements of their request. If the request could be granted by a Wish ritual, you spend 1 Mythic Point and the request is magically granted.

As long as the bargain persists, you always know the target's location, can communicate telepathically with the target at any distance, and can see through the target's senses by taking a single action that has the concentrate trait. Once per day, you can take control of the target as an activity that takes three actions and has the concentrate trait. When you do, they become Controlled by you for 10 minutes. They have no memory of their time spent under your control.

If the target ever breaks the terms of this bargain, you immediately select one of the following punishments: they die, they die and you possess their soul, they become permanently controlled by you, or they become imprisoned in a cell within your realm's dungeon (you must have the Imprison Foe feat to select this final option).

A target can only enter into a Profane Bargain with you once—not even the breaking of this bargain, death, a wish ritual, or divine intervention frees them of this limitation. You can't make a Profane Bargain with yourself.

Through all your machinations and accumulation of power, you have completed your apotheosis and become a true archfiend. You gain the fiend and unholy traits and are immune to your realm's damage type. You don't age. Your planned realm becomes a complete reality, forming within a section of Hell, the Outer Rifts, the Netherworld, its own fiendish demiplane, or some other planar space of your choosing. If you have the Seat Of Power feat, that seat of power is grafted onto your realm and the Enter Seat Of Power activity transports you to any place within your realm; otherwise, you can enter and exit your realm in a similar fashion with a brief ritual that takes 10 minutes (though you can't bring anyone with you).

Whenever you would die, you are instead reduced to 0 Hit Points, become Unconscious, and are immediately transported to your seat of power within your realm. After 1 hour (or 1 round if you have the Seat of Power feat), you regain 5 Hit Points and reawaken. You can't leave your realm until you're fully healed or 1 week passes (whichever comes first).

In addition, you gain a small group of fiendish followers who reside in your realm. They never leave your realm (though one might occasionally come to your aid if you have the Marshall Fiendish Forces feat), but they constantly spy on the mortal world to keep you informed. You are telepathically linked to these followers and can choose to speak with the group, or a specific fiend, as a three-action activity that has the concentrate trait. In doing so, you can avail yourself of the fiends' surveillance to learn about the world or current events. You can either Recall Knowledge on any topic or Gather Information. If you critically fail to do either, you get a failure instead.
