Class Features

All of the following are class features of the Epic Blackguard.

Spells

The blackguard’s caster level is equal to his or her class level. The blackguard’s number of spells per day does not increase after 10th level.

Smite Good

The epic blackguard gains one additional daily use of smite good every 5 levels after 10th. The epic blackguard adds his or her class level to damage with any smite good attack, as normal.

Command Undead

The blackguard commands undead as a cleric of two levels lower, as normal.

Sneak Attack

The epic blackguard’s sneak attack damage increases by +1d6 every three levels after 10th.

Fiendish Servant

Up to 20th character level, a fiendish servant’s powers depend on its master’s character level, not his or her blackguard class level. After that, they depend on his or her blackguard level. For every five blackguard levels above 10th the fiendish servant gains +2 bonus Hit Dice, its natural armor in-creases by +2, and its Strength and Intelligence each increase by +1.

Fallen Paladins

A blackguard who trades in more than ten levels of paladin can gain more than ten levels of blackguard, but only if his character level is 21st or higher.
