 +
 +**Binding DC:** 18
 +
 +**Special Requirement:** Yes
 +
 +//Arak Thunderfist, a forceful being motivated by tests of strength and his hatred of psionics.//
 +
 +**Legend:** Arak was born in the tundras to the far north and made his way to Barrow's Maw as a way to gain strength. He famously granted the last wish to an ancient red dragon and outran a purple worm after the rest of the party abandoned him. Finally, he managed to reclaim the legacy of the order of the grapple mages. Only one thing has marred his exalted and proud existence, and that was 2 consecutive losses to a hill giant that practiced the ancient art of 'sumo'.
 +
 +**Special Requirement:** Binder cannot be psionic.
 +
 +**Manifestation:** A large sized humanoid appears before the binder in a blinding lightning strike.
 +
 +**Sign:** Your eyes turn ice blue and lightning begins to crackle from your hands.
 +
 +**Influence:** You become irritable and likely to start fights with whoever you feel has slighted you. You also start using short simple and direct sentences that are mostly monosyllabic.
 +
 +**Granted Abilities: **
 +
 +__**Fists of Lightning:**__ \\
 +You can cast shocking grasp as the spell once every 5 rounds.
 +
 +__**Mage's Grip:**__ \\
 +You gain the benefits of the Improved Grapple feat.\\
 +\\
 +__**Immovable Self:**__ \\
 +As a move action you can cause your body to become suspended in space as though it were an Immovable Rod for one round. While this ability is active you can take no actions and lose your dexterity bonus to AC. Once you have used this ability, you cannot do so again for 5 rounds.\\
 +\\
 +__**Bane of Psions:**__ \\

You can invoke this ability as a standard action at 5th level, as a move action at 10th level, and as a swift action at 15th level. Once you return to visibility, you cannot use this ability again for 5 rounds.

-**Legend:**+**Legend: **Xiuhcoatl came to the Basin as a young, prideful warrior, exiled from his homeland for killing a peer in anger. He was humbled immediately during his first adventure, first being overwhelmed by housecats and then losing for seeking glory instead of freeing his allies. Over the course of their adventures, Xiuhcoatl died and returned no less than three times, each time sporting a different face and a slightly different personality. When the Serpent spirit guide settled behind their eyes and the spectre of Rulership entered their mind, the tension in their soul grew and grew. When he died for the final time, the overtaxed soul shattered, flinging shards across the world.

-**Manifestation:**+**Manifestation: **A dark-skinned face rises out of the circle at your feet and rapidly looks this way and that, ghostly afterimages of the same face as a young human, bearded dwarf, half-elf, and goblin following it. Sometimes the head appears to wear a heavy golden crown. A thin green snake slithers out of the circle and wraps itself around the person's neck, and the images stabilize, collapsing into one of the heads you saw before.
  
-**Sign:**+**Sign: **Your hair ties itself into a topknot, Xiuhcoatl's sign of contrition, and becomes perfectly symmetrical around the center of your face. Your ears point or unpoint and your facial features subtly alter, rendering your race slightly harder to identify.
  
-**Influence:**+**Influence: **Xiuhcoatl's influence requires you to remain humble and not seek out glory or recognition. However, it strengthens any desire you have for the same.
