Dissolving Touch (Sp)

At 1st level, you can deliver a melee touch attack that infuses a creature’s flesh with the chaos of the primordial ocean. You inflict 1d6 hp damage +1 for every 2 sorcerer levels you possess. At 7th level, the touched creature is also slowed for 1 round. At 11th level, the damage increases by one step to 1d8. This damage bypasses damage reduction as untyped energy damage. You may use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier.

Formless (Ex)

At 3rd level, you gain a bonus to your CMD equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier. You also gain a +4 bonus to resist polymorph and petrification effects. At 9th level, if you fail a save against a petrification or polymorph effect, you revert to your normal form after 1 round.

Hydromancer (Ex)

Starting at 9th level, you may cast a spell with the Silent Spell metamagic feat without increasing the spell’s level or casting time 1/ day. You may use this ability 2/day at 13th level, and 3/day at 17th level.

Protean Shape (Sp)

At 15th level, you can change into a watery version of yourself, as if you had cast liquid form. You can do this a number of rounds per day equal to your sorcerer level. These rounds do not need to be consecutive.

Ocean Lord (Ex)
