About this mod
Converts the spicy Paladin class Blackguard and custom subclass Shadoweaver created by xarara from a level 20 class to a level 12 class. As if a level 20 class wasn't strong enough, this current iteration is obscenely busted, probably even on solo play. You have been warned.

What does this mod feature?
Converts Blackguard by xarara to a Level 12 Class. How does it it do this?
- All Class features are compressed to a 12 level progression. Details will be provided below.
- This class becomes full-caster class like a Sorcerer as opposed to a half-caster like a Paladin, the class it was inspired from. As such it has a full-caster's Spell Slot progression. Yes, that means by level 11 the Blackguard has access to level 6 spells. Yes, that means there are that many more Slots to Smite your enemies with.
- Level 7 Spells introduced by this mod, namely Abberant Shadows, don't cost a level 7 spell slot, but instead run on a long rest cooldown. Spells from 5E were not touched as this class will not have access to level 7 spell slots or those spell list levels.
Compatibility
Before we get into the specific changes, let's briefly go over what you absolutely need.
- All Requirements listed on original mods page, except Unlocked Level Curve 13-20 by nitram166. If you are using it, don't select Level 13 on the level up screen. I have included a dummy level 13 to prevent crashes, and pivot into a multiclass. Though, if you are able to go up to Level 20, might as well use the original author's mod.
-
The original mod utilizes Script Extender to retroactively add 5E Spells, and other optional spells mods the author has cited into the Blackguard's Spell Lists, so there is no way remove it as a requirement as it is also likely that spell effects are also based on those present in 5E Spells.5E Spells is no longer a requirement, but if you were using it before and want to remove it, respec to another class WITH with mod installed, then respec back once you've removed, assuming this is the only class using 5E spells. You may have to do it with each class that had access to those spells.
WARNING! This mod is extremely unbalanced as a martial class WITH full spellcasting AND class features as amazing as these is unheard of. As you climb levels the effects of only stack. Run it solo or some extra restriction if you want some semblance of a challenge, but its laughable to even think about.
