BGs

Currently BGs get this

Create Undead will now put an evil aura surrounding the blackguard.

This aura is 1 turn / 2 BG levels.

DC's:
10 + (BG level x 2) -- Fortitude against negative.
Damage:
(BGLvl)d4 + Target's (Paladin Level)d4 - Save for half
Fear DC:
BG level + 4 + 1 per 2 Target's Paladin Levels -- Save versus fear or be feared. Paladins will get so scared they freeze motionless.

Inflict Serious/Critical wounds is now maximized.

The aura being the main bonus, the duration on it is rather low, the maximum time it being allowed to last is 5 minutes. It'd be better with another use of it or duration increased. The fear DC is also hilariously low min dc 7 max dc of 14. Don't know what to suggest maybe 10+ BG level/2 + 4. There is no spell or otherwise effect that has a Dc lower then 11.

Working on touching this up alittle. In the meantime, duration is 1turn/per level.

well leave the 1d4 +1 str roll of bulls str as is and maybe add to it that depending on the lvl of the BG they get an automatic cha boost for the duration of the spells also.

so like:

lvl 2 BG aquires BG bulls strength

at lvl 2 BG, BG bulls strength = 1d4+1 str +1 cha
BG lvl 5 BG bulls strength = 1d4+1 str +2 cha
BG lvl 9 BG bulls strength = 1d4+1 str +3 cha
BG lvl 10 BG bulls strength = 1d4+1 str +4 cha
or if u really wanna get nasty BG bulls str =+5 str +4 cha at lvl 10 BG

Why not just give them maximized bulls str?

Because anyone with 1 min of patience can just re rest to get maximized.

Giving them charisma makes it seem that we want them all to go charisma.

Well, giving them charisma also helps those who take 8 cha, by making the dark blessing feat not a negative, because it will add whatever your cha mod is.
