====Ninja Archetype: Skootztik====
Requirements: Roddun
Racial Features
The following are racial traits of the skootztik.
Quick Ascension: Skootztiks have a base speed of 30ft and a climb speed of 60ft. The trait replaces the movement racial trait

Class Features
The following are class features of the skootztik.
Tzitik (Su): Instead of a ki pool, skootztik have tzitik. Mechanically, tzitik works the same as ki. She gains tzitik points by focusing on low-quality gems (worth 10gp each) in her possession and drawing on power from within them, but she does not need to be actually holding the gemstones to use her tzitik. They only need to be on her in some manner or in a bag she is carrying. While a skootztik can carry any amount of gemstones, she can only focus a number equal to 1/2 her skootztik level + her highest ability modifier. All class features that need the skootztik to spend a ki point to activate spend a tzitik point to activate the ability instead.

Vertical Runner (Ex): At 6th level, a skootztik learns to walk up walls or other vertical surfaces. As a full-round action, she can move up to twice her climb speed, ignoring difficult terrain. She must end her move on a surface that can support her or make a Climb check to hold onto the vertical surface she is on. When moving in this way, she does not need to make Acrobatics checks to avoid falling on slippery or rough surfaces. This ability replaces the light steps class feature.

The following ninja tricks function differently for the skootztik.
Darkvision: This trick also grants the skootztik the ability to see on top of her benefits from blindsight.

Ki Block: Tzitik counts as ki for all intents and purposes, so ki block can be used to cut a skootztik off from her tzitik.

Wall Climber: This trick adds 20 ft to the skootztik's current climb speed.

The following master tricks function differently for the skootztik.

See the Unseen: This trick also grants the skootztik the ability to see on top of her benefits from blindsight.

Unbound Steps: This trick allows a skootztik to use her tzitik to remain running on a vertical surface at the end of her turn when she is using her vertical runner class feature. She does not need to be on a horizontal surface or make a climb check to remain on the vertical surface. Each use of this ability uses up 1 tzitik point. This ability modifies the ki pool class feature.
