Just an idea I came up with some time ago... not sure if it's worth implementing. It is not an AD&D class though.

==========

BLOOD SHAPER : Blood Shapers are select few warriors who have mastered the use of their lifeblood and energies, allowing them to enhance their combat skill or speed, or to enhance their resistance to elements, to magical assaults or to physical attacks. These effects may cause fatigue and temporary physical harm in return for limited effectiveness, but with sufficient rest and preparation they can be stacked to great potency. These makes Blood Shapers able to handle many different combat situations, making them valuable and highly sought after warriors, especially in adventuring parties. It is believed that like Sorcerers, Blood Shapers have some special heritage, though it is more likely to be that of demons or other worldly denizens. Still, foolish use of their abilities can lead them to untimely demise, which is sometimes irreversible.
