Feats

Complete Scoundrel

1 A fighter can select this feat as one of his fighter bonus feats.

2 A monk can select this feat as one of her monk bonus feats.

3 A scout can select this feat as one of her scout bonus feats.

ADVANTAGEOUS AVOIDANCE [LUCK]

You have a knack for ducking at just the right moment.

Prerequisite: Character level 3rd, any luck feat.

Benefit: You can expend one luck reroll as an immediate action to force a foe to reroll a critical hit confirmation roll made when attacking you.

You can expend two luck rerolls as an immediate action to force a foe to reroll an attack roll made against you.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

Special: Unlike other luck feats, you can use this feat after seeing the success of the roll to be affected.

ASCETIC STALKER []

You have practiced a secret technique that combines your considerable talents in unarmed combat with a greater understanding of your inner ki.

Prerequisite: Ki power, ki strike (magic).

Benefit: Your monk and ninja levels stack for the purpose of determining the size of your ki pool.

For example, a 4th-level monk/2nd-level ninja with this feat could use her ki powers a number of times equal to 3 (half the sum of her monk and ninja levels) + her Wisdom bonus (if any).

Your monk and ninja levels also stack for the purpose of determining your unarmed strike damage, as well as your ki strike class feature.

For example, a 4th-level monk/6th-level ninja would deal 1d10 points of damage with her unarmed strike, and her unarmed strike would overcome damage reduction as a lawful magic weapon (as if she were a 10th-level monk). In addition, you can multiclass freely between the monk and ninja classes.

You must still remain lawful in order to continue advancing as a monk. You still face the normal XP penalties for having multiple classes more than one level apart.

Special: A monk can select Ascetic Stalker as a bonus feat at 1st, 2nd, or 6th level instead of one of the other feats indicated for those levels (PH 41).

BETTER LUCKY THAN GOOD [LUCK]

You can succeed where others would surely fail.

Prerequisite: Bardic music, Perform 6 ranks.

Benefit: As a standard action, you can expend one daily use of your bardic music ability to allow yourself and all allies within 60 feet to avoid taking nonlethal damage for hustling (PH 164).

CHORD OF DISTRACTION [BARDIC MUSIC]

You can channel the power of your bardic music to make a sudden sound or gesture that momentarily distracts an opponent.

Prerequisite: Bardic music, Perform 9 ranks.

Benefit: As an immediate action, you can expend three daily uses of your bardic music ability to distract an opponent. The target must be within 30 feet of you and able to hear or see you.

Make a Perform check, opposed by the target’s Sense Motive check (modified as if you were using Bluff to feint in combat). If you succeed, that opponent is rendered flat-footed against an ally of your choice.

CONCUSSION ATTACK [AMBUSH]

Your attacks can damage your opponent’s ability to think clearly.

DARING OUTLAW []

You combine grace and stealth to deadly effect.

Prerequisite: Grace +1, sneak attack +2d6.

Benefit: Your rogue and swashbuckler levels stack for the purpose of determining your competence bonus on Reflex saves from the grace class feature and the swashbuckler’s dodge bonus to AC.

For example, a 7th-level rogue/4th-level swashbuckler has grace +2 and gains a +2 dodge bonus to AC, as if she were an 11th-level swashbuckler.

Your rogue and swashbuckler levels also stack for the purpose of determining your sneak attack bonus damage. For example, a 7th-level rogue/4th-level swashbuckler would deal an extra 6d6 points of damage with her sneak attack, as if she were an 11th-level rogue.

DARING WARRIOR []

You combine agility and extraordinary combat prowess to great effect.

Prerequisite:Weapon Specialization, grace +1.

Benefit: Your fighter and swashbuckler levels stack for the purpose of determining your competence bonus on Reflex saves from the grace class feature and the swashbuckler’s dodge bonus to AC.

Prerequisite: Sneak attack +4d6.

Benefit: By spending an extra daily use of your ki power when you activate it, the chosen effect lasts for an additional round (ki power is a class feature of the ninja).

You also gain one extra daily use of your ki power.

EPIC OF THE LOST KING [BARDIC MUSIC]

You can channel the power of your bardic music to reinvigorate your allies.

Prerequisite: Bardic music, Perform 6 ranks.

Benefit: As a move action, you can expend one daily use of your bardic music ability to remove fatigue from up to three allies (including yourself) within 30 feet.

You can use your luck to aid an ally—at the risk of your own neck.

Prerequisite: Character level 3rd.

The attack roll result remains the same, but it is against your AC, rather than that of your ally. If the redirected attack hits you, you take an extra 50% damage from it.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

HEAD SHOT [AMBUSH]

By striking at your opponent’s head, you can temporarily disrupt his thought processes.

Prerequisite: Sneak attack +6d6, Weapon Focus (any bludgeoning weapon).

Benefit: Your successful sneak attack with a bludgeoning weapon for which you have selected Weapon Focus leaves your foe confused for 1 round.

A successful Will save (DC 10 + the number of extra damage dice normally dealt by your sneak attack + your Dex modifier) negates this effect.

If you use this feat a second time on a target before 1 round has elapsed, the effect of the first use expires.

Using this feat reduces your sneak attack damage by 5d6.

Special: You must be able to reach your foe’s head to use this feat with a melee attack.

^{* Vargouilles summoned as familiars do not possess the kiss supernatural ability.}

You can choose a familiar with an alignment up to one step away on each of the alignment axes (lawful through chaotic, good through evil).

For example, a chaotic good spellcaster could acquire a neutral familiar.

A lawful neutral spellcaster could acquire a neutral good familiar.

Except as noted here, improved familiars otherwise use the normal rules for familiars (PH 52).

Special: This feat was originally presented on page 200 of the DMG; the description here provides new alternatives for arcane spellcasters who want familiars stealthy and versatile enough to follow them anywhere.

IMPROVED SKIRMISH []

With a few extra steps, you gain even greater benefits from your skirmishing combat style.

Prerequisite: Skirmish +2d6/+1 AC.

Benefit: If you move at least 20 feet away from where you were at the start of your turn, your skirmish damage increases by 2d6 and your competence bonus to AC from skirmish improves by 2.

Normal: A scout’s bonus damage and AC bonus apply if she moves at least 10 feet away from where she was at the start of her turn (see the skirmish class feature in the sidebar on page 25).

You practice a powerful fighting style that focuses equally on martial skill and mystical dedication.

Benefit: Your fighter and ninja levels stack for the purpose of determining the size of your ki pool, as well as your AC bonus.

For example, a 5th-level fighter/1st-level ninja with this feat could use his ki powers a number of times equal to 3 (one-half his ninja and fighter levels) + his Wisdom bonus (if any), and would have a +1 bonus to AC (as if he were a 6th-level ninja).

Your fighter and ninja levels also stack for the purpose of qualifying for feats that require a minimum fighter level, such as Greater Weapon Focus.

Special: A fighter can select Martial Stalker as one of his fighter bonus feats (PH 38).

MASTER SPELLTHIEF []

Your arcane studies allow you to mingle arcane magic of different flavors for great effect.

Prerequisite: Ability to cast 2nd-level arcane spells, steal spell.

Benefit: Your spellthief levels stack with levels of other arcane spellcaster classes (that is, levels of any class that grants arcane spellcasting other than the spellthief) for the purpose of determining what level of spell you can steal. For example, a 4th-level spellthief/4th-level wizard could steal spells of up to 4th level, as if he were an 8th-level spellthief.

Your spellthief and arcane spellcaster levels also stack when determining your caster level for all arcane spells. The character described above would have a caster level of 8th for both his spellthief spells and his wizard spells.

In addition, you do not incur a chance of arcane spell failure for arcane spells cast or stolen from other classes, but only if you are wearing light armor. You incur the normal arcane spell failure chance when wearing medium or heavy armor or when using a shield.

Normal: A spellthief does not incur a chance of arcane spell failure when casting spellthief spells in light armor. He incurs the normal arcane spell failure chance for other arcane spells he casts, including those stolen from arcane casters (Complete Adventurer 15).

MERCIFUL STRIKE [AMBUSH]

You can strike a creature’s vital areas without killing it.

Prerequisite: Sneak attack +2d6.

Using this feat reduces your sneak attack damage by 1d6.

MIND DRAIN [AMBUSH]

Your attack can weaken your opponent’s mental powers.

Prerequisite: Power point reserve, sneak attack +2d6.

Benefit: Your successful sneak attack drains power points from your target equal to its manifester level (minimum 1). If this attack reduces your target to 0 power points, the opponent also loses any psionic focus. A target that has no power points when you make the sneak attack is not affected by this feat.

You can’t use this feat on the same target more than once per round.

Using this feat reduces your sneak attack damage by 1d6.

MISER’S FORTUNE [LUCK]

Items belonging to you and your allies are abnormally resistant to damage.

Benefit:Whenever an opponent makes a sunder attack or Strength check to damage an object within 30 feet of you, you can expend one luck reroll as an immediate action to force that opponent to reroll.

In addition, as long as you still have one luck reroll remaining for the day, items in your possession receive a +5 luck bonus on saving throws.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

PERSISTENT ATTACKER [AMBUSH]

Once you find a target’s weak point, you can easily strike it again.

Prerequisite: Sneak attack +5d6.

Benefit: If your sneak attack hits, your first attack against that creature on your next turn is also considered a sneak attack even if it wouldn’t normally qualify. Using this feat reduces your first sneak attack’s damage by 4d6.

The resulting second sneak attack deals its full extra damage.

POISON EXPERT []

Your skill at crafting and delivering toxins has made you a more deadly poisoner.

Prerequisite: Craft (poisonmaking) 4 ranks, poison use.

Benefit: Choose a type of poison (contact, ingested, inhaled, or injury).

The DC to resist both the initial and secondary damage of poisons of this type that you create and use increases by 1. This feat has no effect on poisons used by other creatures, even if you craft those poisons. It also has no effect on natural poisons (those exuded from a creature’s body).

Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effect does not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of poison.

POISON MASTER []

The toxins you create and use are particularly virulent.

Prerequisite: Poison Expert, Craft (poisonmaking) 8 ranks, poison use.

Benefit: Choose a type of poison (contact, ingested, inhaled, or injury) for which you have selected the Poison Expert feat.

The initial and secondary damage dealt by poisons of this type that you create and use increases by 1 point per die of damage (or by 1 point, if it deals a fixed amount of damage). For example, lich dust used by a character with Poison Master (ingested) would deal initial damage of 2d6+2 Str and secondary damage of 1d6+1 Con plus 1d6+1 Str.

If a poison doesn’t deal damage, this feat has no effect. This feat has no effect on poisons used by other creatures, even if you craft those poisons.

It also has no effect on natural poisons (those exuded from a creature’s body).

Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effect does not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of poison for which you have selected Poison Expert.

PSITHIEF []

You can drain psychic energy and use it against others.

Prerequisite:Manifester level 1st, steal spell.

Benefit: You can use your steal spell ability to siphon psionic energy instead of spell energy.

Instead of stealing a spell, you can choose to steal a number of power points equal twice to the maximum level of spell you can steal minus 1 (up to a maximum value equal to the manifester level of the creature struck).

For example, a 4th-level spellthief/1st-level psychic warrior could steal up to 3 power points; if he used this ability against a 2nd-level psion he could steal only 2 power points, since that is the target’s manifester level.

You can use the stolen power points only to manifest a psionic power you already know. You must use these power points within 1 hour of stealing them; otherwise, the extra psionic energy fades harmlessly away.

This feat otherwise follows the rules for the steal spell class feature (Complete Adventurer 16). In addition, Knowledge (psionics) and Psicraft are spellthief class skills for you.

These skills appear on page 38 of Expanded Psionics Handbook.

PSYCHIC LUCK []

Some psions claim that luck doesn’t exist. You know better.

Prerequisite:Manifester level 3rd, any luck feat.

Benefit: You can expend one luck reroll as a swift action to reroll the damage dealt by a psionic power you have just manifested.

You can expend two luck rerolls as a swift action to reroll a manifester level check.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

SAVVY ROGUE []

You have mastered one or more of your rogue special abilities.

Prerequisite: Rogue level 10th.

Crippling Strike: You can deal Strength damage even to a target that is immune to extra damage from sneak attacks. Defensive Roll: You can use this ability three times per day, rather than once per day.

Improved Evasion: You gain a +2 competence bonus on Reflex saves.

Opportunist: You can use the opportunist ability as many times per round as you can make attacks of opportunity, but no more than once per creature per round. Each use of the opportunist ability counts as an attack of opportunity.

Skill Mastery:When taking 10 with a skill to which you have assigned skill mastery, you can treat the die roll as a 12 instead of as a 10.

(In effect, you’re “taking 12”). Slippery Mind: You gain a +2 competence bonus on the extra save granted by slippery mind.

SLY FORTUNE [LUCK]

Your luck helps you find the right place to move to.

Benefit: You can expend one luck reroll as an immediate action to reroll a Hide, Move Silently, or Tumble check. You gain one luck reroll per day.

SOUND OF SILENCE [BARDIC MUSIC]

You can channel the power of your bardic music to deafen your foes.

Prerequisite: Bardic music, Perform 9 ranks.

Benefit: As a standard action, you can expend two daily uses of your bardic music ability to deafen a single target for 3 rounds. A successful Will save (using your Perform check result as the DC) negates the effect.

SURE HAND []

You can perform more amazing displays of legerdemain than normal.

Normal: You are limited to a maximum number of skill tricks equal to one-half your character level.

SWIFT AMBUSHER []

You combine your scout training with the stealth of a rogue to open up new methods of ambushing enemies.

Prerequisite: Skirmish +1d6/+1 AC, sneak attack +1d6.

Benefit: Your rogue and scout levels stack for the purpose of determining the extra damage and bonus to Armor Class granted when skirmishing.

For example, a 4th-level scout/7th-level rogue would deal an extra 3d6 points of damage and gain a +3 competence bonus to AC when skirmishing, as if she were an 11th-level scout.

In addition, you can qualify for ambush feats (see page 71) as if your sneak attack bonus damage were the sum of your skirmish damage and sneak attack bonus damage. You cannot sacrifice skirmish extra damage to use those feats, however.

Special: A scout can select Swift Ambusher as one of her scout bonus feats (Complete Adventurer 13).

SWIFT HUNTER []

You have applied the hit-and-run tactics learned from scouting to your strong hunting abilities.

Prerequisite: Favored enemy, skirmish +1d6/+1 AC.

Benefit: Your ranger and scout levels stack for the purpose of determining the extra damage and bonus to Armor Class granted when skirmishing.

For example, a 4th-level scout/1st-level ranger would deal an extra 2d6 points of damage and gain a +1 competence 107 bonus to AC when skirmishing, as if she were a 5th-level scout.

Your ranger and scout levels also stack for the purpose of determining when you select additional favored enemies, as well as the total bonus granted against your favored enemies.

For example, a 4th-level scout/1st-level ranger would have two favored enemies and could allocate an extra +2 bonus against one of those favored enemies, as if she were a 5th- level ranger.

In addition, your skirmish extra damage applies against any creature you have selected as a favored enemy, even if it is normally immune to extra damage from critical hits or skirmish attacks.

Special: A scout can select Swift Hunter as one of her scout bonus feats (Complete Adventurer 13).

TEMPTING FATE []

You are very hard to kill.

Prerequisite: Character level 6th, any luck feat.

Benefit: You can expend a luck reroll to reroll a stabilization check.

In addition, once per day, whenever you have at least 1 hit point remaining and would be dealt enough damage to kill you, you can expend one luck reroll as an immediate action to take only enough damage to reduce you to –9 hit points. You automatically stabilize.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

Special: Unlike most other luck feats, using Tempting Fate requires no action.

THIRD TIME’S THE CHARM []

Your deity smiles upon you.

Prerequisite: Character level 3rd, any luck feat, access to the Luck domain.

Benefit: You can expend one luck reroll as an immediate action to use the granted power of the Luck domain an additional time per day.

You can only use this benefit immediately after using the Luck domain’s granted power (in effect, this feat gives you a third chance to succeed on the roll).

You gain one luck reroll per day.

THROAT PUNCH [AMBUSH]

By making a precise punch to the throat, you can render a target unable to speak effectively.

Prerequisite: Improved Unarmed Strike, sneak attack +3d6.

Benefit: Your successful sneak attack delivered with an unarmed strike temporarily hinders the target’s ability to speak.

For the next 3 rounds, the target takes a –5 penalty on any skill check requiring speech and has a 50% chance of failure when casting a spell with a verbal component or activating a magic item with a command word. Multiple uses of this feat don’t increase the duration beyond 3 rounds.

Using this feat reduces your sneak attack damage by 2d6.

Special: You must be able to reach your foe’s neck to use this feat.

UNBELIEVABLE LUCK [LUCK]

The powers of fortune truly smile on you more thanmost mortals.

Prerequisite: Any luck feat.

Benefit: As long as you have at least one luck reroll remaining for the day, you gain a +2 luck bonus on whichever of your saves has the lowest base bonus.

If two or more of your saves tie for the lowest base bonus, choose when you select this feat which save it applies to. If your base save bonuses later change so that the chosen save no longer has the lowest base bonus, the luck bonus from this feat immediately applies to the save that now has the lowest base bonus.

You gain two luck rerolls per day.

VICTOR’S LUCK []

You strike with devastating accuracy more often.

Benefit: You can expend one luck reroll as a swift action to reroll a critical threat confirmation roll.

You gain one luck reroll per day.

WARNING SHOUT [BARDIC MUSIC]

The force of your performance is so potent that it can guide an ally to safety.

Prerequisite: Bardic music, Perform 9 ranks, evasion.

Benefit: As an immediate action, you can expend two daily uses of your bardic music ability to grant a single ally (other than yourself) a +5 morale bonus on her next Reflex save and evasion (see the monk class feature, PH 41). The ally must be within 30 feet of you and able to see or hear you.

The effect lasts until the target rolls a Reflex save or until the start of your turn, whichever comes first.
