Is this feat or a trait?

Insignifcant: When you use the withdraw action you do not take AoO for the first 2 squares you move.


Id call it a trait, maybe reduce it to 1 square

If it was just one square it really would be insignificant ;-)

Standard withdraw action the first square you do not take AoO.

Withdraw
Withdrawing from melee combat is a full-round action. When you withdraw, you can move up to double your speed. The square you start out in is not considered threatened by any opponent you can see, and therefore visible enemies do not get attacks of opportunity against you when you move from that square. Invisible enemies still get attacks of opportunity against you, and you can't withdraw from combat if you're blinded. You can't take a 5-foot step during the same round in which you withdraw.

If, during the process of withdrawing, you move out of a threatened square (other than the one you started in), enemies get attacks of opportunity as normal.

You may not withdraw using a form of movement for which you don't have a listed speed.

Note that despite the name of this action, you don't actually have to leave combat entirely.

Restricted Withdraw: If you are limited to taking only a standard action each round you can withdraw as a standard action. In this case, you may move up to your speed.


Seems like a trait. Not good enough for a feat, and very situational, but neat. (Better than a lot of traits out there, honestly.)


TRAIT

For such a spectacularly good response, I think you should be forgiven. :)
