Your natural empathy stretches across the world of nature.
Prerequisites: Knowledge (nature) 5 ranks, wild empathy class feature.
Benefit: You gain a +2 insight bonus on wild empathy checks, and you may use wild empathy to duplicate an Intimidate check rather than a Diplomacy check. In addition, choose one of the following kinds of creatures: elementals, fey, lycanthropes, plants, or vermin. You may influence creatures of that type with wild empathy, if their Intelligence score is 1 or 2, or they do not possess an Intelligence score. Once you choose the type of creature, it cannot be changed.
Special: You may select this feat more than once. Each time, you may choose an additional creature type to influence.
The elemental, fey, an lycanthrope options are complete traps because there are zero fey, lycanthropes, or elementals with int scores low enough to be effected.

Recommended fix:
"You may influence creatures of that type with wild empathy, if their Intelligence score is 1 or 2, or they do not possess an Intelligence score."
Changed to:
"You may influence creatures of that type with wild empathy. If their intelligence score is greater than 2, you take a -2 penalty."
Mirrors the Magical Beasts penalty in the main Wild Empathy ability.
