Weapon Familiarity: Proficient with battleaxes, heavy picks, warhammers, and treat any weapon with "dwarven" in the name as a martial weapon. Class Features:
Weapon Proficiency: All simple and martial weapons, battleaxes, heavy picks, warhammers, and any weapon with "dwarven" in the name Armor Proficiency: All armor and shields (including tower shields) Bonus Feats: Gain 3 combat feats for which you meet the prerequisites. Bravery: Gain +1 on Will saves against fear. Armor Training: Reduce armor check penalty by 1 and increase max DEX bonus by 1 for armor you are wearing. Martial Flexibility: Up to (3 + fighter level/2) times per day, you can use a move action to gain the benefit of a combat feat you don't possess; this effect lasts for 1 minute. You must meet the chosen feat's prerequisites. You can use this ability again before the duration expires to replace your previously chosen combat feat with another choice. If a combat feat has a daily use limitation (e.g. Stunning Fist), any uses of that combat feat while using this ability count toward that feat's daily limit. At higher levels, when you gain multiple feats using this ability, you can use those feats to meet the prerequisites of other feats you gain with this ability. Doing so means you cannot replace a feat currently fulfilling another's prerequisite without also replacing those feats that require it. Each individual feat selected counts toward your daily use of this ability. At 9th level, you can use this ability to gain the benefit of two combat feats at the same time; you can select one feat as a swift action, or two as a move action. At 14th level, you can use this ability to gain the benefit of three combat feats at the same time; you can select one feat as a free action, two as a swift action, or three as a move action. At 17th level, you can use this ability to gain the benefit of one combat feat as an immediate action or three combat feats as a swift action. At 20th level, you can use this ability to gain the benefit of any number of combat feats as a swift action. BAB +5 Base Fort +4 Base Ref +1 Base Will +1 Traits:
Pattern Seeker (Campaign: Hell's Rebels): Gain +1 trait bonus to Perception checks, and Perception is always a class skill for you. Increase the save DC of any illusion (pattern) spell you cast by 1, and gain a +1 trait bonus on all saving throws against illusion effects. History of Heresy (Basic: Faith): Gain +1 trait bonus on all saving throws made against divine spells. Feats:
Divine Defiance: Gain +2 on saving throws against divine spells and the spell-like abilities granted by levels in a divine casting class. In certain circumstances, some outsiders and creatures of other types may have a strong connection to a specific deity they work for as agents or servants. These creatures' spells and spell-like abilities should likewise be affected by this feat, regardless of the creature's planar origins or sources of magical power, subject to the GM's discretion. Weapon Focus (axe): Gain +1 bonus on all attack rolls you make using weapons in the axe weapon group. Iron Will: Will +2. Shield Focus (heavy shield): Increase the AC bonus granted by any shield you are using by 1.

You can only choose to use this feat when you declare that you are making an attack or full-attack action with a melee weapon. The effects of this feat last until your next turn. Dodge bonuses stack with each other, unlike most types of bonuses. Dwarven Hatred Style: Gain +2 bonus to attacks and weapon damage against humanoid (orc or goblin) creatures. ------------ Role-playing / Backstory ------------ Personality:
Carson is polite, though intense (he would readily admit this). He is a warrior first and foremost, carrying himself like a consummate professional - albeit one whose profession is the efficient execution of violence.
Although he is certainly imposing, he is not entirely unapproachable. He has a love of puzzles and games, a habit which began with hundreds of evenings and watches spent dicing (as soldiers often do). He soon became interested in games of chance of all kinds, then became aware of the predictability of such games, and ultimately found himself intrigued by visual and numerical patterns in general. He will often grow silent on long marches, until he pipes up with some revelation and you realize he's been working on some sort of puzzle the whole time. As far as what he brings to the team, he is dedicated, seasoned, capable, and although he is not a native of Kintargo, the fervor with which he works to see Barzillai's tyrannical power grab overturned is overshadowed only by that of single-minded Hellknights. Yet you can tell it doesn't come from anger, exactly - he pursues it so diligently because it's just the right thing to do. With the GM's permission and cooperation, he also potentially brings a different set of NPCs and dynamics to the story as a new faction supporting Kintargo's rebellion presents itself.
