Special Abilities

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A slayer is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, as well as with light armor, medium armor, and shields (except tower shields).

Studied Target: A slayer can study an opponent he can see as a move action. The slayer then gains a +1 bonus on Bluff, Knowledge, Perception, Sense Motive, and Survival checks attempted against that opponent, and a +1 bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against it. The DCs of slayer class abilities against that opponent increase by 1. A slayer can only maintain these bonuses against one opponent at a time; these bonuses remain in effect until either the opponent is dead or the slayer studies a new target.

If a slayer deals sneak attack damage to a target, he can study that target as an immediate action, allowing him to apply his studied target bonuses against that target (including to the normal weapon damage roll).

At 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th levels, the bonuses on weapon attack rolls, damage rolls, and skill checks and to slayer DCs against a studied target increase by 1. In addition, at each such interval, the slayer is able to maintain these bonuses against an additional studied target at the same time. The slayer may discard this connection to a studied target as a free action, allowing him to study another target in its place.

At 7th level, a slayer can study an opponent as a move or swift action.

Track: A slayer adds 1/2 his level (minimum 1) to Survival skill checks made to follow tracks.

Slayer Talent: Trapfinding. The slayer gains Disable Device as a class skill. The slayer also gains the trapfinding and trap sense rogue abilities, using his slayer level as his effective rogue level.

Sneak Attack: At 3rd level, if a slayer catches an opponent unable to defend itself effectively from his attack, he can strike a vital spot for extra damage. The slayer’s attack deals extra damage anytime his target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the slayer flanks his target. This additional damage is 1d6 at 3rd level, and increases by 1d6 every 3 levels thereafter. Should the slayer score a critical hit with a sneak attack, this additional damage is not multiplied. Ranged attacks can count as sneak attacks only if the target is within 30 feet.

With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or unarmed strike), a slayer can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. He cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak attack, not even with the usual –4 penalty.

The slayer must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A slayer cannot use sneak attack while striking a creature with concealment.

Slayer Talent: Ranger Combat Style. Two weapon fighting feat.

--------------------

The man before you stands a whisker under 6 feet tall. Numerous faded scars adorn his face, accentuating the intensity of his piercing green eyes. His shaven head is covered with a few days’ worth of stubble, matching the scratchy beginnings of a beard on his face. His battered coat of brown studded leather is scratched and torn in places, yet it looks well-oiled and cared for. A pair of well-worn curved knives are sheathed on his left hip, easily within reach of his practiced hands.

An urchin by birth, Cassius spent his youth scrounging for foodscraps and loose coin at the bottom of unattended pockets. The streets of Baldur’s Gate were unforgiving, especially under the watchful eye of the Flaming Fist. The boy survived, thrived even, until his early teenage years. A careless attempt to pick the pockets of a savvy mercenary almost resulted in a long and probably fatal sentence to the stockades. It just so happened that the pocket where Cassius’ fingers landed belonged to one Flarghin Ironstone.

Flarghin happened to be in a good mood, decided to settle the matter with this pitiful urchin himself rather than involve the Flaming Fist. He offered the wretched child a job, and with it a chance to turn fate in his favour. Begrudgingly, Cassius accepted. He became a valuable member of Flarghin’s band for a time, his deft hand skilled at disabling traps and picking locks, and in return he was taught the fundamentals of fighting. Indeed, by the time the pair parted ways almost two years later Cassius had well and truly grown into a fine young adventurer.

He continued to work as a sellsword, travelling from the Sword Coast through the savage frontiers and beyond. The money was good, yet Cassius always managed to find ways to spend it. His debts amassed from a frivolous lifestyle had begun to add up, and when he received the letter from his dear old friend it was as if the gods themselves had reached out to lend a hand. Without hesitation, Cassius packed what he had and departed for Damara.
