Base Atk +6; CMB +10/+13 Dex; CMD 25 Feats L1: Breadth of Experience, Fighter: Elven Battle Training
Breadth of Experience
Prerequisites: Dwarf, elf, or gnome; 100+ years old. Benefit: You get a +2 bonus on all Knowledge and Profession skill checks, and can make checks with those skills untrained. Combat Expertise (Combat)
Prerequisite: Int 13. Benefit: You can choose to take a –1 penalty on melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +1 dodge bonus to your Armor Class. When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every +4 thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the dodge bonus increases by +1. You can only choose to use this feat when you declare that you are making an attack or a full-attack action with a melee weapon. The effects of this feat last until your next turn. Combat Reflexes (Combat)
Benefit: You may make a number of additional attacks of opportunity per round equal to your Dexterity bonus. With this feat, you may also make attacks of opportunity while flat-footed. Normal: A character without this feat can make only one attack of opportunity per round and can’t make attacks of opportunity while flat-footed. Special: The Combat Reflexes feat does not allow a rogue to use her opportunist ability more than once per round. Elven Battle Training (Combat, Elf)
Prerequisites: Base attack bonus +1, elf. Benefit: You have received special training with traditional elven weapons (longbows, composite longbows, longswords, rapiers, shortbows, composite shortbows, and any weapon with the word “elven” in its name). You receive a +2 bonus to your CMD against disarm and sunder maneuvers directed at one of these weapons you are wielding. In addition, if you are wielding one of these melee weapons, you may make an additional attack of opportunity each round (this bonus stacks with Combat Reflexes). Weapon Finesse (Combat)
Benefit: With a light weapon, elven curve blade, rapier, whip, or spiked chain made for a creature of your size category, you may use your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls. If you carry a shield, its armor check penalty applies to your attack rolls. Special: Natural weapons are considered light weapons.
If I have Weapon Finesse, can I apply my Dex bonus to my combat maneuver checks instead of my Strength bonus? It depends on what combat maneuver you’re attempting. Disarm, sunder, and trip are normally the only kinds of combat maneuvers in which you’re actually using a weapon to perform the maneuver, and therefore the weapon’s bonuses apply to the roll. Therefore, if you’re attempting a disarm, sunder, or trip maneuver, you can apply your Dex bonus instead of your Str mod on the combat maneuver check (assuming you’re using a finessable weapon, of course). For other combat maneuvers, you use the normal rule for determining CMB ( Str instead of Dex). The Agile Maneuvers feat applies to all combat maneuvers, not just disarm, sunder, and trip, so it is still a useful option for a Dex-based creature that uses combat maneuvers. Traits
Student of Philosophy - Social
Benefit(s): You can use your Intelligence modifier in place of your Charisma modifier on Diplomacy checks to persuade others and on Bluff checks to convince others that a lie is true. (This trait does not affect Diplomacy checks to gather information or Bluff checks to feint in combat). Warrior of Old - Race
Benefit: You gain a +2 trait bonus on initiative checks. Story Traits: Gelver's Moves, Smith's Insight Gelver's Moves

Languages
Special Qualities Elven Immunities: Elves are immune to magic sleep effects and gain a +2 racial saving throw bonus against enchantment spells and effects. Low-Light Vision: Elves can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light. Blended View (2 RP): Prerequisite(s): low-light vision. Half-drow whose non-drow parent had low-light vision might be blessed with a legacy of versatile senses. Characters with this trait keep their low-light vision but also gain darkvision to a distance of 60 feet. Elves can take this trait in place of keen senses. Silent Hunter: Elves are renowned for their subtlety and skill. Elves with this racial trait reduce the penalty for using Stealth while moving by 5 and can make Stealth checks while running at a –20 penalty (this number includes the penalty reduction from this racial trait). This racial trait replaces elven magic. Weapon Familiarity: Elves are proficient with longbows (including composite longbows), longswords, rapiers, and shortbows (including composite shortbows), and treat any weapon with the word “elven” in its name as a martial weapon.

The Scholastic ability replaces the lore warden’s proficiency with medium armor, heavy armor, and shields. Gelver's Moves: Tower Shield Proficiency. Bonus Feats
Upon reaching 4th level, and every four levels thereafter (8th, 12th, and so on), a fighter can choose to learn a new bonus feat in place of a bonus feat he has already learned. In effect, the fighter loses the bonus feat in exchange for the new one. The old feat cannot be one that was used as a prerequisite for another feat, prestige class, or other ability. A fighter can only change one feat at any given level and must choose whether or not to swap the feat at the time he gains a new bonus feat for the level. Scholastic (Ex)
This ability replaces the lore warden’s proficiency with medium armor, heavy armor, and shields. Expertise (Ex)
This ability replaces bravery 1. Maneuver Mastery (Ex)
This ability replaces armor training 1. Martial Flexibility (Ex)
The martial master can use this ability again before the duration expires in order to replace the previous combat feat with another choice. If a combat feat has a daily use limitation (such as Stunning Fist), any uses of that combat feat while using this ability count toward that feat’s daily limit. At later levels, when he gains multiple feats through this ability, the martial master can use those feats to meet the prerequisites of other feats he gains with this ability. Doing so means he cannot replace a feat currently fulfilling another’s prerequisite without also replacing those feats that require it. Each individual feat selected counts toward his daily uses of this ability. At 9th level, a martial master can use this ability to gain the benefit of two combat feats at the same time. He can select one feat as a swift action or two feats as a move action. At 14th level, a martial master can use this ability to gain the benefit of three combat feats at the same time. He can select one feat as a free action, two feats as a swift action, or three feats as a move action. At 17th level, a martial master 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, a martial master can use this ability to gain the benefit of any number of combat feats as a swift action. This ability replaces weapon training and weapon mastery. Bravery (Ex)
Know Thy Enemy (Ex)
This ability replaces armor training 2. Future Class Features from Archetype
Hair’s Breadth (Ex) At 11th level, a lore warden can attempt an Acrobatics check as an immediate action to negate a confirmation role for a critical hit. The critical hit confirmation is negated (though the attack still hits and deals normal damage) if the Acrobatics check is greater than the opponent’s confirmation roll. This ability replaces armor training 3.
At 14th level, a lore warden can use his Know Thy Enemy ability as a swift action. This ability replaces armor training 4.
At 19th level, a lore warden can automatically confirm a critical hit once per round when he threatens a critical hit. This ability replaces armor mastery. Appearance:
A slender 6' 1" in height, Talathel has much darker pupils than most of his people. A cool, aloof gaze peers out at the world from below his flowing golden hair and pale skin. Personality:
Talathel can come across as aloof or uncaring. Nothing could be further from the truth, though he expresses it poorly. He is keenly interested in the world around him, but his focused interest can alienate others. For those who can appreciate his skills, he can be a valuable ally. And though he is loathe to admit it, he does grow lonely. Background Notes:
130 years old, Talathel is a consummate student. He delved deeply into elven martial traditions and battle lore in order to perfect his understanding of weaponry. His obsessive focus alienated him from many of his kin, even as they acknowledged his superb potential. There were dark rumours that drow blood tainted the Rhuiren family tree, and Talathel was an expression of that taint. He eventually decided to leave, and prove himself once and for all. In the ultimate challenge of martial spirit and knowledge: Rappan Uthak. |
